100% certainty PEDS being used check list: 1. Is it a competition? Check 2. Is money involved? Check 3. Does the competition involve any or all of the following (strength, endurance and/or speed)? Check 4. Are the competitors human? Check
People are just casually blasting PED’s for recreational bodybuilding at any run of the mill globe gym.Its crazier not to believe sports are rampant in it.
Pinheiro is a 41 year old female who's carrying more lean mass than elite male athletes who are at least a decade younger than she is. Not suspicious at all according to CrossFit.
As someone that knows this industry and has since I’ve been 14 years old going on 4 decades of experience in bodybuilding, elite fitness, and crossfit. It’s entire possible (not accusing) that the compounds that have the shorter half lives like a anavar,anadrol, winstrol, most orals (9 hours), tbol (16 hours), testosterone returns to baseline in a matter of 2-3 weeks running it as high as 600mg/wk are being used by many. So a lot of athletes absolutely “can” run these up until a few weeks of the competition and then just stop and test perfectly clear of anything. Personally I’d stay away from compounds like deca or EQ, but that’s a different story. Now, there is also the fact that while cosmetically and performance wise they look and perform superior that doesn’t mean they’ll succeed. You’ve got people that are unequivocally NOT on PED’s like a Leahy (hiller’s boy), or Colton Mertens (and others) and you can easily tell based upon their muscular development they are completely PED free, and athletes around the world can’t come close to their level of athleticism. Every single person on that list does NOT lead me to think they are actively, nor use enough compounds, to make a difference. The out of nowhere athlete is where you can question. You can use steroids to raise your baseline for years and then entire the CrossFit world out of nowhere and be completely PED free and JACKED. So it’s not a gaurantee you’ll succeed being on them, in fact it can make you slower as you’re attempting to move muscle you wouldn’t otherwise have it can have the opposite effect of what you planned for. Sure you’ll be strong, stronger than most, but that doesn’t always translate to success when your blood pressure is super high and your endurance drops because you’re not used to the increase in red blood cell and oxygen. Then you’ve got guys like Noah/Vellner/Fikowski that are a brick shit house sub 10% body fat they just have good genetics. But if you find the super vascular, grainy unhealthy skin, that is generally a decent “sign”…..the skin tells quite a story and I’m not even talking acne, just unhealthy red/brown tan grainy looking skin, just not a great look (fyi, Noah and others don’t have that skin, nor the sharp features except Brent, and that leads to me to believe he’s just your typical genetic freak athlete, very talented, world class athletes). I’ll tell ya, some of these Brazilian athletes….my god Pinheiro. It’s just like ok, let’s try to be a little bit more discrete please. Some of the women, for sure, that are showing incredibly noticeable signs of androgenic effects (the voice and the facial skeletal features and shoulder upper pec chest region and thick block abs) ….. I’ve seen so many female bodybuilders I can pick it out in a crowd….that chick is on 5-10mg var, that chick is on NPP, clen, dianabol, test. It’s just so noticeable next to another elite athlete not on the same compounds. Danielle Brandon is interesting because she’s got the androgenic look, but she may just be a freak athlete with higher totals than normal. Physiologically women are the MOST adrogrenic on earth, meaning that SMALL amount of PED’s have DRAMATIC effects on females. She is an outlier, she might just be a freak with higher androgenic qualities because she has more testosterone thus more estrogen running through her…..but has also never won, so again, who knows. Toomey, no, almost zero androgenic qualities in my opinion, she is a freak among freaks and natural. The other 3 below her and Haley is interesting because of the facial bone features. That’s all i got to say about that. Ciao!
I think after Lance Armstrong, most people have grown severely distrustful to appearances. He outed the entire sport for participating in some form of PED utilization. He also managed to elude “testing” for all the years he won….basically hinting that the man who reigns on top evades the best…or simply gets special treatment. We’ve even seen it in some Olympic sports where the specific organization/committee for a given sport is massively corrupt and sells gold medals or will target you to the 3rd party anti doping agencies. Money and vanity will always lead to a high level of cheating and corruption. Looks are a hint, but don’t always show the full picture. It’s difficult to believe that someone can naturally compete against someone likely blasting on all forms of advantageous practices. There isn’t a sport where PED’s wouldn’t be useful. The whole “PED’s won’t help you all that much in CrossFit” is a fat load of propaganda. No person would out themselves for PED use when they know it’s unethical and cut their career/name short. 99% of them are doing something, and none of them will publically disclose it….although some have tried. Some have even gone as far to say that top athletes are given exemption because of the fear that sponsors would pull out their funding. The sport relies on sponsors, so they will do everything in their power to appease their sponsor. We see shenanigans like this all the time, for instance the stock market, where fancy elaborate book keeping is made to look like a company is healthier or more profitable than it actually is to prevent the risk of board members being fired or asked to step down/voted out. Its fraud and its rampant.
