Russian bodybuilder Kiril Tereshin who injected his ‘Popeye’ arms with oil has now had silicone implants put in his legs
The 21-year-old, from Pyatigorsk in south western Russia, is trying to break bodybuilding records by injecting himself with synthol despite the risk of his insanely bulging arms bursting - and now he's at it with his legs
A RUSSIAN bodybuilder who injected dangerous chemical into his arms to create Popeye-like biceps has now had silicon implanted into his calves.
Kirill Tereshin, 21, from the city of Pyatigorsk in south western Russia’s Stavrolol Krai region, says he wanted to make his leg muscles look like “rockets”.
The former soldier rose to notoriety after he started injecting synthol into his biceps to develop massive muscles – avoiding the bother of working out.
But cosmetic surgeons reportedly only agreed to carry out surgery to put the silicone implants into his calves after he promised not to inject synthol into his legs.
Sharing a photo of his “new” legs on social media, Tereshin bragged: “I will make my calves look like my arms.
“My nuclear weapon will be the most powerful and big.”
Tereshin has been criticised by health experts after he developed huge 24 inch biceps by injecting site enhancement oil, commonly known as synthol, into his guns.
And despite the danger of his arms bursting, he plans to continue with his risky regime.
He is also now working out and hopes to one day break bodybuilding records.
But doctors warn synthol can cause pulmonary embolisms, nerve damage, infections, sclerosing lipogranuloma, stroke and oil-filled cysts or ulcers in the muscle.
