Golden age cycles vs. Cycles of today

[cloudstrife1218]

The difference between cycles back in the golden age of bodybuilding and today's cycles are drastically different. I think it is important for us to look back at what was achieved on the limited knowledge they had, and really how amazing these guys were. I happen to love Arnold Schwarzenegger, so I read a lot about him, and this is something I came across that talks about the difference between cycles when he was in his prime, and today's cycles.

I think the biggest defining factor here is the fact that the shit was totally legal! Lol pharmaceutical grade gear was ripe for the picking. I've read articles that try to claim that ugl test can be 1/3 of the potency of pharmacy grade stuff. However bloated those numbers may be the fact remains I'm quite sure if I got 250 a week from a doctor and 250 a week from unknown ugl guy they're probably gonna be massively different lol

I'm definitely not going to disagree with that one. UGL just isn't reputable for putting out good stuff. Its like any other business. You put out the cheapest stuff so that you can make the most profit.

Yea i mean there's a lot of companies that are or claim or are known to be a step or so below pharm grade but it's kind of hard to know without crazy amounts of testing and comparing

Well boners+acne= legit right? Lol I think that's most of what we assume makes us believe it's legit I mean granted if it was pharm grade I couldn't imagine the potential sides. Walking around with a stiff baby carrot for days!

the gear now is mostly bunk or not what it says it is. I remember when a 10cc vial was a 10 week cycle, and you gained 20+ lbs.
