While discussing, Rogan asked Coleman about his adjustments with everybody else. Basically, Rogan wanted to know, how Coleman managed to handle the competition with others, who were also dreaming of getting bigger.
To which Coleman replied, “No, it was that thing. We need. I was trying to distance myself from everybody else. So I kept getting bigger and bigger. So nobody would catch up with me and what I block people on and stand there. You see me big up there like that, but, you know, it took a long time for me to get there, but I didn’t happen overnight. I put on about five pound of muscle between 5 and 10 pounds of muscle a year.”
Next, Coleman even talked about how this came from heavy lifting and a ‘lot of eating.’
What happened to Ronnie Coleman?
In the last few years, the eight-time Mr. Olympia title holder has been hospitalized several times. His depleting health condition is a matter of concern for the entire bodybuilding universe.
Since 2018, Coleman is undergoing back-to-back surgeries. First, he got surgery on his intestine, and a year later, he underwent another surgery for fixing four broken screws. All these surgeries cost him $2 million. However, each time Coleman recovered, he went to the gym.
Things worsened when reports claimed that the ‘GOAT’ of the bodybuilding world may never be able to walk again. The reason was the injuries that his body underwent while lifting weights. However, Coleman claimed that if the doctor had done his job better, he would have been walking.
Since then several videos of Coleman have been out, in which he is trying to gain moment again.
