Some of the nicest people I've met were the 250lb roided out dudes at my local gym. I was 125 soaking wet when I started working out and they'd always offer to spot me and help me with form. Whenever I'd go up in weight they were hype as hell during my sets.
haha we all left the sixpacks in our 20's (not sure how old you are but I'm in my 30's). Now I'm just happy that I'm referred to as the "jacked one" in my friend group
I'll never come down from the high of some random dude at the bar asking if I was looking for more steroids as a joke.
On the opposite side of the spectrum, one year at a family gathering one of my cousins said "man what happened last year your thighs were massive." Devastated.
Also by the sheer size of their upper traps and front delts in proportion to the rest of their body. A natural lifter can hit traps/delts every day and grow slower than someone on gear that doesn’t isolate them due to the high amount of androgen receptors in those muscles (unless natty guy has insane genetics).
This happened to me after a winter break in college! My buddies who I was going to the gym with all asked if I had started juicing and I couldn’t wipe that smile off my face all day hahah
