I work with a guy who is in his early 60's and was the state powerlifting champion when he was in his late 20's. He was 350 pounds back then and showed me pictures of himself. I didn't even recognize his face he changed so much. He has now had both knees replaced, both shoulders replaced and recently had back surgery to repair some problems. All this as a result of powerlifting. I asked it it was worth it. He said at the time he was part of a group of guys and it was like a lifestyle. No one thought about the long term harm they were doing.
I wish Brian Shaw luck and hope he has a good healthcare provider.
