so what were the judges, judging before arnie competed? the era of when he was around mdiea was taking off globally so the combination of the two probably contributed to the attatudes in media circles of what people should asscertain to in there opinion.

agree but it's a long story
Steroids were invented to help unhealthy and uderdeveloped people .
Now 20 year old kid can't f**k a girl without viagra beacause abusing stereoids .
Thigs gone wrong through the years .

Better look back where and when everything has started . Some people made millions and Arnie became the face of the muscle fashion . Good marketing .

It is what the media has done to society making it appear that the social norm it to have a six pack and decent size guns. THAT is what turns average people to using gear, just like it's the reason why young girls starve themselves to try and attain an unattainable waif life body

Yet despite all this media pressure we are still sleep walking into an obesity epidemic.

Totaly agree with this, but to blame one man is harsh as there alot more to this than just lets blame arnie.

True but if it wasn't Arnie it would be someone else . Weider brothers needed someone to promote and populate bodybulding culture . Olympia reign , Holywood movies , Pumping iron .. perfect business strategy .

Thing said:
yes but to just blame Anrie for being in the right place at the right time is unfair.
what would you have done being in his position?

AdamT said:I think steroids can be used safely. Unfortunately though a lot of guys just jump on the wagon and take anything giving to them without any knowledge. I know a young fella in my gym supposedly used a full bottle of test on one day with hardly any cycle experience. He ended up in hospital, fool!
