Ronnie really sacrificed everything for bodybuilding, he was very well aware of all the consequences, but he still lifted incredibly brutal weights. And that's why he will always be a LEGEND of bodybuilding.
He quite literally wasn't aware of the risks. He accepted the consequences with as much grace as human possibly could but he wasn't aware while lifting that his body was already broken and pushing it any further without medical treatment will cripple it for life. He thought that it was just pain, no biggie, nothing unusual and to his misfortune he just happened to have the most insane pain tolerance on this planet. It was his greatest gift and biggest downfall. Had he listened to his body he could have still been a legend and had fully functioning spine.
@@debbiekonkin5768 of course it was steroids, every bodybuilder who makes a living off of it are using steroids, you can’t be huge without them use your head

He know things could go wrong and the beauty with big Ron is he regrets nothing and still has a smile! Some could argue, that better operations and a sooner plan for he's back would have changed it.

No it makes him an idiot. His doctors keep warning him that if he keeps doing this stupid shit his back will become irreparably. He’s literally broken the spinal support in his back once. He’s a fool with an addiction, he needs help and you fools keep egging him on.

@zsan157 He didn't know that he'd end up a cripple. I know about the 800lb squat narrative. No one who is telling the truth would say that giving away your retirement years and mobility was worth drug abuse and poundage abuse. I have over 150 awards in bodybuilding, running and wrestling.

For those who are wondering what happened he had a crazy pain tolerance so during one work out he broke a part of his back with out knowing what it was even though it caused him pain ,ignoring this pain he continued on his journey for 10 years before he had to get 13 surgery and he was almost fully paralysed due to the amount of bolts in his back
I met him in Arlington, Tx once..he is one of the nicest people Ive ever met, his personality and smile alone will motivate you to try harder, this Man would sooner die than quit. There is a reason so many people respect this Man, he's earned it.
If you don’t know already, Ronnie Coleman underwent two hip replacement surgeries and multiple other treatments to alleviate the pain from his damaged intervertebral disks. The surgeries, though, aggravated the injuries and health issues he has suffered and caused the bodybuilding icon to lose most of his mobility ima be honest i copies this from google but thanx for the likes
Btw if your hips and knees and whatever joints are fucked up, you better get them replace asap, as the healing process is a lot worse as you get older. *me a forest worker.... gonna have to get these things done soon*
Or the self making testosterone’s in his body aren’t working since he got them from another source so now those testosterone makers are gone and he is losing his body
It was definitely worth it for him, in many peoples opinion hes the best ever in the sport of bodybuilding competition, he lived his dream and he was willing to sacrifice what ever came with it.
I can't say for him if it's worth it but to see the human physique pushed to it's max was absolutely stunning. I don't care what anyone says, he was truly in a class of his own
@@KwanStay_Moving You mean what every bodybuilder at his level is doing? Like everyone. Whether he's on roids or not is irrelevant.

He was dumb tho. He got really really injured and didnt stop to recover which broke his behond any repair. He realised what he had done and tried to fix it with 19 surgeries but he still can't walk. If he had done a surgery when he first got injured he would be in perfect human condition today and he would not go through unimaginable pain.
@@awakenotwoke1973 the way bodybuilders train is terrible for your back. they want thin waists when you need a huge core to support your back. i look fatter than i am because i had to build a strong core to support my back. i work physical labor and its helped a lot.

@@CrazyNerdInventor Yeah because very few humans want to be a walking chemistry lab. I have more respect for the bronze and silver age bodybuilders who gained their physiques before the synthesizing of testosterone or at least during a period where it was harder to acquire.

Thanks I'd never heard that part and always wondered why other olympians and powerlifters didn't seem to have the severe consequences he had. Was the crunch an entire vertebrate collapsing? The sad thing is they can now put something akin to bone concrete in the vertebrae and fix that pretty easily today.
He was well aware of the consequences. He’s not bitching about his condition. I respect that 100% cause if it was me or almost anyone else in the world we’d all be bitter and sour about life
Today is the best you can get because the past is filled with the lessons to survive for tomorrow. Fingers crossed, I see you tomorrow. Detox the mind with distilled water, and the body will follow.
He provided a great life for his family doing what he loved to do as a career, he says it was worth it and I believe him. I don't judge this man living out his dream even if there were dire consequences he was and is the best of the best to ever do it imo.

Apparently the thing he had was something that if it didn’t get fixed more of it would keep happening so 10 years of training after it happened almost paralyzed him.
Thanks I'd never heard that part and always wondered why other olympians and powerlifters didn't seem to have the severe consequences he had. Was the crunch an entire vertebrate collapsing? The sad thing is they can now put something akin to bone concrete in the vertebrae and fix that pretty easily today.
He is a pure soul! God bless this guy❤️
He was well aware of the consequences. He’s not bitching about his condition. I respect that 100% cause if it was me or almost anyone else in the world we’d all be bitter and sour about life
Today is the best you can get because the past is filled with the lessons to survive for tomorrow. Fingers crossed, I see you tomorrow. Detox the mind with distilled water, and the body will follow.
He is the greatest off all-time when you combine his accolades with the pure dedication
Absolutely woth it. King Ronny was living a live
My man looks happy and fulfilled, so yes.
He still alive🙏🏾 blessing
He provided a great life for his family doing what he loved to do as a career, he says it was worth it and I believe him. I don't judge this man living out his dream even if there were dire consequences he was and is the best of the best to ever do it imo.
Ronie grande homem, fonte de motivação! Brasil 🇧🇷
