It couldn't be the insane amount of shit he injects and ingests on a daily basis or the heavy ass weights he presses but yeah one slight twinge and you can fuck yourself up bad.  Saw one guy once doing overheads and turned his head for a sec to see something and his shoulder popped out and the bar crashed straight in his head.

Too bad though for Ronnie.  He was primed for number 9,

Coleman has disc & nerve damage at C4/C5/C6. His visible symptoms are absolutely textbook.

 ;D Negative my man. Baby OIL on the floor would indicate a certain level of gayity. Baby POWDER on the floor, indicates someone was doing heavy deadlifts and wanted the bar to move/slide over his thighs without binding.

   Any treatments that would repair it? Surgery?

Yes, but a bit tricky (as it applies to Ronnie) and the results are not always absolute. Most Neuro surgeons say, that nerves regenerate (if they are going to) at a rate of approx one inch per month. In Ronnie's case, it appears the visible damage, the atrophy that has occurred to his triceps and lat, is 14 - 18 inches from his spinal cord. That would of course mean a healing time of 14 - 18 months, IF healing takes place. That differs from person to person, unfortunately.

The healing could only take place if the damaged area was able to be repaired, and even then, nerve regeneration is not always predictable (from what I've heard & read). Plus, after the procedure was done, most likely "anterior cervical disc excission & fusion" he would be instructed not to to "load his spine" aka place vertical pressure on his back, for quit some time, if ever again, at the level he would require to train as a pro bodybuilder.

  Thanks bro. I think I'd try it if I were him.

I'm smelling an owner of gym setting himself up for a multi/million dollar lawsuit...

In unrelated news, the CEO of Albertsons super market admitted that a woman slipped on a slippery floor that the janitor just mopped and didn't put up a slippery when wet sign up...A settlement between 2 million and 8 million dollars was reached...Janitor Brian "Backdoor" Bullman could not be reached at the time of press...News at 11

Spot on Tommy. I don't think Ronnie's nerves are regenerating though, based on the last pics we saw of him guest posing, where the atrophy looks just as bad as it ever was. Besides, I for one don't want to see him compete cause he's gone saggy all over and he'd look like a real mess if he did. Maybe he's into competing but it's not going to do anything other than taint his legacy some more - no one wants to see Ronnie out of the top 6 with one side looking way more muscular and fuller compared to the atrophied side.

We totally agree. Ronnie's done everything in bodybuilding- won everything in bodybuilding. Why continue?

The reason I would think he would have the problem surgically repaired, would be so he is pain free for the next 20 - 30 years, and to stop the condition & symptoms from getting worse. Once he loses all that crazy mass, the imbalances will not be visible to most people, whereas now, bodybuilding nuts like us see it immediately.  ;D

hmmmm interesting.

Personally i think Ronnie just have nerve damage. His whole left side shrunk. I highly doubt he tore his left lat, left tricep and left quad.
No doubt about it...

A bit move expensive, BUT totally different. Remember... Chalk to GRIP... BABY POWDER to SLIP. Chalk the hands and powder the thighs. You will only do it wrong one time.  :D

I'm guessing Ronnies training was fucked up after meeting a certain someone...People thought Tiger Woods was going to be worse he got serious...But my guess is that Tiger's wife wasn't out asking for a $10 to anyone and everyone with a camera :-\...

Agreed! Images of men in thongs = epic stirring in the loins, no arguments.

Branch Warren was said to have told Adam (The True Adonis) back at that show Adam did the Getbig coverage for where Branch guest-posed, that Ronnie tore his lat doing T-Bar rows with 14 plates.

Maybe Adonis was drunk on expensive wine and didn't properly comprehend what Branch had actually said, Jeff?
