Blood is rolling down the shins of Mitchell Hooper. The two-time World\u2019s Strongest Man has just deadlifted 475 kilograms \u2014 equivalent to a young hippo \u2014 and now he has a shot at the world record. As he steps up to the wooden stage, the crowd roars in anticipation. This could be it: the moment the 510-kilogram record is smashed. Bending down, Hooper clutches the bar. The glare of the spotlight glistens off his polished scalp, his shoulders swallowing his neck like a turtle withdrawing for cover. He lets out a final wheeze and pulls. His whole body seems to swell under the strain. History is in the making.<\/p>\n

The bar never leaves the ground. After three seconds of agonizing effort, Hooper releases it in defeat. He stands back, meekly waves to the crowd, and slinks out stage left. Even after a three-month regimen of heavy steroid and testosterone use, the synthetic support did not prove enough to get him over the line.<\/p>\n

For this was not an ordinary strongman competition. This was the inaugural Enhanced Games in Las Vegas \u2014 an Olympics-style spectacle with a distinctly un-Olympian twist: drugs, and lots of them.<\/p>\n

Testosterone, anabolic steroids, stimulants, metabolic modulators, and a pick \u2019n\u2019 mix bag of peptides were just some elements of the \u201cstacks\u201d that these athletes had been taking ahead of the Games. In any other sporting context, it would have resulted in an automatic disqualification and a lengthy (if not lifetime) ban. But at the Enhanced Games, it was almost a prerequisite for qualification.<\/p>\n

These competitors were, after all, sporting outcasts. They were rejects, drug cheats, and also-rans. Few had a pathway back into the disciplines they had spent their whole lives devoted to. Now, they had effectively sealed their fate by competing in a tournament that was widely dismissed as a \u201cclown show\u201d by the US Anti-Doping Agency and \u201cdangerous and irresponsible\u201d by WADA.<\/p>\n

With so many drugs involved, I made my first trip to Vegas expecting an event as riveting as it was uncomfortable: a Hunter S. Thompson sort of scene, but with steroids instead of psychedelics. I didn\u2019t plan on barrelling down the Strip with a fistful of mescaline and a quart of ether, but I had already been offered to go to a gun range by another attendee before the event had even begun. It was a promising start.<\/p>\n

Instead, the Games proved to be a more sterile affair. Like the athletes competing, the crowd appeared to be on their own strict protocol, with tech bros and YouTube influencers flexing their enhanced muscles on camera. Veins bulged out of muscles I did not know existed, and skin stretched across foreheads so tightly that eyebrows were rendered immobile. As I wandered around the makeshift arena, many were happy to share with me the details of their regimens, no doubt taking inspiration from anti-aging guru Bryan Johnson, who was commentating on the Games. One even offered to put me in touch with his \u201cpeptide guy\u201d, which I politely declined. As for Johnson, he delivered analysis while sheltering under a black parasol \u2014 all the better to prevent his skin from aging.<\/p>\n

Ironically, many in the stands looked more enhanced than the athletes themselves. Since his dramatic weight gain last year, the swimmer James Magnussen, a former 100-meter freestyle world champion, had shed the 20 kilograms he once carried. Perhaps to the disappointment of thrill-seeking spectators, he was one of many athletes to have retained the lean, familiar physiques of their former Olympic selves. The contestants were competing across three categories: swimming, sprinting, and weightlifting, with 42 competitors vying for a total prize pot of up to $25 million. $250,000 would be awarded to first-place finishers and bonuses of up to $1 million for \u201cbreaking\u201d world records.<\/p>\n

By the end of the evening, only one $1 million prize was handed out. The Greek swimmer \u00adKristian Gkolomeev swam 20.81 seconds in the men\u2019s 50-meter freestyle, 0.07 quicker than the world record \u2014 and 0.05 seconds faster than his previous record at an Enhanced Games-sponsored event in February 2025. It hardly represented the dawn of a new sporting era, but it was nevertheless heralded by Max Martin, the Enhanced Games CEO, as the moment \u201cwe changed the world\u201d.\u00a0 Martin knelt at Gkolomeev\u2019s feet in gratitude; the prize money, evidently, was well-spent.<\/p>\n

The millions of dollars in cash was certainly a powerful incentive for these athletes, but the event lacked the intensity of a conventional sporting competition. EDM music blared during races; sprinters were allowed to restart after false starts; and a weightlifter was granted an additional attempt in the snatch. Records or no records, athletes were applauded as if they were returning war heroes. By the end, I half-expected participation trophies to be handed out.<\/p>\n

At times, the Games felt more like an episode of Severance<\/i>: a sealed-off system observed from the outside, its participants acting according to rules that seemed both hidden and self-evident to them. At the end of each race, athletes were routinely asked how enhancement had changed their lives. The responses were uniformly effusive \u2014 gratitude directed at the organizers; praise for a newfound lease on life; and carefully rehearsed reflections on the transformative effects of the substances they had taken.<\/p>\n

