And that's why Ronnie, Jay and other abusers are alive and well. Narcotics are usualy a culprit in these "steroid deaths".

I remember him posting on Meso in 99. Big big dude but in reality just too much of a junkie.
-
30 pills of xtc e.d.
his brain is fried.
-
did party drugs or bodybuilding drugs mainly kill him?
I can't see how ecstasy and cocaine could give him a heart attack if he stopped using it?

Rec drugs and gear don't mix.

Chronic Hypertension is far more culpable in heart failure then party drugs. Just think about the effects of very high pressure on a closed system has, which the circulatory system essentially is.
Hypertension is one of the leading causes of both heart failure and the renal failure.
Monitor yours as well as your BUN and creatinine levels (indicators of renal function)

SORRY FOR THE LENGTH OF THIS POST BUT FOR SOME REASON I COULD NOT CREATE A LINK TO THE WEBSITE, SO THIS IS A COPY AND PASTE. I NEVER KNEW NOR MET THE MAN SO I CAN'T OFFER ANY PERSONAL COMMENT, BUT THE FOLLOWING IF TRUE IS BEYOND MY BELIEF WITH THE EXCEPTION OF ONE INDIVIDUAL I KNEW MANY YEARS AGO AND IS STILL ALIVE TODAY.
The tragic case of body builder Justin Rys .
Posted by rogerbrooking on November 21, 2011
Posted in: Prisoners stories. 5 Comments
This is a sad story. It’s about a man with an obsession – an obsession which is so out of control, it’s killing him. That man is Justin Rys, New Zealand’s most successful body builder. He has won a number of titles in his short life including Mr New Zealand, Mr Australasia and Mr Oceania.
To help build body mass, Mr Rys uses steroids, growth hormones and other drugs. The steroids have enlarged and weakened his heart, which has led to breathing difficulties. By the time he was 24, his heart was already so weak that he collapsed one day and had to be taken to hospital. He was told he could be dead within five years. But Mr Rys was a driven man and figured he had nothing to lose – and now he was going to die anyway. Once he got out of hospital, he continued using body building drugs and working out.
Fantasy (GHB and GBL)
One of the drugs he used was GBL a Class B drug with the street name – Fantasy. GBL promotes the body’s production of growth hormone and strengthens muscle tone. In the US, it is used as a treatment for cataplexy – a condition in which patients lose muscle tone and collapse. Mr Rys began using GBL at age 19. Eventually he was taking up to 120 mls a day – enough to kill a recreational user. (A recreational dose, inducing a pleasant sense of well-being, is about 2 – 4 mls.)
GBL was made illegal in New Zealand in 2002 by which time Mr Rys had already been using it for five years. In 2007, at the age of, he was arrested for importation and given a nine year sentence – reduced on appeal to seven years. He was released on parole in 2010. Soon after, he headed to Fiji where steroids and GBL could be legally purchased at chemist shops. Not surprisingly, his heart condition deteriorated rapidly. He returned to New Zealand after only two months, collapsed getting off the plane and spent 10 days in hospital. This time the specialists told him he probably had only 12 months to live.
Megarexia
This is seriously compulsive behaviour and one can’t help but wonder why someone would do this to themselves. The reality is that Mr Rys is driven by something stronger than drug addiction. He has muscle dysmorphic disorder, sometimes known as megarexia. When he looks in the mirror, he sees himself as small even though he looks massive compared to you and I. Megarexia is the opposite of anorexia in which those afflicted are so obsessed with their weight, they may starve themselves to death.
When Mr Rys got out of hospital, his heart specialist told him he had to lose weight – no easy task for someone with megarexia. But he tried and over the next six months he lost about 20kg. But losing weight made him depressed and he didn’t feel any better. He was going to die anyway so what difference did it make – the allure of the Fantasy came back to his mind.
It was then that Mr Rys discovered a beauty product called EzFlow Tip Blender which was 70% GBL, 30% alcohol and available on TradeMe This product is used by beauticians up and down the country and imported into New Zealand by a company in Whakatane. The owner of this company said she had been importing it since 2003 (after GBL was declared illegal). She even has a dangerous goods certificate from the Customs Service giving her permission.
After further investigation, Mr Rys found that GBL is also a naturally occurring by product in the manufacture of wine and most wines contain small quantities. It’s also used in a variety of industrial products. The fact that GBL is present in so many other products and EzFlow Tip Blender was being imported with the blessing of the Customs Service lulled Mr Rys into a false sense of hope – or fantasy – perhaps EzFlow Tip Blender was not an illegal product. So he imported large quantities for his personal use from the same company in the United States that the beauticians in New Zealand get it from.
One law for Justin Rys…
The Customs Service didn’t like that. Mr Rys was known to have a criminal record. So they prosecuted him and charged him with importation of a Class B drug. They didn’t charge beauticians who had been breaking the law for nine years; nor did they charge anyone importing wine containing GBL. As far as the Customs Service is concerned, there seems to be one law for Justin Rys and another one for everyone else using this product.
Mr Rys is currently on remand in Rimutaka prison. His health is so poor, he takes seven different medications. His heart is so weak, he gets short of breath and struggles to breathe at night. He has apnoea – he stops breathing when he falls asleep and requires an oxygen mask to assist his breathing. Without the mask, he almost suffocates in his sleep which wakes him up. This happens dozens of times a night.
Recently, the machine which drives the oxygen into the’ mask stopped working. After a distressing and sleepless night, Mr Rys advised the prison nursing staff that he was couldn’t breathe and needed a new machine. The nurses ignored him. Mr Rys advised nursing staff every day for the next 2˝ weeks that he was suffocating in his sleep and needed help. He could easily have died during the night but the nurses didn’t seem to care. It was only when Mr Rys’ lawyer contacted the prison manager about the problem that any action was taken. The next day, he was taken into Hospital and given a new machine. Even with the mask, the fact remains that because of years of steroid and other drug use, he has severe health problems and could die at any time.
No treatment
Mr Rys’ addiction is unusual. He has two drivers for his drug addiction – muscle dysmorphic disorder which is a life threatening mental health condition and the addictive nature of the drugs themselves. Making matters worse, he has never had any treatment. He had a few counselling sessions with a psychologist in prison and subsequently had one session with a psychiatrist at the Wellington hospital alcohol and drug service (CADS). Unfortunately, the psychiatrist didn’t think he needed to see him again and discharged him.
In other words, Mr Rys’ obsession with muscle size has not been understood as a life threatening condition by psychiatrists, let alone by the Courts or by Corrections Department psychologists. Instead of receiving treatment, he has been hounded by the Customs Service and punished by the justice system. Instead of being sent to a clinic where he could receive specialized care for his condition he has been sent to prison where his health needs are largely ignored.
Unusual or not
This is an unusual case – or is it. In fact there are hundreds of people in prison with alcohol and drug problems driven by mental health disorders that have never even been diagnosed, let alone treated. This is one of the reasons that so many offenders relapse and re-offend as soon as they get out – and why 52% of prisoners New Zealand are back inside within five years. Mr Rys’ case is not unusual. It’s just that he’s a big man with a big heart – and he stands out in a crowd, especially a crowd of beauticians.

