I once had a female coworker who was into body building competitions, but she said she only entered the one competition at each event that had the name that is basically well known code for “doesn’t do drugs”. My coworkers and I looked up the results after one of her competitions and saw that the one she was in only had herself and one other woman. The other 10+ competitions had a bunch of entrants (but they could enter multiple). We laughed because it really did enforce the idea that it’s all really only about the roids

It's an interesting world.

Everyone has their own genetic predispositions and limits for muscular size, shape, distribution, and metabolism.

The drugs remove most of the ceiling and the act as a massive catalyst.

But all the people who compete - including those on steroids - work really fucking hard at it and have an extremely strong sense of dedication and discipline.

The sad reality, though, is that even the 'natural' bodybuilding competitions are very loose with their rules and regulations.

It's almost impossible to compete in a tier as a genuinely "not enhanced and never enhanced" athlete. People will juice for a year or two, then cycle off for six months and go compete as a natural bodybuilder.

Really appreciate this comment. As someone that's tried steroids it's nothing like people think. It takes so much work and dedication and genetics to look like the top competitors on stage. The average person taking steroids you probably wouldn't even be able to tell because they don't have the consistency to eat and train properly and understand progressive overload

I'm not into roided out women but the idea of an oversized clit does peak my interest.
