Bodybuilding as a sport is magnificent on stage. However, to attain their goals, bodybuilding entities often over-strain their bodies to reach a level where life-threatening turns into reality. These fitness enthusiasts do not restrain themselves to anyone’s warnings. Their immense desire thus takes the shape of an irreversible mistake that cannot be undone later on.

Rich Piana, who popularised the saying, “One day you may” had always astonished people with his massive build. Although he never underwent the Pro level, his popularity is still felt well-interwoven within the community.

Rogan further continued to remark on his arms being artificial-looking. He said,?“The size of his arm, it’s like, he’s got a person that’s head is attached to his shoulder. And the person’s like holding their body. Like this, his bicep was a person’s body with their arms crossed. It’s like the three of arms put together.”

However, they remarked, “They were suspecting painkillers apparently. All the big cycles that he did were like a long time ago and he doesn’t really do those big cycles anymore.”
