World's Strongest Man Competition
Each year, if I can find it on tv, I watch the World's Strongest Man competition. Some of the guys that compete in the events on the show have hugh muscles. Is it in any way possible that most of those guys do not use steroids? I know people can get large muscles without using steroids. I just want to know if someone can get muscles that big without using steroids.

1. If one is genetically gifted, yes.
Keep in mind that these guys are powerlifters and endurance lifters, not bodybuilders. With the right diet, training and supplementation, if the genetics are there it's not impossible to be that big/strong without steroids.

Also keep in mind that *if* one were taking steroids, it would still be a phenomenal effort in the gym to get that big/strong.
