Title: Ronnie Coleman needs another spinal surgery
Post by: SF1900 on February 07, 2019, 04:07:31 AM

The light of my day these days is hanging with my baby girls at McDonald’s while healing at the same time. One week after 4 level neck fusion surgery I’ve never felt as good as I do now. God is good all the time. Although I’m hoping this is my last surgery I’m very optimistic it will not be the last one but I can hope and dream. My Dr did tell me I need spine correctory surgery, I’m just enjoying being almost pain free. Just the thought of being pain free brings a big ole smile to my face.

I can't even begin to imagine the amount of pain killers this man must be taking.

Ron is an orthopedic surgeon cash cow... so is Hulk Hogan.

This. I have one back surgery, and I gained a new definition of pain.  
Is he getting fusions? With fusions, the rest of the discs go out in time.

Yes he's had too many fusions, or re-do fusions to count. Needing "corrective surgery" means he is likely developing a deformity.  :-\

Title: Re: Ronnie Coleman needs another spinal surgery
Post by: oldtimer1 on February 08, 2019, 03:48:11 PM
Without drugs he would have been an incredible muscular gym rat. Maybe capable of winning something like a Mr. Texas contest. Instead of 800lbs squats and dead he might have been limited to 600lbs. Maybe a 405lbs bench. He would be healthy and strong now instead of a cripple if my crystal ball is working. I wish him nothing but the best but if you put rocket fuel in a car and floor it eventually that fast car's motor will self destruct.

First, how says powerlifters don’t have back injuries?
Also, you need to add lifting form and after care into the mix.

There are plenty of powerlifters and strongmen that are incredibly fucked up physically, they just don't have the social media presence to talk about it. 

I forgot where I read it, but a good number of the Westside Barbell guys are essentially crippled.  Having to walk down stairs backwards, start the day by crawling into a hot bath level of invalidity.

If you consistently push your body's limits, you'll be paying for it down the road.

Great post.

Westside is basically a cult.  Louie Simmons' methods have produced a lot of strong men, but he's injured many people too.  Most will be able to handle heavy training when they are young, but once you hit your late 40's and 50's all that wear and tear starts to show.  During the last 35 years of training (25 was hardcore) I've achieved some amazing results, but in hindsight I wish I taken more days off, did not lift as heavy and did less sets.  I'm not anywhere near being crippled, but my knees, shoulders and spine are paying for it now.  My heavy squat and benching days are basically over.  You young guys should take heed.

A constant 'balls to the wall' training style will end up injuring you badly.  Simmons is a sociopath who enjoys seeing people get hurt.  Misery loves company.

Though he says he made a lot of mistakes so you don't have to. He at least says he is VERY concerned with keeping guys healthy and injury free. Which of course makes sense if your goal is to have the guys perform well and hit records... injured athletes are good for nothing.
An example that just comes to mind is always wearing briefs in training, the bottom of a powerlifting suit, to save the hips.

I think they do a ton of volume and very high frequency which contributes to the wear and tear. It's not just load, even primarily.

Reminds me of Steve Goggins, this brutally strong powerlifter who claims he never had an injury through decades of lifting. Now that's crazy, basically unbelievable. Except now his one elbow doesn't extend fully.

If you lift heavy all the time, you're going to get hurt.  The human body can only take so much physical stress.  Yes, the wear and tear will also get you sooner or later.  It's a means to an end, and the end is often painful and unpleasant.

Yup.

Here's a crazy thing Chris Duffin did, which was an almost guaranteed injury. He was going to deadlift 880lbs every day for 30 days. He lasted 16 days. Now he's looking at hamstring surgery. At least no one ever did anything close Lol.

Used to watch his vids for some time and he's got a lot of great info. His body looks totally deformed/compressed though.

Louie Simmons loves lifting heavy and tearing it up, so he wears his img-uries as a badge of honor - understandably as it's his life.

Westside motto of the day - "Injury is Pain leaving da body"

Post by: honest on February 17, 2019, 01:50:22 PM
im 48 and had three discs replaced at 38, combination of impact injuries from football but overly from heavy weights causing disc generation. Unfortunately having small joints and lighter bone structures in bodybuilding helps with the illusion of size which helps in competition well it used to, but it leaves you prone to injury, this is the issue with Ronnie he has small joints and bone structures in comparison to a lot of power lifters thats why he was the best he had a huge amount of muscle but it looked bigger due to his small joints and bone structure in comparison to say a powerlifter of similar size. But it was a catch 22 as the weight required to develop the muscle stressed the internal frame his spine. He really needs to get discs replaced not fused. But at this stage i don't even think thats going to help him much. The pain must be unbelievable, once those vertebrae start clamping nerves due to disc generation it really is torture not just the pain but the muscular atrophy that goes with it all down the nerve line. really is end of days serious training wise.

No question that his drug use helped fuel his incredible mass/strength.
BUT he won the IFBB world's and pro card around 217 .
Plus he was the ONLY hvy wt to take/pass the required urine steroid test at the nationals.

I was there and Ronnie was 3rd or 4th in the heavy wts at the nationals that yr.
 Back then, every member of the US national team was drug tested.
Plus , Ronnie competed at close to 300 lbs ripped a decade later when he went full blown juice.
So he wasn't on much when turned pro at 217 ripped lbs.

I'm convinced Ronnie's training style was what eventually ravaged his physique.
The rapid , ballistic lifting of massive free wts, was VERY stressful on mos of his joints.
Similar damage occurs from fighters and football players getting hit often at high speed.
