In this episode, we speak with TMCycles, a YouTube content creator and physique coach, about his transition from bodybuilding to functional fitness and the effects of coming off of performance-enhancing drugs. TMCycles, also known as Thomas Maw, is well-known for his transparent discussions about anabolic steroid usage on his YouTube channel.
Tom opens up about how growing up on a council estate in Lewisham and later relocating to Bromley shaped his outlook on life and how being surrounded by the right people at the right time led him to pursue a career in functional fitness. He also delves into the vulnerable topic of men's mental health and relationships, specifically in the context of bodybuilding and extreme pursuits.
Tom discusses the effects of living a hedonistic lifestyle and the impact it can have on various aspects of one's life. He also reveals how his steroid consumption may have affected his neurotoxicity and psyche, and shares advice on how he is proactively dealing with these effects.
Additionally, we delve into the topic of steroids in the public domain, including the exposé of "liver king," and question whether online content should be more regulated.
