Looks like he lost 1 million subs on his Youtube channel.

I think a lot of powerlifters have had the mentality that if you don't train because something hurts you'll never train. My former training partner, the hardest trsiner I ever saw, had eaten the NSAID diklpfenak for 15 years straight. Also daily codeine/apap tablets were essential; he had so much I probably ate a couple of thousands of them myself. His lab values for kidneys and liver were perfect though. His one shoulder had hurt for many years but suddenly the pain stopped, when the cartilage was all worn down. He hoped the same would happen with his other hurting shoulder. Unfortunately he was finally cut down when his foot broke and collapsed during a set of squats, out of all things the foot breaks! After surgeries one leg is 2 inches shorter and the ankle doesn't move at all. So he stopped training alltogether. Didn't stop the painkillers though, said his doc wrote an Rx for 3600 codeine pills and wrote in his journal, "I have a hard time saying no to him." There was talk of moving him to the less toxic Oxy tabs but I don't know what happened with that. Oxys are killers when overdosed and obviously like using heroin but they don't contain the toxic paracetamol.

The fucker had training drive like you wouldn't believe, shame he stopped, we had epic workouts.

The only Dumb one is You - with your semantics - avoidance -
changing of goal posts - & acting dumb & forgetful.

You've been caught out & exposed countless number of times.

Ah, the old 'countless times' playbook. Just how many did you count and how many of them were you calling me out? Go ahead, list them. 

Why is the christian looney US Ambassador to Israel meeting with convicted criminal Israeli spy Pollard?


American who spied for Israel says he met Ambassador Mike Huckabee to 'thank' him for his support



Convicted Israeli spy Jonathan J. Pollard downplayed the controversy around his private meeting with U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, telling NBC News the visit was “personal” and “wasn’t done surreptitiously.”

The “main point” of the meeting at the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem in July, Pollard said, was to “thank” the ambassador for “his efforts on my behalf during my incarceration.”

Pollard, a former American intelligence analyst, spent 30 years in prison on espionage charges after being found to have passed critical security documents to Israeli intelligence in the 1980s. Israel made Pollard a citizen during his lengthy prison term, and he moved there in 2020, five years after his release on probation.

During Pollard’s detention, Huckabee was among several pro-Israeli politicians who advocated for his release, arguing that the sentence was too severe for someone who had been spying for an ally.

you think Ronnie squatting and deadlifting 800lbs had nothing to do with the way he has ended up?

Baby out with the bath water statement.

Totally disregarding the drugs and probably was like most lifters and didn't do adjunct things necessary to keep things healthy.  In addition I would also go so far as to say that he had the mentality (like most) that when something was wrong, it "didn't hurt that bad" to address it.
