@@xtremelemon8612 Yes you're right as most sports in general are riddled with drug use. I personally think it'll be some time yet before athletes start to open up in regards to the huge money sports.

I love anything that Patrick Bet-David produces but I especially love the fact that Brandon Curry is bringing the absolute real to this discussion here. I followed Brandon since the start of his career, and as a natural bodybuilder I really appreciate the truthfulness and the honesty here. Brandon congratulations on your Mr. O win and keep bringing it my brother!
Jimmy J. O'Hearn's 100% Natty just ask him lmao. Btw did you see he fell of the stage guest posing month or so ago? Freaking hilarious! All of a sudden he's there then,boom gone! Hahaha
His face never changes , he could be 2 days out of the Olympia here and you would not be able to tell unlike the 90s when if you were in shape your skull was visible.
I agree totally, I don't know what these guys take but if you diet down to these fat percentages your cheek bones should be sticking out and your eye sockets should be sunken. From my experience you did not need to see the body under the clothes to see who is in shape you cold tell by the gaunt face.
Housey 101 100% right on . Just look a dorians face in 1993 Olympia and compare that to Curry face 2019 Olympia , if you have eyes it’s not even debatable that 90s bodybuilders were in better condition.
It's awesome that it's on the table now a days. I'm 51 now and when i was in my 20's, taking PED's and HUGE my answer to everyone was always Nope! I eat a lot of carrots. Lol. Everyone knew i was lying too. So nice we can be more honest these days. Well to a certain extent. I try to be honest with my kids on so many things like this so they have an idea what to expect. Either way sometimes ya just gotta find out for yourself no matter what anyone/expert says. Thank you Mr. Olympia for doing this interview and explaining it the best careful way you can. It still takes a world of commitment and crazy hard work in and out of the gym to get to this level and most people don't understand that. Some just say. Eh. He's on steroids. Great Video. Much respect!
@FichDich InDemArsch Wow sounds like your big words are on steroids. And yeah 30+ years ago i was secretive about it because 30+ years ago i didn't even know what i was doing. smh. No one came out back then. Not Arnold, Lou, Sly. No one. I was then and still am now NO One. Thanx for caring. Lol
@FichDich InDemArsch Not complaining at all. Your too defensive bud. That's the problem here and with the world today. Have a snickers and regain yourself. Thanx for the laugh. Butt bye. Lol
It’s so refreshing to hear a current top elite bodybuilder of this era speak candidly about the drugs aspect in bodybuilding, rather than just pushing that tired old narrative of; ?? drugs .... oh no I’m natural, I just have great genetics, eat lots of small but frequent meals and train 3 hours a day 6 days a week and lift heavy all the time.... yeah right... don’t get me wrong, of course there is part that but what he’s speaking on is that X factor which doesn’t always get touched upon. Hats off to the man 👊🏽 candid talking. Love it.
Have not followed Bodybuilding in the past few years and don’t know much about Brandon but this is some of the most solid advice I’ve ever heard a pro give
Brandon I'm my opinion is one of the best ambassadors I ever seen! Only been Mr. O for a few months an already put in more work than Phil his whole 7 years. In fact I haven't seen Phil do much of anything in comparison to Brandon. This is how you represent the sport, he has openly talked about PEDs and most importantly talks to the kids! I got a lot of love and respect for Brando, it's sad how people bash him for winning the Olympia!
Johnny G your right he’s the best bodybuilder in the world! One of only a handful to win the Arnold Classic and mr Olympia in the same year! Troll all you want Brandon is the best mr Olympia in the last 10 years!
This is exactly what Ronnie Coleman told he did. This is what Kai Green talked about and I'm glad that Brandon Curry shares the same opinion. Train naturally and attain the limit of natural potential of your physique and only start using PEDs to develop and grow further to attain the maximum limit of your genetic potential only if you choose bodybuilding as your profession. Never do it just because you want to be the biggest guy in the room.
