no; but the way his parents talked, it sounded like it was a burden on them...and he had arnold victories and other show money, I think he should've bought his own food and not have his parents buy it. I mean Jay for instance cooks most of his meals. I think it portrayed him as childlike.
they weren't his parents. The lady was co-owner of the gym with Levrone, so she has a stake in how well he does.
As far as the mags lying about AAS. FLEX Magazine back in the early to mid 90's was VERY candid about usage. There interview with former IFBB pros, who talk about usage openly, as a matter of fact Mike Christian talked his first time having a needle shoved in his ass.
Dorian Yates had said something to the degree of: "If you take a 140 pound insecure man and build him up to 240 pounds, he is just a 240 insecure man"
You have so many factors around this topic, but one thing that sticks out, is that many of bodybuilders have little or no post high school education, top it off they all think that they are going to blow up like Arnold did, and many are emotional unstable. Put drugs in the mix, like any other population, and you see similar behavior. Only these drugs make one bigger.
Ever notice that Rich Jones, or similar guys (one could say Shawn Ray--I don't think he was whining, if they took heed to what he was saying, you wouldn't see the physiques of today) People who have stable backgrounds, who have their head on straihgt, don't exhibit any of these attributes?
