Media TJ Dillashaw looking JACKED before UFC 280!

[Poatan Power]

I think he is.

he came back from inactivity before and he came back sharp.

Also his last performance against Sandhagen was good.

He got smoked. Aljo is gonna smesh.

 

[Vespasian70AD]

Solid Snake Stuff..... Tsssssssssss

SNAAAAAKE!

 

[CPH]

Long term gainzz.

 

[SeattleFightFan]

We know he's fit.

We also know that "before and after" shots are easy to manipulate. Just one example here.

And most importantly, we also know he's very good at making images, videos, etc that market himself.

In other words....shit, did I just spend a minute bothering with this crap???

 

[MigitAs]

All natty.

Doesn’t natty = Natural?

yea I know but epo is a cardio drug, it doesn’t have the same effect as steroids

Point taken
And everyone knows what he popped for
But honestly man , do you really think that was the one and only time he ever used a ped in his career .
Like I said I don’t like speculating on fighters ped use , but once they’ve been caught cheating part of the penalty they have to pay is that people will always question how much of their accomplishments are tainted and question if they are going to try to beat the system and cheat again

That’s all fair points but if you look at it TJ has extenuating circumstances in his case. He was cutting to a weight class he’d never made before and his body was shutting down, so he used EPO to make weight. Do I think he was using peds at any other point of his career? Well he’s never popped for steroids and his previous samples from past fights were retested for epo and came back negative. I don’t even really like TJ as a fighter, but his case for using epo is more understandable than any other fighter who’s popped for steroids/peds.

 

[Stagliano]

It’s so convenient that TJ has popped, otherwise we would be nonstop about aljo. the tallest, most muscular, most ripped guy in the division that uses pace/cardio as his biggest tool.

"Leave TJ alone let's talk about Aljo "

Aljo uses cardio as his biggest tool? I would say that's his biggest weakness.

 

[Bend NvR Break]

Seems he's back to hoping USADA isn't testing for what he's on

I wouldn't say cardio is his weakness. I would say he has trouble pacing himself.

 

[jeskola]

Shredded? Yes. Jacked?? Not really

what about Swole, Yoked, Ripped? Do you have a handy chart with pictures?

 

[Roberto Martinez Lopez]

YOU'RE TAKING EVERYTHING I WORK FOR MOTHERFUCKER

 

[Legendary]

Ripped Manlets are funny to see.

I think we might be moving towards TJ's decline. He looked good in his last fight, but he is 36 fighting at 135 and declines tend to be sudden.

About half of steroids (anabolics) don't promote muscle mass or conditioning. EPO is a PED (probably the most effective for mma) actually can contribute to conditioned physiques. Increasing red blood cells increases out put while limiting lactic acid build up. So he can train harder and longer

disagree that epo is the most effective ped for mma, but you know your stuff otherwise. I think he needed it to keep training while doing a dangerous cut to 125.

He did it because he wanted to maintain cardio output in a depleted state. It's cheating 101. Deplete himself to 125 while keeping all the physical capabilities he had at 135. He basically suped himself up to be a weight bully.

I would also say epo allowing cardio output while limiting lactic acid build up makes it exactly the best type of ped for mma. Not to mention it's role in ATK processes.

why did he need to keep a high cardio output while limiting lactic acid build up for one fight?
