You also have to remember that Bostin has this preconceived notion that with enough pharmaceuticals, one can turn into a freak. What he forgets when he talks about "wanting to be like the freaks" is the genetic disparity between them, and the rest of us. I firmly believe a lot of the top guys like Jay, and Ronnie would've blown past everybody regardless of their training style.

Charles Glass admitted that Paul Dillet (who was one of the biggest, and freakiest from the 90s) never really benched more than 225 when he trained chest, and did very light pump workouts with lots of talking in between. This guy's arms were absolutely monstrous.

Great genetic response to training, and supplements can often mask poor training, and diet. Unfortunately for the rest of us, the more disciplines we improve, the better we tend to get. You won't be doing this for 30+ years if you don't like training, and place an importance on it. Plus FT is really fun once you make your own little tweaks!!

Just ranting I guess...

I think Bostin is coming around as far as the importance of "gear" to some degree. The thing is, I suspect whatever he says is / will be partly motivated by business reasons, i.e., being controversial to bring attention to his online persona.

If he simply said, "I was wrong - training is much more important that what I thought," regardless of whether he actually believed it, that statement would get him a few dozen podcast interviews and millions of youtube views.
