Lou Ferrigno on Stern

I don't know who here listens to Howard Stern in the Morning, but yesterday Lou Ferrigno called in to promote an Incredible Hulk Cruise.... Anyway, after talking about the cruise for a bit, and Howard teasing him cause he's half deaf, Stern brought up the topic of Steriod use.... He said to Lou, "Isn't that True? All the top BB's take the juice to get that big right?" Lou was caught off guard, and stumbled his words a bit.... Then Stern asked him "Isn't that how guys like Arnold and you got so huge back in the 70's? Ferrigno replied "I have only tried steroids once, and that was under a doctors care." He then added "I really didn't like it"....

Isn't it a shame that Icons like Ferrigno and Arnold still won't admit using steroids in their life? Even fucking baseball players can admit using juice, but not fucking BB's? What the fuck is going on in this world? Do pros like Ferrigno and Arnold really think that people believe you can get that big and ripped Naturally? Almost every fucking country in the world, steroids are legal, or legal to a degree, and Pros are still afraid to admit using juice.... Sorry for the rant, but it gets me pissy when I think of it.....

bush admits to coke, and pot? the only reason they dont admit it is its illegal, they dont wanna go to jail probably... thats why i wouldnt, im not to ashamed to admit it.. it kinda seems they are though...
 
Arnold has openly admitted it several times. It's no secret. He's against it now of course since he's our governor... :rolleyes:
 
I have never heard Arnold admit using juice, but I guess youre right.... I know in his Encyclopedia to Modern BB'ing he doesn't admit to using.... He has a chapter about the use of steriods, but not once admits that he loved Dbol and Primobolan stacks.... I have heard that Arnold would take a handfull of the pink pretties pre workout, then after 30mins would say... I am ready.... Who knows what's real and what isn't... I just wish these guys would say "Yes i have used Anabolic Steroids in the past, and no they aren't harmful if you do them in moderate dosages....

exactly, now that he is in office and wants to run again he will not speak of it, he used to say that dbol was the breakfast of champions. he also said that he ate them like tic tacs. arnold now will just say that he did everything under a doctor's supervision and wouldn't have put himself at risk. lou is just covering his ass, he doesn't have the millions arnie does.
 
I think they do it for fear of losing money somewhere because of it. If I were in there shoes I would do the same thing. Steroid use is looked down on so much by the people who know nothing about it. They don't admit to it because the people that hate it so much (over %95 of population) would make them out to be drug addicts. Yes its true. It would be great if someone like them would admit to it and educate the public, for that matter even the government that puts steroids in the same class as coke and heroin. I just don't see that ever happening.
 
I heard and saw Arnold admit to taking steroids in person at the Arnold classic this past year. At the training seminar a fifth grader stood up and asked a question about steriods that her class came up with. She asked something like why did you take steriods if you knew they were illegal and unhealthy. Arnold's reply was that when he took steroids they were not illegal and they did not know about the health risks back them like we do know. He said steriods where like creatine, only positive effects came from taking them but now he is against them.
 
I would tend to believe Lou over arnold anyday. BTW Lou looks more healthy now than almost all of the guys his age that were his peers making it more believable.
 
Heh, do these guys think that people are that stupid?? Yeah, the hulk was all natural, imagine how big he would be if he was on steroids :p !! You think with all the steroid headlines these days, they would expose the BB'ing world more.
 
if you watch pumping iron you can see lou as a young man, he was just one of those man childs who was a beast. take hulk hogan for example, yes he did roids, but as a 16 year old he was 6 8 250 at 18 he was near 275, at his peak hogan had 24 inch arms and was over 300 pounds. louie was gonna look like a specimen no matter what but i tend to think he probably used a bit. still he was naturally huge and his training was insanely intense, as well as his eating habits. in pumping iron they put down food by the pound and workout as intense as a monday night football game
 
Fuggin' juice-heads......

Lou Ferrigno in 2003 with Stan Lee at the premiere of the Incredible Hulk movie. Most recent picture I could find. He's still in great shape for his age.

 
Watch Pumping Iron - the 25th Anniversary edition and in the extras there is an interview with Arnold where he admits to using. He says that back then they were not illegal and they would do anything to get bigger and they didn't know what they do now about the side effects, yada yada.

