There was even talk of random testing in BB some time back. People required to give samples at any time, like a month after comps, or two moths prior etc etc, and Flex Wheeler actually said in an interview, he would endorse such actions, then apologised to a load of readers for admitting it.
I'm not getting into the whole, I think 12 people juicing is at least a level playing field, not a fake show thing again, as I've done that on other discussions here before, and it's Cassies journal, not another Steroids schmeroids disucssion.
At least that Coach had the wherewithall, to say you could make it to the top without drugs, though I would have disagreed if he hadn't.
I read this, and think back to what some Pro said to Cassie, when she went to watch a show, making her think she'd need something, to get that top level look, when progressing higher up the ranks, and it makes me think you know what, I hope Cassie proves that guy wrong. I hope she one day gets pro, without anything, not even anything you could call a Hormone, Steroid, Pro-hormone, or Endocrine manipulating substance, like IGF-1, T3, GH etc etc.
However, what ever happened, I wouldn't feel anything but immense pride for her, and in any situation like hers, I'd say to someone I really believed in like Cassie, I don't think you'll ever need anything "risky", to achieve a top level look, but I cannot stop that person from exploring such avenues and trying them, but it's the same for supplements too, even a Protein powder. You do your darn homework, don't trust any sites that looekd highly educational, but have offers, purchasing links, promotional codes etc etc, that might have a vested interest in not disclosing some downsides, for moneys sake, or that of the sites they link to or endorse, but use sites endorsed by unbiased bodybuilders, scientists and reasearch groups, or sites like B-net, Pub Med etc etc, that are not in a manufacturers pocket so to speak.
I don't disagree with use in BB and figure, as I've already said, but won't elaborate on the 12 juicers, is still an even playing field stance, but I DON'T and never will endorse it. I only don't agree with female bodybuilders having possibly 190lb, 17" Arm sized bodies, because by then, it's not just small doses of weak stuff, it's got to be hardcore stuff, that WILL force the body to change irreperably, and whilst I can respect they train darn hard, it's not the use by them that's the issue for me per se, it's the HEAVY use, and potentially life threatening long-term effects.
Cassie knows that I think she can go a long way, and NEVER have to take anything she wouldn't want to. I know she has no intentions to take anything, and as I said, to make it pro, and prove that Pro guy wrong, would be just a cherry on top moment in eyes.
Do I honestly believe Cassie can be a pro without anabolics, or endocrine manipulaters. YES!!!!!!!!!!! That's not a biased response. That's a straight from the gut response, as I have never told anyone who is looking to acheive a physical goal, something I don't think they are capable of. Nor do I believe outrageous things in people, only things I know are acheivable for them, not things only a gentically gifted one in a billion could do, so if someone doesn't live up to belief in them, it's almost certainly their approach at some point, that didn't make it possible.
If I told Cassie she's good enough to be pro in 3-4 years, and never lose to anyone along the way, I would expect her to make me eat a verbal turd pie.
I deal in honest straight talk, not B.S. or "what they want to hear" type answers, (unless a WTWTH answer, is the same as a straight talk response on some occasions), because giving false hope to people is wrong, and I never intentionally do it.
I am supremely confident, the truth about Cassies true ability and potential, will become clear, maybe as early as this year, but make no mistake, she doesn't need anything "risky" to be a pro, she just needs to focus on herself, keep investing the time to refine, develop and learn more about her physique, and keep investing time in practicing moves, and if she cointinues to do that, as incredibly well in the coming few years, as she has done thus far, then only some partially myopic judges, could deprive her of competing at a top level at some point.
In belief she has what it takes, and her champions style approach to this since day one, fully supports belief 10,000%
