The American Gladiator star addressed his ‘fake natty’ accusations head-on yet revealed nothing. “I ain’t clearing no rumors,” the 55-year-old wrote in the caption. Mike O’Hearn pre-emptively understood that posting a physique update would inevitably draw those who believe he lies about using ste***ds. “I probably did do it, and if I didn’t, I might,” added the bodybuilder.

After years of listening to his critics trying to prove that he uses performance-enhancing d*ugs, Mike O’Hearn decided to go on the offensive in his post. Mike O’Hearn had already set the tone for the conversation in the comments. The 55-year-old bodybuilder also made sure to write the caption in such a way that it would address the issue but not clarify it.
Mike O’Hearn didn’t admit to being ‘fake natty’ with clever wordplay. In fact, he didn’t even mention what he was talking about. Yet, people in the comments understood exactly which issue The Titan addressed in his caption. Some people even took the former powerlifter’s side, saying it didn’t matter if he was enhanced.
They said even enhanced bodybuilders would have a tough time painting such a physique for over three decades. So how does Mike O’Hearn do it at 55?

Many things contribute to The Titan’s success
While ste***ds may or may not contribute to Mike O’Hearn’s physique, multiple other factors have allowed the bodybuilding veteran to maintain such a physique at his age. The former champion has never deviated from maintaining his discipline. However, the bodybuilder also periodically partakes in some extreme practices.
The 55-year-old practices a method he coined the 30-day blitz. O’Hearn employs this method whenever he needs to get extremely shredded, like in the picture he posted on Instagram. During his period, the bodybuilder also makes changes to his diet. In one of his videos, Mike O’Hearn explained he eats “a lot more fats,” with high protein and some carbs during a blitz.
