I spent some time on this one. Please Hit LIKE!! 🙏and Hope you guys like it. People have been speculating Cancer or other health issues as the cause for this drastic weight loss. I did not want to speculate but said what I felt on this which is why it's titled this way.
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.
I saw Alistair Overeem at a hardcore gym I used to train at in Holland around 15 years ago, he was the tallest and biggest guy there, made all the bodybuilders look like short stocky kids haha! :D
You are so right. When you start taking gear you in a way sell your soul. As good as you look and feel on cycles you look and feel that bad off. And your point about age is so to the point. As you age and come off you don’t just go back to how you were. You are below zero as they say. I have as you have accepted that I’m a life long user. But beware. If you aren’t ready to accept this fact don’t start
I was 100% natural for 17 years 15-33 yo .I got up to 248-250 lbs .I was stuck there for 4 years .I bench pressed 500 lbs raw after 14 years of training.I have large bones 8 1/2” wrists John is right .Because once you start 90 % of the time .Your body never bounces back . Plus when you try to become clean .You look worse .Because your hormones are never the same ,Never !! Now protocol help .But most of the time .Your body is never the same .
@@NarutoEternal566 It was August of 1995.I was 28 yo .I weighed 248 lbs I trained for 13 years Back then we didn’t have camera phones We only had only big VHS and Beta Recorders Larry Carpenter the owner was a black belt in 3 different martial arts .He was also a bodybuilder It was a hard core gym .If I brought a camera in the gym .He would have thrown it On gear I did 500X7 raw I did 570 with ease I missed 600 lbs by 2” .After doing 500X6-7,540,570,then 600 lbs I was 285-290 lbs at the time You can believe me or not ? We didn’t have cameras on phones . Back in 1995 then again 2002 Plus back then .Golds and Goodbodies really frowned on video taping at the gym back then Times have changed Now you can bring a tripod Back then you had to be in the Mr Olympia Or get permission from the manager You had to do it late at night Not to distract other members Back then it was about training Not about likes on social media
To me, the most amazing thing about Overeem, is despite his long career and number of punches taken, times knocked out, he seems to show no effects in terms of CTE which is nothing less than amazing, all things considered.
I’m sure he has slight brain damage from the concussions, but some people can just withstand more damage without showing symptoms. Hopefully he doesn’t decline as he gets older. I can only imagine the shots he was taking in the kickboxing gyms in Holland. Those guys spar extremely hard in the K-1/kickboxing world
CTE doesnt start showing symptoms until youre 50-60 unless you REAAAAALLLLY over did it on your brain. Even james toney talked good through his 40s and he had 90+ boxing matches at world champ level.
Nothing depressing about the weight loss. He probably feels better now. Im 5'8 and at my biggest i was 260. After awhile i couldn't get comfortable sitting or laying down. Granted i was 140lbs when i started lifting 23 years ago. Now at 43, I'm around 210. I feel so much better. There's more to life than just being big
I have nothing but respect for Reem, met him at the Roseland in NYC for Strikeforce Grand Prix and he was such a nice guy he took a photo with me and pretended to punch in the face in the pic his fist was as wide as my forehead!!! I am 5 foor 8 170 he was an absolute monster. Then after he got popped and his chin totally went on him, he still managed to beat a ton of heavyweight killers which to me showed just how skilled he really was. He basically had to fight perfect fights as if he got caught he was going to sleep. Was so close to beating Steepe for the belt if only he he did not go for that guillotine
I saw Alistair fight in Vegas, met his brother while I was there....really cool guy. It will be interesting to see where Alistair goes from here. Been following his career for years much like you have. Great video and insight!
Allistar Overeem is a legend and one of the best of all time. Man there was nothing like Ubereem and the TRT days though. Thought it was kinda cool that the UFC allowed that for a while
It’s called getting older stopping using lots of gear and training like an animal as we get older. You can’t go into your 50’s doing that shit and live a long life. Let the guy live man
Alistair was caught using steroids most of his career. I know people want to shame those that get caught but the fact is a majority, if not all, of fighters were using it. It got to the point that those that were natural had to start using if they hoped to compete against those using. I agree with Jon Bravo because Allistair basically looks the same now after losing all the bulk as he did when he started his career. Great video once again.
Most of them use roids .I trained kickboxing for 9 years.All of the guys used.If you wanted to go to next level,or to turn professional U had to use.I see difference after they started to use roids .From normal 18,19 years old kids they become monsters in 6 months.
