Gordon Ryan doubles down on his steroid defense and suggests a certain jiu-jitsu "family" has been using performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs) for over 50 years.
The article from MSN Sports discusses the phenomenon of "Juice Jitsu," a term coined for the use of performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs) in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ). It highlights the case of Roid N. Ryan, a BJJ competitor who has openly admitted to using steroids, claiming it's a common practice within the sport, often kept under wraps. The piece explores how PED use has become somewhat of a family affair, with multiple family members involved in both the use and distribution of these substances. It delves into the ethical, health, and competitive implications of steroid use in BJJ, noting that while some view it as cheating, others see it as a necessary evil to remain competitive at the highest levels. The article also touches on the lack of stringent testing in many BJJ competitions, which allows for this culture to persist, and discusses the potential long-term effects on the sport's integrity and the health of its athletes.
