I tend to agree. But, unlike other pro athletes, pro-wrestlers don't usually have the option of talking time off to heal bad sprains and pulled muscles. About the only injuries that they can let bench them are borken bones, and torn muscles. As their buisness is no play, no pay. The example I know well enough to use is one Brett Heart gave in the 1997 documentary about him called "Wrestling with shadows." He broke his sternum doing a match. And took off 8 weeks. But his sick pay he was getting from his contract (he said $200-$300 every few weeks) wasn't enough to live on. And in his own words "I was back out wrestling way before I should have been." So these guys tend to be walking pharmasies of preformance enhancers, pain killers, and other "recreational pharmasuticals."

Absolutely correct, the latest and greatest is Equigen. Sadly it dosent come with any literature as to why some somatotropins are species specific but cavaet emptor as they say.
Stuff works though. :thumbsup:
