This is what happens when you stop taking steroids
this is what happens to your body when you get off steroids and stop training this guy was in the best shape of his life but unfortunately had to get a few surgeries which stopped him from training for a while he had no reason to be on gear so he cycled off of his steroid usage and this is what his physique looked like [Music] after are temporary gains really worth it

We should stop praising the roidfreak physique, frankly it doesn't even look good let alone healthy.
He will get in his old shape quickly especially with gear muscle memory is a thing
Physique is the last thing you should worry about when taking gear. You organs and whole boddy is dying inside…
Another crap video full of lies
Muscle memory would have him back in crazy shape in 6 months
❤
This raises the question: Are temporary gains allowed to be categorised as gains? But then I'm also saying that gains are permanent. So, are gains, gains, if they are permanent?
He is more natural looking off of gear which I find more appealing. It’s one thing looking freakish, but this doesn’t mean you’re in the best shape of your life.
“and stop training” “a few surgery’s” … yes temp gains are worth it if your serious about bodybuilding or powerlifting, if not then no, i just got off cycle and still look insane and will continue to look insane
You have to use the roids to build a muscle base. Once you’re off you gotta work 2x to keep those gains. And if 100% of things are in point, you’ll keep about 70-80% of those gains. And then you go full natty for life and just build slowly off that.
I still find him so hot and sexy! What a Big Daddy he is!
How many die from enlarged heart from steroids? The heart is a muscle after all.
Muscle has memory. Once he's able to return to his previous level of training, his physique will return in as little as 3 weeks.
Still highly impressive, train your health
I look much better than him whe he is off when I have trained natural and diet so I always wondered what I’d look if I did some gear
Absolutely they are worth it……
You can have an aesthetic build and be healthy without all that disgusting PEDs.
He still looks great. Better. Probably faster with more stamina, bet he feels better too.
2022 – Cycling off steroids
2023 – Cyclist
“the best shape of his life” was actually when he was off steroids
Not worth it. Unless you want to die faster
Thats fucking sad sometime i want so bad to hop on gear or sarms but when i see this im telling to my self : if i accidentaly break one of my arm or one my leg for whatever reason and it take 8 months to recover like one of my friend i will lose a insane parts of my "fake muscles or even fake progress" maybe i sound anoying but my god thats not a good idea !!! Stay natural and be proud !!🙃😃
First of all, it states that he had surgeries, plural, and he probably had to lay down for a long period. So, the loss of size is not due only to getting off steroids. Second, he still looks amazing in 2024.
That has very little to do with stopping steroids and everything to do with stopping training. Rent in the gym is due daily anyone who lifts understand this. So by the logic of this video natural or not lifting is pointless because once you stop you will look like a bitch 😅😅
Looked better off gear.
What do you mean temporary? The guy is still jacked as shit. The conditions of both pictures are really different and even though he lost some muscles, he still looks way better than most of us..
Ive been doing weighted calisthenics and currently have the physique of this guys after. Yet i still heard someone saying behind my back that im small.
Why did i click this vid😭
Not all true
Bro stop cycle and he don't train hard anymore
That's why he loss muscle about 70%
If u stop cycle, but u still train hard, maybe you just loss muscle about 30-35%.
You can see jay cutler, he sill looks muscular because he still train hard even he off cycle
Not just from getting off gear, but not training entirely makes him lose significantly more of his gains than he otherwise would
Both the victim and suspect are a couple of simps. both should have their man cards revoked
It’s evident by the look of his face that he has crashed hormones and therefore the muscles he has look worse then they would on a healthy natural.
If let his body recover if that is still possible the same exact muscle mass would look more impressive.
These types of videos are still good since having to take trt for live is not worth it unless you get a multi millionaire from and I bet every single person that didn’t profit financially from it in a major way regrets it at some point.
Surgery impaired him
That's what happens when you aren't able to go to the gym. Steroids help recovery not the hard work needed to get them. You can't sit at home while taking steroids and expect results.
Bto there is so much cope in the comments section from steroids apologists “NOOO bro it had nothing to do with the roids!!”
Bro. Steroid users can literally sit on their ass doing nothing and gain muscle. They can literally do nothing and maintain as long as their on the juice and eating enough. Going off cycle had everything to do with it
I mean he probably had to stop training as well, you can't exactly train for hypertrophy during trying to heal from surgery.
Yes, temporary gains are worth it, because you develop muscle memory and when you start training again will get the gains back very fast
duh,he got off gear AND he stopped going to gym,what do you think it stays on forever lmao,people are so clueless
If you need to get surgeries, you're not in the best shape of your life. Your physique does not equal your health, that's fake
Ever heard of muscle memory? It would only take him 1 month to get his physique back
😂😂
You shouldn't be taking advice from random voiceovers on the internet, one way or the other. This is so vague as to be useless.
I notice that you did not show his physique in 2025 when he won a body building competition in 2025 his name is arthur pontes and he says he is natural !!
Stupid af he looks good off gear still a physique I want
I was training for 10+ years… stopped for 5 years and it took me 10 months to get back where I was… He can easily get it back in like 6 months! Muscle memory 💪🏼
I think it’s because he stopped training😅. Even when natural that’s what muscle does when you don’t use it. Stop blaming the st eroids for the loss of all his muscle.
Of course if he gets off gear and stops training he will shink in size. If he kept training and eating the food and maybe add in some creatine the size difference would not be that drastic
Still had a decent physique for being on trt because when you use gear for a while you need trt
Rebuild muscle is far easyer than building it tho.
