The Most CYNICAL Natty or Not Video Ever Made...

[@GVS]

Guess what? Not everyone in the fitness industry is on steroids, nor is everyone simply out to make the most money possible. Just because you got burned doesn't mean that everyone making progress in the gym or anyone bigger than you is on something. Some are. Some aren't. And if your standards are low, you're going to be wrong a LOT of the time. These types of videos really do a lot of damage. It's OK to be skeptical (even of me) but it's very easy for the skepticism to cross into cynicism and low standards. These types of echo chambers such as the "natty or juice" section on Reddit will ABSOLUTELY limit your progress as a beginner. I can't imagine where I'd be if I had stumbled across that type of content as a beginner lifter...I probably would have given up, or thought that 16" arms were my limit. I actually agree with a lot of Revival's points, and if I had to decide if someone was natural or not, many of them are solid metrics. But so often people see a picture or video, often under good lighting, when lean, with a pump, and flexing, and decide IN ADVANCE of using any other metrics that they are not natural. They then try to reverse engineer the "carefully thought out system" to explain their emotional beliefs. Oh, he doesn't have a strong 1 rep max on the lifts I do! Oh, he does more volume/intensity/frequency than me, how does he recover? Did you ever consider that those two statements EXPLAIN each other? But no, it's right to "Must be on drugs!" Ultimately, Revival has plausible deniability here, but he's made his opinion known in the comment section several times. I don't care whether you think I am natural, but I do care about the pathetic blackpilled messaging that keeps anyone watching your videos small, and smallminded.

[@verablack3137]

If you colorize half of those bronze era people and upload a cropped photo, almost everyone will say that person isn't natty. I once saw a post where people were absolutely certain that Luisita Leers wasn't natural not realizing that would have been impossible. People are just so convinced everyone is on gear, and I don't understand why.

[@benluben1058]

To be honest, RF got big - particularly in the natty fitness community - off of his Doucette call out video but kind of never really had a ton to offer his audience beyond that (to be clear that callout video was generally great in that no one had so effectively organized the specific contradictions within Greg's "fluid" definition of maingaining up until that point). I think there's value in fitness content coming from people at all different stages in their journey - even if its something as simple as the encouragement for a newbie that comes from watching another newbie make the same journey - but its worth being more conscious about whether this particular person is the best source for what you're looking for And as pretty young intermediate bodybuilder - without either education or extensive "on the ground" experience - maybe RF isn't the one people should be looking to for high level programming advice or insight into what is or isn't possible in the long run

[@mattpujol1111]

17:30 This is SUCH a relevant point. I remember beefing with Revival Fitness in the comments section of one of his videos. He was all but calling you a fake natty in the comments, so I pushed back on that. He said you had every incentive to grow your outreach as big as possible. I pointed out the fact that your channel only had ~130k subs, and that Revival was speaking as if you weren’t a very niche fitness influencer to begin with. I also pointed out that your actions really didn’t align with why fake natties take drugs to begin with, which is a motive to commodify and extract as much money from their image as possible. If GVS were interested in growing his outreach first and foremost, don’t you think he would make drama videos, clickbait his natty status, do collabs with other normie fitness influencers, make vlog content, take every sponsorship and brand deal under the sun, and of course, make natty or not videos? Is GVS the *one* fake natty who doesn’t act like every other fake natty in history? Or is GVS indeed natural and looking out for the best interest of the natural lifting community? Of course, when I brought all this up to Revival, he never responded lmao. Goes to show you where this guy’s priorities are. I wonder why he won’t just call Alex Leonidas or Natural Hypertrophy fake natties as well. I guess going after Alex would make him look terrible, and he doesn’t want to get sent to the shadow realm by the baguette man once again.

GVS - I don't know your status but it's about Bayesian priors and inference to the best explanation. The probability that a "fitness influencer" is on gear has to be the default one. Think about it. If one by default assumes that these influencers are natty, probabilistically you will be wrong more times than correct. The inverse assumption will be correct more times than it is wrong. Appreciate if you are natty and it annoys you folks suggesting otherwise but as one of the more intelligent people in this space I am sure you can understand the basic reasoning I have outlined. Btw your books etc are really good.

