1. 0:00When I made the first video, I told you
2. 0:02to go back to square one. In order to
3. 0:03really build some muscle. And try to
4. 0:06shed the idea that you can't build
5. 0:08muscle without supplements, steroids,
6. 0:09or a fancy gym. I had a very important
7. 0:12goal. The idea is simply that when you
8. 0:15convince yourself you can't build
9. 0:17muscle naturally. You will always feel
10. 0:20the need for a new product, whether a
11. 0:22supplement or a steroid, to grow. Here
12. 0:25is the important question. Can you
13. 0:27really not do it? Or has the idea that
14. 0:30you can't been planted in your mind?
15. 0:32Let me tell you something simple. In
16. 0:35Roman civilization, for example, you
17. 0:37find many statues carved with muscular
18. 0:39physiques. With very clear anatomical
19. 0:41details. And this makes us ask. An
20. 0:45important question: were these statues
21. 0:48just artistic imagination, or a
22. 0:50reflection of real muscular bodies the
23. 0:53sculptors saw? And if humans back then
24. 0:59could build muscles with that size and
25. 1:01detail without supplements or steroids.
26. 1:04Then we can certainly do the same and
27. 1:06go even further. Why? Let's go back in
28. 1:09time a little bit. Let's remember the
29. 1:1380s generation, the people who worked
30. 1:15out in very simple gyms. Without the
31. 1:18modern machines we have today. Most
32. 1:21training was just iron and free weights
33. 1:24. And if a machine was brought in. Like
34. 1:27a lat pulldown, it was a huge leap for
35. 1:30them. Despite that, people still built
36. 1:33very strong bodies. And achieved
37. 1:36excellent results. Pull-ups were an
38. 1:38alternative to the machine. So was the
39. 1:41lat pulldown. Where was the power?
40. 1:44There is no comparison to the
41. 1:46supplement and steroid users of today.
42. 1:49And after training, it was a glass of
43. 1:51sugarcane juice from Farghaly's. The
44. 1:53poor man's BCAA. And afterwards, they'd
45. 1:55go eat a plate of Koshary. Or a can of
46. 1:58tuna. Or any meal that fit their budget
47. 2:00. And they were still able to build
48. 2:03muscle back then. What is it, Megahed?
49. 2:05Do you want people to just eat Koshary?
50. 2:08Man, I just want people to get back to
51. 2:10training properly first. Then we can
52. 2:13look at the diet part gradually.
53. 2:15Unfortunately, what keeps me amazed. Is
54. 2:18seeing a 16-year-old kid walking into
55. 2:20the gym for the first time. Instead of
56. 2:23thinking about how to learn the
57. 2:24exercises correctly. Or organizing his
58. 2:26meals and getting good sleep. Or even
59. 2:29being patient with his body, the first
60. 2:31thing he thinks about is taking
61. 2:33steroids to grow fast. Have you even
62. 2:36figured out how your body responds to
63. 2:39training? Do you know the risks of
64. 2:41steroids? Have you even learned the
65. 2:43proper form yet? Or are you convinced
66. 2:45from the start that you can't reach
67. 2:48your goal without putting foreign
68. 2:50substances in your body? The problem
69. 2:53here isn't the product you want to buy.
70. 2:56Regardless of its risks or benefits.
71. 2:59The problem is the idea that has taken
72. 3:01control of your thinking. You have
73. 3:02become too impatient for results. To
74. 3:04the point that you don't want to give
75. 3:06your body a chance to do its natural
76. 3:08job. If you want to know how steroids
77. 3:11convinced people. And how they were
78. 3:13discovered. Wait for us in the next
79. 3:15episode.
