do you guys just not like Sly, or do you just have a problem with someone using hGH? :confused:

I don't care either way. I just think he's a dumbass for getting busted with $50k worth of illegal hgh.

So, why are you such a Sly apologist?

he has been one of my idols since I was a young teen.
 
I just have a lot of respect for him and what he has done. He started out as a "starving actor" and writer, he wrote the script for Rocky and refused to sell it unless he was the star. Despite being destitute he held out until he made it happen. Most people don't realize behind the punchy voice and muscle he is highly intelligent. After the success of Rocky he went on to write, direct and produce numerous movies. And all of that aside bodybuilding and physical fitness are a high priority for him, and at the age of 60 he makes most 20 year olds look like shit.

Rob, I'll give you all of the above but for him to bring that amount of HGH into Australia is not intelligent.

yeah, but we really don't know all of the details either.
 
Stallone is the shit.

I remember an interview with Jackie Chan where he was asked "If you could be like one American actor, who would it be?" He said without hesitation, Sylvester Stallone, saying that he was envious of his work ethic and how good he looks (body wise) while doing it. That's a big compliment coming from someone that works as hard as Jackie Chan does.

Ok politics of what he should or shouldn't do aside. How about the size of his head!! I've seen a lot of pics of him lately and if you look back to the earlier Rocky days and then now, his melon has doubled in size it seems.

Is that a side effect or symptom of HGH. I wouldn't think the cranium can expand, but they may explain the way he talks.;)

He's always talked like that. But I do agree that the size of his head has greatly expanded. The UFC guy, Tito Ortiz has also been accused of using GH. And you see the size of his head now compared to early in his career and it seems to hav doubled in size.

check out some ML Baseball players trying to fit a helmet on their heads lol
If HGH is a sideeffect i'll stick to the creatine

ADRIANNNNNNN.......

wasn't Sly happy with his body or did he need the HGH to get it back? wasn't there anything else he could do or is been 60 your body's ability to look buff just too hard to do without HGH?

thanks people and did anyone see PTI on ESPN last night :clapping:
 
you're right, he should publically state the drugs he uses that would be a good move on his part.

That might would work with people like you and me who see this as more as quality of life and not criminal. But we are in the minority here. Most would have a cow and demand he be punished criminally. Personally I would not admit to it. If he did, his acting/directing career may be over.

Risks and side effects of GH treatment

The possible risks and side effects of GH use are varied. They can occur even when used in "pharmacological doses." They include:

* swelling of the hands and feet (edema)
* thickening of the bones/jaw
* carpal tunnel syndrome/Arthralgia
* tingling in the extremities
* numbness in the hands and feet
* increased organ growth
* decreased insulin reception
* acromegaly
* decreased thyroid output

GH would also be particularly dangerous to sufferers of cancer or to individuals with an increased chance of cancer (such as regular smokers) because GH significantly increases the growth rate of cancer cells. This however does not mean that GH increases the likelihood of suffering from cancer, but rather that cancer is more aggressive (and as a consequence is more frequently detected) and it does increase significantly the mortality rate.[8]

Growth hormone - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

His waist girth increased dramatically over the years as well (GH gut perhaps?).

Just long long as he doesn't suggest that Instone products keep him going or have given him size, I don't really care what he does to himself.

What the heck is up with this vascularity?!?! I see this on more of the modern bodybuilders. People didn't used to look like this.
 
People know more about diet now. Plus the drugs help to cut down the bf %.
 
Look how tiny his forearms are. He must use straps.

That vasculature has nothing to do with diet.

It's also very localized. Probably where he is injecting 'something'. He must be a 'right delt' kind've guy.

You really think Sly knows some new 'secret' about diet that Pearl didn't?

Localized injection does not affect muscle growth or reduce fat.

actually the veins in his right delt/pec area appear to be varicose veins. :shrug:

You know... they do. :nerd: But I've seen this sort of look on MUCH MUCH younger looking modern BB'ers

Actually the prominent veins on his right pec are the result of an injury suffered while engaging in a bench press competition with franco columbo during his training for rocky 2

how does an injury cause this?
 
It doesnt.. I think its veracose veins as well
 
"My pectoralis major exploded! The muscle anchored to the ribs that holds the arm in place suffered a massive tear during the lift. Tumbling off the bench, I collapsed onto my right shoulder and stared in disbelief as the ripped veins in my right arm turned my arm nearly black and doubled its size. I'm writhing on the floor, cursing my luck, trying not to black out."

That is Sly's account from his book Sly Moves.
Also in every picture of Sly after Rocky 2 his right pec is smaller than his left, and you can also see the prominent veins displayed in this picture albeit much less prominently. I just kind of put two and two together.
Anyway just sharing what I've read and observed.
And by the way what are varicose veins exactly?
 
"Stallone claims to have been able to bench press 385-400 lbs (174.6-181.4 kg) and squat 500 lbs (226.8 kg) in his prime. While in a bench pressing contest with former Mr. Olympia Franco Columbu, he severely tore his pectoral muscle and needed over 160 stitches on it. This is why one half of his chest is more vascular than the other"

This is from Wikipedia. The original article was part of Sly's Q&A at Ain't It Cool News: The best in movie, TV, DVD, and comic book news.. I tried to find the original quote but was unsuccessful, possibly because it was originally posted late november, early december in preparation for Rocky Balboa.