[@GVS]

"While in Bayesian statistics the prior probability is used to represent initial beliefs about an uncertain parameter" As for as I can tell...initial. Not final. This is why if someone who knows nothing about me sees one video and assumes I'm on something, I don't really mind that. However, when someone who has known about my training history, knowledge, consistency, lack of side effects, reasonable progression, etc etc for years still assumes that, it is a lot less excusable. If you take into account ALL of the factors and look at them, it shifts the likelihood a lot. Vitruvian physique did a good video on this highlighting the additional information that is helpful in assigning likelihood of natural status. Ultimately, the assumption that everyone is on is heavyhanded, wrong and limiting. We can be more nuanced than an assumption of 100% guilt.

Letting your fans know you’re natural and responding to people who accuse you of not being natural every now and then is fine.

One typical thing i noticed with steroid users and which i would say is the best tell-tale sign is that their muscularity seem to increase exponentially whilst losing bodyfat at the same time and it happens fast to where they get a grainy, veined, flushed, ripped look with 3d delts within just a couple of months, yet all throughout this process the amount of effort and intensity expended was relatively small. Also they likely, in most cases, didn't need to be in a good deal of calorie surplus. They might aswell have taken in their daily requirement and not single gram of carb more. And an addition to that; the God awful stupid unnecessary grunting while doing their fluff and pump. So yes in general this one is the hallmark for the roided gymrat.

[@DarkVeghetta]

Currently I'm training at home but, when I went to the gym (medium-sized), I mogged most people there after only a few months, with the exception of ~5-8 veterans. Then again, I started as an adult, at 36, and had plenty of blubber (124 kg at the start, 100 kg ~10 months later) to fuel my newbie gains, plus I was always fairly strong. That said, not only am I natty, my T levels easily place me in the hypogonadism category (I'm talking fifteen/seven times less than normal levels; thankfully I've mostly avoided the really bad side-effects, presumably because I respond very well to what little I do have). My only real advantage is that I can train to my heart's content, since I took 1-2 years off from any serious work commitments in order to build my physique. From this, I conclude that most people either don't know how to train properly, don't put in serious effort, or both. Also, while I was highly interested in TRT to get back to a non-defective state, I've since decided against it. There are some low-T mental issues that still slightly bother me, but they've lessened a lot after nearly a year of lifting - it's even possible my T levels have slowly improved, though it might just be general better fitness/health. Regardless, I LIKE the idea that I'm at a disadvantage. Let the rest play on easy mode, I've always enjoyed the challenge of playing on hard difficulty. Plus, it makes my PRs and physique achievements all the sweeter. All the best from Romania!

[@Verbux]

You're awesome bro. With the glory to god, may you see success.

[@DarkVeghetta]

@@Verbux Thank you. I've actually lost 34 kg's by this point and things are going well. PR's are still plentiful. I haven't noticed any major low-T signs for a while now and suspect my levels have stabilized to an at least adequate state for my sensitivity, if not at normal levels. Will check in a few months. Turns out training regularly over a long period of time heals your body and promotes hormonal recovery. I feel and look like I'm in my early 30s rather than 38. Working out seriously was the best decision I've ever made.

[@johnbooker8512]

Hi Gef, I always thought you over emphasized how so many gym goers don't know what true failure is. So I told my friend who has been lifting 2-3 years about the phrase you say often "gun to your head could you get another rep?" and a week later he claims it's all he thinks about each set and that it's helped his training greatly. So I guess you were right, probably a good thing to mention this frequently.

The vast majority of people who are worrying about the natural limit have no reason to. If you have your training, diet, stress management and sleep in order, you can achieve any goal within reason. It really only matters if you want to become a (natural) bodybuilding champion. But then you will also know, if you are an outlier. When Urs Kalecinski, Wesley Vissers and Cbum posted their peak natty pics, I believed them and still do. Spit the black pill out and go hard. And test levels and age are also overrated.

[@zerrodefex]

Yeah if you're not even competing with anyone beside your past self then why the stressing out over a "natty limit"? Just like how I'm not going to get on a platform and powerlift for a crowd so I don't care if my strength is currently behind some arbitrary standards as long as my health and physique are still improving. As for test levels that's only one part of the equation as well, your actual sensitivity to testosterone matters greatly and is why we see many "low-T" people who still get better results than many who have high T levels even.

