i understand that um it's i like the discipline behind bodybuilding really taught me a lot of like structure and discipline in my life like really just honing in, but it's not traditionally healthy. And now everybody's taking gear and it's like, it's a normal thing now. It's commercialized. Everybody should be taking stuff. It's like, well, for what? Like a metal that like Yeah for a price of children Yeah pretty much It one thing I do like right now is that people are being more transparent about what they taking because i always been transparent about i'm like look this is this is what i've done this is what i do now this is what i'm not doing now and there were very few people that were actually being honest myself john meadows very few people would actually say yeah i've taken trend i've taken deal angel this is what i've done and then say look this is what i found with experimentation in my 20s don't do this don't do this this is bad this is good but it's nice that at least it's getting to the point where people understand that especially in our industry almost everybody's on right and especially if they look really good so i think that i think that is a good thing that we are having conversations about it and trt is getting more uh accepted it's not not as much of a tabby thing anymore but there's still a lot of people who aren't being transparent and it's it's important that that we're honest because our clients if they look at someone with a really nice physique and they go i want to look like that they need to understand that that wasn't just a product of clean eating and training hard and getting your sleep that was also a product of testosterone and pre-mobility trend and like if you do want to look like that um this is what it's going to take if you're not willing to do that then you can look like this but a really scaled down version right so i think on being honest and transparent is the best way to start everything yeah i do i do like the fact that a lot of people are talking about it but then part of it is sort of making it normal like it's normalized a little bit you know on tic toc there's like these trend challenges and things now it's blowing my mind like people think that a trt cycles you know like oh yeah but i'm taking this and then it's like no no that's not what it is i think it's just like it's in those early stages where like everybody's really like oh we can i can actually talk about this now and it's getting it gets out of control but you're i just looking at trends it will calm down at some point um but you can't fix stupid people and do this stuff i mean look at the tide pod challenges and kids were eating tide pods and hurting themselves there's always got to be that small minority that is almost seemingly it up for everybody by doing stupid and risky things but at least the people who are doing it responsibly don't have to hide it as much anymore so that there's always going to be a negative aspect of things but i think it's way worse for people to be non-transparent and do that and lead people to believe that they've done that without any assistance if you look at even like old stuff like uh casey beider when they're doing the the nautilus stuff and they were like oh he's doing like about one set to failure and we put on 40 pounds of muscle in four weeks it's like we did it without steroids come on guys we know we know the truth but that stuck for decades and then it finally comes out that well you know he was kind of doing some other and training more would he sneak off and do more stuff it's like okay it's like at least we can start having a bit of honesty yeah yeah
