The reasons behind exposing the Liver King revealed

Steve, who earlier was approached by Liver King to assist him in his fitness, worked together for only a small period. Reason? Liver King’s health. After going through his profile, Steve drew his concern over his health because of his overall diet plan, PED usage, and blood work results. He even made it clear that had he worked with Brian, he would have refunded him whatsoever.

No matter what, Steve reveals that he would not have supported Brian’s claims of ‘staying natural.’ Though he adds that people from the fitness community were aware of his false claims, he left conflicted when Brian’s documentary came out. He adds that had he not taken the step, he “wouldn’t have been able to live with myself.”
