Marc and steroids
 
http://www.sundayworld.com/style/showbiz/love-shack

Article from his Tallifornia reality tv show a few years back


Quote:

Marc also denies widespread rumours he was kicked out of the army for steroid abuse, and he and the show's producers maintain he had an honourable discharge after serving four years.

"I've no time for people who do steroids, you're messing with your body and with your life," Marc, from Ballymun, north Dublin, stresses.

"That's someone being jealous. I can't walk down the street without someone saying 'steroid head' because I'm in shape. This takes an awful lot of work and a lot of people don't realise that.

He adds: "I served for four years in the army and I absolutely loved it. I was in the artillery, but I left because it wasn't stimulating enough, educational wise."

Mark did an access course to start a science degree and then he got a job working in a lab in Manchester after two years.
I always suspected steroids were a moot point for him, and I would have wound him up and it's something that would push his buttons. He can dish it out so it would be interesting to see if he would be able to handle some "banter", but I suspect he would go ape.

He's about to become a PHD in chemistry. He's aware of the science behind why steroids are as bad as they are. I'd be rather surprised if he used them. Given his height it's a lot easier for him to appear bulky and he's probably been lifting heavy for over a decade considering the was in the army for four years prior to beginning his undergrad.

What a load of bollox,I will defend him ,my brother is built like Marc but slightly smaller,his arms and thighs aren't so big,but he has muscles,he goes to the Gym everyday,eats well and drinks protein shakes,there is no way he takes steroids and he has also had jealous friends etc,saying he has been on the steroids ,people need to realise ,you can get a fit body without steroids.

It's rare to be that size without the use of steroids.

did anyone comment on Kieran? No, and he was a seriously muscled guy. Don't see why it should be an automatic assumption that steroids are involved

Kieran had very low body fat, but he was not built as big as Marc is

Marc looks like he's had his teeth whitened and his face botoxed as well

It takes hard work and dedication,that's all,nothing proves Marc has taken steroids,it's just another stick to beat him with

Nothing wrong with the teeth whitening at all,as for the botox,that is up to him,millions of people do that

Whether you use steroids or not it takes hard work. But it is quite rare for a guy to be as big as Marc is without using them.

By the way, my problem with Marc is his bullying towards people. I've consistently said women and men are different and should be judged differently.

oh he is deffo on the juice

Maybe Marc doesn't agree with you ? I dont expect to be treat differently to a man ,I have a great sense of humour and an ability to see what is being said in a nasty and a fun way

He certainly doesn't agree with me that it's wrong to bully people. Because that's what he's doing.

Marc is ugly.

Built or not built. End off.

That's a very narrow outlook on life. If he cares a lot about the way he looks and wants to do things like that, then what's the problem?

Vicky. 11-06-2015 02:48 PM

I honestly don't understand people who use steroids. I thought the whole point of being big was to be strong and such. As far as I am aware (and its not really somethihng I have looked into in depth so I may be wrong) 'muscles' from roids are just water? So you look stronger but actually arent...

crazycolaist 11-06-2015 03:09 PM

If he is about to get a PHD then he is actually probably a respectable person in the world of sciences (if he is actually a good intelligent guy in the working enviorment) This world needs more people like Mark who break sterotypes.

agreed beetlejuice sexist against men

Beso 11-06-2015 03:18 PM

he has the genitals of a steriod abuser.

dyfed 11-06-2015 04:33 PM

I thought it was funny we haven't seen him do any exercise or try to keep in shape..

He only likes to exercise with Cristian. :hehe:

The people who are so certain that their family members aren't using steroids make me laugh. Guys who use steroids don't go tell their family members about it. I'm also skeptical that they are built like quadzilla Marc, without pics to confirm.

I hope people aren't seriously referring to him as a scientist. He's likely a college drop out and works as a lab assistant.

If that's aimed at me,I know my brother better than you thankyou very much,so don't tell me what he does and doesn't do,he works hard to keep his body fit,he is no where as big as Marc,but he is pretty ripped.due to diet,excercise and hard work.

He began his undergraduate degree after transferring from the Army. Got a job working in a lab as he studied for his PhD which he recently completed. He also supplemented his income with the reality show and stripping. He's hardly a dropout if he is finished a PhD. He has also managed a media career alongside doing a PhD. Dude is smart.

Eh, very few scientists are like the cast of the big bang theory. I studied science and out of a class of 400 there was maybe 10-20 people who were remotely stereotypical

You have no idea whether your brother uses steroids or not. More to the point, you just said that he trains and eats well, and is "nowhere near as big as Marc." You're actually supporting the idea that Marc is on steroids by pointing out that lifting and eating well by themselves don't usually achieve anything close to those results.

Is there any verifiable public record of him receiving a PhD? I will eat my shoe if Marc has a PhD in chemistry.

Got to admit when he first emerged from the time bomb machine from his VT I actually thought he was a female to male (FTM) transgendered man. It was his eye brows.:shrug:

Also, to all the people who say he's got a PhD Chemistry so he's to knowledgeable to do to understand effects of steroids, GPs have been struck off for taking steroids so I don't think Marc would be an exception.

I have more of an idea than you do,he has only be doing it a short time,so I presume if he carries on he will get bigger,I've told him to stop as he is big enough,but at the end of the day it's up to him,and I do know he doesn't use steroids,as he's too much of a wuss,I would guess Marc has been doing it for a long time hence his bulk,but what he chooses to do is also up to him.
