Good thick physique - also one of the few pros who was a diabetic too.

Impressive neck/traps and forearms (all impressive but they stand out).

He was thickly built,blocky and thick joints to carry all that size,would he be considered a pioneer in insulin usage?i wonder if the amounts he took hindered or increased his abilities to grow muscle and stay healthy as a diabetic.

Unlike pros today, Tim was a type two diabetic and NEEDED insulin (might explain the bloating, and from what I understand, he is now a Pastor!

Ever since I heard he was a diabetic, I also wondered about that.

would he be considered a pioneer in insulin usage?

One, if not THE first to use insulin, yes. But the pioneer-the person to have taken insulin usage to another level and introduced it on a mainstream level, NO.
The person that really made insulin popular and brought it to the forefront, was/is Milos Sarcev!!!
There are numerous posts on various boards where he speaks about insulin. The best in my opinion being on Muscle Mayhem where Milos and Chad go head to head and "duke it out" on the subject. It's in the archived section. :)
