Ronnie shouldve listened to lee priest templar training he learned . I feel lee threw it away with the tatoos
Yes he should have listened to Lee, the guy who ruined his bb career, booted from IFBB because he has a big ass mouth he cannot control, now he is a poor, bitter washed up 'has been', and a shill. lmao

He looked okay once he sat down. I’d say fuck it and just get a wheelchair.

Obviously that’s where he’s at but it’s a hard reality to accept.

Hard not to feel bad for the guy but he didn't have to be like this , his contemporaries are doing relatively well

It’s partly Ronnie’s fault, and partly the fault of his doctors. It’s his doctors’ fault for doing this to him, and Ronnie’s for letting them.

Be very cautious of any type of spinal surgery. The cure is usually worse than the disease.

Anyone care to ask Ronnie how he feels ?
Is he down & depressed or just getting on with life.

Makes you wonder if living a strenuous life is the way to go:

One made it to 100, the other is in his 90s. Neither has done a strenuous workout in their lives

With every operation he was worse. He kept going back to the same surgeon. Those operations destroyed him. I know he was in pain prior but is he in less pain now? He's a cripple.

I heard in a podcast couple of years ago, Ronnie saying that he was taken advantage by this surgeon, the doc was doing all these operations for the money basically, if I am not mistaken, just one of those operations ( where they opened him from the front ) cost sth like $300k.....

I imagine he was not forced and could have declined to have the surgery.

Any update videos he put up of his training were horrendous to watch. He was still training with shocking bad form which I'm sure wasn't helping alongside the surgeries. Can't blame it solely on the operations. Still sad to see though

Back operations in most cases have results no better than just having physical therapy.

Which kinda sucks.

Shoulder surgery is equally poor in outcomes.

There's gotta be something in that.  A couple of times I actually winced in real life watching him swinging iron around.  Like Ronnie gives a fuck what I say, but maybe he should have found someone like Soul Crusher or you other guys that know about bands and rollers and stuff..?  Would have helped his muscle memory maintain tonus, etc... oh well...

Sounds like Bhank’s doctor, but in their defense they are surgeons and not psychologists.
People come to them and want these surgeries..

Shoulder surgery is equally poor in outcomes.
I had procedures done in 4 herniated disks. No sides. I believe its called fiber optics. Worked wonders in my neck. In the lumbar not so much, but much better. No need for pain meds.
Going to order peptides for my shoulders. Worked great a couple of years ago.
