Love that Mike Ashley story. Spending years mid pack but not hopping on, then passing everyone because of a drug test must be a pretty wild feeling. Bet his competition looked at him differently after that. If you toss any one of these guys into reddit "natty or juice" you'd get 99%+ of people saying there's no chance that they're natural. I think it's possible that a few of them weren't, but ALL of them? Statistically unlikely. Natural limit of the best of the best is way higher than most people think. There are some real freaks out there.

This should be interesting. I don't know many natural bodybuilders other than the KZbin guys. Since I've been listening to Steve from Revive Stronger, my respect for natural bodybuilding has grown when I see how hard he works at it and what you can do as a natural over years. You can really see the growth over years of natural bodybuilders even though it is a lot slower than juiced bodybuilding.

It's a bit demotivating. With years of work you can have a little muscle and be ripped.

@@ericjames7819 All depends on your standards. Yes, you'll be smaller than if you did drugs, but you also...don't have to take drugs. In the real world, guys like Steve look very impressive, the only time "can have a little muscle" is true is on social media when comparing to enhanced guys, but that's a very niche case.

Shout out to Frederik Ipsen. I know he lost to Benjamin, but god damn, his back double-bi is out of this world. So much mass and utterly peeled. For the future, Samuel Hartman deserves a mention - incredible shape and size, plus a true artist and bb nerd.

Was checking out Philip Recardo Jr and looks to me like some of those crazy leg veins are varicose. Not to say he wasn't shredded he absolutely was and looked incredible... just pointing that out

Great and interesting video! I've read Ron Williams is also one of the most decorated natural bodybuilders in the world. Would he make your list?

Is there any way you guys could put a list of the mentioned bodybuilders in the description? I'm pretty new to the natural competitive scene and trying to find pictures of them to follow along is a bit difficult :)

Paul Jean Guillaume. He Was I won of the first natural bodybuilders in the IFBB with Ashely. That Won the World Championships when it was drug tested back in the 80s. He has beautiful shape and condition! I remember Bernard Sealy competing at the Olympia around 1990 when it was drug tested, but he definitely did not have the condition of the modern-day Naturals.

I think it’s because they said in the beginning they would only consider people who competed in a legit drug tested federation, which I guess Kai Green did before going IFBB.

Get rid of the piss cups and polygraphs. The true natty test is if they look DEL in a hoodie.
