Stereotyped

ad

Here is one of the reason we are so harshly stereotyped. Over half of these deaths were blamed on use of AAS. Not sure if you all follow the WWE but I have always been a huge fan. I know it's all scripted and the punches and kicks are fake but it's still fun and very intertwining. These guys ate phenomenal athletes and there have been a ton of guys and girls with tremendous physiques.

Sorry mods if this is not in the right forum.

The majority of deaths from steroid use come from mixing them with narcotics. Look into the effects of cocaine and other stimulants on blood platelets and such. Not to mention the high blood pressure some narcotics cause and gear can cause if you don't know how to control sides. Get bloods keep blood pressure and lipids in check most importantly and you're doing all you really can to be safe. 99% of sides can be controlled. The only one that can't is LVH and other issues of heart growth but according to my doctor it's rare. Most of us use pretty conservative doses and control sides as well as live a healthy life style free of alcohol and drugs. Healty diet, lots of water and proper ancillaries and OTC support supps. But the biggest issues are narcotic and durietic abuse. One must watch kidney and lipids like a hawk.

Nicely put.

"According to both Dave Meltzer of WrestlingObserver.com and Mike Johnson of PWInsider.com, Buddy Landel was involved in a serious car accident over the weekend, but checked himself out of the hospital sometime on Sunday and was later found to be unresponsive by his wife at their home together."

Don't see where this was attributed to aas use/abuse.

Did the link not load? It was a slide show with 31 people and the story of how they died. Not just buddy landell death.

It loaded. I thought you were referring to Buddy.
Pro wrestling has a bad track record. There are many factors involved in most of their deaths. Unfortunately, most like to focus on aas, drugs, etc., which garner more press.

I agree with you.

I LOVED WRESTLING GROWING UP!!! Some of those guys in the article were before my time. I grew up with the nwo/wolf pack/ d generation x/the rock when he was up and coming /stone cold Steve Austin

My memories go back to Gene Kiniski, Bulldog Brown, Whipper Billy Watson and then Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage and a host of others.