He has been quoted many times saying that Dianabol is the breakfast of champions.

That's total BS Lou saying he only used them once. How stupid does he think we are? You don't look like that without AAS. We all know that. In Pumping the 25th anniversary edition Arnold admits to it in the interviews.
 
I'd rather be called a liar than a steroid using felon by my own admission-especially if I was a celeb.

As far as Louie goes, he's no tower of wit by any means. I met him at a BB show about 10 yrs ago. For $20 you got to shake his hand and received an autographed pic. He must not be very socially literate since any questions you had for him had to be asked through his manager sitting next to him first. Then his reply was always a very impersonal yes or no with a fake smile on his face. It's pretty sad when you see a bodybuilding icon like him still working after all of these years. Any other pro athlete would be financially set for life and retired by now.

mak i definitely am agreeing with you, i'm just saying louie could get away with some light cycles and look that way, which in this discussion is not pertinent. yes he was on lots of gas i agree. and yes ive heard all different quotes from arnie as i mentioned. gotta admit though louie is a fucking specimen with that back
 
I'm not sure why Arnold goes ahead and admits using. I'm positive that pressure exists for bodybuilders or any athlete to keep their mouth shuts. I'm sure they are heavily influenced by the government, endorcers, etc. to be quiet.

There would be no market for those stupid products that people buy to get huge . If they credit their gains to steroids, then they would be no billion dollar supplement market, people would simply go straight to the juice. They would no longer think they're a chance they can look like priest with Cell-Tech.

Or maybe, the bodybuilders/athletes think with the influence they have, by condoning use, a lot of people could hurt themselves if they get the ipressions that steroids aren't bad.

Another reason why I think they are pressured to keep their mouths shut are b/c of the government. The government has the attitude that they are right about everything and no one should question them. Just think of what would happen if someone like a bodybuilder publicly comes out and says hey, steroids aren't bad, i've juiced and I'm fine.

The American policies do not recognize the concept of moderation. We can say that yeah juice is okay in moderate doses, but so are a million other things that okay for yah in moderate doses. The government choses to treat us like idiots and doesn't think we know what moderation is. Hence this is why they are illegal in the first place along with drugs, etc.
 
I agree with Sparetire..... Lou has to be still using juice to maintain that size and BF%.... Unless he's doing GH long term, but still his biceps look pretty fucking solid in that pic.... I doubt they can look that dense without some type of androgen..... Not to mention.... Arnold in Terminator 3 was rumored to be taking steroids again, I dont' find that hard to believe.... As you get older, size and low BF% gets harder and harder to achieve... And with his vast history with juice, it's not a long stretch to see him going back to it.... I'm sure he took a plane ride to South Africa and called up some old Docs that used to supply him in the 70's, and presto.... He's rdy to film T3....

You're so right about the suppliment thing. It's amazing how many idiots buy into the idea of suppliment magic. I was talking to a friend of mine the other night, and made a comment about some dude on tv that I thought needed to slow down with the roids cause he looked like a damn freak. My friend had no clue... he was like, "how do you know he's doing roids?" I tried to explain to him that you cant get that big without gear, but he didnt want to believe it. He thinks you can look like a pro bodybuilder by just working out a lot and taking a bunch of protein and cell tech :rolleyes: . And I bet there are millions of other people who are being brainwashed by the suppliment companies. It's amazing the money these guys make by selling a $50 lie in a bottle.
 
ive had this conversation with so many people. i'll comment that guy is on gas and they'll say how do you know, there is a clear difference in my eyes between steroid muscles and regular ones once youve passed your genetic limit
 
I don't know any 50 somthing year olds that look like Lou. I still see him at Gold's Venice. The guy is jacked. Lean and vasuclar.
 
I met Lou at Arnold Classic. HUGE ASSHOLE. Hey Lou, The Hulk TV series sucked. Let it go. This guy has beenn hanging on to doing this pathetic tv show forever. Why would you even want to remember something that ruined your BB career? Even at the Arnold he was trying to promote his book about his life as the Incredible Hulk. I think the guy needs help.
 
i would have said the same thing. it's like someone who has a drinking problem should never admit to anyone that he or she is an alcoholic. it could be used against you later.

