Thank you so much for saying that. I really appreciate it more than you know because I’ve been bodybuilding in a vacuum alone in my basement for most of this lol. So I haven’t been able to get much feedback. I started going to a planet fitness near me though because I needed more effective leg training.
So the backstory: is that I stopped going to medical school in 2014 or so because shortly before that I started a business that began consuming 100-110 hour work weeks. I would work straight through and not eat, that’s how I got so skinny. I was a grow room designer for medical weed growing facilities and a grower and researcher in my own rooms to increase crop yield and decrease production time and inventing new nutrient chemical sources.
I opted to make money instead of continuing to take on more student debt down the road.
Then during the pandemic coincidentally I lost that grow business to my main partner being older and retiring and loosing my connections in the industry and lost all my money I’d invested as a result. So I bought a bunch of weights and moved them into
My grow room so I could still work in there everyday. Only working out instead of actual labor work haha. Then I just became obsessed. The ped / drug/ health end of things was also my way of reconnecting with the medical and research end of what I was doing in school.
Note on why I got so skinny - and medical school I used to race pro level gncc and enduro racing and got into a crash during practice that exploded both my lungs like balloons from the pressure. I actually had natural dmt flash when my blood oxygen dropped to 38% since my entire chest and lungs filled with blood and sounded like the most horrific bong you’d ever imagine every time I tried to breath lol.I was pretty likely to die but was saved with a 13 day medical coma and an open thoracotomy surgery that sawed through my entire lat and back muscles to fix my lungs. So I developed a huge opiate prescription and tolerance and would blow most of my profit ( other than reinvesting in business, on dope) so I’d just work like 100 hour weeks + 365 for about a decade almost and not eat. Being on opiates and taking Adderall made me look like the junkie methhead lol. I’ve been off of opiates since July 30th 2015 but I kept working and not eating and never regained the weight back.
