What exactly do you mean by juice? I'm guessing not the fruit/Veg kind...

"Juice" or "being juiced" is a pretty common term for any kind of steroids or performance enhancing substances.

See for example: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juiced:_Wild_Times,_Rampant_%27...

I believe his use of 'juice' comes from the sports world and how they refer to the use of performance enhancing substances as 'juicing'.
