If you follow mma, basically all heavier fighters used, or use. Don't just follow people word for word. Steroid use gives you more confidence, if one was depressed, it brings one out of it.. when stopped, you generally feel lower unless you've had positive life changes. Thus the main reason for his losses afterwards. I think he also hid his steroid use from so many.. that he may not had been professional with it.. all to common. Testosterone is a he'll of a drug, and we produce it naturally. Food for thought.

Another person gladly confirming that Veganism is a load of complete bullshit and should be avoided. I feel so sorry for you that you experienced the severe health problems as well as degeneration of your physique. It seems like you were most likely brainwashed by st*pid vegans to adopt that nonsense plant based diet they claim is so "great". Considering the extremely high nutritional value of animal products, it wouldn't come as a surprise that someone will eventually lose physical condition when they follow a vegan diet for a long time. Plant based diets are unhealthy and not sustainable for a lifetime. One can certainly live or survive on a diet consisting of only plants for several years, but eventually, the nutritional deficiencies due to a lack of essential nutrients from animal products will take a huge toll on the body and can cause or exacerbate certain health problems. The militant vegans will blame you for your health problems which was obviously caused by the evil vegan diet and claim that you supposedly did it the "wrong" way.

@@ikemo3551 Yeah I was working in a grocery store with a bunch of hippies. So many of the foods are low in calories and if you try to binge it doesn't help because with all the fiber and no fat it just goes through faster. The fats help slow the digestion process down so the intestines have time to absorb the nutrients. The problem is less the nutritional deficiencies of the food itself and more a problem with the ability to absorb the nutrients from the awful fibre/fat ratio. Having a 1,000 mph intestinal tract makes it darn near impossible to get the nutrients out of the food, there's pretty much always a feeling of being calorie deficient so the body starts eating itself to get energy. Felt hungry all day every day.

Even the very elderly among their tribes are quite very active and energetic enough to engage in physically demanding activities such as hunting. U are delusional. Being exceptionally physically fit at 62 is not an indicator that your diet is the best route to take in regards to health. So many men are capable of reasonable admirable feats of athletism at that age regardless of their diet. Sure, you can be healthy on a mostly plant based diet, but that entirely depends on what and how you eat. The question is how long will such a diet sustain you and whether or not you are at optimal health or will be in good health throughout your lifetime. Maybe you have been following this diet for just a few years so the possible, potential adverse negative health effects of lack of animal proteins hasn't taken a toll on your body yet. Nice try spreading plant based propaganda, you liar. 😂 You most certainly made this comment to discourage him for quitting veganism.

Great video, brother...I agree 100% and think everyone blew this photo out of proportion. He's probably taking some time off for health reasons or to give his receptors a break. In any event I don't see him fighting too much longer. He's well into "middle age" at this point. Either way zmI wish him well. Always was a fan of his.

Also, let’s remember his physique now is his natural weight and size and actually looked this way when he fought chuck liddell. After that lose to chuck he came back years later and was the huge man we all came to normally seeing for decades. So he came full circle and went back to his natural size and weight.

It's a perfect decision. The moment he stops fighting is the moment he stops having excess muscle. I am very curious to see how old the Reem will become. Perhaps he is able to reverse many damage he has done to his body in his 25 year career

Two of my cousins are on PEDS. One of them actually competes in Muscle Body Competitions. She's Won first Place several times. My other cousin has been a gym rat for YEARS now. Him and one of his buddies started using Steroids a couple of years back.. And the results are Amazing. The sad thing is.. Once they stop using PEDS.... (Which they will absolutely have to eventually) Their body will transform into the complete opposite of itself.

Alistair just confirmed what everybody thought. Look whats goin on in "Athletics" around the world. Bodybuilding, MMA, wrestling, armwrestling, cycling, swimming, soccer the list keeps goin. The drugs changed everything. What i dont understand is that those guys are allowed to compete, cyclers these days have legs bigger then there head. Why pay soccer players millions to support there drug abuse...i cant watch that stuff anymore and am ashamed of whats goin on. If you want to take the "good stuff" by all means do so, but dont involve others.

7:20 I kind of haven't really followed mma or kickboxing for some years now but I didn't even know Alistair fought Badr Hari a 3rd time Badr Hari looked big Alistair looked big Alistair was out there fighting a guy who is taller (at least a couple inches taller) and he gets Badr to touch the canvas, and then makes him drop onto all fours, and basically faceplants while doing it, and drops him to all fours again That was a pretty impressive outing for Alistair considering he's 42, didn't fight kickboxing for a decade and is fighting a guy that stayed in kickboxing the whole time Alistair is the older guy, fighting a taller opponent, and had a very decisive win I know you've covered Kali Muscle Surprizingly Alistair and Kali Muscle seem to be kind of saying the same things. Kali calls himself a fruitarian. Alistair in the other video you posted, was saying I'm a vegan, and fruits are good, fructose turns akaline. Kali might've started with proportionally more muscle than Overeem but Kali seems to have retained more muscle through all he's been doing and still looks quite strong compared to the average person. either way, I hope Alistair is doing well in life.

Yes, you'll get big but, it's not good for CRP, (C-reactive proteins) or long-term health. Autophagy is sent to sleep, which helps to promote cell cleaning and re-production. Constant eating throughout the day just doesn't give the body a chance to recover!Just as a car needs to rest and be MOT'd, so does your Body but on a more regular process. You cannot stimulate growth on an un-natural/Healthy level, without full natural recovery..... Period. Too many people confuse muscle bulk with general health, they are not synergistic with each other.
