Dude seems to be making very good money, is enjoying himself, has said he uses intensity tenchniques so he doesn't have to go so heavy and damaging himself.
Sounds like things are going great, why stop? Sure there's some danger with the drugs but so what.

Good post

Honestly I get what you are saying Wes and he really does seem to be one of the good guys in this so called "sport" but why risk his health and sanity dieting down to unhealthy levels if he is just going to get overlooked all the time, sometimes unfairly I might add considering the current judging criteria

He makes a good living doing his other stuff and has proved himself why continue

You can ask the same question to zillions of people when you see them smoking, drinking, eating shitty foods, using rec drugs or even gambling or gaming.
Not everyone can make it to the top 3 all the time, but he simply loves to compete.

x2. Seems many don't consider the possibility that the reason people often do things is because they like it. Whether it's healthy or not is nobody's else business. I spent years getting my ass handed to me competing in Jiu-Jitsu and have lasting aches and pains as a result but it was the best time of my life.

Shit I`ve done a literal ton of contests, have won over 60 trophies, and only won 1 overall contest, and that was because I was the only entrant!   LOL   :D
