That is amazing considering he was dying and on dialysis 25 years ago

Don “Defying Human Anatomy” Long

Disgusting as it sounds, I think that is actually one of those crazy arm varicose vein clumps from years of dialysis

A co-worker has those lumps in his arm veins. They are from the dialysis catheter.

Totally worth it.

Dialysis is just a minor speed bump on the path to bodybuilding fame.

Didn't he discover he was born with only one kidney, already later in his career?
If only he had stayed doing stripping.

Glad he is doing well with dialysis. The average life expectancy for people that start it is 5 to 10 years. Can you imagine going to get dialysis 3 times a week to sit there for hours?  They often are very weak when leaving treatment.

it's called a AV Fistula. they stitch together a vein and an artery. artery is higher pressure so it stretches the vein & makes it bigger/thicker enough to withstand 2 big 15/16ga needles 3-7days a week. you've gotta get the Fistula done like 6months prior to starting dialysis so it has time to heal and get all thick, looking like a varicose vein.

Serious question,,, which bodybuilding drugs are most linked to all the kidney damage cases?

The ones that cause high blood pressure.

Makes sense. Well kind of hard to avoid for a pro bodybuilders with the the dosages they have to use to be competetive.
