Citrus...we had a couple guys come into Gold's one day and these fuckers were enormous. One guy was probably 6'2 and 350. They were hack squatting a fully loaded sled off of their ankles. This was after loading the leg press up with as much weight as it could hold and doing multiple sets.

The bigger of the two had pretty good shape. Probably because he was tall enough to support the weight. I've worked out next to Shari Kamali a bunch of times prior to his turning pro, I guess, and he was pretty freakish too, but the shorter guys don't hold the mass as shapely as the taller dudes do.

Bigorexia...ha...I remember taking a survey they passed out at Golds...think it was some shit pimping for a weightloss company. For ideal weight I listed "240." "Do you feel that food and eating rules your life?" "Yes." Current bodyweight "185"...I'm sure I gave somebody down there a heart attack. I'm still holding out for Star Trek technology, though; I ain't got the frame to support 240 lbs. Hell, when I was at 200, my knees hurt from walking. I waddled so much that a business partner of mine asked me if I had gout.

I. When the GH gut is going on, there is nothing that can be in proportion to that. When Ronnie Coleman hits an ab pose next to a Dexter Jackson, the abs on Ronnie are horrible and usually covered by more fat as well as protruding more. To have 23 in arms, 50 in chests are great but only if you can have a 30 in waist give or take an inch. If you have the arms, chest, legs whatever but then have a 38 in waist when in competition form, that is disgusting and there is no need for that. And this is the reason why bodybuilders like Ronnie should be penalized due to their huge guts, when this guy does a lat spread his back is huge, but if you look at him from the side his gut sticks out farther than his chest (much farther).

I totally agree and penalizing gh guts (and synthol) is a very easy thing to do.
The biggest bbers might then be 10 or 15lbs lighter but would certainly look much better.
Imagine guys like 91' gary strydom, just a little bigger...

hehehehehehe!

um excuse me but

i like bodybuilding and i like freaks

and the mens health pussys that cant cut it and cant train hard enough had better stick to natural bodybuilding(and thats not even natural) but its the closest thing to the old school.

iv read manny of thies articals and i see truths in them

but they always make pros out to be

dick sucking

grossly out of shape

drug dealers

that sell crack to kids to buy steriods


i dis agree

i know a few pros personaly

and a bunch of national competitors



and none of them suck dick or sell crack

they do loose breath in offseason

as do i when im not doing any cardio and i weigh 265

this is grossly exagerated



and the funny thing is

the "prostitution" started with the old school

arnold wasnt living with the wieder brothers for free.......

they paid his way over here

ben wieder is a faggot and has been fucking pros since the 70s

mensor was with ben too


but dont believe this.

most of the time thies are set out to acually discourage
competitors imo

the less guys at the olympia the better


im not saying its false

im only saying its exagerated



and i plan on being on that stage some time soon

I was sitting at home Saturday night (the night of the Olympia) and noticed that they had it on pay per view. I decided to order it... what the hell. I figured it would really inspire me to start pounding the weights a little harder and watching the diet more closely. It did the exact opposite. I wanted to abandon the sport after watching this spectacle.



Bodybuilding is dead for sure...

same here, same with reading bbing magazines

 

[Quadsweep]

I doubt competitive bodybuilding is dead to the people who are busting their ass competing.

Thats exactly right. Bodybuilding is alive and well. It is actually better than it has been for about the last 5 years.

The article is harsh but true. If the thing about prostitution is true, that is fucking SICK.

I wonder what competitive bodybuilders think when they read something like this...

And, I would rather have Frank Zane's (or Mentzer's) body rather than anyone else who showed up in the 80s and after.

I was asked all the time when I was a teenage BB. Big money it seems.

First of all, who works out thinking about what women are going to think? If you do, then you don't need to be on an anabolics website. You don't need steroids at all to get girls.

And secondly, if everyone on here is so fed up with bodybuilding, then go golf or something. If you don't want to look abnormal, and fit in with the average Joe, this would be a good sport for you...not bodybuilding.

I say train hard, eat big, be big...if people don't like it, fuck 'em.

You guys who dont want to look like ronnie dont need to worry. sounds like the idiots at my gym, "I dont want to get too big", yea right, like you have the 24/7 dedication it takes to even be half way too big. I dont care what other people want or think looks good, Im tired of girls saying I look good! I want them to say " eeeew gross how can he even walk, look at all those gross veins". Thats when I know im getting close, been hearing it more and more lately. A walking freak show thats what I want and have the dedication to acheive it. It wont happen by accident and it wont happen overnight, so dont worry guys. Your not going to wake up one morning and say "damn Im just too big!"

i'd love to get HUGE. i bust my ass for it. but i also want to stay healthy enough after that for my own good. so that will always limit me. i don't care what the general public thinks abt the way i look either. but at the end of the day i want pussy not male ass. so if u don't care abt what the chicks think i can only hope for ur sake that ur gay. not trying to flame u- just my .02.

slobber- agreed abt the other sports. but the difference between those other sports and BB is that for many folks believe BB is not necessarily abt the limits of the human body to get big but alot to do with aesthetics. GH guts and synthol-bloated "muscles" are not aesthetically appealing to anyone.

i believe the prostitution thing starts with the judges- isn't that right?
