#195: Is Natural Bodybuilding Viable?

3D Muscle Journey

Alberto and Eric discuss the path of natural bodybuilding and how it's a real option for those who want to compete in a competitive environment.

Why is it important to be well-informed before using performance-enhancing drugs? If someone chooses to stay natural, are there places they can compete where there is good competition? Based on what we know, does Eric think the current rules around what is required to compete in a tested show after someone has used performance-enhancing drugs allow for a level playing field? How do top natural bodybuilders compare to top enhanced bodybuilders?

The answers to these questions, plus some really cool anecdotes are covered in this episode.
