@Bitterman He claims that his organs are all fine. I mean it is possible that everything is OK if his organ health had been monitored all the while. When he was taking all the test. and HGH he received from the doctors he was being monitored then. In the Netflix documentary he says he takes 5-6 30mg oxycodone per day. That's definitely a lot, and I can't imagine how tough it must've been once he developed a tolerance to it and the pain management he received from the opiates started to plateau. But when you're on those meds they monitor your liver closely. So if he's still on them, his liver is probably holding up alright. Part of me though feels like some of the surgeries might have made him worse off. Not sure, but there's a weird vibe I get from the doctors in the documentary, like they know the surgeries are not helping that much...

My dad is in a similar situation as Ronnie, multiple spinal fusions, protruding disks, hernias, etc. and man, it’s tough for him. It’s tough for me to see as well. He was also a bodybuilder and before that, a powerlifter. He was so strong when I was a kid, but he gets weaker with time. Mentally though, he remains undaunted through it all. The surgeries just keep coming every few years, the leg numbness gets better for a time but it eventually starts deteriorating again. The surgeries just keep you mobile, they don’t really help the pain, if anything, they make it worse. You just have to choose between mobility and pain. His X-ray pictures look just like Ronnies. He doesn’t sleep well at all, that’s also part of what comes along with that chronic pain. I worry if he’ll ever hit his breaking point and mentally reach the limit but it doesn’t seem like he will. I hope I’m right.

Americans and Europeans are easily fooled into going for surgery for something as simple as herniated disc. All you need to do is - give it time to heal. And during that time - never lift weights but do a lot of stretches to aid the disc to heal naturally. Once you do a surgery on the spine - it is always like dominoes, you will keep doing one after other as the artifical fusion of spine keeps crippling the rest of the spine.

I feel for him, I got 12 completely deteriorated discs, and had 7 surgeries on right shoulder - last one was a stemmed hemiplasty and they honed out rotator cuff & drilled 12 holes experimentally in marrow to bleed into joint for lubrication but the internal bleeding causes some pain, plus I'm missing 100% of cartilage in every major joint except for left hip 20-25% and left elbow 20-30% still left - due to have Relapsing Polychondritis while at the same time going thru 2 serious bouts of Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever 7 years apart - the RMSF over ramped my Polychondritis and made my cartilage deteriorate 12 times faster than normal, it's been attacking my inner ears, trachea, floating ribs, and sternum the last 18 months... So after my last shoulder surgery I swore off anymore joint surgeries because it's a losing battle with me that I could never begin to afford & would never wanna saddle my wife & kids with whenever I'm gone. So honestly feel for him, cause when your working out you definitely aren't thinking your joints will be gone, not when you are a physical strength phenom like he was in the day. (On a side note, I only rarely discuss my condition on KZbin, never on Facebook or in public because nobody wants to hear anyone bitching anyways, as I'm sure many on here want to either - altho it would be nice on occasion for friends/family & trolls on Facebook to realize that I didn't actually get on disability in 3 weeks because of some kind of farce, because when you try to not show it everyone leaps to assuming that you are just faking for social security only, double edged sword, nobody ever feels sorry for ya but also nobody ever feels bad for ya either. 😉😢😏🤫)

I feel like Ronnie is a brother in arms.I'm 51 and been lifting and doing combat sports like wrestling, boxing, MMA, BJJ, Muay Thai etc. since I was 15-years old. Herniated disks, broken hands (3x times, once bad enough to have a slight deformity though not really noticable), torn and/or ruptured ligaments and tendons in both ankles, both knees, severe neck injuries (Dysreflexia) several widow-maker strokes, hundreds of TIAs over a 2-year period that stopped as suddenly as they started, Post-Concussion-Syndrome (CTE when you're alive), destroyed cauliflower riddled ears, scars over eyebrows, and on and on. I haven't stopped working out since I was 15-years old and I still work out every day, sometimes 2, even three times. While I look like an athlete, my body is a wreck and I feel it more and more everyday. Reinjuring and aggravating old injuries all the time. I love working out. Being hurt is just normal, though that attitude almost got me killed because in my first widomaker stroke I collapsed on the ground in my house and couldn't get up until the next day. I got up in spite of being confused and partially blind and went to work. The next stroke 2 weeks later put me in a coma for 3 days and I woke up and spent 3 weeks at Mass General re-learning to talk, type, walk, count, tell time, tell the difference between a spoon a fork, etc. After 2 weeks I could stand and I was doing Hindu Squats, wall push ups, lateral raises, curls, tricep curls, etc. with whatever I could pick up. I will be on my death bed and I'll be trying to workout.Once you are into that fitness lifestyle, it's a habit like any addiction I suppose and you can't break even if you try. I would say at least 2-3 days a weak, I do NOT want to work out at ALL. I will self-talk all the excuses, but I end up working out anyway, lol. I wish I could hug Ronnie. Listening to his story, sounds like mine, except for the hip replacement and fused spine which is BANANAS. Exercising is life. I'll take a break when I'm dead. Then I'll have all of eternity to rest.

Shout out to the spine specialists in Fort Worth too I saw the same specialist. His name was either Dr Avaramis or Dr garrigues. Ronnie’s definitely seen both. Great guys.

So many of us lift too heavy when young, then pay for it with increasing injuries a few years down the line.

Train like you can train for the rest of your life.
