2020 was a bit different, with gyms shut for a while leaving me doing mostly calisthenics in my garage. Also I shifted from focussing on weight training and got back into running. So instead of 6 days at the gym each week I shifted to 3 days lifting, 3 days running. But I went hard at both.

Not to jump into OP's thread, I'm here to back him.

This is last year, 2 weeks out from show day; I'm 51 yrs old and lifetime natty, no TRT/HRT etc...with piss tests to prove it.




Just because some old fogies look better than some of you, doesn't mean they're on gear.
And, while I take it as a compliment when someone doesn't believe I'm natty, you're also taking away someone's very hard work, knowledge and dedication.




This^^^

And I'm not triggered or busting anyone's balls here. I'm more trying to show you that you can look decent if you get your sh!t together, train hard and get your nutrition/diet knowledge under control.

Carry on
Except OP claims that he eats "mostly like a normal person".

You are dialed in on every area. Bodybuilding is your life (by the looks of it).

And you're probably not even natty.

Also, no one is claiming he is blasting, but both of your physiques at 51 years old is extremely rare. Even for people who have been lifting and dieting seriously for decades.

You should both take the accusations as compliments if you truly are full natty.

Since the 1980s.

But often it wasn’t really the focus. Eg I spent my 50s obsessed with ultramarathon running.

It is far from obvious:

- OP is 82 kg at 179 cm and < 15% body fat
- Claims to not track calories

You can look good natty and lean, but I would argue that OP is "big" as well. If he had a very large frame (thick skeleton) those stats would be more believable, but look at his wrists in the posted pictures. They don't look big at all, so probably average frame at most.

You natty bro?

I’ve trained with some ex Olympic athletes by the way.

One of the very few fitness Youtubers I'll actually watch and respect. He may not look that impressive compared to pro level drug addicts but when he flexes you can see how much quality muscle he's really been able to put on his frame. That's one of the biggest differences I've noticed between naturals and juicebags. Naturals look a lot less impressive in a relaxed state vs. drugged guys who seem to have an almost perpetually flexed/tight look to their muscles.

Why is this so hard to believe for people? 51 is not old for a man. And OP has a great body but I don't see it as something that's really that difficult. Good diet, good training, don't be a dumb fuk and that should be pretty easy esp if you've been lifting for a few decades.

how the fuk did you get the pic in the op with this physique? you're definitely natural but the pic in op 100% makes you look tech'd(at your age)

the other guy defending you though, is 1 trillion % a fake natty. thats without a question.

Pics were all taken same place and time within a few minutes of each other. It would explain the reaction if the first one was unusually flattering.

I've often suspected that in bodybuilding that angles and lighting of pictures is as important as lifting or diet or cell tech.

Once again, I'll take this as a great compliment; thank you.
Dude, I compete with OCB. I've done 10-12 shows, have to polygraph before each one, and piss test for every 1st place.
Fortunately, I've had to piss 3 times for them and I saved my results every time.
And I would have had to beat a polygraph 10-12 times which is highly unlikely. I can see once or twice but 12?
Believe what you want if that makes you feel better.

Honestly, I never thought my physique was anything great until I started seeing other 50+ guys and hearing all you kids say it's impossible.

Yeah, with that set of pics I wouldn't question OP's natty claims. At his height, age, training/diet and genetics (he's clearly got good genetics judging by his calves), that kind of physique is definitely achievable natty. The pics in the OP, though? Different story. That's the physique of a 23-year-old collegiate wrestler.

Are you ever tempted to claim fake natty status just to troll miscers and rustle the old jim jams? I feel like it's something I would do if I hopped on the juice but maybe it's just my inner douche.

Nah. I don't even claim natty when I could because my physique is subpar due to lack of discipline.
