Ever punctual, it took the popular coach just one day to respond.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIs it me or does he look bigger?\u201d asked one IG user after seeing the first post, where Goggins is wearing a grey tank top and looks pumped. \u201cGoggins on the sauce,\u201d responded another. \u201cY\u2019all think Goggins is on TRT?,\u201d asked yet another. Those questions around steroids and testosterone replacement therapy did not go unnoticed by the man himself, who took to his IG account to put the record straight.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, I put a video up yesterday,\u201d said Goggins in a new video while performing cable triceps pulldowns. \u201cAnd all the comments were about \u2018God, is he on TRT?\u2019 I understand this is the generation of steroids, TRT. A lot of you don\u2019t know about hard work, dedication, and nutrition, see a lot of you don\u2019t know who I am. I do these things to test my mind, what I\u2019m capable of. Not what drugs are capable of. So, I\u2019ve been 185 (pounds) about fifteen years. Butt naked, 185. With clothes on, 188-191, 190, around there, so you guys say did I gain fifteen, twenty pounds of jack, let\u2019s test out your theory.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>David Goggins Steps on the Scales to Prove a Stable Weight<\/h2>\n<p>Stepping on the scales with clothes and sneakers on, the reading settled at 190.4 pounds. \u201cWell, there you go,\u201d concluded Goggins. \u201cI\u2019ve gained no weight, but y\u2019all still say something because that\u2019s the generation you\u2019re from. You\u2019re from the, um, \u2018take it easy\u2019 route.\u201d Still, Goggins was not discounting other people\u2019s appropriate use of TRT. \u201c\u2026 people are on TRT because they need to be on it for different reasons,\u201d he explained. \u201cBut some of you young kids out there who are doing the comment(s), don\u2019t know s*it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Of course, this being social media, the comments for his response video were awash with both supporters and those who now want him to take a blood test to prove his words, but in true Chuck Norris style, one follower wrote the wittiest contribution: \u201cTestosterone goes to the doctor to get it\u2019s David Goggins levels checked.\u201d And that\u2019s enough social media for today!<\/p>\n<p><strong> Follow David Goggins on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/davidgoggins\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3711241968723425\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.muscleandfitness.com\/features\/feature-news\/david-goggins-responds-to-performance-enhancing-drugs-claims\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When David Goggins took to Instagram on October 10 to share a motivational post about being accountable for your friend\u2019s fitness levels, his Instagram account was besieged with questions that stemmed from the fact that many of his followers thought that he was looking much more muscular, leading some to even question whether he was &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11506","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-fitness"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/loudhdtv.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11506","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/loudhdtv.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/loudhdtv.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/loudhdtv.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/loudhdtv.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=11506"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/loudhdtv.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11506\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/loudhdtv.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=11506"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/loudhdtv.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=11506"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/loudhdtv.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=11506"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
