What exactly was his project? Why was it considered harmful?

Good question, Randomum. This just happened, and I'm trying to look for any official statement so far, that goes into more depth about it.

If I had to guess - YouTube is targeting content on steroids. I wonder if Derek from More Plates More Dates will be next.

Hopefully some other YouTubers will weigh in on it. Maybe Dave Palumbo will do a video on it as well. As Dave / RxMuscle could easily be targeted as well.

His Super Training channel also has many vids talking steroids.

His channel sucks. He got rich selling his shitty products and making podcasts that no one watches anymore. There’s a shelf life for most all fitness influencers and his time has been up for awhile. YouTube is just putting him out of his misery.

I saw a few eposides of his podcast and he was going into homo territory, kind of like how Mike Israetel is constantly making homo references.

if they're going hard on steroid talk then most bb podcasts will be closed since they're all talking very openly about it these days. Pretty much to the point of being a selling point of who is the most kandid and informative about it.

They used to be crazy harsh on videos where even if you said ‘steroids’ your video would be removed.

That was where the anabolic chicken term came from as his vids were getting pulled.

Rich Piana made it through the filter for whatever reason and it seemed like that opened the flood gates for everyone else.

But at least we have Noe Rohan podcast to tell us Ronnie is possible natural.

No great loss. His power cast was good but the power project was rarely worth watching- aside from the Tommy Wishbone appearances.

Mark Bell was almost still bearable, but his co-hosts Nsima (always seemed like a pretentious twat) and Andrew Z brought little to the table.

No, but he and his pals interviewed a homosexual strongman competitor. I also saw a short of theirs in which some guest was speaking about the health benefits of a man being anally rammed by another man, which is lying.

I estimate Mike Israetel talks about homosexuality in about 90 percent of his videos, and it’s not funny.

To be honest, most of the bodybuilding industry is that way.

I was watching an RxMuscle video recently, and it started with an ad featuring massive, jacked bodybuilders, in contest shape. I was thinking: "This is just like the old MuscleTech ads - but in video form." A few seconds later, I realized it actually was a MuscleTech ad. So they're still doing it. Like Vince Goodrum said before, their ads border on fraud.

I'm just thinking about this in terms of YouTube policy - every now and then, I think about going back to YouTube myself. But I'm not clear on what is or is not allowed. I feel this incident just adds another layer of confusion.

Lol, I know what you mean about that.

For me, it's that this is the type of thing that has immobilized me lately. I'm always looking for 100% guarantees in everything, and I can't stand when vague policies can just snuff any of us out at any time.

And IMO, that sort of is the point - they want us all living under a system where we either aren't aware of what the line to cross is, or there is no line at all. And then we're all worried about crossing that line, which may not even exist anyway.

Yeah, I'm sure I'm thinking too much into this.  ;D But I have been dragging my feet on starting a True Crime YouTube channel...and stuff like this incident is why.

Here's a video about it:



I did an interview with Mark Bell. His Slingshot gear is awesome. 👌

A bit of a plug here - but Mark makes some amazing gear. YouTube locked me out of my channel when I changed the password, and successfully entered it.  ::) LOL.

I hate the myth that Bell invented the Slingshot. He only invented it because he patented it. The history of those things is more like this - Bench shirts were expensive $150-300, hard to get into, and prone to ripping. So guys would take old ones and cut them down to get more use out of them. Guys like Chris Taylor cleaned up the design with his "Bench Strap", but he never gave them much though, it was just something he'd do for friends -

Mark Bell helps invent goofy shit like this -

Aren't most of these fitness youtubers mostly homosexuals, or closeted homosexuals? Why is talking about homosexuality a concern, is that even banable?

If they delete your channel, are you able to obtain your videos (intellectual property)? Or is it just gone if you don't have a copy?

This is one of those "it depends" type things. There's a gray area where your videos are held while they figure out if the want to keep you banned. Sometimes bigger banned channels have been able to get them to give back videos, but usually not.

I'm not sure if it still works, but you used to be able to download the videos from the google data portion of your total google account even if they deleted you -

https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/3024190?sjid=10528928936387170276-NA .

There was a Youtube button hidden in the data options that would send you a zip file of some of your uploaded videos. It was a decent sized file, but for a huge channel, I'm not sure it would have all of it.

Those things made a mint over here in the States. Lots of kids buying them, high school and colleges strength coaches, etc..... It was crazy for a few years. Not the biggest fan of the guy, but he is industrious. He was constantly pumping money into the business and other ventures all the time for a number of years.

Crossfit was big? He tried to get a piece of that. Some internet meme was big? he'd try to get a piece of that. His brother is making a new movie?, etc.... 

A fun thing is to see how many trademarks he has -

Yes. But it's such a gimmick and silly thing. And a guy builds an "empire" from it.  Exaggerating but still.

I would never have thought this would sell in such numbers. But OTOH people love benching and with the Slingshot you can quote silly numbers. I know they have competitions with it, I'm sure you or others mentioned it earlier.

I literally see half a dozen people at my gym use the slingshot every chest workout. It’s 20 year old to 70 year olds. The 70 year old guy does some type of modified floor press on the smith machine with a slingshot that is way to big.
