Steroid usage is a major topic in the world of?bodybuilding. In a moderately medically prescribed amount, one can argue that it can do wonders, while if taken too much, it can cause dangerous consequences. Greg Doucette is a bodybuilder who often delves into the world of steroid usage and gives bold opinions on them. IFBB pro Greg Doucette has carved out his career and identity in the fitness world. The Canadian bodybuilding icon has decades of experience in the fields of nutrition and fitness, and he does not shy away from talking about steroid usage. Coach Greg often breaks down the critical health and fitness matters in certain videos about influencers and their opinions on it.

The video starts with Doucette showing the conversation between 4-time Mr. Olympia and IFBB pro-Sarcev. Greg explains why Jay might not be on the side of taking steroids and HRT. This is because he has had an illustrious career and does not want to enhance his body with PEDs anymore. Milos, on the other hand, does not agree and says that testosterone has to be optimized, and if it is below 1000 for men, then it is alarming.
The conversation flowed from there and through the whole ordeal. And Jay and Sarcev did not agree with each other on the matter of taking steroids. At the end of the video by Doucette, he shows Milos talking about natural bodybuilders who abstain from steroids. Sarcev says,?“When we mentioned about the naturals, why naturals are naturals because they are afraid; that?s the only reason. They are afraid.”?So he accused natural bodybuilders of being afraid to take steroids.
Doucette questioned,?“And so, all the natural bodybuilders are you all just scaredy cats?”?He also inquired that maybe natural bodybuilders had a higher moral value or were brought up in a certain moralistic code. Doucette acknowledges the question Sarcev has about bodybuilders being afraid and says,?“I mean, really, it?s a valid question.”?However, ultimately Doucette sides with Jay Cutler and natural bodybuilders to conclude:?“I think they just have values, morals; they just were taught drugs are bad and so on.”?Finally, Milos and Jay agreed to disagree on this topic, and Doucette was also diplomatic about steroid usage since he experienced certain consequences because of them.
Greg Doucette did not regret stopping steroids
The IFBB pro had uploaded four images,?and the former triathlete was?hitting the back double biceps pose. He captioned the post,?“Top left Age 20 142 lbs Natty.”?In the second photo, he showed a major improvement in his conditioning and captioned it,?“Top right age 31 169 lbs Natty.”?The third image was the best, and that image was after he took steroids. Doucette captioned it,?“Bottom right age 41 193.5 lbs Not Natty.”

However, using PEDs took a toll on his body and health, so he stopped using steroids and said,?“Stopped abusing PEDs and lost about 8 lbs of muscle as it?s simply not worth the risk.”?So, it is valid why Greg would side with Jay in the conversation about not taking steroids.
