Which ones? I heard heroin?
Mike apparently said steroids were a gateway for heroin because once he lost his fear of using needles, heroin was open territory.
Now before anyone calls BS on this, I think that makes sense. He probably would not have tried heroin if he hadn't previously lost his fear of needles.
But I don't know much about this topic. He was in the BFTO 2002 DVD looking pretty good at almost 47.
I read the same thing in an article he wrote. He also spoke of using slin in the late 80's and having close a call with it.
Beef

Yep, I read the interview where he said that, too.

Mike a mass-monster? ??? he really didn't compete at that heavy a weight and he was tall 6'1" if you ask me in this day & age he would have really prospered , he has the frame to carry a really big ammount of muscle , he had awesome delts , chest and arms , medicore legs , he couldn't hang with Haney in the size department , much like Berry Demey who also could have been much heavier.

Can't recall him admitting to heroin. He was on coke and Nubain in the 90s as I recall. During the last WBF show he went and scored coke between the prejudging and night show LOL.

coolest pro bodybuilder i ever met, really good guy.
-
It was coke and nubian.

-

Mike was a mass monster. He competed at a heavier weight than haney in 85, infact the biggest out of all the competitors that day. Unbelievable upper body and arms that put haney to shame (no great surprise there though)

Yeah, he had arms over haney but that's about it. Haney had superior pecs, back, delts, and of course lower body.

Last I heard he was involved with a bb clothing line in southern cal......that was 10 years ago, anybody know what he is doing and :D how??????
-
Mike had a sweet set of delts and arms that's for sure...
-
What you young dudes may not know is that Mike started the whole bodybuilding "Fashion" of baggy pants with his Platinum everywear. He was the originator and started that whole craze.
-
he's still training. Actually goes pretty heavy from time to time. Must be at least 50 yrs old now though

A) He was not a Mass monster.
B) I call bullshit. He went down the heroin road (or whatever drugs he took) because he chose to; steroids were in no way to blame. There are tens of thousands of gym rats all across this country who have no fear of needles, whom regularly inject, and whom have no inclination or plan to try heroin.
It’s sad he got hooked on drugs but it’s even sadder when people try to blame someone or something for their own poor choices. :'(
Steroids can be blamed for lots of problems but Mike's drug habit is not one of them.

actually, it was crack and nubain
-
I seen him the other day, looks like he slimmed down a bit...OH YEAH MIKE...I DONT HAVE CHANGE!!!
-
flex magazine had a very good two part interview with Mike Christian back in the 90's after the WBF fell through
he admitted to being hooked on cocaine
he also said that Vince fucked him over the second year; he didn't even put Christian on the WBF billboards in Mike's hometown

he trains consistently at gold's venice and does not look like a junkie or even close to homeless
-
He is doing well he bought a custom wheel shop and puts customs rims on high end cars.
He is drug free and doing well.
He calls me every once in a while.
He trains everyday at Golds Venice

At least post something worthy. Bump? 11 year bump?

Pretty decent amount of time for the bump.

I've interviewed and met Mike. He is a "jolly" kinda dude. Very pleasant.
In his day, Christian was huge. A real contender.
His Iron Warrior VHS release is still one of my faves of its kind. His personality comes through.
Way too bad that he slid into rec drug use.
Hope he's doing well. Was always nice to me.
