Bodybuilding consists of many genres that have transformed into new sports altogether. Some focus on strength, while others focus on weight training. However, they have roots in the same sport. For example, many participants in the Strongman and Powerlifting championships may have relevance in the bodybuilding field too. One such athlete is powerlifter Larry Wheels.
Larry Wheels is a professional powerlifter and strongman. However, he also interacts with bodybuilders. The athlete’s process of bulking up is similar to any other bodybuilder. Recently, he put up two photos of himself on Instagram. These two pictures compared his body build before and after varying doses of testosterone.

Larry Wheels amazed by the stark difference
Powerlifter Larry Wheels underwent a shocking transformation since giving up on performance-enhancing drugs in August. However, he chose to continue with Testosterone Replacement Therapy. In fact, the said athlete increased his intake of testosterone. Per his latest Instagram post, he shifted from “175mg of testosterone vs 500mg SWIPE”. The results have been shocking. Fans could spot more bulk and definition after his switch. But perhaps the most significant difference was how younger he looked compared to his picture before.

Larry gave up on PEDs in August. The athlete posted a comparison of two months later where he looked drastically young. Steroid abuse had aged his face, according to the caption under his picture. However, by giving up those drugs and increasing his testosterone intake, he was able to reverse the effects. The champion felt better about his body and progress.
Incidentally, the powerlifter trains under legendary bodybuilder and 8x Mr. Olympia Ronnie Coleman. He shared a heartwarming video where the star bodybuilder knighted Larry Wheels. The champion also showed off his impressive strength by weight-training in front of Ronnie Coleman.
