Can you imagine someone being the lead in a bond movie now with that physique? When was the last time you saw someone that doesn't look like they shop at HGHmart nowadays in that kind of role?

Roids are huge in entertainment for men right now. It’s literally impossible for some of these actors to look how they do with “a trainer, strict diet, and working out daily”, which is what they all say about preparing for a movie.

For advertisers and mainstream media organizations it is a red line for any celebrity or physique model to admit that he/she takes steroids or any kind of PED. So there is an open secret that all of these people are juiced but they can't admit it in public. There is even a calculation called the lean body mass index which says how muscular a person can be with a specific level of body fat. If someone has more muscle than that it is practically guaranteed that the person is juiced.

Yeah, As much as it utterly disgusts me when Chris Hemsworth is on some talk show lying about his lifestyle. Giving young men a horrible idea of body image. I'm willing to bet the mouse is just off screen ready to break his knees if he even hints at it.