I had a friend who used to play D1 football in the 90s at a top 10 school, and he said that pretty much all the players were on roids, and all the coaches knew. I don't know if he was exaggerating, but I assume so... Interesting insight that he said first learn about building muscle before you consider adding in a variable of roids (rather than a point blank "don't do it").
Probably wasn't exagerrating I knew people on my highschool football team on roids in hopes of getting a scholarship and most of the ones on it didn't have a chance for a scholarship anyways. Easy to imagine that the more competitive and higher level the competition is everyone would be enhanced
100% agree. The best cycles i ever ran, i didnt even know i was on. Its all too easy to become toxic, and harm yourself from using too much. Less is more. Diet is such an important part of the whole game
Plague Doc its called me being an adult and doing what i want. I have been cycling for over 25yrs and have had zero health issue due to being diligent with bloodwork, and being cautious and healthy.
@@quix99 Still zero need for it. Can be in incredible shape without PEDs. And the extra muscle mass is worse for the joints to carry around, but hey what do I know I only work in nutrition and sports science :)
Plague Doc oh so you are one of those holier than thou types. Well i work in automotive, but im the first to say i dont kno everything about automotive. You should try it sometime. I have zero joint issues, zero artery blockages, so do yourself a favor and dont be a dick. I had a test level of 175 at 27, and still got to 198lbs at 7% at 5’8. Now im 215. Not heavy there buddy. My frame can handle 240 very easily and still have a resting hesrt rate of 53 and bp of 115/65 on cycle.
Strongishman lol dont believe everything you watch. Wtf u think you go from benchin 135 to 405 within a week? Lol doesnt work like that. Do yourself a favor, dont comment on things you dont know. Adults who take gear are usually very mindful of every obstacle that they can face. And fyi..anabolic doc seems like a good dude, like his content. But i prefer to talk to drs who DO steroids, and religious bloodwork and actually know how to cycle properly. Fyi test...isnt best
I really like Brandon. I hope he keeps doing interviews like this; he is a great ambassador for the sport. Very well spoken and humble. I can't say I think in 2020 he'll retain the title, it depends who enters but we'll see. It'd be great to see him bring his legs up.
Very well spoken. A well thought out answer that probably has been asked to him a 100 times before. He doesnt deny use and I thought he was well spoken intelligent and professional. You gotta learn from the bottom up about your body mind and reasoning for wanting to go done this path or it can lead you down a hole that you cannot get out of.
To anyone out there considering PED please reconsider. My workout partner, who was the most amazing motivator and coach and could have been among the top with his talent as such. This great man died from PED complications just before one of his shows. Julio Hernandez had so much more to give to this world and was way to young at 31 to pass. Please please think twice before going down that road. Its not worth it. Julio you are missed every single day and not a day gos by that so many people mourn the loss of your presence!
If a rapist said, “at least I didn’t rape/murder anyone in my 20’s, so in my 30’s it should be ok.” If you take PED’s at anytime, you take PED’s. Period. Do not make excuses.
He's right and it's awesome he is telling people this. Steroids and Peds in general are so complicated theres a science to it if you want to keep yourself alive
Good advice to be honest. I been lifting for 20 years. And have done like 3 cycles in my life and don’t plan on doing any more ever again. It’s been 3 years since I have done it. I would say, don’t do until you plan on being really dedicated and stay in it longer than 6 weeks. And stay away from Tren lol.
@Loc T Your picture is deceiving. Reading your reply I thought you'd for sure be wearing a little helmet. Your a tard. Like you actually know Kai... Well spoken meaning he is very literate. He annunciates clear and he is polite. He is not arrogant and he loves what he does. If you think he's not clear because he's been dodging the whole will you return to the Olympia question for the last 3 years... Then who cares it's his decision and he has nothing to prove if he chooses to not come back. For the idiots like you who hang over his every word as he dances around the question, that's your fault. He doesn't have to give an answer. It's real simple. If he wanted to compete he would have the last few years. So stop acting like you know a damn thing because, a kid I am not and a bodybuilder you are not.
