How My American Dream Became Reality
By George Touliatos, MD
Steve Blechman is the owner of Muscular Development and the President/CEO and founder of Advanced Research Media. He used to be owner of the TWINLAB brand, the finest supplement products in the ‘90s. I fondly remember the glass bottles, something pioneering back then. Muscular Development magazine is the last castle standing in a digital world, where all print media collapsed. I have been a fanatic reader for over two decades. MD is the only network that covers all social media: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, forums, and the magazine. With Steve, there is a relationship of mutual respect. He believed in my potential and gave me a tremendous opportunity of a lifetime. I was able to express myself about any topic such as chemical enhancement, nutrition, supplementation, and medicine. I literally entered the American fitness culture in homes, gyms, supplement stores, and even prison camps. As a matter of fact, I received two letters from jails around the USA, due to the exposure of the magazine to prisons. Being part of the MD family made me proud because of the global acknowledgement. My 50+ monthly columns are covering the walls of my office and I’m proud to say that I’m running to 220 straight weekly episodes with Ron Harris on “The Ronline Report” on //www.youtube.com/@MuscularDevelopmentMedia" >Muscular Development’s YouTube channel, and I’m the only European physician with this milestone.
Steve and I met three times. The first one was at the 2019 Olympia when Ron Harris introduced me to him. Until then, I had online communication with Mr. Blechman. We took a photograph in the lobby of the Orleans Hotel. Later we had breakfast, where we had a comprehensive discussion about diet, supplements, and medicine implementation. He was really impressed by my depth of knowledge. This was quite a compliment from a man of his status.
The second time Steve and I met was at the 2020 Arnold, at the meet-and-greet, and then we sat next to each other at the pre-judging and finals. Steve promised me that he would join us with Ron on my 100th anniversary of episodes. We also took a photo at the finals. When Steve appeared on the 100th episode, I felt very proud. He was barely giving interviews until then. He kept his promise and emphasized that nowadays you rarely see authorized material coming from a medical doctor about bodybuilding. He liked that dual identity; competitive bodybuilder and practicing physician. Steve wished me another 100 episodes and thanked me for everything I had contributed to the magazine, the online edition and YouTube channel.

A few months later, Steve offered me a five-page editorial in the magazine. Ron Harris did the interview, and my good friend George Papacharalambous offered me a pro bono photo shoot in his studio and at the beach. It felt really extraordinary having this exposure.
Our third meeting was at the 2022 Olympia. We met at the meet-and-greet. Later, we sat next to each other at the finals with Rick Collins as well and we took a picture. Steve wanted to thank me once more for my four years of contribution. He offered me a seven-page editorial and an inset photo on the cover of the magazine. The interview was by Ron Harris, while the photography was by the legendary Per Bernal in his studio and at the historic Gold’s Gym in Venice. It was epic and monumental … a dream that became reality. I was getting massive international attention. Steve fulfilled my American dream. I consider him a valuable asset and am proud to call Steve a friend.