Steroids are illegal, yet cigarettes are legal. At least when someone uses roids, I don't have a chance of getting cancer by being around them. If someone wants to put something in their body, then who the fuck is the government to tell them they can't??
 
Don't you guys forget that in Pumping Iron Arnold celebrates his Mr O victory by smoking a joint-which was quite illegal back then-even when roids weren't. He even inhaled!!! That makes him just as much of a felon then as using roids is now-yet enough people were willing to overlook this to make him governor of Cali. That's almost as ridiculous as Marion Berry smoking crack with a hooker on video and still getting re-elected-almost!!!!

That's what the Libertarian Party is all about. If some one wants to drive a nail through their head then they have the right to do it regardless if everyone thinks it is crazy. Government is too involved in our personal lives :evil: .

You really can't blame Lou for denying it. How many guys on these boards would admit to it? I wouldn't. Nobody's business but mine.

I'm 100% natural and I've never used a performance enhancing drug. However I eat Prozac and Viagra like they're popcorn, I smoke 3 packs of Camel-no filters a day, and I drink 3-4 cases of beer a week, and McDonalds 1/4 pounder w/cheese is the main staple of my diet. All of which is legal and socially acceptable.

Those roid guys have one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel though. There should be legislation to revoke juicer's driver's licenses since an impending heart attack or stroke while driving may cause them to careen into the oncoming lane killing innocent victims. I'm emailing Senator John Mcain right now.

aw I love good oh louie. his child hood was fucked. the TV show did not ruin his body builindg carrer body building has been a part of every thing he has done. no body building no carrer. You siad he still has to work? There is not real signs to louie's roid use till his comeback when he was in his 40's now at this time the man was on some shit.
 
I really like Lou too.... Always thought he never had his chance to shine since Arnold was around when he was in his prime..... Arnold got all his buddies in the spot light back then, but Arnold never liked Lou.... I think Arnold saw Lou as serious competition back then, and put him down as much as he could.... He used to tease Lou, and talk shit about how stupid he is.... But then again, everyone knew that Arnold was a dick back then, not to mention cocky as hell...

Arnie had to admit to some use. The last thing he'd want is a sleaze investigation launched to expose his use and tarnish his political rep.

He admits to some use, points out it was legal at the time, he had a doctor's advice, yadda, yadda, and he has just diffused any possible scandal.
 
of course Louie denies using steroids, if he admits it - what do think would happen to sales of the california protein (or whatever teh fuck its called) stuff he sells?
But looking at him, at that age, I would assume that he is on heavy testosterone supplementation.

I guess bodybuilders (with the exception of one retiring/close to retiring dude here and there) will never admit to use roids, cause it would ruin the supplement myth - and for many supps are probably their only serious source of income...

Legislation is there to protect you because you are too stupid to make your own choices. Plus big guys like you used to flush the Senators head down the toilet in Junior high and steal his lunch money. Payback is a bitch.

Of course lou lied, anyone would have done the same in his position if they had a + room temperature IQ :)

he admited it years ago or i should say he never denied it. He was to bold had no fear. he admited it to barbra walters.

To Barbara Walters, in 1974 at the height of his bodybuilding career: "I take steroids because they help me an extra 5 percent. Women take the (contraception) pill. They are somewhat similar. I do it under a doctor's supervision."

i dont think he was worried about his political rep


In the mail-order pamphlet "Arnold: Developing a Mr. Universe Physique," 1977: "Yes I have used them, but no, they didn't make me what I am. Anabolic steroids were helpful to me in maintaining muscle size while on a strict diet in preparation for a contest."


To Playboy, 1987: "I don't worry about it, because I never took an overdosage."

To USA Today, 1990, shortly after he was named chairman of the President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports: "It was new then. There were no laws against it. I experimented with it. I'm instinctive. I felt right away it was not a real thing. I felt something in my system didn't belong there. I quit."


To U.S. News & World Report, 1992: "In those days you didn't have to deal with the black market. You could go to your physician and just say, 'Listen, I want to gain some weight, and I want to take something.' Then the physician would say, 'Do it six weeks before competition, then it will be safe.' And that's what you would do. The dosage that was taken then versus taken now is not even 10 percent. It's probably 5 percent."

