Not just die for a sport or hobby to say. But die doing or for something that means everything to you. Bodybuilding may be all he has and loves. If he is willing to die for something that makes him happy no matter what it is it's his decision.
Working out is part of my life. I will never stop or give up my vitamins no matter the health cost. I use very little and sporadically nowadays. But it is a very big and important part of my life.
Die doing what when how you want it's your life your terms. Some people know they are going to die from smoking. Some know they are going to die from drinking alcohol so who is right to tell them to stop something they love even if it kills them.
You do not even have to abuse the two drugs to die from use. So should they seek mental health care? Just a thought how we throw rocks and judge people when we live in a glass house.
I'm not judging you or anyone else and I'm not throwing stones. I'm giving my opinion just like you're giving yours! To me, your logic is definitely skewed! The day medical professionals tell me my health and/or mortality are at stake due to PED's, I'm done. Why would I want to die? Just to stay big?? Being happy is the more important endeavor, so being able to lift weights is my base. My friends and family won't think any less of me because I'm not as big.
You said,
"If he is willing to die for something that makes him happy no matter what it is it's his decision." It certainly is but willing to die? Really?? What could be that important? When I hear people say that, they are either young where illness and death seems so far away or unrealistic or some type of emotional trauma has happened to them where they don't value their life anymore.
Yes there are realities individuals have to face when it comes to sports, MMA, boxing, football, NASCAR (any type of racing), etc. To be willing to die, what's the point in that? It sounds like a bunch of misplaced bravado by someone that doesn't value themself.
