I was discussing maximum dosages with a participant in the Mr. Olimpia Classic Physique, since he's yet another athlete who claims to take very little. When I mentioned 5 grams for an Open and 3 for Classic Physique, several people got angry, saying they were absurd dosages, cause too high. But it seems to me that many trainers have confirmed this.
 
Chase irons said he was on 5g of test and 18 units of GH.


FWIW I knew a dude who had a garbage response to gear. Ran legitimate stuff. Even went as far as getting shit from the pharmacy. But even on a gram of deca he just didn’t seem to blow up like we thought he would. He had competed natty and had done pretty well locally, worked his ass off and ate meticulously. Yet for the amount of gear he’d run, he never was monstrous or even far beyond looking natural.

Meanwhile my buddy is taking the same GH as me from the same order and his results off 4 units is close to what I’m getting on 7.5
 
Oh and IIRC Dallas McCarver had something like 10g a week worth of testosterone in his bloodwork. His test was 55,000

It's not a broad brush. Guys on the O stage are genetic elites. Many of them don't have to take massive cycles, others do.

I agree...some guys might be on 1.5- 2 grams and some might be pushing 10. All comes down to individual response. But id say 1.5-2 grams minimum imo for a guy at that level...

Justin Harris has discussed how mind blown he was by the shockingly small amount of gear Brandon Curry uses during his preps.

When they were going over his past prep cycles. He asked Brandon to send him the rest of it, lol.

If anybody is genetically blessed and runs small amounts its him...blows my mind hes in his mid 40s
 
I think there is a big difference between what kind of dosages they ran to get that big, and then what it takes to keep it there/prep with.

No doubt those guys are genetically elite, but I think it’s disingenuous to say they don’t take a lot of gear. Maybe now it’s much less, but at some point they had to push it hard.

Definitely elite level genetics. His oldest son is a big time football recruit. He just ran a lasered 4.2 40 time going into his senior year of HS. He'll be playing major college football.

Of course they've all run some big cycles at some point and alot still do.
 
3-5 grams a week isn't a crazy dose for IFBB level talent. Some of these guys are naturally predisposed to higher androgen levels and can handle larger dosages with fewer adverse health effects vs normie population.
 
Seems the best will respond better without higher doses then most. Same as some can eat large amounts of food and digest it. Others can't which is a limiting factor i find.
