It's not steroids. It's severe dehydration plus oiling up the actor
Still an awful act - His kidneys could shut down early as a result
I mean, it's dehydration, but on top of steroids.
Especially when you consider Jackman is fucking 55 years old. In the pic in the left from 20 years ago, he's too old to look like the pic on the right.
There is zero percent chance he's not on them.
Bro it's gear
Yeah gym gear like lifting gloves and gym shark leggings
That and a couple of intense workouts
Lol nah
My dad's uncle works for hugh wolverine and he says he looks like that from doing 20 pushups a day
That's funny because my uncle's dad is actually a huge wolverine. He's really difficult to have at dinner parties.
Because of the racism?
He's actually getting a lot better since Grandma blocked Fox News, the fox is the real problem.
No it's really just his table manners, being a hundred pound muselid and all
That, mixed with several months of full-time training, world class trainers, and a personal chef.
For sure, was just specifically mentioning the full on harmful method used
I'd sure love having a personal chef.
Eating healthier would be so much easier if I had someone professionally trained at making healthy things tastier cooking food for me.
Adding to that, time constraints wouldnβt be an issue. Sometimes making great tasting things is really a matter of spending a long time on a dish.
It is definitely also steroids and supplements in addition to dehydration
It's also steroids, and probably some very expensive, very exotic PED.
It's just testosterone and trebolone, plus maybe a very short run of oral superdrol. Couple that with a ten week cut and some diuretics plus simple carbs just before filming. Six months bulking, three months cutting, every meal calorie counted and tracking macros. Still very hard on your body and requires more or less constantly thinking about.
I heard Stalone regularly uses human growth hormones.
Oh absolutely. I'm not really sure why.
Doesn't it promote muscle growth and generate some of the same effects you had as a young person?
Honestly, I'm not convinced. I know why people take it, but I genuinely think it's because of the name. There's a school of thought that says bodybuilders truly "exploded" in size when HGH came onto the scene, but I think it's more likely this change was due to insulin abuse. Some people say it makes their skin, hair and nails nice, and perhaps helps them lean down better around the middle. But I mostly hear people saying it is very underwhelming, not worth the money, and gives them carpal tunnel syndrome.
I read that it is what causes a protruding gut on modern body builders. Idk if that's true, but Arnold said that years ago.
