Lavar Ball loses LOWER LEG

[Harry B]

I saw Mike Williams (WR from USC from 2002-2003) and I was stunned at how much he ballooned. You wouldn't have known he played wide out.

I always just assumed the simple energy in minus energy out.

When you stop working out 4-5 hours per day, but you still eat almost the same amount. That energy will get stored

Given that you’re not very interested in things like health and fitness, it’s a very simple trap.

We’ve even seen athletes become visibly fat during vacation

YOURE OVERTHINKING IT.

HEA SIMPLY SAYING THE
FAT nikka DOESNT LOOK LIKE
HE WAS AN ATHLETIC FOOTBALL
PLAYER AT ONE POINT



​

Touche. Im trying to think of the worst one in terms of letting themselves, go. Its funny because alot of the OLineman slim down. See Jeff Saturday, Mark Schelererh, Joe Thomas etc .

He trying to keep it fun but you can tell when that camera goes off he dealing with that shyt. I don’t know what happened, but it’s always fukked up seeing your parents get old like that.

Mike Williams was a huge wideout, though. 6'5" 240. Its not like youre talking about a Marvin Harrison or Issac Bruce..

Yeah but Calvin, Vincent Jackson, Brandon Marshall and Plaxico Burress don't /didn't look that rotund post career. They had similar measurements in their playing careers.

Yeah, they dont. Point taken, brother..

 

[FlimFlam]

THATS BECAUSE MOST
ATE AND DRANK LIKE shyt
THEIR WHOLE LIVES
BUT BEING AN ATHLETE
KEPT THEM IN SHAPE ON
THE OUTSIDE....

ONCE THEY RETIRED
THEY CONTINUED TO EAT
AND DRINK LIKE shyt UNTIL
THEIR HEALTH DECLINED


​

as fundamental of a component as diet it, it goes well beyond that as well

I'd say it's also a testsment to how physical health can't be detatched from social health of an individual or a people. being subjected to such a hostile environment for generations at this point will help foster poor health outcomes

a celebrated medical journalist once noted that Harlem had a public health profile that was more comparable to Bangladesh than the rest of lower Manhattan. Such extremes can't be limited to diets

Prayers to him and his fam man. I hate speculatin but my grandaddy had the same shyt was diabetes and he still ain't care bout his diet and ate like a teen deep into his 60s until it was too late







that should not be no diet for someone pushin 60 if they want more longevity

We gotta start focusin on our diets and specially older folk who ain't on that wave. I know a bunch of brehs and brehettes in recent years been much more health conscious wit they diet but a lot of this shyt is really preventable dawg. If you don't care and eat what ya wanna that ya life but it suck to see shyt like this.....

Confirmed diabetes.... Hope he clean that diet up man

IT REALLY CAN BECAUSE WE EAT "SOUL FOOD"
AKA SLAVE FOOD ALL OF OUR LIVES
AND ITS THE BIGGEST KILLER IN THE COMMUNITY.

THEN WE PASS THESE AILMENTS
DOWN TO OUR OFF SPRING GENETICALLY
SO ITS BEEN A CYCLE FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS

that slave food diet is an well recited but poorly researched trope. people arent living off of corn mush or grains and legumes.. to refer to a standard American diet as slave food is ahistorical . but the ultimate point about poor diets is valid

just consider the physical environmental conditions of a place like Selma Alabama and the surrounding communities. They are so atrocious the United Nations had to issue a report . these generatiomal conditions arent limited to that surveyed area. A Mind is A Terrible Thing to waste by Harriet A Washington and Packing Them In by Sylvia Washington are both recommended texts .

we can keep going. As paramount as diets are, alone , diets are merely a solution that doesn't solve. that bangladesh comparison wasn't merely a figure of speech .
