Health issues prevent Denis Cyplenkov from competing in armwrestling for now

In the latest video uploaded by Body Mania, Denis Cyplenkov's health problems are discussed, raising concerns about his ability to compete. Denis's bloodwork shows elevated growth hormone levels, even though he claims he hasn't used exogenous growth hormone in over a year. This has led to a suspicion of a pituitary tumor (specifically, a somatotropinoma), which can cause excessive growth hormone production. Further tests, including an MRI and glucose tolerance test, are being conducted to confirm the diagnosis. Denis is also experiencing high blood pressure, joint problems, an enlarged thyroid gland, and an elevated resting heart rate of 100 bpm. The enlarged thyroid is physically less apparent due to Denis's substantial neck musculature. Concern is expressed regarding Denis’s health, especially considering his age (43 years). It is emphasized that these health issues are the reason he has not been able to resume consistent training. Denis has been advised not to train with anabolic steroids, as they could exacerbate his thyroid condition. He's also been told to avoid intense training generally due to his high resting heart rate. He will undergo treatment for his thyroid, and a follow-up assessment in three months will determine whether he can resume training. Denis has stated that he will prioritize his health and is not rushing back to competition until he is cleared.
