Dave Palumbo 150lbs pic

Funny thing...last summer I started seeing my calves improving and wondered how they would look if I shaved them, so I did it. A week or so later I was over at my dads house and he noticed, because my legs are natually hairy. When I admitted to shaving them he shook his head and asked if there was something about me that he did not want to know. Lol. I told him that it was just a bodybuilding thing and that I was not switching teams. A couple other people made similar comments that month about my "gay behavior."

On another note, I have been on Rx here and there for a few years. I have seen Dave in videos doing interviews and talking with people. He is always very nice and positive with everyone. He is always smiling and so energetic. It is obvious that he loves what he does. He really seems interested in every person that he speaks with. I have never met him, but I would be honored too. He seems like a gentleman and a good person. I'm not into the weird earings, but who am I to judge. I made my father wonder for a minute if I was gay from doing something that half of you do. Lol.

... I think you're gay. :cheeky'sm
 
LOL

Wasn't he asking people he knew for their empty GH packages so he could refill them and sell them to newbies?

All these newbies (if you have been in this sport for only 10 or 15 years, you ARE a newbie!) talking like experts about shit they have NO IDEA about and then defending their "heroes"! :rolleyes:

I would agree with the different generation and when it comes to knowledge the new generation are going to be way ahead due to the internet. There is a lot of BS on the web but if you use it right you will be good.
 
It sure is easy to run that mouth and start rumor threads about people from the comfort of your home, isn't it?
 
Dave went to prison for about 7 months, not for selling the GH, a printing company was solicited to copy serostim labels and when they werent picked up the pharmaceutical was called, which started an FDA investigation which led to Dave. Dave pled it out federal.


Ak
 
So the label company called on him cause he didnt choose them for the labels? What was the actual charge if he never got caught selling anything?

A prominent Long Island body builder has been arrested by federal agents on charges of illegally selling a drug that is in high demand in both the body-building underground and among victims of HIV-AIDs, according to officials.

David Palumbo, a nationally competitive body builder and the editor of "Rx Muscle" magazine, was charged Wednesday in U.S District Court in Central Islip with illegally distributing a counterfeit version of the human growth hormone, somatropin.

Palumbo, 36, of 3708 Somerset Dr., Seaford, did not fight his removal to San Diego where federal officials plan to arraign him on charges of conspiracy to distribute somatropin, also known as Serostim, and to traffic in counterfeit products.

Palumbo's attorney, Marc Gann, of Carle Place, declined to comment, as did Assistant United States Attorney Wayne Baker.

The drug, which is belived to mimic a normal human growth hormone in fostering muscle development, is legally available by prescription to combat severe wasting among AIDs patients. But it is eagerly sought in the black market of body building for its ability to foster muscle growth, supposedly without side effects, officials say.

For that reason it is considered by officials to be one of the drugs most widely diverted for illegal use. Somatropin is also costly; a month's dose for an AIDS patient can cost over $5,000. Controversy has surfaced in the medical community over whether the benefits to AIDs patients outweigh the drug's expense and whether less expensive treatments are equally effective.

Palumbo allegedly bought 200 boxes of a counterfeit version of Serostim from a San Diego supplier in July 2002 and subsequently resold some of the drug to individuals in Colorado and Washington State, according to Thomas Nasiatka, an agent with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. A month's supply is considered to be four boxes, each containing seven injectable doses, one for each day of the week.

U.S. Magistrate Arlene Lindsey released Palumbo on $50,000 bail on the understanding that he would voluntarily surrender himself to the Justice Department in San Diego. If convicted on the charges, Palumbo could face up to five years in prison. "


Dave got a lot of hate and heat on the boards.....the thought at the time was that he knew the seros were fake he was selling....but many have said that he thought they were real coming from pharmacies and didn't knowingly sell fake GH...but then again only he really knows...he did the crime and time.

To be fair there were lots of counterfeit serostism and epogen (very high cost -huge profit margin drugs for fakes) and many other drugs in the pharmacies ...which is unreal in the US as you would think control from drug wholesalers would be dependable.
"The issue had come to her attention due to media coverage of New York teen Timothy Fagan. Tim had been injected back in 2002 with counterfeit Epogen after an emergency liver transplant at the age of 16. Tim’s drugs, it had ultimately been discovered, had been low dose 2,000 u/ml Epogen that was sold out the back door of a Florida pharmacy, “uplabeled” at a trailer park to 40,000 u/ml, a dose 20 times stronger, and sold back into the mainstream distribution system. His medication had been owned by at least 10 different companies around the country as they were traded through a vast secondary market of wholesalers before finding their way into his drugstore on Long Island and then his home.
so much went on with seros back in the early part of the 21rst century..lots of people went to jail for medicare fraud and illegally obtaining the hormone from AIDS patients.
 
NOT TRE.. poor dave gets a lot of crap blown his way lol.. dave got down to about 205.. he now is doing a stint with a trt company and promting them.. its on rxmuscle.. he is now back up to 230 or more.. looks better but not his 300 pound old self.. dave admitted he would love to get back to where he was but his shouders need to be replaced.. completely shot.. but he tries and train around it now..


Dave has never said he would love to get back to 300. He actually constantly says there's no reason to be big and he's trying to be healthier and go for longevity now. Everything else u said is pretty accurate.
 
I am more interested in how counterfeit and under dosed product found its way onto the shelves of a US pharmacy. Can you imagine that the kid needed this medicine to essentially save his life, and this shit happens! I would be very angry...

The kid across the street from me gets legit GH prescribed because he is chubby and supposedly short (however he looked normal in height and I have known much shorter kids). Anyway.....I believe they fedex his GH to him. I wonder if it is direct from the manufacturer or some other big drug warehouse.