I was 18 and I pretty much thought body builders where meatheads. I met Flex Wheeler in the off season in 97 and was blown away, this interview once again reaffirmed my opinion that the meatheads are insanely smart.
For anyone hating on Brandon saying he's a "weak" Mr O, all any athlete can do is beat the man/men in front of him. And having the ability to stay in the game is part of the competition. Its another battle to win. Brandon's a bodybuilder. He competes. And he won. He's the rightful champ.
One of the few pro bodybuilders be open about his use during his career. Yeah we all know they’re taking them, but it takes a man to come out and say it✊🏾
I’m a pharmacist and I do get asked about PEDs and as a power lifter, and this is the same advice I give everybody. I’ve never used them myself. because it’s not my profession and people need to know what their genetic potential is naturally. The drugs will not make you a champion if you don’t have the ability to make gains without them, and starting too early will just impair your physiology at a time when you have peak hormone levels naturally. Well spoken Mr O
People keep acting surprised he's not stupid and I wonder what even made y'all think he would not be intelligent in the first place. Hell most pro body builders are smart, you don't get that far being an idiot.
There is absolutely reasons to be taking gear even if you’re not a pro bodybuilder. Gear and all of its effects are fun as fuck to experience both psychologically and physically.
First time I've heard Brandon Curry talk. He has a good head on his shoulders. Smart and sounds wise.

You gotta learn from the bottom up about your body mind and reasoning for wanting to go done this path or it can lead you down a hole that you cannot get out of.
Appreciate his candid answers. He seems like a great guy.
Love these interviews with bodybuilders - keep them coming 👍
Real shit! He's a good Mr. Olympia
Brandon is really a charismatic dude. Happy he won, been watching him improve for a lot of years now.
Great ambassador for bodybuilding, great advice, incredible honesty
This guy is great, everything he says makes sense, good advice
"People will accept that, because that's what they want to believe."
He's absolutely correct, you gotta admire his honesty
Content on this ch definitely been A+
Well put!
One of the most articulate bodybuilders ever! This guy has as many brains as muscle.
This man speaks the truth. Once you start there is no going back. Start too early and you will never reach that higher level.
I respect this mans honesty and hard work. He is a good guy 👍
Interviewer looked like he was challenging Curry to a “who can take a better sip of coffee”
Wise words - thats what should be considered being real in bodybuilding
Thxx for honest review
Even his nose has full muscle bellies.
Leonard Ellerbie is right behind him.
thats racist !! he doesn't have "white features" doesnt mean he is ugly...
guy looks great overall...
*_I’m black and I find this comment not only NOT racist but 💯 % hilarious!!! Good one._*
Eudtg Laery Finally, someone who isn’t a wet flannel
A lot of things he said is something we need to make youngsters listen.. awesome guy.. starting to like him evem more..♥️
To anyone out there considering PED please reconsider. My workout partner, who was the most amazing motivator and coach and could have been among the top with his talent as such.
This great man died from PED complications just before one of his shows. Julio Hernandez had so much more to give to this world and was way to young at 31 to pass. Please please think twice before going down that road. Its not worth it. Julio you are missed every single day and not a day gos by that so many people mourn the loss of your presence!
Nice and truthful interview finally a mr o that is speaking legit about during his reign 👍👍👍
Great interview
If a rapist said, “at least I didn’t rape/murder anyone in my 20’s, so in my 30’s it should be ok.” If you take PED’s at anytime, you take PED’s. Period. Do not make excuses.
Very surprised how openly he discussed the topic ! And the way he advised people not to use, if your not competing.
