Arnold Classic champ Wesley Vissers agrees with Arnold Schwarzenegger's 'less is more' philosophy for using steroids

Arnold Schwarzenegger has been in the bodybuilding world for decades now. Having witnessed the sport evolve over the years, he believes modern bodybuilding is in danger due to athletes abusing steroids more than ever.

Even though there is no denying the fact that bodybuilders use steroids, it doesn't directly imply that taking abusive dosages of steroids can outwork poor training. Additionally, taking high amounts of performance-enhancing drugs leads to many severe side effects or even death.

Talking along the same lines, Arnold Classic champ Wessley Vissers recently busted the myths revolving around the popular anabolic compound Trenbolone. During his recent conversation with bodybuilding coach and anabolic expert Steve, who runs his social media under the name 'Vigorous Steve,' Vissers agreed with Arnold Schwarzenegger and stated:

"When you want to use Tren yeah it sounds like exotic, crazy but it works best in a very low caloric state. It's the realisation that the high amounts don't actually do as you think but that's with everything like if you eat more food yes you make more gains up until a point then you just get fat."

"The training as well you can go heavier and heavier until you injure yourself so it has an effect up until a point and then it's going the other way around and with usage it's actually at a very low level already that turning point and much lower than you realise actually," he added.

Arnold Schwarzenegger's views on modern bodybuilders

During his recent interview with Jenny Powell in Birmingham, UK, Arnold Schwarzenegger dropped truth bombs as he gave his honest views about modern bodybuilders.

"Today when you look at bodybuilders, you know, they have a lot of the times this huge stomach and they look like they are pregnant. Like six-eight months pregnant up there on the stage. And I think it has a lot to do with the growth hormones that they are taking. Because when you take growth hormones, it makes your muscles grow but it also makes your intestines grow," Schwarzenegger said (16:41).

Schwarzenegger has been open about his steroid usage during his prime bodybuilding days. Even though these drugs were legal back in the day, golden-era bodybuilders took very minimal dosages of these compounds, resulting in aesthetic physiques.

With the introduction of the mass-monster era, however, the standards of the sport have changed drastically. Concerned by this, Arnold Schwarzenegger stated:

"Also they take other drugs that are very dangerous for your health and that's why you see every so often now, people actually dying. You know they are young, they are in their 30s, and they are dying because of taking too much of these drugs." (17:05)