"He admits to using large amounts of party drugs, up to 30 ecstasy pills a night - "the good ones not the shitty ones"."
Nobody could possibly consume 30 real tabs/capsules of MDMA in one night. Nobody. As absurd as eating 15,000 calories daily or taking 500 mg of Anadrol daily. Can not be done.

What kind of footprint did he have? What real contests has he won? I keep reading that he won Mr. Oceania. Be honest, can you name another Mr. Oceania winner... ever? I never heard of this contest until I started seeing clips of this guy about a year or two ago. Is he just famous for body dismorphia and drug abuse... and nothing else? Bah!

There is only so much you can do to your body before it starts to fight back. He pushed the envelope. Its still sad that he could not fight his addictions. PIP!

X2. I work in the medical field and we call hypertension the silent killer becUse it absolutely is. It is the underlying cause for an endless list of other diseases. Whether this guys health problems were caused by rec drugs or steroids could be debated for ages. Probably a combination. Let's not pretend that modern bodybuilding without rec drugs is healthy though, cuz we all know it ain't.

Stunts post was sad to read.
Unhealthy Sport Of Peace
RIP Justin

he posted his drug protocols years back on promuscle. He ate clenbuterol like candy.
-
RIP Justin, truth be told if it wasn't for his stint in prison he would have died years earlier, jail prolonged his life. He was a nice guy just plagued with addiction, guy had so much visable scar tissue in his delts and arms it was ridiculous.
Still a sad day when someone so young passes even if its from self harm.
This should be a lesson to all the bodybuilders out there trying to overcome average genetics with mgs and Ius, in this sport you either have the genetics or you don't, those who don't and take more, this is how it ends.

Yep, once again...as Arthur Jones said "Great bodybuilders are born not made much baseball or football players, etc.."

His case is a good one showing why drugs should be legalized.
He was basically forced to break laws and import various unknown substances without proper quality controls.
I agree taking 30 proper MDMAs would be unrealistic but again this shows the problem with unregulated estacy. As for 500mg anadrol a day, with Justin I actually think he would and could take that amount. Rich Gaspari and Mattarazo both took such amounts apparently as do some powerlifters.

As legal argument or apologia this is a failure. What "forced" him to do this? For what purpose? If he did this in order to secure medicine for his dying parent or child you have a case. Right now, you sound silly.

Who the fuck necks 30 pills in a night? You'd end up eating your own face on that much mdma.

Not sure about ecstasy but I witnessed a guy take 50 ephedrine hydrochloride at one time he did this on a regular basis for a while. I've known people to take up to 400 my of drol daily.

With all the drugs these undercover manlets take its as though these stooped people take their life into their hands. Unfortunately their hands shake as though attached to Michael J. Fox holding a Crocodile Dundee knife. Hilarity ultimately ensues.

Drive home was problematic I can tell you.

He will not recover.

Sad, yes, but he had it coming.
As others say, one cannot do this much harm to his body over the years and expect a good outcome.
His weak mind was his downfall.
RIP, dude.
