That's so true. Every show I go to there's a guy that looks like he never touched a weight in his life. Then you have the "heavyweights" that should be middleweights.
LMAO! Those might be my favorite, I love the guys in terrible condition who weigh 30 pounds more than they should on stage. I think the most akward time for them has to be when they go backstage and see everyone else and think what the hell am I doing here.

The sad thing is that most of them don't even notice it. I remember once when I was managing a Powerhouse gym back east, this fat powerlifter came up to me saying that he was doing the local show. Keep in mind this is 1 week out. "All I have to do is drop my water and I'll be good". I looked at him and laughed...then realized he was serious... :worried:

That is definitely amazing. I remember seeing a guy at a show who was literally atleast 60 pounds out of contest shape, His gut was hanging out over his trunks. When he walked out you could hear the whole crowd gasp, not pretty. He apparently thought he looked great. I just don't get it. Then there is the guy backstage who realizes he needs 50 more pounds of muscle, he is just kind of cowered in the corner with that deer in the headlights look. By no means am I some awe inspiring monster, but damn if you don't look respectable give it some time.

Yeah, I agree with that. I remember a show where I walked into the bathroom and there was this young fat kid putting on posing oil. I thought to myself, "Oh, no, he's not...". Yep. He did. He came out fat as shit. I felt bad for him.

I know what you mean, I tend to feel bad for people when you can tell that they know they shouldn't be there. I can't imagine how crushing it would be to get there and know that you had no business being there. I try to be positive towards those people, you never know what they have been through in their life. They don't need to be torn down.

great stories guys
Going to or being in shows is always memorable. Back stage is definitely an experience. I can still smell the menthol smell in the air, the air was so think from cooking spray and the humidity you could barely breathe. I can't wait until July 16th, I get to do it all over again!
