They use steroids, sometimes they even die from them like Johnny Perry did. At least that's what it was attributed to by his family .... Here's a link reporting his death http://www.wral.com/news/1801726/detail.html
They run the biggest cycles ever dont they, i remember bdtr saying even he was scared of there doses :shock:
They take more juice than anybody. Whit Baskin was supposedly taking 7 grams of test a week.
Coke and speed are really big too, as stimulants during the competitions.
I think of strength athletes as the most extreme of the extremists. They're nuts.
Asking if strong men us AS is like asking if Ronnie Colemen uses hgh. :wg:
From what I understand, Johnny Perry died from cocaine. His enlarged heart was probably from his steroid use. Coke and roids don't mix.Quote:

They are actually high on cocaine when they do the competition?? Or am I reading this wrong.

Yhea "Coke" can add strength to an already very strong person. I use to work in a jail while in college to help make ends meet. We use to get these guys brought in during the early morning hours. It was unbelieveable. Now I'm a pretty "Muscled Up" guy, but I had a hell of a time controlling these Coke heads when they where brought in High on Coke. We had this little guy one night break a pair of handcuffs. I'm talking about a little guy who went about 160lbs. This guy was wacked out of his mind on the stuff. Screaming, kicking, you name it. Well he broke his hand cuffs, while cracking the bones in his wrist and it didn't phase him. I know this is hard to believe. I honestly wouldn't have believed it if I had not seen it. "Coke" has that effect on certain personalities.
i have also heard nightmare freakish strength stories of people high on PCP
I bet hulk hogan can be the worlds strongest old man haha him and macho
I've decided once i get off the cycle i want to be known as Macho surfstud
Or Hulkmaniac
anyone ever see the "chappelle show" skt where4 tyrone biggums- a notorious crack addict get a drink call "red balls" which is suposed to be cocaine in a can, and he picks up a bus (while this is happening the audio is the bionic man music the nnnnnannnnnannnnnannaaaaa)to grab a dime underneath the bus! its actually really funny
Has anyone tried coke in a powerlifting competition? Or strongman competition? Isn't that shit highly addictive? I am assuming you use it once or twice a year, and that is at a competition. Does anyone know of someone who tried it at a competitions and got hooked?
My dad worked out with a world's strongest man winner (dont want to say the name). He personally witnessed him juicing.
I bet it was Kaz...I dont expect an answer...Quote:

It's sad when someone is on 7 grams of test a week. The funny thing is that these guys are from all around the world and they're all probably taking the same type and amount of roids. These guys are ****ing beasts. I know it takes something more to elevate to that level. But damn, these guys are nuts.
They use crazy amounts of gear, just like the bodybuilders, it wouldn't surprise me if some of them rivalled big ron and cutler on the gear front and I dread to think what those 2 guys take!
they must have good doctors who know what their doing and keep track of minutia.
Dude! Coke, juicing, lifting competitions at tropical places! Where do I sign up for this Strong Man stuff! Non-stop partying man!
haha. that's the funniest post ever!
It's the life isn't it?Quote:

To answer your question of if these guys can get hooked on "Coke" the first couple of times they use it....the answer is yes. But you have to think. If these guys are using "Coke" to compete it also becomes a part of their weekly training. If they are using Coke for the strength increase don't you think they use it to train to??? It has been awhile since I've been around the BB scene. But there have been many top bodybuilders of the past that have fallen due to their drug problems and primarily Coke. Mike Christian who was a top Olympia competitor in the late 80's and early 90's had a real Coke problem. So did Mike Quinn. These guys all hit rock bottom because of the Coke. Mixing Coke w/ heavy dosages of steriods is a serious problem. I know years ago when Craig Titus use to train w/ us here in Houston before moving out to California he use to get all kinds of Coked up before working out just for the "Focus and strength increase". The way these guys see it, bigger weights mean bigger muscles. "So if I take Coke and I can lift more than that means I can get bigger muscles and be stronger. I can tear the muscles up with the coke and let the Roids rebuild them." Dangerous mind set in my opinion. And just look how great Craig is doing now. He's sitting in a county jail cell in Las Vegas awaiting trial for charges of murder.
To answer your question...yes these guys can get hooked on Coke and more than likely are.
I work in private security and I can verify that coke and PCP can equate to some insane strength and pain numbing. If you are trying to control someone under the influence of one of these drugs you essentially end up breaking their limbs - joint locks just to not work to encourage cooperation like they do on normal people. It is like they do not feel the pain... scary really.Quote:

I said to myself the other day that I could never see using that crap on a regular basis but if I made it to WSM or something like that, a one time use might be worth it if I don't get hooked. Thanks for the post! I don't suppose anyone knows was ratio or percentage of WSM competitors use these types of addictive drugs.
