Are Hodgetwins Natty Or Not? (Truth About Steroids)

To bulk up like the Hodgetwins, it's essential to focus on a clean diet, consistent and challenging training, and prioritize optimal recovery.

1. Diet & Supplements

The first piece of advice you need to follow is that what you eat will dictate your bulking success. Not only does your diet have to be 100% clean, but you'll also need to eat a lot more healthy carbs and protein [4].

And to get as much out of every single workout, you'll also need to consider taking natural pre-workout and testosterone booster supplements. These should give you enough of a boost in performance, recovery, and muscle-building to get you to your goals a bit faster.

You could also speed things up a bit in a natural and healthy way by taking a legal steroid alternative.

2. Tough Training

The majority of guys who start bodybuilding eventually give up on the natty approach because it's hard and takes a long time. To look like the Hodgetwins, you'd have to lift weights five times a week and plan to do that for at least five years.

And the truth is that many folks would rather spend money on steroids than exert effort at the gym.

3. Optimal Recovery

In my experience, one of the most ignored aspects of training among many people is recovery.

Your muscles need ample rest after every workout so they can perform at maximum capacity during your next workout.

People believe the Hodgetwins use anabolic steroids based on physical signs, but these signs can have alternative explanations.

1. Extreme Vascularity

According to a review on PubMed, anabolic drugs may cause your veins to become a lot more visible even when you're not working out [1].

Looking at the Hodgetwins in their studio or other random posts that don't involve bodybuilding techniques, I wouldn't say they have extreme vascularity.

What they have is achievable by natural means and easy to obtain through exercise, diet, and supplements for vascularity.

2. Large Breast Tissue

According to the Cleveland Clinic, regular steroid usage can also cause most people to start developing soft breast tissue [2].

While the Hodge Twins have ripped pecs right now, I did see a few older photos from when they started bulking, and it does look like they might have dealt with these effects, at least for a while.

Some might say, this is a result of anabolic steroid usage, however, gynecosmatia (male enlarged breast tissue) can also be caused by various non-steroid medications [3].

3. Fast Bulking Process

One of the dead giveaways of taking anabolic drugs is a sudden increase in muscle mass and the ability to lift significantly more than before [4].

Now, once I watched a few of their training videos, I actually thought they might have taken steroids because they weren't lifting huge amounts.

But looking at photos from their twenties, they did get big quite fast. And to maintain their muscles now in their 40s would also be difficult even with the right genetics.
