    Im bang on about fighters that have been found and PROVEN to have taken hormones and failed a test. Overeem has done neither.

    Overeem used to kill himself to make 205. He walked around in the region of 230lbs. His gained realistically about 30lbs which includes fat. He's also reaching muscular maturity as he's on his 30's now.
    The fact that Overeem starved his body to make weight and no longer has to do that it's no surprising his gained weight. That said it is realistic for someone to make those kind of gains in 25months. Although the results for your average pug unless he's a pro athlete or extremely dedicated as well as having great genetics are unlikely when compared with Overeem.

    Yes, you can gain 36lbs, but you can't gain 36 lean lbs in a lifetime, nevermind 25months. Its not impossible to gain lean body mass and add muscle naturally at the same time, but in practice it more or less is. Its also way more difficult for someone who has already been training at a high level for years. Your avg. slob, if he starts training manically, eating perfectly and gets lucky with his genetics, can make 10lbs natural gain in a year. Then 5lb if he's lucky the next year. Thats it. Natural gains don't continue forever. Just average gymrat doses of test and dbol will give you another 10-15 lbs but if you're talking about 40lbs of lbm you need to go to high doses and stronger gear. Nobody ever gained 40-50lbs before insulin and growth hormone and thats a fact.
