Is it possible to get a muscular body without steroids or hormones and stuff? I hear so often that male bodybuilders look that way because they are so loaded up on muscle enhancers. I would like to join an amateur bodybuilding gym but I don't want to if the only way to look that good is to take steroids and creatine.

1. Also, are there any official bodybuilding competitions where competitors are strictly screened and not permitted if they have taken such substances?
2. Finally, if I want to get that fit, does anyone know how often I should train and for how long? (By the way, I don't want to look like a bulging gorilla, just athletic and muscular…the key word here is "amateur").
3. Personal Trainer
4. Yes, natural is possible and a great way to stay in shape. I lifted for years regularly and maintained a great physique, and I've never even seen an anabolic steroid.

   However, in competitive sports of any kind steroids are a very common tool for gaining an edge. And people are always working on ways to work around testing. If you want to be muscular and strong, you can do it naturally. If you want to compete, it will be very hard without steroids.

   Some years ago several professional American football players came out to 'expose' the rampant use of steroids in their sport. When asked if a person could do well in sports without steroids, one player said something that says it best. "Can you get big and strong without steroids, yes, of course. Can you get AS big and strong without steroids, no."

5. yes, it is possible. By giving the muscles the work they need, they would get stronger and toned up. One can do this without any external things like steroids etc.,
6. send me an email through my 360 page I am a body builder who uses natural methods to attain my build

   Longjack is a supplement that increases your bodies natural production of testosterone which helps you gain muscles and helps your body repair faster. Also eating an organic diet helps because the nutrition is better in organic foods. Drink only distilled water or organic whole milk, organic juices are also good in moderation.

7. Sure NPC class boybuilders are strictly drug tested. IFBB bodybuilders those big freaky guys you see are not tested
8. Yeah, it's called working out. Do you want muscle the easy way (steroids) or the hard way (working out constantly)?
9. Yes, there is a such thing as "natural" body building and you can do it without steroids and other supplements. Make sure you get plenty of protein in your diet. This helps with muscle growth. I would limit cardio to 3 times a week for about 30 minutes a day, and weight training 3-5 times a week for about 30-45 minutes a day, training different muscle groups. Allow 24-48 hours between working the same muscle group. Focus on lifting heavy…low reps, high weight. Lift heavy enough to where you lift between 6-10 reps and where you have to really push to get in the last 3 reps. Good luck!
10. Here is an ebook written by a natural bodybuilder that might help.
