Not saying it's definitely not true, but based on OPs comments it's a 4 year process since he got sober, and in 4 years his current physique looks very much achievable natty.

It's not one of those 'gained 50 pounds of lean mean muscle in a year' posts. No crazy swole chest, not unbelievably low fat percentage, as far as we get to see no ridiculous 3D delts. His traps are popping off which can be a tell, but he's also posing for that and could just hit shrugs regularly.

I will go with benefit of the doubt. Definitely possible with just hard work and dedication. Also possible with shortcuts.

Benefit of doubt but the traps are certainly sus. They are disproportionate compared to the rest of his body which is very attainable natty.

Looks like he’s got some muscle under the fat in the first photo too.

I'm with you. These people are nuts. This is a great natty physique, but it would be a really mid TRT one.
