In the promotional video, I swear he is wearing eye makeup.

I think he deserves an acting award for this one. lol

What a joke. 

[Obvious Gimmick]

I bet the pros HATE social media and the 14,000 "fitness experts." The endorsement money has to be a fraction of what it was in the prime Cutler/ Coleman days.

That's depressing...just the entire issue surrounding Dallas and his early passing.  Age 26 is just so young.  Dallas was just a kid, and I have to think the constant pressure to keep increasing his size and weights lifted accelerated his early demise.

I think Rich Piana's heart weighed something like 660 grams, which was around twice the size of the heart of an average man.  But Dallas' heart was something like 830 grams - something around 200 grams bigger than Piana's heart despite being over 20 years younger.  It just makes me wonder what sort of chemical cocktail Dallas was on for that to happen.

Rich was in relatively good health... Some enlargement of the heart in someone that size is normal and not a concern, that's why I think rich overdosed on something, we never got the tox reports back.

As for Dallas, the state he was in was terrible, I was shocked reading his autopsy the enlargement of his organs were far beyond normal and healthy, even accounting for his size.... And the added fact he had cancer of the thyroid.

Only 26 years old,  real wake up call for others.

Just a kid? He’s a full grown adult who made stupid choices/decisions, that lead to his death. He was using extreme amounts more than “normal” pros use, that’s saying a lot. Completely ignored the signs when he had issues on stage and kept pushing it. Eventually his stupid heart gave out. Only people I feel even remotely sorry for is his parents and sister

Those numbers are pretty horrible. I remember the “where are the bodies” arguments that guys who started all of these boards were having back in the 90’s. I always said that I had a feeling we would see bad things in the future. I can’t be a hypocrite and deny that I chased the dragon for a couple of years, but fortunately for me I wasn’t ever going to be a pro or anything and I had some business opportunity that forced me to pretty much forget training (other than cardio and light lifting) for almost 13 years.
We had some pretty fiery debates back in the day and it ALWAYS came down to “If the shit is so bad for you - WHERE ARE THE BODIES BRO?”

I guess we finally started finding them.

Cedric is a soft/emotional guy, I don't doubt that he is being authentic here.

We are not friends but I would switch places with you... What a load of BS

I would deprive my children of a father, my wife of a husband just so you could carry on throwing in 20gms of test a week to try and crack the top ten of the Mr O

There were clear signs something was very wrong, the stage collapse and who knows what other symptoms he was hiding....

He was never gonna stop though, he wouldn't even take a break.

I remember thinking after the stage collapse, this guy needs to step back for a few months get off the juice etc clean out.... What did he do? He went straight on ten grams test plus who knows what dose of tren, gh, insulin and went up to a crazy 330 pounds and dropped dead, very sad....

Over 10 grams of test. Accoring to the autopsy report. But that was  testosterone derivatives alone. He was also on growth, insulin maybe other stuff.

When Cedric the Bentatainer assumes room temperature, there will be much weeping and gnashing of dentures...

Some girl still stuck in her Twilight Team Edward phase must have written that script he read.

Don't forget the nosebleed after the posedown with the little kid...

Both deaths could have been avoided. Lots of self-abuse, ignoral of common clinical  warning signs, advice from self serving 'friends', and lack of knowledgable and avoidance of medical advice promoted this. Ignorance in awareness of everyday first aid (e.g. CPR) -/ J.L. - might have helped too, particularly in Dallas' case.

Lots of people warned Dallas. He dismissed them as haters.

I remember specifically Shawn Ray made a video asking Dallas to slow down and stop the high doses as i understood.

Holy shit, I almost puked when I saw that crap. He wasn't even at Dallas' funeral, some people have no f*ing shame lol

Are you implying that JL did not know first aid? If so, what position are you in to assume that? Were you in the room when it happened?

[MoralMan]

20MG of test a week? Man, is that for real? I do about half that in an entire course.

[harmankardon1]

Yeah he was looking wrecked there, super huge and unhealthy,, literally in the process of juicing himself to death....

[harmankardon1]

He was on tren as well according to the autopsy...

you would think at least a gram of tren... Who knows

[JuicedKangaroo]

It's speculation, but I thought his autopsy levels implied around half of that...
