The Classic Physique competitor said if a bodybuilder decides to push their body to the extreme, they should do it while they are young. “Whether it’s drugs, training, or nutrition, the best time to do it is while you’re young,” said the former powerlifter. In fact, Wheels even said, “The younger the better.” However, the 28-year-old said he didn’t mean that teenagers should take PEDs.
Wheels expanded on his take to say that the human body can withstand torment. However, people in their early 20s recover faster and older age groups. However, Wheels didn’t wish Sulek to use PEDs without any supervision. Despite being 28, Larry Wheels has suffered some of the side effects of steroid abuse. Larry Wheels also speculated if Sulek has had any “issues,” he is not talking about.
What other fitness influencers are worried about
Larry Wheels addressed that there might be a possibility that Sulek hasn’t opened up about PEDs. While the experienced fitness personalities are nearly certain that Sulek is an enhanced bodybuilder, the 21-year-old lifter hasn’t admitted to using steroids. Wheels highlighted that the young bodybuilder might be facing issues but hasn’t opened up about them on social media.

IFBB Pro Greg Doucette has also shown similar concern. The former enhanced bodybuilder has even pointed out short-term side effects of steroid use, like excessive acne on Sulek’s body. Most experts are worried that Sulek might be putting his health at risk. Since Sulek’s audience is even younger than him, many fitness personalities feel the 21-year-old is sending the wrong message.
