- Have you ever wondered what bodybuilders looked like before steroids were invented? You might be surprised to see the physiques that they sported. They were clearly nothing like the monsters that you see today.
Does that mean that they were not lean or didn’t look good? Of course not! As a matter of fact, these physiques are what many can achieve as long as they stay natural. So don’t be discouraged by those that are clearly using PEDs, instead, look to build your best body naturally as these bodybuilders did.

@@adriadri3624 plus lifestyle. There was a good chance that you grew up having to be physically active out of different necessities. You body develops different and that sets a base.
@@haze4622 It's true. I grew up on a farm, and then crosstrained for baseball using power lifting from a teenager into my twenties. Played in college.
Now I'm in my forties. Haven't done any serious training in almost two decades. I'm still shredded as fuck. I do literally nothing to maintain it.
It's truly not fair. People work their ass off for 1/10th of the results I get from just sitting as much as possible. I'm honestly lazy as shit, and eat whatever I want. I have no business owning this much muscle definition.
I have no explanation for it other than how I grew up. My "snacks" as a kid were just fresh vegetables, plucked off a vine. We had a small orchard for fruit too. Mom said it was worse than having a rabbit in the garden because she couldn't remove the "pest" that was stealing all her harvest. Plus, I was just running through the forest, and climbing trees all day, every day. Building forts in the woods. Just extremely active.
It wasn't even possible to get cable TV where we lived. Thirty miles from the closest McDonalds. All the shit that has fucked everyone else up just never touched me as a kid.
Thanks mom n dad. Thanks for the genetics too, I guess.

These older guys worked out but they also grew up working hard and playing outside .
Everyone grew up working hard and playing outside, only the guys that worked out looked like this.
Remember that doing things SPECIFICALLY for hypertrophy is always going to make you bigger than just general physical activity. The entire point of resistance training is that it’s the MOST efficient and effective way to trigger hypertrophy, working hard and playing outside did literally nothing for their physiques.
@@dylanhoss3387 thanks for agreeing with me
Such a stupid comment
They were not forced to study for JEE NEET bullshit and then refrain from anything that helps their body function naturally by working like tech slaves for 20 hours a day
On average these kind of bodies were rare back then. This type of physique is much more prevalent these days.
If you notice their chests are under developed and this isn't because of a lack of steroids, it's because they weren't benching or using fly movements. Their emphasis was more on overhead presses and they didn't have flat benches.
You are a 🤡
they are well developed, it's the boob looking lower chest nowadays that's over developed imo
The problem for me is that it's not about whether it's possible, it's about the fact that most people today use peds to get this type of physique.
Do they though? 🤔 I have noticed that users tend to always be bloatedly big, like super round muscles but with little definition. Not as seen here in the old photos.

Yes! Happy to see their pictures.
Could you name the other guys please? I recognize Sandow, who was the guy with the sharp mustache?
@@guccimane623 The clean-shaved person flexing his biceps and doing the abdominal hollow was Bishnucharan Ghosh, the guru of Bikram Chowdhury ( the famous proponent of Bikram Yoga). Ghosh had a gym in Kolkata ( formerly Calcutta, a city in Eastern India) where he had many followers who were trained under his supervision.
Ghosh had a penchant for motorcycles and loved to flaunt his 1000 cc motorcycle on the streets of Calcutta at a time when such a hobby was rare among Indians.
Another interesting tidbit: He was the brother of Paramhansa Yogananda, the author of 'Autobiography of a Yogi' - a book which is very popular among a niche of western readers (Steve Jobs, for example).
Somewhere down the line India lost the culture of physical excellence 😢
Not just bodybuilding and yoga, even Gama Pehelwan and Dara Singh are prime examples. Maharana Pratap was said to possess tremendous strength.
@@fookrefookre349 unfortunately the brits colonial our minds. They destroyed our culture
The man in the third photo is Eugen Sandow. He is considered the father of modern bodybuilding.
He's probably considered the father cause no one wanted a brown person to be known as the pioneer lol
That’s the power of intense full-body workouts
The Bengali bodybuilders from Calcutta come from the gym of Bishnu Charan Ghosh (the clean shaved guy doing the double biceps pose). The pictures are from a book, they might have used some pencil effects for a wee little bit of enhancement. This is the same gym that produced Asia's first international Bodybuilder, Monotosh Roy, the founder of Asian Bodybuilding Federation and Indian Bodybuilding Federation.
Yes, you are correct. Enhancements have been around forever. Be it physical, chemical, visual, or otherwise .
Exactly!!
That’s what I said !
There definitely are enhancements done to those pics, because I’ve seen the same pics without the enhancements.
@@benheatherkrieger79 these are from a book the name of which is not present in my memory RN. The enhancements were done for visual aesthetic purposes, these guys were no slouches though, they didn't train solely for bodybuilding, they incorporated everything, BW exercises, strongman style training etc. Fun fact, in the vernacular language i.e. Bangla, the wifebeater is called Sandow genji, the Sandow originating from Eugene Sandow who visited the city.
Man were jacked nonetheless
@@leovillant768 no doubt about that, man. I had the fortune of meeting the second international bodybuilder from Asia, Manohar Aich. He lived till 104.