Horse Meat Overeeem and TRT Vitor, 2 of the GOAT fighters. These guys are an example how the sauce works like super soldier serum on some people with the right combo of genetics, skill and work ethic.
Lesnar never tested positive for steroids he tested positive for an estrogen blocker. You dont have to be on a cycle to be on estrogen blockers and being off a cycle is not the same as being on so its not even right to say past experiences count
Thanks so very much for the transparency and honesty this is why I dig you so much I’m turning 53 and look and feel amazing and I’m just now considering getting hrt and when I was younger I warned the knuckleheads taking stuff in high school😂unbelievable when you definitely don’t need and now some are dead or dying or very sick and look like trash it’s a shame to destroy your future health to look good at the beach or for some trophies or medals at least the Reem has world championships and money god bless him and you too brother❤️🙏🏽✊🏽👍🏽💯

It doesn't change what he's accomplished, steroids or not. To compete at his level for so long, taking steroids is a survival decision, especially when everyone else is. God bless you Reem!
Exactly I agree with you it was a survival decision he only took steroids to protect himself from the other guys from those cheaters otherwise he would never have taken it.
Yeah....I mean...it is still "technically" cheating, but you don't become the best in the world without drive, consistency, hard work, and talent. Almost everyone he fought was on gear so it's still a necessary evil at high competition levels.
I just got my T tested, I’m 32 and it came back at 95. I have no clue how it’s so low but it makes sense. We can’t get pregnant, and I have no energy when I wake up, I hurt all over like I’ve been in a terrible car accident. It gets better throughout the day like arthritis or something, my hands are weakly gripped, and I fall asleep while driving. I need a complete health overhaul, wish me luck.
Start with a complete physical examination by ur primary care provider and start tackling the deficiency one at a time. It can be cumbersome and overwhelming but it’s possible. Run/ swim if u can daily, workout religiously Vitamin IV infusion monthly if u can. Stay away from drugs, cigarettes and alcohol if possible. Be intentional with your diet.I’m not a medical doctor just my personal opinion. If you’re religious, get closer to God and ask him for strength in the journey of being whole. Don’t give up, just try ur best one day at a time 💪🏾👍🏾.
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.
I always love the Reem since early days of MMA. I remembered his was a big guy before. I hope Alistair health is in good condition. He's still a legend. Excellent video I like the editing and the information. Awesome job!
@@JonnyBravoTV Thanks for replying. 95% of people who see the title probably aren't aware of any speculation out there and just think Overeem might have cancer. It's helping to spread unfounded rumors about someone having cancer. I like your videos but it rubs me the wrong way, for what it's worth.
I wish great content would be the reason you would get views on RUclips. Yes the title is clickbaity but it does have a question mark because this is what has been discussed by so many seeing his photos and did state it was not a disease IMO. Unfortunately the only way for any type of success is titles like this which is way so many creators are forced down this route. Things have changed online and they are forcing our hand with short content and making chances of long form content getting any traction near impossible. It's such a mess that it may force someone like me to move on completely. At least with my content you know the quality you're getting when you click it. Thanks for watching my man.
Question to people who lift - is it possible to get the stretch marks associated with quick muscle growth without using steroids because he had then age 17
Overeem is naturally a skinny guy. Once he decided to inflate his physique with heavy PED use, his new muscles became his whole identity. That's why he ended up getting caught and blowing his chance at the UFC belt, he knew he couldn't keep being Ubereem without big doses of gear. So I'm glad to see him getting back down to his natural weight.
Really, something that happened to Kali, ronnie and probably so so many more that get off the gear right away. It's called reality son no different then a crack addict off there drugs and barely unrecognizable after that. Not rocket science!!!
I’ve been watching Alistair since the pride days. His best years was fighting in Japan, and even when he crossed over to kickboxing. He’s always been one of my favorite fighters to watch but on a personal level, He doesn’t seem like a good dude. He’s known for knocking people out in the gym. Much smaller than him. He’s considered a gym bully by many UFC vets. That being said, I hope he’s able to make a full recovery!