I do crossfit 60 to 90 minutes, 4 times a week. My nutrition and supplements are top notch. There is 0 chance in hell a) i could work out multiple times per day b) compete in multiple events per day and have a chance to recover or even workout everyday as these people claim and not be on PEDs. And before i reach the "top gene pool" argument - fuck that. Everyone in my gym that competes on somewhat reasonable level is minimum on testosterone and it goes on from there.
All 80 are doping in one way or another. Games levels CrossFit training takes a toll on your body and peds are for sure used in recovery. Change my mind.
Yeah your most likely right these people are not some sort of super human, they are something, If someone believes they are 100% natural they better go find the gold at the end of a rainbow
@@andrealarkin939 Before the internet I almost failed a Junior-yr essay on grammar because I was too stubborn to believe my hand-written spelling of "recieve" was incorrect. I got a C on grammar, rewriting the entire paper two more times to get completion points. I earned my first B in high school because of the mistake.
Amazed Emma Lawson didn’t make the most likely list her shoulders and traps are super impressive (not saying I thinks she’s on) crazy not even 3 people thought of her.
Brooke Wells is achingly dull as a personality. I have no idea how she was able to come up with enough content for her ghost writer to complete a book.
That book was absolute garbage, coming from someone who pre-ordered and was excited to read it since I dislocated my own elbow some years back. The writing was poor and the whole story was her WHINING about flying around to the nations top surgeons and physical therapists and recovering in freaking Malibu
I was with the top 4 of the Least Likely Men list at the WCC Semis after their final event, since I was a drug test chaperone for one of the qualifying men and had to stay with them for a good hour. From what I saw (in my personal opinion, and I've been on TRT for a few years and seen some real juice monkeys at some local comps) their physique and attitudes definitely have me believing they are natty for sure.
PAT VELLNER? Bahahahahaha! Look I love the dude, but he's HUGE compared to his first couple of seasons, when he was in his 20's and already one of the fittest people on Earth. And does anyone know who Haley Adams trainer usually trains???
TRT has become so widely accepted and normalized that athletes that are taking it to keep their numbers at the high end of normal don't think they're doping.
I am surprised to not see Hattie Kanyo on the list after her performance at Semis. All the commentators surprised reactions gave me Nicholas Joyal flashbacks... She would be my number 1 pick to pop. If i were Olivia Kersteder, I'd keep an eye out 🙂
As a steroid using gym goer, im happy to see people becoming more aware of PED usage and not just ignorantly believing that all of these athletes are natural despite it being pretty obvious that some are using gear
Tia is a former/ Olympic athlete, wouldn’t it be hard for her to use PEDs? (Actual question, I am not knowledgable on testing within the Olympics and how is compares to CrossFit).
There’s at least one woman in the European field that has put on a significant amount of bulk over the last 12-18months… used to consistently be on or outside the cut-line now being raved about as “really improved” and lauded for her performance in France…. it’s like folk aren’t even pretending any more… 😢
Alex Gazan tops the charts for me. Was at WZA and she looked natty. Then I was at west coast classic and she looked entirely different. Therefore, she gets my vote
Would be nice if there were more photos when you name these people, because new people to crossfit such as myself have no idea what you're trying to reference
Probably both are on peds, but if Kalyan was as know as Gui, he would be way higher in that list. If i had to choose one as the most likely i would choose Kalyan over Gui anytime. Gui's at least had been to the games since he was 17, Kalyan just appearead "out of nowhere" last years.
Hilarious and very entertaining. I have always wondered about Kari Pearce 🤨. If we are to compare those females that regularly got accused of being natty, why not her? 🇺🇸 sweetheart perhaps?
In sports no matter what the sport is, if you're making a living outta it, the chances that you're natty are almost big ass ZERO, on the other hand, if youre just an amateur yes, you could be natural!
You guys are insane, Chandler Smith undoubtedly uses, and thats most certainly not a compliment. He could walk onto a freakin open untested bodybuilding competition and noone would bat an eyelid. Its so obvious its laughable
Brent fikowki has been in the game so long. Slowly getting better and only slightly bigger and stronger after each year. How people voted pat over Brent blows my mind
Most people in Europe don’t folllow your channel because is in English, and fast speaking… the votes are most from english-speaking countries in my opinion, so many American athletes
99% of them are using PEDs. Just go look at winners of the CF Games from 2007 to 2010 and compare them to anyone in the top 10 in the last 10 years. Night and day difference. Not to mention you will never convince me that a 3 day competition consisting of multiple events per day that has athletes crumpling to the ground afterwards yet continuing to perform at world class levels, is even remotely possible without chemical assistance.
Jokes aside, remember when Russia was disqualified from the Olympics because Russian antidoping agency was proven to fund, organise and cover PEDs usage by their athletes? No wonder Roman got a high spot on the list.
