And unfortunately, a lot of amateur bodybuilders get sucked in, to compete against testosterone junkies. But it doesn\u2019t have to be that way. If you want to have a body that will last all your life and want to live longer, it might be a good idea to do only natural bodybuilding.<\/p>\n<p>People always argue about \u201cnatural bodybuilding\u201d term. Some say it\u2019s bodybuilding without any sports supplements, just using fish oil and vitamins to complement the diet. And most people say that it\u2019s bodybuilding where you don\u2019t use any steroids. I would say it\u2019s somewhere in the middle, because Prohormones and \u201cNatural Anabolics\u201d are not safe and yet there are openly sold on the market. They have steroid similar side-effects in a long-term. However, you will be completely fine if you just stick with protein, amino acids and creatine.<\/p>\n<p>There are very few people that achieved truly outstanding results without any drugs. Here are the best 3: (no particular order)<\/p>\n<h2>Jeff Willet<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.realmuscleforum.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/jeff-willet-back.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-1041 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.realmuscleforum.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/jeff-willet-back.jpg\" alt=\"jeff willet back\" width=\"268\" height=\"402\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.realmuscleforum.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/jeff-willet-back.jpg 427w, https:\/\/www.realmuscleforum.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/jeff-willet-back-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 268px) 100vw, 268px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Despite being \u201cmost popular\u201d guy in the natural bodybuilding he is completely underground, especially when compared to any Pro. He trained all his life and achieved a lot of victories \u2013 multiple Team Universe wins and IFBB Pro card. He also introduced his own training system called Max-OT (Maximum Overload Training), which is based on low volume (4-6 reps), maximum weight lifting. Jeff used it since 1998 and looks like it worked incredibly well for him, judging by his transformation. It\u2019s also a perfect program for natural bodybuilders, you must check it out. And of course Jeff has a bunch of training DVD\u2019s and other helpful stuff on his own site &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jeffwillet.com\/\">http:\/\/www.jeffwillet.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>And we can\u2019t really forget his physique. Jeff Willet is incredibly massive! Definitely the biggest natural bodybuilder around. If his chest would be more developed and he had slightly smaller waist, he would have perfect package, that\u2019s for sure.<\/p>\n<h2>Jim Cordova<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.realmuscleforum.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Jim-Cordova_1342694167.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1042 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.realmuscleforum.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Jim-Cordova_1342694167.jpg\" alt=\"Jim Cordova_frontal\" width=\"267\" height=\"401\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.realmuscleforum.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Jim-Cordova_1342694167.jpg 733w, https:\/\/www.realmuscleforum.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Jim-Cordova_1342694167-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/www.realmuscleforum.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/Jim-Cordova_1342694167-682x1024.jpg 682w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 267px) 100vw, 267px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This guy has the most balanced, well-sculpted body of all natural bodybuilders! Just magnificent. The only thing he really needs is bigger calves. And despite his massive presence, Jim weighs just around 80kg in off-season! Hard to believe it\u2019s possible.<\/p>\n<p>He also has a lot of awards and recently Jim claimed such titles as WNBF Pro Mr. Universe and Pro Mr. America,\u00a0 and he is certified trainer (a real authority in this) and marketing consultant for major fitness companies.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s surprising and upsetting that he doesn\u2019t really have any training DVD\u2019s or books out. However, he has his own youtube channel with really good tips and advice. Some training videos also can be found on his website.<\/p>\n<h2>Dave Goodin<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.realmuscleforum.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/button1mini.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1043 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.realmuscleforum.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/button1mini.jpg\" alt=\"Dave Goodin frontal\" width=\"267\" height=\"402\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.realmuscleforum.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/button1mini.jpg 624w, https:\/\/www.realmuscleforum.com\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/05\/button1mini-199x300.jpg 199w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 267px) 100vw, 267px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Despite being reasonably old (54), he still is rocking! Originally, he started as a weightlifter at age of 22 and 6 years later he decided to compete in bodybuilding instead. He has a long list of rewards and achievements under his belt and that\u2019s not a surprise \u2013 he is an outstanding bodybuilder. Dave certainly isn\u2019t a mass monster and he doesn\u2019t have huge arms like Jeff and Jim, but I would say he is the most balanced here. Not even a single muscle group lags behind and his body is very harmonious.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps his most notable achievement is 2-time WNBF Pro World Champ. And it\u2019s very strange, but it seems that Dave doesn\u2019t have a personal website. He can be found on some sites like bodybuilding.com and on <a href=\"http:\/\/texasshredderclassic.com\/\">http:\/\/texasshredderclassic.com\/<\/a> , but there is nothing personal. Though he has an awesome DVD out! It&#8217;s called \u201cThe Texas Shredder\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>All those guys are badasses. And what\u2019s really interesting \u2013 they are all about 170-175 centimeters long and they all weight ~81-84kg in off-season, except Jeff, who weighs about 90kg. But that\u2019s off-season! And it\u2019s not much, if we compare them with Mr. Olympia monsters of the same height, like Jay Cutler, who is 140 kg in off-season!! The difference is obvious, and my vote goes for natural bodybuilding. Stay natural!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>World of professional bodybuilding is filled with guys who (ab)use sports enhancement drugs.
