“Get a group of competitive athletes together. Everyone wants to win. Got large sums of money up for grabs. Guys are gonna do whatever it takes to win.”

“The bodybuilders and the professional sport of bodybuilding have gone to the next step, where all of a sudden, the body does not look as acceptable, simply because it’s too big and it doesn’t have any talent behind it, and the neck is 23 inches and the calves are 18. The proportion is gone.”

“They ask the Olympic athletes, 'if you could take a drug right now that would kill you in five years but guarantee you a gold metal, would you take it?' More than 50% said, 'Yes'! They would take it even knowing that it would kill them five years later. This is what these athletes do. This is their lives. This is their livelihood. This is how they make money. This is everything they know. Do you really think you’re gonna convince them to stop?”

“The audience wants to see a spectacle. When they go to see a show, they don’t want to see someone that looks like them. They want to see something extreme. So we have to get huge. We have to go to the next level.”
