    Speaking of meth... it is funny how crackheads can inject themselves with random shit and be fine(ish) and yet we have to get blood work done and be careful with steroids.

    life is crazy.

    Crackheads don't need to worry about getting sued and/or malpractice insurance.

    And bingo was his name O

    Big Pharma was sued in essence because they created a false medical condition. If you really want to break the TRT litigation down to the nitty gritty.

    Hey lets create a medical condition that basically encompasses every symptom in the book so everyone thinks they have it and lets make the diagnostic criteria for doctors so fucking vague everyone gets sold a script.

    The dangers of direct to consumer advertising.

    There are legitimate uses for TRT, not saying that, but lets not give the shit out like M&Ms because someone doesn’t feel like their 19 at 40.

    While I’m on my soap box let me say I’m pissed more docs didn’t get sued. They should have known better and not given their old, obese, high CVD risk patients TRT and not given them instructions to either donate blood or regularly blood let (for people like me who cannot donate blood). Thats not big pharmas fault thats yours.

    Which is sad because our docs are so incompetent in this nation that if PEDs do become legal its likely they won’t know how to help their patients regulate their levels safely. So folks are almost safer doing shit themselves they buy from God knows where.

    I’d like to see it legal but unfortunately is it going to improve the safety?

    People who abuse those drugs long term are not fine(ish). I am not aware of very many 60 year old long time crack users.

    Are you sure these aren’t 30 year olds that look 2 decades older?

    Most people who use and never get clean don’t live very long.

    Life expectancy of chronic daily users of cocaine, meth, and opioids is 50%+ less than if they had never used.
    So in other words, life expectancy is cut in half.

    Thanks for sharing your story and also thanks for your service. Leo also :thumbsup:

    I have one of those pull up bars that fits over the door jam and I barely trust that ... I imagine I would be talking to a lawyer about that certain product.

    Awesome positive attitude though and really this technical age some kind of bionic eye stem cell gene therapy breakthrough could just be right around the corner:fingerscrossed:

    Over the years I've known countless people on steroids HGH insulin Etc and every one of them looks like s*** when they get off and are weaker for it. If you eat right and train consistent you can look awesome into old age and have high test levels look at Clarence Bass who says trt is BS

    I’m very pro-natural athlete for myself, but my goal is health, longevity, and personal development.

    No problems with people who choose PED life. In fact... its probably the way sports should go. Think about it, in an all natural world only those people who are genetically gifted reach the top. So to ban PEDs is to not provide the opportunity to others who weren’t genetically blessed the opportunity to put in the work and succeed.

    I do not think I personally possess the genetic ability to qualify for the Boston Marathon. I bet a VO2 max test would prove it.
    But what if I wanted to? What if I was willing to put in the same effort as the champions and blood dope to get my VO2 max artificially what someone like Ryan Halls VO2 max is naturally?
    Why not level the playing field?

    If people want to sacrifice it all for the sport, go for it.
    But you do have to understand the sacrifice and be man enough to accept it.

    I like the discussion about PED use in sports and legalization.

    PEDs only shrink the testes, easy way to fix that and is to use HCG. Also, fiance doesn't care much about the testes, only the shaft is what gets her off, my balls are just in the way! LOL

    Post career pro level bodybuilders are typically diabetic from insulin use. from what I understand food timing after dosing insulin is critical to prevent a crash or in some cases death. I may be incorrect on the timing stuff but insulin is bad stuff.
    Most 70s era bodybuilders are still kicking. Franco Columbu died at 78 swimming off of the coast of Sardinia. Most people would’ve died sooner shitting in a bed for months.

    Bro my balls are huge so I could use some shrinkage... But yeah, I used HCG and didn't see any sign of it.

    The "roids shrink your dick" thing cracks me up... My woman didn't notice anything smaller. In fact, she is all about this test cycle since my libido has been through the roof lol its been crazy.

    I agree with being more open about it and legalizing. Mostly 'cause I think gov should restrict less rather than more. Personal freedom/responsibility.

    But level the playing field wouldn't quite happen. The genetically gifted (most of them) would dope as well and be that much further ahead. It would most likely push records and help people do it safely.
