Yeah definitely looks like synthol abuse to me. I dont know why people go so overboard with the use of synthol. You can almost always tell when its real muscle or the result of using synthol, and the synthol look gives a very smooth look as apposed to real muscle.

What happens when the effect wears off? Doesnt it leave such an obvious abuser with loose skin?

That shit is absolutely disgusting & I hope they get seriously abused by the other guys at their gym. I can't believe how they allow themselves to be photographed or even compete? And worst still they think they are the shit!

Injecting oil into your muscles cannot be good for you.

I believe the guy competing came last in his class though. Good job.

Greg Valentino is not well respected at all, however in moderation synthol is used by a lot of competitors on competition day.

I have heard stories of taking around 19 jabs of the stuff before walking on stage. Obviously not to the state those two above have taken it

the problem with posting this is the steroid section is that it would go a long way in influencing uninformed people. they would think this is from "roids", when infact its not.

Well my personal opinion is...even if these guys took steroids or some other drug (and it's a bit obvious they did), they still had to bust a gut building that muscle--it doesnt just build itself whilst you inject that in and sit around like a couch potato does it? lol.

I dread to think about their sex lives after competition though. Must have been comotose where that was concerned after cutting whatever it was they were taking...

Well, actually... you're closer than you think! Synthol is kind of the bodybuilding equivalent of silicon implants, so yep - that's pretty much what happens!

The sad thing is that early photos of Greg Valentino show he really DID have a good physique prior to synthol.

What they are using isnt a steriod. Like jono said its just oil, injected into the muscle tissue the muscle literally expands giving the apperance of more muscle tissue when it is really just muscle filled with oil.

You dont actually increase the amount of muscle tissue.

Well my thoughts are that at the end of the day, it's their body and if they want to disrespect it in that way then that's their business. IMO, it could not be as damaging as over dosing on steroids anyway knowing how that affects guys and having seen many friends with prostrate problems.

It amazes me how some guys seem to totally detatch themselves from what damage these types of things can do long term.

It's lack of education IMO.

I feel sorry for the little guy on TV even the other week... being fed crap by his father and them not knowing what was in that concoction. Only time will tell how that will affect his final height and growth and his prostate. I'd like to think his father would not have shoved anything in his shake but it's highly doubtful there wasnt something in it.

He was a very intelligent boy though who new a lot about vitamins and supplements and I was absolutely flabbergasted at the way he talked about that as just a 12 yo. My 13 yo works out at home, but he doesnt have a clue what to eat for the best. He hasnt yet got that far. He has an edge on most other boys as his adrenals cannot make cortisol and we need to give it daily as one dose of dex at the top of the morning. At certain types of day his male hormones are higher than they are for other boys, so technically he can if he so chooses at some point abuse that I guess--or should I say use it to his advantage lol.

I guess the point I tried to make when I first posted though was as you say, some of these guys have awesome physiques that they worked damned hard on before they started using that stuff. It's just greed got the better of them and it shows. Eventually, I feel it will be their undoing because there is nothing in life more important than maintaining health--not even looking good. What they're doing doesnt even LOOK good either, so I think they have completely lost the plot. Most likely doing steroids also if you ask me looking at their heads and the fact there isnt a hair in site there either. Anyone prepared to inject oil into themselves, is more than prepared to inject steroid and WILL have gone that pathway first to boost growth. The oil to me is a last resort kind of thing after the steroid has not quite got them where they want to be.

I agree completely, not synthol. for me personally any thing to do with a pianful oil injection is a no go. no proportions, and the tissue is just as painful to break down. seeing that picture is like watching the "this is your brain on drugs" ad vert involving an unfortuante egg. turned me off synthol completely.

Saying that I would like to make sure that everyone knows, synthol is not a testosterone. they are not at all similar in effects or side effects.

cheers
