Banged up: Brett Wiltshire will be behind bars for two years for supplying anabolic steroids
A fitness fanatic was caught by police running a large-scale commercial operation making and distributing steroids.
Brett Wiltshire, who was one of the first people to be convicted of revenge porn, admitted 11 offences around the supply anabolic steroids-a Class C drug.
In the last tax year alone, the 40-year-old earned £123,000 from his operation, which was being run form his flat in Maidstone, Kent.
Jailing him for two years on Friday, Recorder David Jeremy QC said: 'The volume of what was going on was enormous. This is large scale commercial supply.'
Prosecutor Mary Jacobson said there were vials containing a mixture of fluid, presses for making pills, labels and airmail packaging.
On the day of the raid there were 660 millilitres of steroids in liquid form, 102.1 grams in powder form and 2,929 tablets with a Superman logo, all worth just under £5,000, Maidstone Crown Court heard.
Ms Jacobson said: 'This was simply a snapshot of what was found on the day.'
Muscular Wiltshire, who also supplied gym members and had links with a kickboxing club, boasted of making the operation the 'number one lab'.
He had many texts on his phone relating to buying and selling the drug.
One spoke of the production having to be 'ramped up'.

Wiltshire at Maidstone Magistrate's court on Friday before his sentencing. He became one of the first in the country to be convicted of distributing revenge porn earlier in the year
Wiltshire in January became one of the first in the country to be convicted of distributing revenge porn, which he blamed on his steroid use.
He admitted sending explicit photographs of his ex-girlfriend to friends on Facebook and was ordered by magistrates to do 200 hours unpaid work.
Keith Yardy, defending, said in the latest case: 'I asked how much he thought he made from this enterprise and he estimated £400 to £500.'
Wiltshire had been in the motor trade for 20 years, he said, and received a payout for an accident at work.
But Recorder David Jeremy QC said: 'It is pretty obvious on the Crown's case this is a large scale commercial operation.
'This paints a different picture to the one you are submitting.
'On the face of it you are inviting me to treat him as a small street dealer.'
The judge added: He is the last person who should be around a gym or kickboxing.

'If they knew he was aspiring to develop the biggest illicit lab for drugs, they would not want him anywhere near the gym.'
Mr Yardy said the drugs were used by people who made a lifestyle choice to enhance performance.
Recorder Jeremy said texts on Wiltshire's phone demonstrated that dealing in steroids was his job, and he talked of making £10,000 in a day.
He also spoke of stashing money at his mother's home and loaning cash for extra income.
Recorder Jeremy added: 'What was found in your flat was a snapshot.
'In reality, the volume and sophistication of your operation takes you outside the sentencing guidelines.
'You were taking advantage of that in order to make money. You only have to think about it for a moment to see how serious it is.