Not a problem ... It is called a HRT program ... :)

Another advantage to aging. :)

I hear that. I started HRT at 28 :) I'm gonna be in better shape at 40 than when I was 20. Too much partying then.


And to whoever said Lou is an asshole and stupid cause you had to talk to his manager to ask questions- It's cause he's friggin deaf! I had to write my fuckin name on a piece of paper for him to sign an auto. HE CAN'T FUCKIN HEAR!

Don't know if this is true of not, but heard that when asked if he uses roids Arnold said "everyday prescribed by my doctor".
 
Wow, I stand corrected on the Arnold statement.... I never knew he admitted it.... I would really like to see what his cycles consisted of, dosages and drugs.... Now that would be good reading...

I’d hazard a guess both Lou and Arnold are on HRT for “life extension and general health” purposes – good luck to them! Give it another 10 – 20 years and HRT will be utilised by many, many more men (with the money to pay for it) in my opinion.

Right. I'll do the same when I reach that age.
 
Lou has always been nice to me. A lot of people say how he is a jerk at expos, that they were ignored, etc. Lou has lost over 90% of his hearing. If you could hear less than 10%, and you were in an expo where HUNDREDS of people were all around making a ton of noise, how would you hear someone?!

Others also say he is an ass for charging for an autograph or pic. I don't blame him. That's how Lou makes his living. These guys aren't like football players, making millions a year. Lou doesn't hold onto the Hulk, he *needs* it. It helps put food on the table.

As for the steroid thing, I don't blame Lou for lying. Todays media makes you out to be some sort of terrorist if you take steroids. There's no more "admit that you use and it's safe and maybe it will make a difference" The world doesn't care if Lou, Arnold or anyone says this stuff is ok when used properly. For every person who says steroids didn't harm them, there will be 10 'experts' waiting to preach to the world how you will die and ruin your life just by even looking at some test.
 
The problem is there are really idiots out there who think you can get that size without steroids.

A good rule of thumb:

If someone has competed in the MR. O in the last 30 years, they were juiced up.

If their picture is in Muscle and Fitness/Flex and they have their routine listed below, they are on the juice.

If someone is shredded at 300+lbs., they are on the juice.

If someone is benching over 600lbs. they are on the juice.

Superman does not exist....well not naturally.
 
I think LOuie is a god damn stud how ever he makes his money.

he hated his life and he found a way to fix it he is a real life success story :D
 
How can anyone blame him for lying?

Come on. Society these days places steroids in the same category as herion and crack...it just doesn't pay to tell anyone that you're using. Don't tell ANYONE.
 
I have been lucky enough to meet and talk to Lou, he is a great guy. I had a 1.5 hour personal training session with him this summer. Its true he really is practically deaf, he is a lip reader, he has to learn how each person talks and moves their lips. I think until you talk to him alot its easy for him to misunderstand you. And BTW, he is definately still using juice. There is absolutely no way that at his age of 53 you can have muscles and veins that size without it. I think its great that he is though, hell I wouldnt have really wanted to see him and meet him if he looked like Mike Katz. I dont blame him for not admitting it. If people thought of him as a roid head he would be looked down upon and wouldnt be on the set of King of Queens anymore and I doubt he could maintain his perosnal training. Thats the way it goes, society seems to look at steroid users in the same light as crack feinds and acid heads. As for my main man Arnie, I wouldnt doubt if he is on HRT along with Lou, but not at the dosages Lou is using. But you guys saw him in T3 right....I guarantee he did a nice cycle to get in shape for that movie. He looked great.

I shudder to think what would happen if big name stars like Ferrigno and Arnold came out and said roids were ok "if used correctly." Just look at all the dumb asses that post their "help me" stories here. There would be some idiot that used an 18 gauge needle in his O-Ring. He would post asking how to get it out and REALLY want the answer fast.
 
I think denying them was perfectly reasonable.

There's nothing like having your whole mystique discredited by some faggot newscaster-know-nothing saying "oh well he got that big cause of steroids..." and then pretty much having everyone believe that.

It would be silly.