HOO RAH
You calling him a cheetah?
😂😂
😂😂😂 "I'm here to represent, ya get me"!
What he needs is a toga and for Jessie to feed him grapes.
my pops was a natty bodybuilder in the 80's he told me all about that lifestyle back in the day. He went to a gym that was super strict about juice like they'd question you when you first came and if you bulked up real fast they'd pull you aside and kick you the fuck out.
Gonna get big one day for my pops.. ion know how the fuck he did it. Just sheer hardwork and determination. A lot a lot tougher than i am.
This is what "we" need to see!
I've been mostly turned off of most gym/fitness content because of how discouraging it can be, the so called "workout motivation" can be anything but that, but this is real, I'm gonna remember this.
It's ridiculous that so many people believe those channels are natural and not juiced
Don't need steroids just build up to what you're genetics allow you to all naturallll...
Genetics....current gen genes are shit....50% less sperms...testo dropping 1% every year
Chiseled out of marble💪
Those lats and the physique on that one guy is insane for that era💪
People need to understand that there was only a handful of physiques like this so they had amazing genetics .
Exactly. These guys were the Mr. Olympia of their time. Pretending like those physiques are possible to anyone without great genetics or PEDs is dumb.
@noobgoestrapping5084 they kinda are though. Maybe not to everyone but your genetic limit should be at least near this because exercise science has come a VERY long way since then. They didn't have bench press or machines and they didn't know much about diet.
In fact one of the bodybuilders from this era had in their plan that they would hit chest by moving dumbells in like basically the same motion that would be done on a machine press. The problem with that being that's a front delt exercise not a chest exercise.
Clearly their future selfs traveled into the past to drop some test needles nearby
Only a handful of people trained back then...

How to Get Strong and how to Stay So, written by William Blaikie, and published in 1879, is a treasure. It's very difficult to find but copies of the pages are available online. I have an original edition of the book but I rarely open it these days because it's so fragile.
these guys trained very hard over a long period of time. Many were strongmen of their times. they look good.
amazing. I will compete naturally, in an actual natural federation with wada testing (on show day and randomly during the off season) in september. It’s the PNBA federation. I’ll start with the NBFI wich is the italian equivalent of that and the goal is to qualify to the pnba shows like the natural olympia in october. Thanks Jeff i ve been listening to you for years
Those people also looked like that back then, we know so much more about optimal training and diet to get even better results today
No one wants to do the proper human diet. Everyone's still looking for shortcuts. That's one big issue.

"Whether you believe you can or you can't, you're right" - Henry Ford. Btw, my uncle was a national champion body builder in the 1940s. He had a very similar physiques to those pictures. And he couldn't afford meat more than once or twic a week.
That's kind of a vague statement , how much meat exactly are we talking? Did you also know that back then food was significantly higher in essential minerals, thus helping those to stay fit and healthy. Now everyone is fat and eats too much salt and sugar and processed food
Milk and eggs build muscle too.
@@RotaryPoweredRX It's vague because being unable to afford meat except once or twice a week can not be precisely quantified. If you'd like precision, it was around the 250grams per meal or half that. It could be liver, organ meat, quarter or half a chicken or red meat. His staples were fava beans, and lentils. It was all he could afford. Back in the day, people didn't have Orea for breakfast and sit around to watch TV. Fat people eat loads of meat too, not just processed food and sugar.
@RubyZan most overweight people know very little about muscle gain and fat loss, and virtually nothing of nutrition, let alone how to read labels. Food was also higher quality in those times because the soil was rich in vital minerals and vitamins. I also would like to state that you don't need to eat copious amounts of meat and protein to be muscular. Your relative obviously was knowledgeable in his calorie management
@@RotaryPoweredRXa cow
The fact that those guys have infinitely less knowledge of exercise and diet like we do and yet were jacked i wonder how they would have been with the modern knowledge
I think that’s the problem we over complicate it food is energy the amount of food you eat should equal the amount of energy you put out if u eating big plates of food then don’t exercise your gonna gain weight
"pick up the heavy thing, eat a healthy diet"
Modern knowledge hasn't changed that.
@@Kieran0while the bare bones might be same but with modern knowledge these guys would have reached even further. They didn't know macros, calories or anything like that only cue they had for diet was healthy or whole foods that's it.
@@shilpipandey4537 for sure but I expect at that point we're talking about marginal gains.

That physique is definitely attainable and even with better nutrition nowadays. I'd say physique bigger are also possible
There is also lots of renaissance art like Michelangelo s works. The Greeks and Romans were jacked way before dieting or gyms let alone peds.

