Strongman seems rife with gear usage, there are some monsters that make me look tiny who compete at novice level. It's mental.

Do you class yourself as natural now? When was the last time you cycled?

Last time i took anything was 25 years ago, other than muscle memory from then i would class myself as natural. I have only been weight training for 4 years now, i did 7 years of Tri-Athlon inbetween.
 
Yeah but fancy supplements, mainly, have no effect. This stuff has a very distinct effect, in fact id go so far as to say they have the exact effect that supplement makers peddle on their tubs, isnt that funny?

yes. so why do people get so worked up about supplements?

Because they cost a lot of money with false promises and negligible return.
In most cases a good diet and plenty of rest will be as good, if not better, than most supps

Because people talk about them as if they're more potent than they are and most people try and save other people's money. People talk about being "on" a supplement, and as if they're some sort of elixir of training, whereas, most of it comes from diet (eating the right things in the correct quantities), time in the gym, doing the right exercise in the gym and sleep. If they concentrated their time on spending money and resources towards better foods they'd get better returns. Also rather than just doing a token exercise in the gym, and doing some decent work people start to see results - however, this is only true with food + sleep.
