There’s no doubt that Kristen Nun has achieved some great success from flexing her impressive physique on social media. And that kind of success always draws attention from people who immediately say it’s all down to steroids.
While PED use is widespread in the bodybuilding and fitness industry, I find that making such claims without any substantial research is unfair to the girl.
That’s why I’ve spent the last few days going through her social media accounts to see if there’s any truth to the claims that her physique isn’t natural.
Here’s what I found.
Is Kristen Nun On Steroids?
There’s no conclusive evidence to suggest that Kristen Nun has taken steroids. She posted her testosterone results to prove that she doesn’t inject testosterone, however, that’s not to say she hasn’t dabbled in other PEDs.
Having researched her physique in depth, I’ve identified a few features of her physique which imply that she is indeed natural, however, other features which may suggest she’s taking some form of PEDs.
Let’s take a look at these in more detail.
Reasons Why Kristen Nun Looks Natty
Lack of Facial Hair
One of the most common problems women experience with PEDs is that they start growing facial hair, like a man.
Looking through Kristen Nun’s Instagram, it’s clear to see that she doesn’t have any facial hair.
That being said, you could argue that if she did, she’d simply shave it off.
Normal Voice Tone
Another common problem female steroid users encounter is a deep, masculine voice.
In fact, some female steroid users have to go through surgery to increase the pitch of their voice.
Having listened to many of Kristen Nun’s interviews, it’s clear that she has a normal, feminine voice tone and that she doesn’t experience this side effect.
This suggests that she’s natural and hasn’t taken anabolic steroids.
Lack of HGH Gut
Many steroid users include human growth hormone (HGH) as part of their steroid cycle. One of the side effects of this is that organs can swell up, and that pushes out the so-called HGH gut.
Looking at many different photos of Kristen Nun over the years, there’s no evidence that she suffers from HGH gut which suggests that she doesn’t take steroids.
Reasons That Suggest Kristen Nun Takes Steroids
Oversized Shoulders
Oversized shoulders are a common sign of PED use. This is because the deltoids and traps in the upper back have a large number of androgen receptors.
As a result, you often see steroid users with shoulders which are out-of-proportion, and Kristen Nun’s shoulders seem to be huge compared to the rest of her body.
Extreme Vascularity
Most bodybuilders – male and female – desire those popping veins. They’re a good indicator of how much muscle and little fat you have.
But certain types of steroids will produce those vascular veins even if you’re not working out.
Looking at Kristen Nun’s Instagram profile, you can see that she has veins popping out multiple muscle groups, which may suggest that she takes some form of steroids.
Low Body Fat Levels
One of the easiest ways to catch out a fake natty is to see how their body fat levels change when they bulk.
No matter how gifted your genetics are and how much you train, bulking up whilst maintaining a sub 12% body fat as a female is nearly impossible.
The fact that Kristen Nun appears to be around 10% body fat after a bulk suggests that she may take some form of PED.
Fast Bulking Process
No matter how gifted your genetics are and how much you train, building muscle takes time.
To look like Kristen would take many, many years and the only way to significantly speed this process is through PEDs.
The fact that Kristen has managed to bulk up significantly while maintaining a low body fat hints at steroid use.
Is It Possible To Bulk Up Like Kristen Nun Naturally?
In my opinion, I don’t think it’s possible to achieve Kristen Nun’s physique naturally as a female.
While Kristen clearly trains hard and eats a clean diet, it would be nearly impossible to achieve her physique purely through good genetics.
Conclusion
In summary:
- Kristen Nun has never admitted to taking steroids, however there are many features of her physique which suggest steroid use.
- Achieving Kristen’s physique purely through exercise and diet is nearly impossible.
That’s all for Kristen Nun, but is Max Euceda natty? Or is Dana Linn Bailey natty?