I think Natty or Nots were the biggest reason back in the day (and even now) why natural lifters have such low standards of themselves. Guys like Doucette, Phillion etc. making generalist statements like "YOU CAN NEVER ACHIEVE" etc. I think the Noble Natties have done a good job in upping the standards of what you can do, but there'll always be guys like this who think being natural = being weak and skinny.

[@GVS]

I'm tempted to do a natty or not on ALL the guys that MPMD/Greg/Phillion did videos on just to share the perspective of an advanced natural lifter. A lot of the guys they think were on I feel very differently about.

[@nicksmith4244]

Greg has impossibly low standards for the average person and I find it incredibly irritating. The genetics claim has no explanatory power. These people aren’t geneticists and there’s no identifiable gene sequence which is responsible for an individuals potential. There’s a plethora of Comorbid factors that each contribute to an individuals baseline, potential and rate of progression which can’t be gleaned by observation alone. The best approximation from that standpoint is garnered from evaluating a persons frame. It’s all reverse engineered through observing the general population, which do not know appropriate programming/periodization, dietary practices or often possess the motivation to achieve greater goals. The genetics argument can be applied fallaciously to any discipline, and needlessly rejects the massive role environment plays. It’s bizarrely deterministic without the framework to justify it.

[@nicksmith4244]

And the average person can become extraordinary through effort. Heck, even below average people can become extraordinary relative to the average person because most people don’t try very hard. This applies to nearly everything like intelligence. Perhaps you don’t have the raw processing power of someone gifted at learning, but through hard work you can overcome the disparity and often surpass them. Many gifted people never learn to overcome adversity which cripples their development later in life.

[@nicksmith4244]

I also have to add that the expression of one’s genes can change over the course of their life based on how they interact with their environment. For some reason epigenetics aren’t ever considered in this discussion. I don’t imagine that it has a very substantial impact but “genetics” aren’t some static monolith.

[@zerrodefex]

@@nicksmith4244 "Many gifted people never learn to overcome adversity which cripples their development later in life." I've seen quite a few times when gifted people burned out because they were cruising on easy mode for much of their early life only to find they were a big fish in a small pond, I was one of them. For example I never had to learn how to study and when I got to classes that actually started challenging me I got overwhelmed as I could no longer just effortlessly absorb the info and ace tests while those who had struggled for years and learned how to study properly to keep up ended up blowing by me. It was some time before I recovered from that and learned how to actually apply myself properly, some never do and are just bitter that they "peaked" so early in life.

However I think he saw it as a more global approach and you or Bald Omni Man, NH and so on are a different breed from the countless "influencers" that only see one thing in their followers: money to be made. And I am certain they're able to sell their pointless products much better by pretending that they are magic tools to reach a top 1% physique. The general public will be on an eternal hunt for that one (or 1000) magic pill that will remove all effort and get them their desired result in an short time frame. An example for this, something that grinds my gears a little: there is this ad of a guy saying that there are three things one needs to build muscle and he goes on to present his pre workout, supplement and some other consumable. You don't need to train, sleep or eat, certainly nothing more specific like a proper program. Just buy my products and you'll get huge.

As another counter-perspective on the 8th factor about strength at 11:30, finding your channel has been a big catharsis for me, as I really haven’t found anyone else out there who makes these huge physique improvements without the strength to back it. It seems like everybody else in this space either has an awesome physique with the impressive lifts, or still has impressive lifts with a physique that leaves a little to be desired. I consider myself to have a bit of “strength dysmorphia” in this regard. I’ve trained for 14 years, my physique now dwarfs where I was several years ago, and yet still to this day my best lifts are 275 pause bench, 335x5 squat, and 495 deadlift. Seems like all the advanced guys, natural or otherwise, bench low to mid 300s, 500 squat, 600 deadlift. Your entire background just reminds me of me, long distance runner for years, something I excel at far more with half the work as lifting. I’ve always been better at pushing high volumes and being able to really grind out sets for higher AMRAPs than you’d expect for my 1RM. I’ve just never been particularly gifted at strength, despite it being 80% of my focus. After years of training and watching guys half my size lift at or near my numbers, it’s just nice to know I’m not the only one.
