Not such a big secret that Jackman did steroids for Wolverine. And you can't tell me that Cavill isn't on all kinds of cycles.

I agree. I'm 6'1" and have never been over 200 lbs. When I was in my early 20s I tried like a maniac to gain muscle (and I did...a little). I didn't know back then how important nutrition is, but for many people it's
really hard to pack on a lot of muscle. You have to constantly eat in a calorie surplus and eat tons of protein. And even then there are significant limitations as to how much muscle you can actually put on.
Every time I hear a woman tell me that she doesn't want to lift weights because she's afraid it will bulk her up it drives me crazy. Unless you are really trying (eating a shit ton), you're not going to bulk up.
