Gregg Valentino Details The Real Reason He Used So Many Steroids

Gregg Valentino describes the slippery slope that led him from natural bodybuilding into complete steroid abuse. Gregg Valentino has said it before and hell say it until the day that he dies - he is not against steroids. He believes its a necessary tool for bodybuilders on a pro level. That being said looking back on his life he also understands that the level upon which he took steroids was too much. It was abuse and he wouldnt want young bodybuilders to follow in his footsteps. In our latest GI Exclusive interview Gregg Valentino explains the slippery slope of steroid use. Before you know it - you can be way farther past the line you never wanted to cross. Gregg Valentino has always been an open book. Not only about his past steroid use but about his time selling steroids illegally as well. Hes regaled the bodybuilding industry over and over with his insane stories. But during our sit down interview with Gregg we wanted to cut the core question that is often overlooked - why did he start doing steroids in the first place? The easy answer is to get big. Thats a major reason for many bodybuilders. That certainly applies to Gregg. But that also over simplifies it. Gregg Valentino goes into detail about how a casual curiosity turned into full blown steroid use. Eventually that use turned into abuse in Greggs own opinion looking back. While there may be some bodybuilders who are hungry to juice up right away and build massive size - for many bodybuilders like Gregg its more of a slippery slope. Like any drug - it starts off small and turns into something more. While Gregg Valentino wouldnt call steroids a physically addicting drug he does believe its mentally addicting. He describes the euphoric feeling of taking the drug and seeing the results. That feeling makes you want to see what happens if you push it further. Then further and further after that. Eventually logic goes out the door and what could be considered safe steroid use turns into total overuse. This is all easy for Gregg to see looking back now. A younger version of himself might not have called it abuse at all. But now that Gregg is out of the weeds he looks back at the younger generation of bodybuilders with worry. Hes previously stated that the physiques of bodybuilders have become grotesque. He also thinks that the drugs have become more universally overused. Theres an old saying Do as I say not as I do. It appears that this phrase perfectly describes Gregg Valentinos outlook on steroid use. Hes not against it completely. But he would never want a young bodybuilder doing it to the extent that Gregg pushed it.
