+ 5 Ronnie natty until 1995

ad

Anyone believe Ronnie was actually natural up to the 95 Olympia? He says after continuously losing his first few years as a pro he went to Flex’s room after some show and asked him about how to get on gear. And flex told him he had a guy who could get him everything he needs. And that was the first time he ever ran gear. Ronnie does have alien genetics but idk. This pic is from the 94 Olympia when he was supposedly still natty.

Anyone know what year tom platz filmed the backstage secrets interviews where they blurred out faces and sort of changed their voices but you could still tell everyone he was interviewing? No doubt Ronnie was one of the people interviewed and laid out his cycle. It had to have been after 92 since Lee priest had his pro card.

If there’s anyone I could believe turned pro and competed on the Olympia stage naturally it would be Ronnie, but it seems unlikely. I don’t see why he would lie about the year he started.

I think during his Powerlifting days before he became a Bodybuilder he was natural as he looked quite different but naturally still strong as hell. You have to ask yourself this though, if he is competing against other guys that are juiced to the gills and he could potentially lose to them because of this - then why wouldn't he be running gear to put him on an even playing field to them? It would be more dumb of him not to than to be running them especially since he wanted to make a career from it. Biggest joke of all of it is how the Police force allowed him to be doing this - Clearly abusing/injecting illegal steroids whilst working for them!!!

What I think would be more believable is Ronnie was doing his own thing until 1995. And that’s when flex introduced him to Chad nichols. And Chad got him on a real drug protocol plus everything else. All of that did happen but I don’t think it was until the prep for the 98 Olympia, not 95.

Or maybe the guy flex hooked him up with got him on the right track; or on a cycle similar to what flex was doing. Ronnie doesn’t know shit about gear or the science of it. He’s a simpleton. So maybe his own protocols sucked and then he got with flexes guy and turned things around. I just can’t believe anyone was on the Olympia stage natty. Even someone with the best genetics in the world like Ronnie.

The police force situation was hilarious. Crazy they let him stay on as a cop. But back then I think alot of cops were on gear. Every one of the police stations in Ronnie’s city had their own gym. So they were pretty serious. They seemed proud to have him.

Press, 90% of the cops under 60 are on gear. It's crazy. They Def get the prescription from the doc. They Def do more than that to though. Lol

So if they have a prescription for some of it are they more likely to get away with it then?

Mikeyt84LINY's picture

I'd assume so. I don't think they ever get tested for that. It's such a grey area. Nobody in this country cares about gear. They do it in the military. Majority of cops are on trt at the minimum. But it's illegal. They really need to change that. People die way more from smoking and drunk driving. And probably more people die from eating red meat. Lol. Hopefully one day. As long as they don't jack up the price which would probably happen. For the taxes. In this oh so wonderful"free" country where your told what you can and cannot put into your body. Feels more like they think i belong to them.

When did he first say it? I mean he's definitely lying. If he first claimed natty years and years ago due to legal concerns maybe? Then he has to stick to the lie later because now he's basically a celebrity and his family is gaining financial security based off the wholesome nature of his image? Idk man. Also Lee Priest lies his ass off to this day about what/when he used. Still love him, he's just full of shit

I saw him say it on Shannon sharpes podcast in 2024. Not sure if that was the first time he made the claim though.

Lee priests cycles are so absurd that I half believe him. For the 97 Olympia he said he was on 500mg of sust, which he dropped 6 weeks out. And 50mg of anadrol ed, winny eod, plus Clen and T3. And he would come off for 3-6 months after. Most of the guys from that era would come off, not cruise. Lee was the only Person tom platz interviewed in backstage secrets that didn’t ask for his face to be blurred. He’s been talking openly about it for 20 years before anyone else really came out and did the same. So idk why he come out and talk about it and then lie his ass off.

I’ve been around genetic freaks so I can believe some of these guys needed very little gear to explode. It’s something you wouldn’t believe unless you’ve seen it up close and personal. My best friend is a genetic freak. At 18 he was 6’2 225lbs shredded and managed to maintain a very lean 225-235lbs all 4 years of college while spending maybe 4 months consistently in the gym, sporadically throughout our time at school. Most nights hed drink 20 beers and eat 1 meal a day around 5 o’clock right before we went out for the night lol. After college he got up to 245 around the same Bf before going through a power lifting phase he managed to get up to 280lbs at probably 14% bf. Still pretty lean. All natural. Never so much as taken a pro hormone. He Really doesn’t understand the first thing about nutrition or exercise science. His family has some pro rugby players in it from England, one uncle ran a sub 4 second mile. Straight generic freaks. He would likely explode on just a little bit of gear. No doubt he could go pro if he dedicated himself to it. So these top bodybuilders probably have even better genetics than him.

I tend to believe Dorian too and he says his bread and butter bulking cycle in the 90s when he was massive was a gram of test, 500mg of deca and 50mg of dbol on and off. Plus up to 8ius of GH. When he was pushing 300+lbs offseason. Contest prep he run 2-3 tren hex amps a week, so 150-225mg of tren a week, plus the other usual stuff at moderate doses. Lot of us on here run more gear than him lol. Cause we have shitty genetics.

I don't believe he was naturalisation his early days. I think he was on normal what you mag call standard gear. Test, dbol mast tren. From what I thought about it was he was introduced to slin and growth, taking him to the next stage of his massive growth.

That’s another interesting point, the GH and specifically slin. I think most of us assumed he got that big from big doses of GH and slin. But he said the only time he used slin was for carb up during prep, never during bulk. I can’t remember what his GH doses were but they weren’t high, I recall like 4-8ius a day. But ya maybe 94 is when he introduced GH.

Dorian also said he didn’t use slin until his last offseason before the 97 Olympia, when he got up to 310lbs, and he said it didn’t do anything good for him. It caused a loss of separation and fine derails. He ran 8ius of GH a day, and for a period of time he ran 15ius 3x a week and he says this is when he made his best progress. I tend to believe Dorian.

But that would mean these massive physiques in the 90s and the huge change from the Lee Haney and the 80s guys were not due to tons of slin, or any at all. Dorian was still a monster from 93-96. So the only new drug was GH. I think it has more to do with the food and the decreased training volume that started in the 90s compared to 70s-80s when the guys would train twice a day 6 days a week. The 90s is also when they started pushing huge amounts of food.

Looks natural to me, anyone who eats their Weetabix every morning can look like that within a year or two of training

Even if he thought he was natty at that time, the supplements that were sold at that time were all laced with anabolic steroids. This is well known and well documented.

irongame427's picture

Plus steroids were not banned controlled substances until 1990. You’d just go to the doctor and get what you needed back then. He could have been doing some of that.

There is no way he’s natty on this photo.
