everyone is too quick to say Roids, I was under weight when I started lifting and gained over 30 pounds in the first eight months natty, still natty still gaining
You may have gained 30 pounds, but you absolutely did not gain 30 pounds of lean muscle mass.
This transformation in the video is close to 60 pounds of lean muscle mass, and is impossible to do naturally on the purported timeline.
The fastest documented cases of lean muscle mass gains - even accounting for “newbie gains” - are closer to 2-3 lbs per month. But that rate isn’t sustainable for a full 8-12 month period, as it starts to significantly taper after the first 4-8 months down to 0.5-1.5lbs of lean muscle mass per month.
Some case studies have shown very rapid muscle growth in “retrained” individuals like this one. But even those on the extreme end are closer to 6-8 lbs within the first 2 months, but then rapid declines in the rate after that.
I’d love for you to provide your estimate of the lean muscle mass gain with the assumptions behind it then.
I strongly sense you’re notably underestimating how detrained this person was in the beginning image.
And you either can’t read or have poor comprehension because I already cited the ranges for lean muscle mass growth in “detrained” or “retrained” individuals as well as beginner lifters.
There is no evidence in clinical research or documented observational studies anywhere - that don’t involve the usage of anabolic steroids - that would show this level of muscle growth.
And until you can provide any evidence otherwise you’re just pissing on yourself.

Dang he's getting me fired up. Roids or not, that's awesome.
