pretty crazy of him to still be on the juice tho, doesnt really make any sense for a 51yr old to still be doing that.

most 51 year olds are "on the juice" by, at least they should be. By then your test levels have tanked anyway, hrt is becoming very common.Originally Posted by bigredelts

I used to train in his gym evry time i would come down to the french south cost beach.
The man was never a fan of very heavy lifting, always went for quality of the movement, not quantity of the weights, perfect form on evry exercises, very inspirational. His physique speaks for himself, one of the most aesthetic physique of the history of the sport.

One of the greatest bodybuilding pics IMO. Despite the pec tear (in the recent pics) he still looks incredible. Very vascular and dry too.''There’s this battle over waterboarding at places like Guantanamo Bay. I think that they should just say, “Hey, if you guys don’t talk, you have to see Hercules In New York.” I guarantee those guys would talk much faster. You don’t need to do waterboarding or anything else. That’s the ultimate threat.''

Why do you think 51old shouldn't want to look like that??? People want to be young and look young as much as possible. To say true - I don't know a reason why ppl like him shouldn't be on juice at that age if they can.Originally Posted by bigredelts

incredible. those shoulders are ridic i see no problem with him doing what he does. as mentioned his test levels are prob so low at that age that this makes him feel great and if he can gain from it and still do what he loves than why not.

well granted there would be benefits for test levels to stay healthy at that age, but after a life time of drugs already, one would think he might cut back a bit, i doubt he is competing anymore, so to take drugs to stay up with what he used to look like doesnt make sense.Originally Posted by IwillBaMonster

Well I can relate to your point to some extent, but when a man does all life what he loves to do I think it's pretty hard to stop just because of age (if your health is OK). And we don't know how much he takes overall.. Hell, some guys now juice being over 60.
