Dude started steroids at 16, but the protocols weren’t really developed in the 70s, nobody knew how much they could take, there was no black market, and he could only take what he could get a shady prescription for. It’s almost certain that he was taking a lot less than the average roid-head in the average gym today. Taking less than 1/10th of what IFBB pros take today. (Every guy from that era says a weekly replacement-level dose of testosterone + 15 mg dianabol daily and that’s it, and that’s hard to believe, but it’s also hard to believe that they’ve all coordinated the same lie for 50 years.)
Which if you compare him to Ronnie Coleman, makes sense.
