The Governator Reveals His Secret Sauce for Success
Yes, believe it or not - Arnold Schwartzenegger took steroids to help create - what many say - was the perfect physique. The Governator finally dishes on what he took to become the King of Bodybuilding - as Arnold finally reveals his “secret sauce” for success. Let’s get into this…
In the world where pumped-up muscles and bulging biceps reign supreme…
Arnold Schwarzenegger stands tall as THE icon of bodybuilding.
A legend…
And there will never be anyone like him.
He parlayed his success in bodybuilding into a career in Hollywood…
Though, most don’t know - Arnold was a millionaire BEFORE he started acting - as he and Franco Columbu had a successful real estate venture.
He’s definitely one of a kind…
And will forever be known as one of the godfathers of his sport.
That being said…
Not a lot is known about the lifestyle that brought him to prominence.
Sure, we know about some of the meals he ate and how intense and focused he was in the gym…
But nobody really knows the “regime” he was on to help him build that almost flawless physique.
Now, I know you’re not naive…
We all know by now that in order to get the size of Arnold and every OTHER big name bodybuilder - you have to take anabolics.
Whether you call it gear, gas, juice or just plain steroids…
The fact of the matter is - if you want a career in bodybuilding - you need the kind of help that only these kinds of substances can give.
For decades now, a LOT of people wondered which of these elements helped Arnold build his physique…
But he always kept it close to the vest.
So, after years of speculation…
He finally gave us a little insight.
Arnold Reveals His Secret Sauce For Success
Even from his early days on stage - it hasn’t been that big of a secret that The Austrian Oak dabbled in steroids.
However - like I said - the exact concoction he used has remained a mystery…
While many have speculated over the decades - not a peep from the Governator…
Until now.
So, what was it?
What was his “secret sauce”?
Testosterone and D-Bol - a combo that continues to hold a prime spot in bodybuilders' hearts even today.
According to an interview Arnold did with Men’s Health, he revealed, "I'd take a hundred milligrams of testosterone every week and pop three Dianabol pills daily, adding up to a solid 15 milligrams."
Now, this doesn’t really surprise many…
You see, these revelations align perfectly with the cryptic hints The Oak had previously dropped.
In a notorious interview, he may not have DIRECTLY admitted to the "three Dianabol a day" routine - but he playfully hinted at bodybuilders' discussions revolving around those magic digits.
As far as his testosterone usage…
It's not far from what many men on testosterone replacement therapy receive as a prescription.
Maybe Arnold was ahead of his time?
That Was Then… This Is NOW
One thing that the Governator was adamant about is that he does NOT endorse anyone mirroring his regimen.
He points out that his steroid escapades in the 70s were quite different than the trends we see today.
Back then - steroids weren't illegal…
That didn't happen until the Anabolic Steroids Control Act of 1990 came into play.
Moreover, the Terminator himself emphasizes that his usage was always under the watchful eye of medical professionals.
Today…
It's a whole different ball game.
"Bodybuilding used to be considered a safe haven," he declares. "But alas, the winds have changed. People are dropping like flies due to drug overdoses, clueless about what the heck they're doing. They blindly follow quacks and snake oil salesmen. When I seek medical advice, I head straight to top-notch institutions like UCLA or the esteemed Cleveland Clinic."
I mean, if you have access to these eggheads - why wouldn't you lean on their expertise?
Regardless, Arnold understands that his words will most likely fall on deaf ears.
Let's face it…
Steroids played their part in catapulting him from bodybuilding stardom to Hollywood fame…
Why wouldn’t somebody want to follow in those footsteps?
Still, he's doing his best to preach the right sermon.
"Stay away, my friends," he firmly states when discussing the topic of steroids. "We're living in an era where everyone seeks quick cash, fast riches, and overnight influencer status. But mark my words, when you abuse your body, regrets will come knocking sooner or later. I want young people to understand that I've witnessed the pain of individuals undergoing kidney transplants, suffering unimaginably."
That’s a bleak picture…
Arnold humorously compares himself to a daredevil rock climber who takes enormous risks but advises others not to follow suit.
With a twinkle in his eye, he confesses, "I admit it; who am I to be the voice of reason? I'm the guy who climbed without a safety rope."
Were Steroids TRULY Arnold’s Secret Sauce?
So…
After hearing it straight from the horse's mouth - do you truly things testosterone and dianabol were the “secret sauce” to Arnold’s success?
I can tell you with certainty…
That answer is “no”.
Did they play a role in his incredible physique?
Absolutely…
But they weren’t the key.
The key to Arnold’s success wasn’t drugs or any other substance…
It was his mindset.
His drive and determination to be at the top of the mountain - and wouldn’t let anything stop him.
You can take ALL the PEDs in the world…
But without the drive and discipline to do the work,to diet, to experiment with different exercises - you’d be nothing.
Steroids do NOT make the man (or woman, for that matter)...
It ALL comes down to your HUNGER to succeed.
“For me life is continuously being hungry. The meaning of life is not simply to exist, to survive, but to move ahead, to go up, to achieve, to conquer.” - Arnold Schwarzenegger
Editor’s Note: The HUNGER to succeed - that’s how you become a legend. That being said - the key to putting on size - REAL size comes down to one thing: protein.
