They clearly have never done a proper cut yet.  |
I think this says a lot:

Not wanting to drag other people's names into this, a few years ago a world champion drug-free bodybuilder mentioned to me that he hadn't made further gains in a long time and he thought he might be reaching his genetic limit. Of course, having the mentality of a champion, he contradicted himself a few moments later and said he would compete next year bigger than ever. I didn't think it was wise to tell him that statistically it was very unlikely that he'd get any bigger, so I didn't say anything other than, "You've got a great attitude." But he competed a few months ago at the same weight as last year, and not quite as sharp.
I think the main reason many people are not exactly enthusiastic about the equations in my articles is because they don't realize how good a lean physique looks with those measurements. Most people are too fat to show a good physique and don't understand how big a lean 16"-17" arm really is.

Now, I have nothing against AAS use. If it weren't for the legality issue, difficulty in obtaining them, and some undesirable side-effects, I'd still use them. I don't consider it a moral/ethical faux-pas like so many people do.
At the same time, having been on both sides of the fence and not being new to this rodeo, I really find it funny when people want to bullshit me about what's possible for a true bona-fide natural vs. a "natural".
If you want to use, use. Just don't be a bullshitter about it. If you want to stay natural, you'd best learn to accept the limitations that come along with it.
You're not all unique special snowflakes.