Best advice and interview I have ever heard from a Pro bodybuilder
One minute in and already impressed
Word!! Does it get any better than Brandon Curry & Pat Bet-David ? 😀
Love that some pro’s are coming out and talking about drugs. More young adults need to hear this. Health and longevity are key
He's right and it's awesome he is telling people this. Steroids and Peds in general are so complicated theres a science to it if you want to keep yourself alive
thank you for being honest. Better speaker than the last Mr.O
This guy is telling it how it is. What a great advocate for the sport
Good advice to be honest. I been lifting for 20 years. And have done like 3 cycles in my life and don’t plan on doing any more ever again. It’s been 3 years since I have done it. I would say, don’t do until you plan on being really dedicated and stay in it longer than 6 weeks. And stay away from Tren lol.
The needle in the thumbnail 💀💀💀💀💀😭😭😭😭😂😂😂😂🤕🤕🤕
Awesome representation of MR OLYMPIA.....
As well spoken as Kai, as honest and straight forward as Haney, and more likeable than Phil
@Loc T Your picture is deceiving. Reading your reply I thought you'd for sure be wearing a little helmet. Your a tard. Like you actually know Kai... Well spoken meaning he is very literate. He annunciates clear and he is polite. He is not arrogant and he loves what he does. If you think he's not clear because he's been dodging the whole will you return to the Olympia question for the last 3 years... Then who cares it's his decision and he has nothing to prove if he chooses to not come back. For the idiots like you who hang over his every word as he dances around the question, that's your fault. He doesn't have to give an answer. It's real simple. If he wanted to compete he would have the last few years. So stop acting like you know a damn thing because, a kid I am not and a bodybuilder you are not.
@Loc T y'all both dumb . kais dumb too
Much needes info. Thanks Brandon for your honesty.
Respect. About time someone keeps it real! Tell us how you take your 3CCs...
He takes more then 3 cc every day when he's getting ready for a scheduled show lol
Great talk
Great to see you on top Gifted! From back in the old t- nation days. You certainly were/are!
I was 18 and I pretty much thought body builders where meatheads. I met Flex Wheeler in the off season in 97 and was blown away, this interview once again reaffirmed my opinion that the meatheads are insanely smart.
For anyone hating on Brandon saying he's a "weak" Mr O, all any athlete can do is beat the man/men in front of him. And having the ability to stay in the game is part of the competition. Its another battle to win. Brandon's a bodybuilder. He competes. And he won. He's the rightful champ.
Brandon is the best ambassador as Mr.O since Jay
Truth
Nice honest interview nice guy
Very elequetly put. Mad props to the new Mr. O Brandon Curry
This was super candid. Made me realize
I didn't know B curry at all
One of the few pro bodybuilders be open about his use during his career. Yeah we all know they’re taking them, but it takes a man to come out and say it✊🏾
Not rly..when u have sponsorship which is where they make money !! Cuz competing doesnt make shit. Its being smart and saying no comment.
good message b
Brandon is a legitimate Mr. Olympia. He deserved to win for sure. And not because the rest of the line up wasn't good.
That was fantastic and honest
I’m a pharmacist and I do get asked about PEDs and as a power lifter, and this is the same advice I give everybody. I’ve never used them myself. because it’s not my profession and people need to know what their genetic potential is naturally. The drugs will not make you a champion if you don’t have the ability to make gains without them, and starting too early will just impair your physiology at a time when you have peak hormone levels naturally. Well spoken Mr O
Dam hes alot smarter then I thought he would be and just seems genuinely like a nice i could be wrong but that's the way he comes through as
People keep acting surprised he's not stupid and I wonder what even made y'all think he would not be intelligent in the first place. Hell most pro body builders are smart, you don't get that far being an idiot.
5:16 listening to this and thought they were chopping and snorting lines lol
Brandon Curry is the ambassador we needed for bodybuilding
Ambassador? get outta here with that ambassador crap.
Well put from the boss !👌
There is absolutely reasons to be taking gear even if you’re not a pro bodybuilder. Gear and all of its effects are fun as fuck to experience both psychologically and physically.
How this video got an unlike I do not know. Great content
His experience in the game gave him the answers we’re looking for ,know your limitations
I like how he keeps looking at him.
