Larry Wheels went through a mock meet and compared his TRT lifts to steroid lifts.
Larry Wheels has been leading up to completing a mock meet featuring the foundation lifts in the sport. Since weening off steroids, Wheels has been comparing his lifts now on TRT to when he was using PEDs. Recently, Wheels completed his mock meet and compared results with his PRs on steroids.
In April, Wheels decided to take a look at his health and had his heart examined. When all checked out well, he decided to begin getting away from steroids and went on Testosterone Replacement Therapy. He has seen significant changes in his physique, as he has slimmed down but remains shredded. Also, Wheels is as strong as ever and continues to compare lifts.
During the mock meet, Wheels completed bench press and deadlift under the rules of powerlifting but added knee wraps when squatting.
