I thought most of the damage was done to his body because of eating habits. How much of it was due to power lifters in his era not knowing about the long term dangers of such poor eating? Or do you think that he, and powerlifting community, knew and just didn't care?
but i mean if you know your heart is messed up, why do drugs?
90 if not 95% of his issues were his bad heart to begin with, not steroids, not bad diet.
His mom and 9 of her siblings and his older brother all died from bad hearts. They werent bodybuilders, they didnt use steroids. They were just born with a death sentence.
CT has done more with a bad heart than dozens have with perfectly fine hearts.
You're making it sound like he was some hardcore juicing motherfukker for decades when that's just not the case. Yeah he used. Has he used more than some WWE superstars? Some NFL athletes? Is he the boogeyman of drug use?
Dudes diet wasn't perfect but for what he was doing it didn't need to be. He's not the boogeyman of weightlifting.