This was, of course, the point. The Enhanced Games is a publicity stunt. The athletes are running, swimming, and lifting advertisements for the long list of the supplements, longevity treatments and specialized regimens promoted on the event\u2019s newly revamped website. But if they were meant to be an advert for a better, faster, stronger tomorrow, tonight\u2019s performances suggest there is some way to go.<\/p>\n

Critics have already dismissed the Games as a sideshow, but they are wrong to do so. If last night\u2019s competition revealed anything, it was the glimpse it provided into a future in which \u201cenhancement\u201d is no longer the exception, but the norm. With the use of performance-enhancing drugs on the rise, even as \u201clooksmaxxing\u201d becomes normalized, events like these are helping redraw assumptions about what constitutes a desirable or even normal body. As those boundaries shift, so too may the pressure for people to interfere with their bodies \u2014 chemically, medically and permanently \u2014 without fully reckoning with the risks.<\/p>\n

Enhanced had billed the competition as the beginning of a new era for elite sport \u2014 one in which pharmaceutical optimization would render old records obsolete, and bring human potential to new frontiers. Not only was a single world record broken, but three unenhanced athletes ended up winning their respective events. Ben Proud, the Olympic silver medalist and poster child for the Games, improved on his previous personal best, but missed out on the world record by just 0.05 seconds. His dejected look at the finish line made clear his disappointment.<\/p>\n

If these results were meant to serve as a rebuke to the old sporting system, the event was a failure. But they also pointed towards a deeper tension that lies at the heart of the organization. On the one hand, its founders present the Enhanced Games as a \u201cnew Apollo mission\u201d, testing the limits of human performance and pushing the boundaries of human potential. On the other hand, they argued that there was nothing altogether that different from what today\u2019s enhanced athletes are doing compared to previous generations. Promotional videos invoked the Ancient Greeks, who supposedly used figs, mushrooms and plant seeds to sharpen performance, or the runners of the early-20th century who turned to stimulants and tonics in pursuit of an edge.<\/p>\n

It does not take a scientist, however, to understand that there is a difference between eating a fig and injecting EPO (erythropoietin), a hormone which is designed to increase red-blood-cell count, but can also raise the risk of stroke, heart attack, pulmonary embolism, blood clots and sudden cardiac death. While Enhanced athletes underwent medical supervision in the months leading up to competition, the long-term consequences of sustained pharmacological enhancement remain poorly understood. That uncertainty raises a broader question: what happens when these protocols \u2014 or simplified, mass-market versions of them \u2014 move beyond tightly controlled experimental settings into a wider, commercially accessible market?<\/p>\n

The rise of the \u201clooksmaxxing\u201d community offers some clues. Though Enhanced\u2019s founders reject any direct comparison with influencers such as Clavicular, there are notable overlaps: in both cases, the body is subjected to pharmaceutical intervention in pursuit of an aesthetic goal. The language may differ \u2014 performance versus appearance, sport versus self-image \u2014 but the underlying logic is not. Besides, most of Enhanced\u2019s customers will be less fussed about beating world records than looking good in the mirror, which they can do with testosterone injections for $169 a month, low-dose tadalafil for $80 a month, or semaglutide for $179 a month.<\/p>\n

Enhanced\u2019s co-founder Christian Angermayer has himself acknowledged that vanity is no bad thing. He argues that the pursuit of enhancement does need not be morally distinguished by its motivation: whether driven by vanity, ambition or competitiveness, it forms part of a single continuum of biomedical self-optimization. Notably, he sees these Games as a node in a broader cultural campaign to make pharmacological enhancement socially acceptable, arguing that medicine is too narrowly focused on treating illness rather than improving healthy people.<\/p>\n

Yet what is most revealing is where he draws his inspiration from: the trans movement. Writing in 2024, he argued that the broader freedoms won through struggles over gender identity would eventually extend to the right to \u201cshape and enhance one\u2019s own body and mind according to individual desires and aspirations\u201d. In his telling, enhancement is not simply a sporting or medical question but a libertarian one \u2014 part of a wider rejection of fixed ideas about what constitutes a \u201cnormal\u201d body.<\/p>\n

It is a revealing analogy. The debate around transgender athletes exposed how fraught questions around hormones, bodily autonomy and fairness in sport can be. In 2022, the 6\u20191\u201d trans swimmer Lia Thomas won a National Collegiate Athletic Association women\u2019s freestyle title in 2022; the sight of her on the podium alongside smaller female competitors became a lightning rod for public unease about where inclusion ends and competitive advantage begins. James Magnussen\u2019s own transformation \u2014 after putting on 20 kilos through pharmaceutical enhancement \u2014 provoked a different but related reaction. His enlarged physique, with lats spilling out of his swimsuit, looked disturbingly unnatural, looking more like that of a WWE wrestler than an Olympic athlete.<\/p>\n

Perhaps this is part of the appeal. People came to the inaugural Games expecting to see mutants; this time around, mutants were not forthcoming. But as more and more people develop their own regimen at home, that boundary may begin to blur. As for the Games itself, the format will almost certainly return, iterate, expand. And once athletes have crossed the line into enhancement, there is no obvious way back to the old rules without cost \u2014 physiological, competitive, or reputational. In that sense, what happens in Vegas rarely stays in Vegas.<\/p>\n
