I've heard that before, but what does it mean?

Natan Sharansky according to his book was well fed for a few months prior to being released as well, trying to hide the mistreatment that he experienced.

And unable to lift his arms above shoulder height for the rest of his life due to the torture that he suffered through.

Jackass.
