MTV True Life: "I'm On Steroids"

[SubliminalX]

http://tv.yahoo.com/tvpdb?d=tvp&id=...rue+LifeTrue+Life&progutn=1137283200&.intl=us

Starting this weekend and replaying all through next week. Should be interesting. They'll probably end up showing different sides of the story, i.e., one major abuser who has health problems, one guy who doesn't suffer from any undesireable effects after years of use, and probably one old fart on HRT.

Very cool post...I will watch this show even though I never watch MTV

I bet it will be total crap. From the commercials i've seen there will be some parents talking about how steroids killed their kid, a 200 lb. guy talking about how steroids helped him go from a pussy to a goliath, and there will also be people talking about how steroids are addicting. Steroids aren't fucking addicting, mentally you may love what they do to you but your body does not develop a physiological dependence to them.

 

[Tough Old Man]

I'd rather watch He Haw

Regarding physiological dependence.. couldn't HPTA suppression be considered that? Not that I think steroids are even the slightest bit "addictive" in the normal sense.

The fact that your body's testosterone production decreases with time shows that you do not develop a physical dependancy to it. If this was true, as men got older, they would all have to check into rehab to kick their 35 year old testosterone habit.

 

[gococksDJS]

Not to mention the fact that your hypothalamus and pituitary gland have many other functions than just regulating testosterone production.

people could become dependant on steroids they see themselves shrinking down to nothing and have to do another cycle it all has to do with the mind

that mental, not pyhsical

I sure will be watching. At least MTV has the balls to make a series on it, considering how it's very hush hush now and the bad publicity given to it by people such as Jose Canseco and Rafael Palmeiro.

 

[soxmuscle]

i'll be tuning in, but like cocks, i dont think its going to be a very truthful piece.

 

[SJ69]

This a bad thing, you want to keep this shyt out of the mainstream as much as possible. Last time this stuff bubbled up w/ Barry Bonds et.al. Senator Bidden liberal from Delaware decided to ban pro hormones and make criminals out of law biding citizens. Next thing you know, while protecting terrorists phone calls the liberals will want to invade our privacy looking for killer steroids.

 

[FishOrCutBait]

Im gonna watch it, think itll be interesting. Spike TV had a neat doc on a while ago, "Testosterone Boys", tracked several competing BBers, ((one had nasty gyno, if i remember correctly))

 

[redman12]

I hate MTV, what a load of shit. Sure MTV has balls but how will they repersent the ideas of legit lifters whom use gear in a constructive smart manner. Personally i feel it will give gear even more BAD pablicity.

 

[soxmuscle]

haha, what a joke this show is already..

 

[Dale Mabry]

Wow, I get mad when cars go slow in front of me, I better get off the multi-vits.

 

[soxmuscle]

what was the oral steroid that the pride fighter was taking? it couldnt be nolva because he described it as an oral steroid..

 

[goandykid]

wow...

i jsut turned it off after the gay guy said

"i woke up one morning and wanted to take my life yada yada "(od'ed on tylonel...what a rebel huh )

and then he said " the steroids were controlling my mind"

 

[Curlingcadys]

at least the guy going for the mag. shoot at made a statement about diet in the begining, so the show wasn't a total loss!

I'm betting winstrol.

The biggest of the 3 guys, said he'd been on cycle for 5 months, took 4 weeks off, and then was back on. he seemed weak as shit too? My gym has a Hammer bench press machine like the one they showed, and 2-4 plates is absolutely pathetic.

The gay (as of the end of the show) had run 4-5 cycles, and still was a pathetically small and weak.

The fighter thought being off of steroids for 1 month would make him test clean? wtf.

EXACTLY what i was going to say.


They get a 210lb tool who thinks he's "Zeus". They get a half ass fighter with a bad temper. And they get a psychologically fucked up homo all to juice.

Not to mention that little bullshit with the "OHHH, steroids killed my son b/c he wanted to make the Major Leagues".

There's gonna be some mass murder tonite, boys.
First one's on me. Here's the gay guy:

Absolutely.

God MTV sucks.

 

[Flex]

I thought you guys would get a kick outta this...

One of my best buddies, a guy who frequents bolex, said that a producer from this show came on looking for people.

They all told him to go fuck off. haha

i think the need motivation link in ur profile is dead, what did it go to?

it jsut timed out on me.

anyways, obviously jsut manipulated and edited by MTV, but thats to be expected. The gay guy was jsut fucking ridiculous. I had a luaghing out loud moment w/ the "steroids were controlling my mind" part.

 

[gococksDJS]

Stupidest shit I ever saw. He waited a whole 2 weeks between cycles.

 

[FishOrCutBait]

The steroids were controlling my mind... Hmmm...

STEROIDS IS NANO-MIND CONTROL MACHINES!!!!

 

[I'm Trying]

dumb show....

 

[I'm Trying]

The fighter's fiance is a hot POA!!

 

[vette1derek]

None of them but the faget can do their own shots.
