Hey, what's up guys? I'm Scott from Muscularstrength.com and today
We're gonna be talking about some of the disgusting things that's going on in the fitness world
especially with YouTube Fitness and competing and you know
It used to be that I could just make a video talking about who's natty and who's fake natty and who's giving good information or
bullshit information for views on Instagram in YouTube
Now all of a sudden we get to talk about who's beating and raping women and who's not these are some pretty serious
allegations and these allegations are against people that are
winning titles have a huge following
Lots of people looking up to them and it's like who we looking up to who we who are we
idolizing paying all kinds of money to
Companies are sponsoring it's like
We need to do more
You know morals and values check now before we start giving anybody anything and you know
Obviously guys everyone's talking about
where all the allegations that are coming out right now
And i'm gonna focus on Larry Wheels for this video guys
Because well the main reason is for Shawn from what I understood at first
he had a bail he was accused of rape and at first his bail was like
$750,000 and then some new evidence came out and it got reduced by about five hundred thousand and
It doesn't really seem to be a lot of evidence coming out there yet. And that's gonna be a key term for this video
It's gonna be evidence
because I don't want to just start throwing people under the bus because the Internet has a mind of its own and
people tend to want to talk about things that are disgusting and bad because they're fun to talk about so
You know a story stats off maybe with a few a few minor facts and details and then over the course of like an hour
Of being on the Internet all of a sudden you have a million other
variations of the story and not all the facts and all the details so we'll get into all that but you know for Shawn the
amount of money for him to post bail went down cool
maybe some information came out, but he's still banned from bodybuilding as far as I know
and competing and then with Jeremy I mean
It's a lot different than with Larry right now for Larry all we have is that voice recording from his ex-girlfriend
But with Jeremy it's multiple women coming forward
Photos police report like there's a lot more evidence there now
I'm still not gonna throw him under the bus because I'm not a judge or jury here
I'm not there seeing all of the evidence but it seems like with him
Maybe there was some beatings happening but moving on to Larry. I watched the video guys and
You know, I want to say something not to offend you
But for my perspective, I've been through a lot in my life. I've seen a lot like I've done a lot
I have a lot of real-world experience. No pun intended
This isn't a laughing video, but I'm sorry
You know, I listened to her video and it to me
It just sounds like a super heated argument between two people in a relationship
That is we'll say very passionate and I say that because I really can't wrap my head around
How you can stay in a relationship with someone who
You're telling me has cheated on you since basically day one and you stay with them for five years, you know
There must be some underlying tones that we don't see here
Well, I wouldn't stay with a chick that cheated on me since day one
It's like at that point it comes down to self-worth am I worth
More than being with somebody who's gonna cheat on me and treat me like shit
Like so there must be some underlying tones or some some deep connection and some love that I just don't understand
I wouldn't let a chick cheat on me for five years. I would just bounce and I'd say see you later. That's just me. So
Her side of the story initially to me as soon as she says that loses a bit of credibility
Oh he's been cheating on you for five years, but yet you guys are still together
So clearly there's some kind of bond there that I don't know also
the the recording itself
and Kenny KO made a video on this and he really went off on Larry and he's calling him all kinds of names and
Rightfully, so if it's true, but you know, my wife and I were listening to the voice recording
Yeah, there was a lot of it sounded like some scuffling maybe some moving around
There was a lot of screaming a lot of yelling, you know, the girl screaming leave me alone. Leave me alone, whatever whatever and
My wife even said to me, she's like this lady knows that she's recording herself
It's very easy for you to kind of act a bit more in the moment cuz you know you're recording
And at one point in the video, she told Larry I'm recording the whole thing
I mean if Larry was capable of punching her with closed fists as she said and
With him having such a big audience and being super famous and knowing that something like this could ruin his career
I mean not to sound like a bad person
but if I was Larry I'd take that phone and snap it in half and be like now you have no recording so
You know and also to in the video if he's hitting her with closed fists, and she's saying don't hit me. Don't hit me
I was waiting here like a you know, I mean, that's a that's me punching my hand very lightly
I was waiting to hear something like that of him actually putting hands on her. I didn't hear it
so
Clearly there was an issue and then there was like a text message in there of them talking to each other and she was talking
about how
He like dragged her out of bed and was choking her and all this other stuff
which could very well be true guys, but at the end of the day
It just sounds like a very volatile relationship where you're hearing one side of the story
You don't know what she did to instigate it or what he did to instigate you
Don't know if she hit him and he grabbed her to stop her or fight. Maybe he did just choke her out
I don't know
But all I'm saying is you know
We need to hear more of the evidence in the story and me personally just hearing somebody scream on a recording
Isn't enough to convince me that all this shit went down. Alright there. It just needs to be more evidence
around this and I'm coming from a place of
where
My wife and I as you guys know we've been dealing with a psycho stalker for like two years
We're currently you know
We still we have a open court case right now
In Miami Florida with this person and the only reason why it hasn't closed yet is because she fled the country to her home country
Of Argentina where she continues to relentlessly harass and stalk my wife and do all kinds of stuff
You guys can go to my wife's Channel Ericas Girly World to check it out and you can kind of see all the details of that
I don't want to get into it in this video, but the point of this is
This woman has managed to convince so many people of terrible things about my wife that are completely not true
And so it's really easy for me to kind of look at a situation like this and see you know
There could be some
manipulation happening because some of the things that people were saying about my wife saying she's a terrorist that a scammer and you know,
She does fashion blogging and they're saying that all her stuff is fake and you know
Oh, she sold me a fake bag
My wife doesn't sell bags like all this crazy stuff and it just snowballs and people believe it because
They just want to believe a juicy story and they want to talk about it. So
With Larry, I mean I just made a video talking about how he's a great guy like, oh, he seems like a really good dude
and it's like well
Maybe maybe he's not such a good dude but gonna have to wait for him to come out with his side of the story
But I feel like you guys really need to take a step back
Especially if you're young like you really need to take a step back and analyze all of the information. You know, with Shawn
Why was the bail reduced half a million dollars?
