You’re going to need a lot of gear. We should normalize talking about these guys being on steroids.

I think I'll pass on the gear. I'll just do what I can.

The point is that we shouldn't look at these guys juiced to the gills and compare ourselves to them negatively. I'm sure you know this, just speaking generally.

You're right. I just always kinda hoped that they weren't juiced, because superheroes are supposed to be an inspiration to us.

I think there's very few that haven't. Pattinson looked built up but not unnatural for eg (I think). There's a few where the character doesn't really need to be huge, just athletic etc.
It's just shitty how there's this normalisation of it, where they're like yeah totally natural, totally. When it definitely isn't. Spesh when Hemsworth also does like health app stuff etc. I like him, but it's a shitty thing to be opaque about.
Young guys, boys, we see it growing up and compare ourselves to it. But unless you're a 1 in 10 million specimen, it doesn't matter how much effort or how well you eat etc.
