If you really wanted to know the difference in muscle growth between natural and enhanced bodybuilding, then you should read this blog.




Know About Anabolic Steroids?

Anabolic steroids are man-made substances that have identical effects to testosterone in the body. They speed up recovery between workouts, boost fat loss, and increase strength and muscle growth.

While testosterone is the most popular steroid, here are some other often-used variations:

·         Anadrol
·         Deca-Durabolin
·         Dianabol
·         Equipoise
·         Oxandrin
·         Winstrol

Besides increasing musclegrowth directly, steroids also speed up gains indirectly. This is because steroids influence the psyche. Steroids carry various short-term risks, such as liver toxicity, high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol, acne, lowered sperm count, and testicular shrinkage, long-term side effects, such as liver disease, male-pattern baldness, heart dysfunction, and gynecomastia.


A 1989 study indicates that among competitive bodybuilders, 54%of males and 10% of females use steroids on a regular basis. A study published in The Physician and Sports medicine estimate that “at least 90% of the male professional bodybuilders and about 80% of the women currently use steroids.

Know How Steroids are Effective?
You see, steroids don't directly make you stronger. They directly make you bigger. They cause your muscles to synthesize more protein, but there's more to strength than muscle protein accretion. There is a relationship between “bigger” and “stronger” (obviously).

Many bodybuilders claim thatsteroids don’t benefit muscle growth as much as everyone thinks. Others believe that it’s impossible to sport a decent amount of muscle mass without juicing.

The diet of each man – calorie intake, protein intake, and micronutrient intake – were standardized based on body weight, and these nutrition variables were adjusted every two weeks based on body weight changes.

Here’s what happened after ten weeks:

1.       (natural,no exercise) saw no significant changes in muscle mass and strength.
2.       (steroids,no exercise) gained, on average, seven pounds of muscle.
3.       (naturalwith exercise) gained, on average, four pounds of muscle
4.       (steroidswith exercise) gained, on average, thirteen pounds of muscle.

Know How Much Muscle Can You Build Naturally?
·         Yournatural hormonal levels: If you naturally have high testosterone levels, you can build more muscle than those who’re less gifted.

·         Yourheight and bone structure: If you’re naturally large-structured, you have the potential to build more and larger muscles than those who are shorter and have a smaller frame.

·         Yourdedication: Most people never come close to their genetic potential because they don’t eat and train properly or because they give up before reaching their genetic limit.

How to Tell if a Bodybuilder Uses or Has Used Steroids?

It’s easy. Everyone who’s bigger than you… stronger than you… leaner than you… makes more money than you… and has a hotter girlfriend is on steroids – period! At least, that’s how the average gym bro thinks.

In truth, however, it’s hard to tell if someone is on steroids, although some clues can give it away. If, as a natural bodybuilder, you compare your progress and appearance to those of enhanced bodybuilders, you’re setting yourself up for frustration.

Certain physiques just aren’t attainable as a natural bodybuilder, no matter how hard and smart you exercise and how on-point your diet is. So, don’t compare your results to those of enhanced lifters. Instead, focus on your own progress and ensure that you get a little bit better each day.

While there’s a lot of misinformation on the difference between natural and enhanced bodybuilding, you now know better how steroids influence muscle growth. For instance, you’ve learned that much progress is possible as a drug-free lifter, but that if you want a physique like Arnold in his prime, you’ll need steroids. That’s just the way it is.

It’s up to you whatever path you choose. No one should judge you for deciding to stay natural or not. But at least you now have a better view of your muscle building potential.
