What is this urge for the country to be uniformly fit? You know the last time I remember that happening was Germany in the mid to late '30s, and that didn't work out too well, did it? Come on, to me, fat guys are the chirping canary in the mineshaft of freedom.

 

[georgie24]

AS old as that is he was probably considered a VERY large man back then...

Ive read that he secretly used 2 products that were identical to celltech and nitrotech though, identical, and as we all know, thats pretty much all you need to build the ideal male specimen.

In that case, its a wonder that them scientists even bothered with inventing steroids later on, I mean we all know that nitrotech is about 5 billion times more anabolic than testosterone.



I think his legs are not impressive because he didn't have access to one of them Tony Little Gazelles.
