Arnold Schwarzenegger is warning of the dangers of abusing steroids while bodybuilding.
The “Terminator” star told Men’s Health for its July/August cover story that “people are dying” from abusing performance enhancing drugs.
When the 75-year-old was a bodybuilder in the 1970s, he said he legally did a regimen of testosterone and D-Bol under the supervision of a doctor.
“Bodybuilding always, always was considered a safe sport,” he said. “But now, it’s not. Now people are dying. They’re dying because of overdoses of drugs, and they don’t know what the f— they’re doing.”
He added, comparing himself to a rock climber who tells others not to take risks, “I recognize the fact that, who am I to say this? This is the guy who climbed without a rope.”
Schwarzenegger, who’s starring in the Netflix series FUBAR, about a CIA operative, said in an interview earlier this month with the Hollywood Reporter he has no plans of slowing down.
“I still work out every day, I ride my bike every day, and I make movies — show business is another part of my life. I add in my life, I never subtract,” he explained. “I love everything that I do. There’s no retiring. I’m still on this side of the grass, so I’m happy. My plan is to live forever — and so far, so good!”