You know what
I mean and rape is a hard thing to prove and it almost seems like a lot of these women are coming out now
similar to how it was for the me too movement and
the me too movement as well was a little bullshit there and what I mean by that is if
Somebody is like hey if you want to be in this movie
All you gotta do is have sex with me and then you decide to have sex with them
That was your choice, you know like yeah, it sucks. Yeah, it's stupid
Yeah, it shouldn't happen but you had the opportunity to walk away from that, you know as you guys know
I used some model in New York
And I was trying to get into the entertainment industry and I've had Creep photographers and they're like hey
How bad do you want this Louie Vuitton job? I'm like, not that bad. See you later
That's why you guys never saw me in Louise Vuitton like yeah that shit happens
But at the end of the day you always have a choice, right? So what's really going on?
Are these women coming forward trying to take advantage?
I mean it seemed like their relationship was on the downfall and I mean there's a saying there's nothing
Scarier or more dangerous than a scorned woman like this saying exist for a reason and from that looks to me
She's feeling pretty scorned
So maybe this is her last ditch attempt to attack him and with the relationship being so volatile
basically since it started this might even be an underlying way of her like she still loves him
But she doesn't want to be with him, but she wants to do something like I don't know
like I said
I'm just looking from the outside in
but I'm looking at it from a different perspective
than from the majority of people who are just hearing this recording and I don't know guys like
Steroids are a hell of a drug
Okay, they make you do some crazy things
So whether or not you put hands on her or Jeremy put hands on this chick or Shawn
you know did some raping unfortunately the
Steroids involved could be a big part of that. Obviously. They alter how you act and how you feel
So that's why they're dangerous
You know, it's a choice you make and does everybody who does that everybody who competes act this way?
No, I don't think that we should start shaming the entire fitness community based on the actions of a few of these different people
but we have to start kind of like calling out facts for facts and truths for truth and there are
Things that can happen. What's the world looking for?
there are consequences to your actions based on what you're doing and drugs that you're taking and
unfortunately anger and you know, a heat-of-the-moment anger is one of those things that happens with steroid abuse, so
it's just a very touchy subject and like I said, I could be completely wrong and
Larry's ex-girlfriend could be a hundred percent truthful
I'm just saying I am gonna wait until more evidence comes out before I really start
crucifying people just because when I was younger
I used to just take things at face value
And that was that but now that I'm older and I've kind of been through some shit
Especially with my psycho stalker in Miami.
I can I kind of feel for people now. I guess what
I mean like to feel powerless in a situation like this is terrible and at the end of the day
Whether you're guilty or not as soon as somebody starts saying you raped me you beat me
that's gonna stay with you forever, you know, whether it's true or not.
I heard he beat his girlfriend and put her in a hospital and choked her out and stuff and those could all be false but
People don't tend to follow a story until the very end
They just follow all the juicy bits and then they move on to the next story and read all those juicy bits and then move
On to the next story. They never really stay for the conclusion
You usually don't find out what happens until somebody tells you because maybe three people decided to figure out what actually happened
So I don't want ramble too much. I just want to say you know what guys
There's a lot of crap happening in the fitness industry right now at this point being natty or not
Doesn't even matter the kind of person that you are is what's gonna matter and I feel like if you're gonna look up to somebody
You need to keep an open mind
You shouldn't just look up to somebody because they look great and they can lift a lot of weight like you need to have
Integrity and to be honest with you guys
That's why I never really got into sports when I was a kid
a lot of people ask me because I'm from Boston and they're like
Oh, you must be a Red Sox fan or you must you know, love the Patriots or the Celtics or whatever
I'm like honestly dude when I was young and all the other kids in school were so pumped talking about, you know
Who could throw the best football who was the best running back or who scored the most points in the basketball game
Even at a young age. I was like whoopee freaking do. You can throw a ball
Congratulations, Captain America can protect you know thirteen people at once
While carrying somebody injured on his back and deflecting bullets with his shield
Like there's some integrity right there somebody trying to protect you, but people now
Captain America might not be a real person but the morals and values he lives by are very relatable
Especially to me at that age. So