I’m 52 and just started a cycle of Deca Durabolin. Small dosages for severe joint pain. I’m taking this particular steroid, not for size but for rejuvenation of my joints that through the work I do, requiring heavy lifting and arduous manual labour, hope to promote healing. If anyone in the know can enlighten me on this steroid and if it will eventually work. I would appreciate the feedback
Look up Nelson Vergel on here , he took deca for over a decade to combat HIV and was at his healthiest ever , deca is a wonder drug , as long as you keep the dose low
I believe this to be accurate. I didn’t start testosterone until I was 38 but my levels were around 375 (pretty low) and my sex life was not what it should’ve been. 2yrs later I look the best I ever have and put on about 10lbs of muscle. My sex life js the best it ever has been and my wife is extremely happy lol. However, I too am aware of the fact this was a lifetime decision for me and I’m ok with that.
So true... I was afraid of taking steroids for fear of becoming addicted to them. People could not understand how I kept my size all year round. I never used steroids. I was addicted to creatine when it became a thing, taking triple the amount suggested. This created problems so I transitioned to the original suggested amount. I would see so many guys in the gym shrivel in size. You knew they were off of the juice!
Brock Lesnar was allowed to take peds and ufc didn't do f' all, he was caught out when he fought Mark Hunt. So overeem shouldn't be the one who is put outhere as a cheat but it's just that he also has great genetics so his body grows better then others on peds, same as trt vitor. Look at vitor when he was 19 😅 he looked like an apex predator
look at his early fights, he's naturally skinny. Since he's not fighting anymore no real reason to walk around with all that muscle. The man is nice and respectful to everyone and one of the greatest fighters to walk the planet. Thank this man for some great fights!
Even as natural bodybuilder I realize if u natural if u stop training a little u shape change but ur weight remains the same... but if the dude taking steroids stop he loses like alot of kilos bro... I have seen it bro.. that is why I was scared to take it because.. u suffer from body dismophoia
9:38 don't take that shit you don't need that. You will look old. Im 38 years no drugs no alcohol only traning and staying happy. Im ripped at 90kg. People think I'm under 30 years of age. Gym traning and cardio for 32 years. Started traning young with my father.
I tried going vegan for a while and lost mass about as quickly as Overeem. 190lbs to 140lbs in a few months. Without animal fats the food just runs right through you and it's darn near impossible to keep weight on. Also felt incredibly weak and sick. Stopped doing that, normal diet 3,000-3,500 calories/day back to 200 lbs. i also looked frail and gaunt like he does now, unless you're supplementing testosterone and fats somehow you're just going to have zero energy. I've never met a healthy natty vegan.
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.
On the other hand, I'm 62, eat mostly plant-based (not entirely vegan) and have lost the "dad bod". I can do 12 proper pullups (all the way down to my head over the bar), 80 pushups, and I can trounce my teenage kids in 100 metres. The longest-lived populations on the planet eat little to no animal protein. So with respect, I disagree that a well composed, plant-based diet sets you up for weakness and frailty.
@@mastersathlete7380 You Ignorant liar, The longest living human populations on earth generally have a diet that is mostly comprised of animal based products, not plants. Majority of nomadic tribes around the world have a very high life expectancy and are much more healthier than most other people in the developed parts of the world. These primitive nomadic tribes such as the Masai Mara warriors, Hadzabe tribe of tanzania, lemba tribe e.t.c have a diet consisting of mostly meat produced either by their livestock or by wild animals through hunting events, and these people have been thriving for thousands of years and currently do today without experiencing health issues unlike people in the west. 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.
@@mastersathlete7380 The population with greatest health and longevity on the planet are Okinawan Japanese that eat fish regularly. Any other unsupported nonsense you want to spout?

To me, the most amazing thing about Overeem, is despite his long career and number of punches taken, times knocked out, he seems to show no effects in terms of CTE which is nothing less than amazing, all things considered.
alone the uppercut from Ngannou should be enough to have CTE.
@@SB379 hahaha. Very true. Lesser men may have been decapitated from that punch.
Genetics plays a big part in that. Some people acceptable to CTE than others.

We can’t get pregnant, and I have no energy when I wake up, I hurt all over like I’ve been in a terrible car accident. It gets better throughout the day like arthritis or something, my hands are weakly gripped, and I fall asleep while driving. I need a complete health overhaul, wish me luck.
We ?? Can't get pregnant no wonder your testosterone is low
Start with a complete physical examination by ur primary care provider and start tackling the deficiency one at a time. It can be cumbersome and overwhelming but it’s possible. Run/ swim if u can daily, workout religiously Vitamin IV infusion monthly if u can. Stay away from drugs, cigarettes and alcohol if possible. Be intentional with your diet.I’m not a medical doctor just my personal opinion. If you’re religious, get closer to God and ask him for strength in the journey of being whole. Don’t give up, just try ur best one day at a time 💪🏾👍🏾.
