So yes, it\u2019s also true that I\u2019ve tried pharmaceutical-grade growth hormone, and I finally found success in managing therapeutic levels in the normal range. Yes, this is true. I\u2019ve continued on with .6 cc\u2019s of testosterone per week, roughly 120 milligrams of testosterone a week. And no, I don\u2019t take any other steroids like Nandrolone or Winstrol. But I have tried them in the past without success.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Liver King then addressed the matter of why he does steroids, saying, \u201cWhen I talk about the 85% of the population that suffers from self esteem issues, that\u2019s me.

Because I lied and I misled a lot of people. I stated that this is a complicated as f*** topic, at least to me it is because before social media, I was rich and anonymous. And after social media, I\u2019m still rich, but no longer anonymous. And I never expected this kind of exposure in the public eye. It\u2019s been tricky as f*** to navigate. Well, clearly, I did it wrong. And I\u2019m here now to set the record straight.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Yes, I\u2019ve done steroids. And yes, I am on steroids monitored and managed by a trained hormone clinician. Liver King, the public figure, was an experiment to spread the message, to bring awareness to the 4,000 people a day who kill themselves, that 80,000 people a day that try to kill themselves. Our people are hurting at record rates with depression, autoimmune, anxiety, infertility, low ambition in life.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Our young men are hurting the most, feeling lost, weak, and submissive. So I made it my job to model, teach, and preach a simple, elegant solution called \u2018Ancestral Living,\u2019 the nine ancestral tenants, so our people no longer have to suffer. So we can collectively express our highest and most dominant form. This is my fight. This is why I exist. While spreading the message, I\u2019ve been on several podcasts. And when asked if I\u2019ve ever taken steroids, I\u2019ve always said, \u2018No, I don\u2019t touch the stuff, not going to touch the stuff, never touched the stuff.\u2019 That was a lie.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I convinced myself that this had nothing to do with the ancestral message, I convinced myself that I\u2019m not a competitive athlete of any kind. So who the f*** am I cheating? I convinced myself that this topic was a placeholder for a far more important conversation. I convinced myself that this would overshadow the 36 years of working out, usually twice a day, without PEDs. I\u2019ve convinced myself that this was the vocal minority, usually in the fitness category, driving to an unproductive conversation. And I had convinced myself that this would be the wrong message to send to the 15 year old boys. So I continually dismissed it. And I dug myself into a bigger and deeper hole. I have only myself to blame. I did that. And it was all wrong.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I will be better. I will talk about it openly.
