The Quadfather Tom Platz Reveals the Ultimate Truth About Ster**ds in Bodybuilding: Don’t Turn Volkswagen Into Ferraris

Performance enhancement drugs have existed since the days of yore and have been the biggest bone of contention in the bodybuilding realm. No one in the bodybuilding community is spared from the ster**ds debate. The use of PEDs started in the arena during the Golden Age of the sport, and even the 7x Mr. Olympia Arnold Schwarzenegger confessed to their use during his prime. However, with the vast expansion of the arena and the burgeoning advent of pharmaceuticals, there has been an uncontrolled rise in PED usage in recent times. However, veteran bodybuilder Tom Platz unravels the immutable truth surrounding ster**ds.

The topics surrounding supplement intake are always a silent talk in the community, given the health risks associated with their consumption. But the Quad father reveals whether it is possible to be a champion naturally.

Tom Platz gets candid about ster**ds

The arena is now dominated by mass monsters, and natural bodybuilding is a thing of the past. Many would agree that it is almost impossible to build such bulky muscles naturally. However, social media has ramped up the debate for a candid talk surrounding ster**ds. However, Platz revealed that champions can’t be made without ster**ds many decades earlier.

“Steroids don’t turn Volkswagens to Ferraris. By no means the drugs makes champions. It’s something else that creates a championship body,” Platz rightfully quipped in one of his interviews during his bodybuilding prime. However, Platz is not far away from reality when it comes to becoming a bodybuilding champion.

The host asked the Quad father, “But without the steroids could you be a champion?” An honest Platz answered, “No, Sir.” His revelation still holds truth in modern times as an iconic bodybuilder who just retired from the competitive arena took a similar stance on ster**ds in bodybuilding.

Iain Valliere sheds light on current bodybuilding competitions

Valliere is known for many things in the arena. He is an IFBB Pro who competed on the Mr. Olympia stage and introduced CBum to the world of bodybuilding. Valliere trained CBum for a very long time before the 5x Mr. Olympia switched to Hany Rambod. However, the icon retired from the sport this year to focus on other aspects of his life.

But he revealed a very intriguing fact about the current bodybuilding sphere. Valliere confessed how a natural bodybuilder can’t win the Olympia in modern times. The retired bodybuilder asserted that no one in men’s open bodybuilding is natural, or natty in gym parlance.

The bodybuilding sport has become more and more competitive with time, and to win the Sandow trophy in the Open category, one has to build a mass monster physique. Natural bodybuilding is not capable of providing such huge results.