That sounds more serious than low test, maybe go to your doctor
Very excellent doc!!
Very honest,100%agree with you
Damn, your honesty is honest
He’s not 205 at all. He fought at 205, cut from probably 225. 6’4 and that body frame is at least 220
He said back then he was 84kg which is 185lbs
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.
I always love the Reem since early days of MMA. I remembered his was a big guy before. I hope Alistair health is in good condition. He's still a legend. Excellent video I like the editing and the information. Awesome job!
Thx you my man. Reem reminds me of the glory days of MMA. Miss it.
@@JonnyBravoTV Anytime my man! Yes, Alistair have alot of classic fights in Japan and k-1.
He use to fight at 205 in mma he's just not a big guy like that so it doesn't surprise me he's slim down
Are you on trt then Jon? What's ur opinion about it if you are? I'm 47 n seriously considering it...
The name of the song at the end? God bless
Alistair was thin when he began fighting people in my opinion he was pretty good then at his lighter weight. No news here
Excellent Narration. ...
How much is trt and can I get it in uk, I'm 47 year old male and just feel flat all the time.
Title is blatant and pretty disrespectful clickbait. Putting a question mark does not make it less sleazy.
Everyone else is saying it in thousands of comments... read my pinned post. ? Means I'm answering that question.
@@JonnyBravoTV Thanks for replying. 95% of people who see the title probably aren't aware of any speculation out there and just think Overeem might have cancer. It's helping to spread unfounded rumors about someone having cancer. I like your videos but it rubs me the wrong way, for what it's worth.
Love ur content jon. No need for the clickbate cancer title. Ur shit stands on its own.
I wish great content would be the reason you would get views on RUclips. Yes the title is clickbaity but it does have a question mark because this is what has been discussed by so many seeing his photos and did state it was not a disease IMO. Unfortunately the only way for any type of success is titles like this which is way so many creators are forced down this route. Things have changed online and they are forcing our hand with short content and making chances of long form content getting any traction near impossible. It's such a mess that it may force someone like me to move on completely. At least with my content you know the quality you're getting when you click it. Thanks for watching my man.
Could it be hiv ?
I thought that too. Don't wish that on anyone
@@JonnyBravoTVlets hope not...like you Said nobody deserves that, its horríble.
What's your monthly TRT bill ?
How did brock test clean for the overeem fight?
He didnt want to take steroids forever ,its dangerous .
He was a good fighter good luck to him
Question to people who lift - is it possible to get the stretch marks associated with quick muscle growth without using steroids because he had then age 17
Overeem is naturally a skinny guy. Once he decided to inflate his physique with heavy PED use, his new muscles became his whole identity. That's why he ended up getting caught and blowing his chance at the UFC belt, he knew he couldn't keep being Ubereem without big doses of gear.
So I'm glad to see him getting back down to his natural weight.
Really, something that happened to Kali, ronnie and probably so so many more that get off the gear right away. It's called reality son no different then a crack addict off there drugs and barely unrecognizable after that.
Not rocket science!!!
In my mind that v neck continues off screen for infinity before coming to a point. Your the man
😂😂😂😂❤️
Anyone knows how old is Jon ? curious cause he mentions his age and looking youthful
I’ve been watching Alistair since the pride days. His best years was fighting in Japan, and even when he crossed over to kickboxing. He’s always been one of my favorite fighters to watch but on a personal level, He doesn’t seem like a good dude. He’s known for knocking people out in the gym. Much smaller than him. He’s considered a gym bully by many UFC vets. That being said, I hope he’s able to make a full recovery!
Theres more to life than being big. Im glad he's off the sauce. He gave it a good 10+ years. Time for the next chapter maybe
Hope your theory is right I grew up watching him and have been a fan for a while.
Hoping so. Crazy part is 60 pounds lost since March.
I’m 52 and just started a cycle of Deca Durabolin. Small dosages for severe joint pain. I’m taking this particular steroid, not for size but for rejuvenation of my joints that through the work I do, requiring heavy lifting and arduous manual labour, hope to promote healing.
