Bodybuilding legend, Victor Martinez, has been in this business for a long time now. And his experience came in handy in guessing whether the Hollywood star Zac Effron’s breathtaking physique had the assistance of steroids or not. Martinez recently made headlines when he spoke out about Zac Efron’s alleged use of steroids for his upcoming movie projects. 

Martinez, who competed professionally for over two decades, was quick to say that Efron is consuming performance-enhancing drugs to achieve his physique.

For years, Efron has been known for his lean, muscular physique, which he has proudly displayed in films such as “Baywatch” and “Neighbors.” However, the recent revelation from Martinez has created a new buzz all across social media platforms. In a recent interview with Generation Iron, Martinez was guessing whether popular celebrities consume steroids, after seeing their pictures.

Seeing the picture of Efron, Martinez immediately said, “Dude this guy is definitely not natural.” The former Arnold Classic winner made his inference after looking at Efron’s abs. He added that the actor must be going through the transition effects of the performance-enhancing pill. “So he definitely had a D-Ball rebound going on”, Marinez claimed.
