Arnold a hypocrit too!!

[bigp3]

I dont know if any of you heard this but arnold said he was going to use his new power as the editor and cheif of FLEX and M&F to put pressure on the IFBB to ban steroid use. He said that he was going to use his new position to discourage steroid use completely. Now this is the most hypocritical thing I have ever heard. God knows he had to be on something get back in the shape he did for T-3. I know he is just covering his political stake, but it still makes me feel betrayed.

I think thats fantastic. It's gone too far with the pro's. Enough with these near dead bloated blobs. Johm Grimeck, Steve Reeves, Reg Park (early in his career), Clancy Ross, etc didn't need steroids to look great. They were real role models that you could look up to.

Of course going back to those times would be too far of a stretch after what we've seen. But maybe it will get them to stop awarding the biggest (which isn't always the best these days), and get some guys who look great like Dexter, a shot at the O.

I think it's wrong for him to say he wants to help have them banned, but maybe he should try to get them to cut down a bit. It would be great to see guys who looked like Sergio, Arnold, Zane, etc up on stage and winning.

hey Bigp3...what would you do in his position???.. Not so easy to answer...

 

[bigp3]

all those guys you talked about back in the day were loaded to the hilt too. They just did not have the knowledge that the guys today have. I think that has more to do with the physique changes than the drugs, although they are a big part of it.

My whole point on this was Arnold should not be casting stones when he has been a lifetime user.

Steve Reeves was loaded to the hilt? WOW news to me. You do know he built all of his mass in the late 30's and early 40's. His last show was in 1950. I don't recall even protein powder being availible back then. Nice try bro, but not good enough

They will start using custom taylored roids with a short half life instead, like all the olympians. Sure Arnold is saying what is good for his political career now that he is out of the BB game. He changed his stance on roids in his BB encyclopedia as well.

I am not saying reeves was, that is an obvious one. But arnold, sergio and all those guys from the 60's and 70's were.

I understand that arnold is stuck between a rock and a hard place with his political agenda now. I was just hoping he would have some balls and stand up for the rest of us.

Actually weight lifters back then were using a crude form of test. But strictly for strength. It did nothing for bodybuilding purposes. It made you VERY bloated, extremely enlarged testicles were the norm, and balding was almost for sure. Other than that, there was no d-bols, primos or any other things. I don't recall Steve, or John being bald with an over the top bloated look...

 

[c3bodybuilding]

Oh, of course Arnold, Serge etc were on. Thats why I think maybe Arnold should put pressure on them to calm it down a bit. Then maybe we would see guys like that again. I think we read both our posts wrong.
