The funny thing about this is they arent gaining strength of anything, just the appearance. Imagine if these guys tried to act tough at a bar and somebody called them on their bluff and some some guys whipped their ass hardcore lol
 
eew... does it wear off or is that guy stuck looking like a cartoon character for the rest of his life?

I'm pretty sure Greg Valentino used a lot of synthol. I'm sure you can find pics of his cartoon character-like arms on google.

Gregg Valentino didn't use synthol, he used steroids.

I might be mistaken, but I thought I remembered hearing that he injected something other than steroids directly into his biceps.

It has been both confirmed and denied.

Wow, those are some insanely stupid people right there...:thumbsdown:

And even dumber is that when only injected into the arms, it completely throws everything out of proportion. The guy in the picture, doesn't have the chest, neck or shoulders to even make the arms look the least bit normal.

There are people on this planet who I truly hope never breed. Being a dumbass can be hereditary.
 
Since when is synthol new?

I love it how some journalist gets bored and decides to become an expert in something. At least this time it was about actual crap and now the "Dangers of creatine and American youth"