@@dimaztri19yeah, apparently many of the models they used back then worked in rock quarries. They were workers just splitting stones and moving them for hours per day. Sounds like a hell of a workout to me
Sure, but use of steroids these days is skyrocketing because of popularity of Sam Sulek, Tren Twins and other non-natty kids who dont yet have capacity to understand how much negative impact they have on young, gullible and naive teenagers
It helps if you've never heard of them lol

Anyone who has noticeable muscles or a developed body is accused of steroid usage, not just stage competitors, bcs the belief is more common that people can't even achieve a muscular body anymore with steroids. It's dumb.
That was back when the obsession for picture-perfect musculature in bodybuilding was not intense. No commercial sponsors and deals to create celebrity/superstar/showbiz-worthy athletes in most countries.
They didn't have micro plastics wrecking their hormones. Better food too.
Highly unlikely that they had access to better food. Most of them were most likely on high-carb-diets for most of their lives, as was the norm those days. Fresh vegetables or fruit were only seasonably available, meat was not necessarily the best cut, and hardly affordable on a regular basis. They probably ate more eggs.
@qwktube Whatever you say about food quality, they still wouldn't be flooded with microplastics, xenoestrogens, seed oils, preservatives, GMOs and industrial pollutants. Anything from back then is nowhere near as poisoned as it is today. NOT EVEN CLOSE.
@@jamesb.russell2942 start informing yourself about health risks, and don't believe the conspiracy theory tinfoil hats. Most of the things you mentioned have no noticeable effect on health outcomes in the doses we find in foods today. GMOs are even "healthier" than normal crops.
About the "poisoning": back then, food quality overall was terrible worldwide, millions of people died because of natural food poisoning, most children were malnourished, healthcare was inaccessible to most.
The simple truth is, food quality today is better than ever before. Food availability is better than ever before. Food diversity is better than ever before. And if you're concerned about GMOs or some other scare, it's easier than ever before to know where your food came from and make the according choices.
Instead they had lead poisoning, malnutrition, probably working in a factory since they were 5 years old and 2 world wars to top it all off. Trust me man they werent doing much better
Their activity level was through the roof compared to today. Everything in life was hard work to make it happen - to just get groceries on the table. All these dudes were probably lean as hell since birth as many people were. Add 15-20lbs of good muscle and they look fantastic

Don't forget most people will never be able to attain these physiques even if they tried. These people are genetically gifted as well as hard workers

Bullshit. Yes your muscle inserts may not be as aesthetic but 100% of able bodied healthy individuals could get this shredded.
Every body can become like every other body provided the correct sequence of stimuli for that transformation. Please search for Michael Levin's biological work on morphogenesis outside of genetic constraints on animals using bioelectric manipulation.
Those indian bodybuilders are so good looking.
And the cool thing about these physiques are that you can maintain them even up in later years.
fact. not everyone is on steroids. Be commited and you will surprise yourself. Commitment and dedication is the key.
If you notice also the modern body builder is bald from using roids.
Hairloss is genetic, the bodybuilders that take steroids and are bald would be bald even without steroids.

There’s a saying that goes like this: you can be shredded, big, or natural; although you can only pick two. You can definitely be decently big and shredded as a natural but you won’t hold as much muscle compared to if you’re bf% was higher, generally speaking. Steroids (especially trenbolone) are very effective in maintaining muscle while you’re in a caloric deficit, which is why insane looking physiques, like Chris Bumstead’s, are common place today. Those earlier bodybuilders have extremely impressive physiques, although their conditioning and camera angles makes them look like they’re taking steroids when they’re not. If you actually pay attention to their muscle to height ratio, most of them probably wouldn’t surpass an ffmi of 25, which is generally considered the limit for most naturals.

I do enjoy watching other people test the bodies limits though. Seeing Ronnie Coleman squat all the plates in the gym makes me want hit the gym immediately 😂
It is absolutely possible to be small and chiseled naturally. No one will accuse you of being on steroids if you weigh 165 and chiseled.
No one who actually knows anything about body building and steroids.
I've seen people accuse anyone who looks noticeably muscular of riding. Look up Doyle from the Misfits. Super cut, lean muscle guy who has been athletic his whole life. People accuse him of steroids all the time.
You'd be surprised. Maybe not on the Internet but 💩 hits different in real life.
Genetics were much better in that generation.
Jeff nippard is a living example of the fact that you don’t need steroids for a top level physique. You do need them to look like Sam sulek tho.
100% agree, but as a "bigger guy" I wouldn't have that kind of physique. But those old school photos show others it's 100% possible given proper diet, exercise and good genetics
It was achievable in short men now the jacked guys in the 1910s,20s,30s weren't 6'5 😂 and the average 6'5 guy is not getting that physique
"The average 6'5 guy" lol. Tall people absolutely can fill out their frame they just have to eat more

Yeah but those dudes were 105 lbs 4'2"
Stop making excuses
@@mhxxd4 lol...no excuses...
Imagine a time traveler brings a tape measure to prove they’re 5’9
We’ve had 6ft tall Americans as early as Thomas Jefferson
well done man, not just for the mental fortitute it takes to be fit, but for the intelligence and knowledge it takes to understand anatomy. ur videos helped me overcome years of pain that i believed to be a slipped disc in my back and i will never underestimate the power of muscle balances again in my life.
First dude was absolutely shredded though
Anabolic steroids have been around since the 30s.