If anyone in the know can enlighten me on this steroid and if it will eventually work. I would appreciate the feedback
Look up Nelson Vergel on here , he took deca for over a decade to combat HIV and was at his healthiest ever , deca is a wonder drug , as long as you keep the dose low
I believe this to be accurate. I didn’t start testosterone until I was 38 but my levels were around 375 (pretty low) and my sex life was not what it should’ve been. 2yrs later I look the best I ever have and put on about 10lbs of muscle. My sex life js the best it ever has been and my wife is extremely happy lol. However, I too am aware of the fact this was a lifetime decision for me and I’m ok with that.
Wow. That's crazy good. I can't believe this happen. Great stuff from you
When the economy collapses from a emp and you cant get no Test you gonna be worthless 😂
can u explain what you mean with lifetime decision? what happens when u stop vs continue, looks and health wise
@@StealthTRDlmao reason why I got off
@AbletonLiveTechs how long was you on? Were you able to get your levels back to a decent range? I messed myself all up..i feel like im stuck on it
He's just another abuser and a Lier ! Don't feel a bit sorry for him.
Great Job !!👍
So true... I was afraid of taking steroids for fear of becoming addicted to them. People could not understand how I kept my size all year round. I never used steroids. I was addicted to creatine when it became a thing, taking triple the amount suggested. This created problems so I transitioned to the original suggested amount. I would see so many guys in the gym shrivel in size. You knew they were off of the juice!
This man had an whole shopping car with beef,horsemeat he took the whole secction of meat😅
Brock Lesnar was allowed to take peds and ufc didn't do f' all, he was caught out when he fought Mark Hunt. So overeem shouldn't be the one who is put outhere as a cheat but it's just that he also has great genetics so his body grows better then others on peds, same as trt vitor. Look at vitor when he was 19 😅 he looked like an apex predator
Don’t forget he is already 44. Ubereem Overroid fought a long time and he confirmed he is retired.
What’s the update on Leo and Longevity Jon?
He still pissed his wife moved the milk
So glad he doesn't have cancer, you scared me JB. I really like Allistair, he really beat the shorts off Brock.
look at his early fights, he's naturally skinny. Since he's not fighting anymore no real reason to walk around with all that muscle. The man is nice and respectful to everyone and one of the greatest fighters to walk the planet. Thank this man for some great fights!
Even as natural bodybuilder I realize if u natural if u stop training a little u shape change but ur weight remains the same... but if the dude taking steroids stop he loses like alot of kilos bro... I have seen it bro.. that is why I was scared to take it because.. u suffer from body dismophoia
9:38 don't take that shit you don't need that. You will look old. Im 38 years no drugs no alcohol only traning and staying happy. Im ripped at 90kg. People think I'm under 30 years of age. Gym traning and cardio for 32 years. Started traning young with my father.
Ubereem has been gassed to the gills for years. Him vs Brock he was fuuuuucking jacked.
UFC 14:1 (Test ratio for Overeem)
I tried going vegan for a while and lost mass about as quickly as Overeem. 190lbs to 140lbs in a few months. Without animal fats the food just runs right through you and it's darn near impossible to keep weight on. Also felt incredibly weak and sick. Stopped doing that, normal diet 3,000-3,500 calories/day back to 200 lbs. i also looked frail and gaunt like he does now, unless you're supplementing testosterone and fats somehow you're just going to have zero energy.
I've never met a healthy natty vegan.
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.
On the other hand, I'm 62, eat mostly plant-based (not entirely vegan) and have lost the "dad bod". I can do 12 proper pullups (all the way down to my head over the bar), 80 pushups, and I can trounce my teenage kids in 100 metres. The longest-lived populations on the planet eat little to no animal protein. So with respect, I disagree that a well composed, plant-based diet sets you up for weakness and frailty.
@@mastersathlete7380 You Ignorant liar, The longest living human populations on earth generally have a diet that is mostly comprised of animal based products, not plants. Majority of nomadic tribes around the world have a very high life expectancy and are much more healthier than most other people in the developed parts of the world. These primitive nomadic tribes such as the Masai Mara warriors, Hadzabe tribe of tanzania, lemba tribe e.t.c have a diet consisting of mostly meat produced either by their livestock or by wild animals through hunting events, and these people have been thriving for thousands of years and currently do today without experiencing health issues unlike people in the west. 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.
@@mastersathlete7380 The population with greatest health and longevity on the planet are Okinawan Japanese that eat fish regularly. Any other unsupported nonsense you want to spout?
he dropped the weight to prevent cancer and is now bulking
We must keep in mind that nothing lasts forever. Let's not forget this fact.
When he fought broc, it was peak ubereem. Rumor has it, people in the ring side started growing extra muscles.
