Farah is an absolute joke, he seems to think he's a doctor pretty much. Supposedly he's married to an MD and hospital director of some sort. If anyone knows if this is factual, let me know. Can't trust anything these guys say.
Anyway, if you watch Farah's videos here's what he says:
Lots of steroids are bad.
Insulin: bad, stay away
GH: bad
High IGF-1 bad (even as a result of dairy)
High protein: bad
Meat: bad, eat seeds and grains instead
Sugar: killer, causes cancer
Bodybuilding: unimportant, lots of other things are more important
But do his athletes follow this advice? Of course not, so what's the purpose with all this, who is it aimed at? Why does he still coach bodybuilders then?
Other industry insiders have said George is well known for his trenbolone brews.
This other pro coach, Bleu Taylor, told the story of how he was secretly prepping some guy who George Farah thought he was prepping. Farah gives the guy a Lasix at a show but Bleu says to throw it in the trash. Farah thinks the guy took the Lasix and says, "see, this is how good you look when your coach knows what he's doing".
Lol.
I seem to recall a story about George Farah claiming to coach the 2009 Middleweight or Light-Heavyweight Nationals champion, but that the story was completely fabricated. He was accused of a lot of shady stories like that in his initial rise to be a bodybuilding guru. Then next thing you know, he has a column in MD. Who reads MD? Well - anyone interested in building muscle would be a potential reader, so that ultimately led to The Rock reading his column, and I think Farah was the diet guru for The Rock for the movie Pain and Gain [2013]. There was a picture of Farah with The Rock, and he posted a vague message with it along the lines of "Guess who I'm currently advising on diet?"
But I don't think he answered the question...just posted the photo, which may have just been his way of getting people to believe he was working together without actually technically saying it - meaning that he wasn't exactly lying.
It's also possible that The Rock simply read MD, saw Farah's column, and sought him out. The "bodybuilding diet guru" racket seems to be an interesting one, with a pretty simple script to follow to get going...once a guru has a few high-profile clients, he can get money from dozens of other ones.
As for everything Farah said, that you mentioned above - how funny is it that these guys need to literally trash the entire real bodybuilding world in order to present an image of being agents of health.
For God's sake, the nicest way to describe diet gurus would be to call them chemists. In reality, they are probably poison control specialists. But to present themselves as being part of the health and wellness industry...is there no way to put these publicly-held views on bodybuilding to rest?
