Larry hasn't had an active role in his company since 2009 because of his condition but from what I've heard, he's still training regularly and enjoying life as best as he can bt Alzheimers doesn't get any better of course

His company is ran by his immediate family who hired Bailey Hall as CEO to run the operations.  He's really done a great job at the site design however he's brought in some questionable products like HCG and discontinued a number of Larry's fitness programs along with the forum.  But it maintains the vast majority of it company mission.

I saw Larry give a great seminar at the first Arnold Classic in 1989.  He was a very intelligent, well spoken guy.

Funny how all the steroids guys come to bad ends. More proof that steroids deteroriate the organs. In this case the steroids went after Larry's brains. Oh well, better him than me.

There is no relation between steroid use and Alzheimer's dementia. And I do not necessarily agree with your last statement.
