Savage during his final WCW run. I was fairly sure he was going to explode at any moment.

From tonight's SmackDown. More like AJ Swoles. AJ = Anabolic Juicer. Dude is looking jacked. I have no issue with these guys doing steroids. Hell, I've done various PEDs myself. It's an aesthetic industry, even today with generally smaller physiques and more emphasis on speed and agility. What's good, from a health standpoint is that generally these folk don't look as big and jacked as the 80s WWF roster. There's a lot more info, a lot more awareness, and doctor prescribed TRT is a big thing, so these guys generally are being safer. Like AJ is looking big here, but he's no 1988 Don Muraco, or Warlord.

While he has had a brief mention here, Ivan Putski will never get enough mentions for not only having one of the most insane physiques in wrestling ever, but also, one of the biggest transformations too.

Makes me wonder if WWE’s Wellness Policy allows for TRT though. I’m a bodybuilder myself (not saying I’m big, but it’s my style of training, diet, etc) and I generally don’t have a problem with them using anabolics either. Especially not low dose test like what they’d be getting from a doctor if it’s allowed.

I'd imagine there is at least leniency if a wrestler has a legitimate prescription for testosterone, but there is still the potential to abuse that by either taking dose above the prescribed amounts or stacking it with anavar, dbol, etc. Average TRT dose, is around 150ml a week if I remember properly, but that could easily be doubled or stacked with something else without causing issues or any red flags

It’s odd with AJ. He both seems to understand that he’s going to move on from the business sooner than later when he talks…but transforms his body into Vince’s 80s fever dream. It’s like the opposite of NFL linemen who drop hundreds of pounds when they hang it up. He’s winding down and getting REALLY into body mass. The guy spent most of his career in peak condition for his body type.

AJ's new physique doesn't come off like a guy who is retiring any time soon, more like a guy who wants to try and elongate his career
I just worry when guys bulk up like that, that their style gets inhibited, given AJ Styles has never been known to be that massive (And he also never needed to be for people to invest or believe anything he ever did)

As the OP of this nightmare thread I just want everyone to know that I burst out laughing like a f***ing idiot as soon as AJ Styles working out came on screen last night. Holy shit.

I personally know 3 or 4 people that have no business being on TRT but they get it prescribed because it’s a money maker for doctors. Keep in mind that we’re just some dudes in Washington, DC and not a professional athlete/entertainer.

Been watching 2000 WCW recently (I’m a masochist before you ask) and even amongst the likes of Scott Steiner, Chris Candido sticks out. There’s one Nitro where he’s told to run to the ring and take someone out and it looks ridiculous but also quite sad.

X amount of milliliters would refer to how much oil itself is in whatever it’s being contained in. Around here the typical dose is 200mgs/week. I feel like the laws surrounding it are pretty universal here in the states, as the biggest TRT providers generally work via telemedicine. Of course there may be states which are excluded. Them taking substantially more test, or adding in another compound such as the ones you mentioned, depending on the dose, would skyrocket the levels above what TRT doctors typically refer to as “high-normal”. I can’t quote the number but generally a physician would hope to get you around the same test levels of that of a late teens/early twenties man. I would surely hope that the policy allows for it. Legit TRT can do a lot to help a man’s psyche, attitude, mood.. all that. Of course physical benefits can happen too, but you can’t just take test and expect really any major changes in appearance if you don’t train or eat right. That applies to anabolics across the board. If they don’t let them go the legit route I’d have more problems with that than anything. At a certain point almost all men would benefit from TRT treatment regardless of wether they’re athletes or not.

I’d be curious to see how much more they are letting guys get.
