The “fitness” medium is constantly associated with the use of anabolic steroids (EAS), often characterized as “pump”. However, this sport depends on total dedication by the athlete in several factors other than these ergogenic resources. For professional bodybuilder Francisco Barrios, from category 212, hormones are overvalued on several occasions.
“I think the pumps are overvalued. It’s just the icing on the cake. They help to enhance your whole effort. Today, I’m getting the best answers I’ve ever seen my physique present, and my current protocol has very low doses,” says the 30 -year -old Argentine athlete in an interview with the column.
According to Barrios, it is necessary to go through more sacrificing steps than the use of EAS to become a bodybuilder: “The natural part of the sport is very underestimated, this is the hardest part of dominating and perfecting. I think it is necessary to take a little focus of how much and what a certain athlete uses and ask him as his daily life, ask him to describe his food supplementation, check if he takes care of intestinal health.”
By deepening the theme, the current New York Pro champion also highlights the importance of maintaining the health of his intestinal microbiota under attention, as it is thanks to her that she can absorb nutrients from ingested foods as efficiently as possible.
Another point addressed by the Argentine is the objective improvement that bodybuilders observe by paying attention to the issues mentioned: “A healthier physique not only responds better to training and diet stimuli, he also stands out on stage.”
Finally, Barrios clarifies that this kind of care is what highlights the best athletes of the others. “The best in the world bring your attention to detail to another level. It’s in the detail of the detail. In the amount of foods you consume, how much you study, how you digest food, for example. It’s knowing how to identify the best strategy for you to work, improve and grow without haste,” he concludes.
