While the use of steroids and performance-enhancing drugs can surely make a difference in an individual’s physique, it goes without saying that drugs can never replace a good diet, intense training, or the natural genetics of a person. If a person is not following the basics of bodybuilding—a good diet and a proper training regimen—no drugs can magically help them achieve their dream physique.
Despite being open about her steroid usage, fitness creator and internet sensation, Vladislava Galagan has been receiving a lot of messages and comments from people assuming that her astounding physique is a result of just steroids. Galagan recently responded to one of the comments on her recent Instagram post and made the point that more than just steroids go into having a good physique.

Recently, Galagan uploaded an Instagram reel in which she described and demonstrated the three exercises she does to have an “outstanding V-Taper.” On the post, she got numerous comments. While replying to a comment from a person accusing her of using drugs, Galagan explained that due to genetic differences, it is much more difficult for a woman to build muscle compared to a man because of differences in testosterone levels. “An average man can get to my physique without any external help. You have all the necessary hormones as a male to perform well in the gym and get that muscle mass I have,” Galagan wrote.

Being a professional bodybuilder, Galagan understands what it takes to be a professional bodybuilder. She further explained that gaining muscle requires a high level of testosterone, which is not present in females. She pointed out, “Then you’ll need more than your own test, just because you won’t keep up with 6 days workout and every day cardio sessions.”

“Roids help you keep going, but do not miraculously grow muscles from 3-4 days workout and shi**y diet,” Galagan wrote.
