Title: WHOA! UFC Fighter Rich Franklin Spills the Beans on Testosterone!
Post by: The_Hammer on June 11, 2012, 11:11:05 PM
Damn, all of you considering using test might want to reconsider...

Rich is a very smart guy.  He's a former chemistry professor.  

http://www.mmafighting.com/ufc/2012/6/11/3078496/rich-franklin-admits-interest-in-trt-use-yeah-ive-kicked-around-that (http://www.mmafighting.com/ufc/2012/6/11/3078496/rich-franklin-admits-interest-in-trt-use-yeah-ive-kicked-around-that)

"Yeah, I've kicked around that idea and everything, and actually I’ve talked to doctors that work with the UFC and the athletic commission in Nevada and all that kind of stuff," said Franklin, who takes on Wanderlei Silva at UFC 147 later this month. "And at 37, my count obviously is not what it was when I was 25, and I’m a candidate for that kind of stuff. I haven’t started yet.

"I'm not sure if that's something I want to do or how I want to approach that, because TRT is … once you start that process it’s a permanent fixture," he continued. "Once you start putting those hormones in your body -- those synthetic hormones -- then your body is not going to produce its own hormones any more, and so you really have to think carefully. My levels are still decently healthy for a male, but they're not high enough to continue a prolonged career at a top level for many more years."

You're going to have your beans spilled if you keep this anti-steroid trolling up, homeslice.

Are you suggesting that 'The Homo's rage against all things hormonal, is a result of automatic hatred for anything on the planet that reduces penis size, and therefore potentially his lunch?

What I'm suggesting, BigCyp, is that The Homo's entire crusade against AAS was borne out of a particularly embarrassing occurrence where his roided-out former boyfriend plunged into his chocolate starfish at a peculiar angle, doing damage and filling it to the brim with an hcG-induced, DNP yellow-tinged super load that took a week to drain.

Note to Rich : Lets not blame your 'levels' on your decline in abilities over the last few years.  Your nose was almost on the side of your head when you took on Silva.  Test levels had NOTHING to do with that

as much as i like mma and the ufc most of them fighters dont have a clue about the sauce, they are doing deca and stopping 2 weeks before they get tested by the athletic commission ::) they must really be doing their research,lol. the smarter fighters where/are using HGH

This is what you should do:  Stay off anabolics when you're young.  Hopefully you've never been on.  Then, when you're about 50, get tested a few times to see if youre in range.  If not, get on HRT.

Rich is a fag. So what if you have to take one shot a week for the rest of your life. You're a professional athlete I'm pretty sure it would be worth it. He's full of shit anyway he's probably been on and off shit for decades.

I hope Wanderlia smashes his face.

Maybe Rich only uses Winstrol, Equipose, And GH..Perhaps staying away from test because it makes him bloated

Rich is a very smart guy.  He's a former chemistry PROFESSOR.

He was NEVER a chemistry professor.  In order to do that, you actually have to have a PhD.  Rich Franklin was a high school teacher and taught mathematics at the Oak Hills High School in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Here is a quote from his fighter profile on UFC.com:
"What was your job before you started fighting? I used to be a full-time high school teacher for Oak Hills Local School District.  I train full-time now."

Link to that quote: http://www.ufc.com/fighter/Rich-Franklin (http://www.ufc.com/fighter/Rich-Franklin)

then your body is not going to produce its own hormones any more

That's an absolute statement and certainly NOT true.  If you want to take medical advice from a high school math teacher, that's on you.  At the very least, make sure you get the facts straight.

Rich Franklin does not have to worry about his test levels, what he does have to worry about is brain damage from taking repeated kicks and punches to his skull.  A big percentage of retired NFL players have piss poor quality of life in their later years and they wear helmets. Yes, twenty years from now when every one has forgotten about these UFC guys there is going to be a whole host of them walking around with their names and addresses pinned to their jackets.  Look up Leon Spinks. Not a pretty way to live.

yes but claiming a professor title gives superficial credibility.

 ;D

but "hammer" knew thats no professor all along.

dont hold your breath for an apology from him, you might choke to death ;D

Oh no, I don't want an apology from him or anyone else.  

Maybe he was confused as to whether or not Franklin was a teacher versus a professor.  I'm not detracting from Franklin's abilities.  He does have both a BS and MS degree, so the man is clearly not dumb or incapable of devoting himself to long term academic work.  

Maybe "The_Hammer" misread the information and pegged Franklin as some sort of college chemistry professor, which is a far cry from a high school math teacher.

Either way, I am not quite sure why Hammer has become so anti-steroids as of late.

ppl hate what they cant have. he see's people who look like bodybuilders and thinks it's all steroids, since he's still a fat 165lbs, everybody who looks better MUST be on steroids. he'd use steroids if he could find them, but he's 17yrs old living in his parents house with no job and no money. even if he found some steroids, he has no friends to get compliments from.

it's like the trailer trash loser who drives a '84 chevy celebrity and hating the guy who drives a ferrari.

Why, he is right.

When you put Test in your body, the body stops producing it.


Point is:
When you stop putting test in your body, the body will start to produce it again, so again it is proven that "The Hammer" is a retard.
