Man, too bad, would have been fun to compete against a girl, lol. That's a myth about height BTW. There are guys my height that are just boxy and blocky. And, no matter how tall you are putting on muscle is fuckin hard.
That's so true. I mean I did pretty good but no matter what I did I was never going to be Mr. Olympia or even get close to a Mr. Olympia stage. Yeah, I could have got the pro card but I couldn't put the size on needed to be a good pro, it would have ended there for me. If you think about it the guys who compete at the Olympia are the guys who have perfect structure, or can just put on insane amounts of size and freaky hardness(Branch Warren ie), also they react unusually well to anabolic drugs, plus they have the discipline and work ethic to get the most out of what they were gifted with. Or you just get the super freak who has everything(Phil Heath, Ronnie Coleman, Flex Wheeler) freaky size and hardness plus symmetry and a pleasing physique to look at. And then you have the guys with the perfect genetic structure(Shawn Ray, Dexter Jackson). Either way your talking about the best of the best, the top 1% in the world. It takes a lot more than hard work to get there you need to be blessed on top of it.
I saw the same and said that's a fuck ton of gear
Dude I wasn't talking about me at all, see that's what I don't understand. I actually put myself down if you read what I wrote. I said I didn't have the genetics to go that far. Then I just talked about some great bodybuilders and how no matter what a normal person does drug wise, training wise, eating whatever, they could never approach that level. So, all u can do is be the best you can be for yourself. Then you say I'm reliving my glory days?? Dude i dont care really about what I did 20 years ago, I'm just trying to get it through to people that potentially damaging your health chasing an impossible goal isn't smart. It's kind of like a high school base ball player, fairly good one. Thinks if he take the all kinds of GH and steroids they will hit 700 home runs like Barry Bonds or A-rod. It's just not going to happen. Now, if you do some contests, do well, get to national level shows and do well and you clearly have what it takes then I'm all for going for it. I don't understand your comment it's like you're trying to start crap again. This shit isn't my life man, I'll never compete ever again, I dont want to be any bigger than I am right now. I tell you guys these things because there are young guys out there who really believe they can drug their way to looking a certain way.(example, they listen to this Boston Loyd clown who has the done shit in stage). It doesn't just affect the their health, it affects their lives, they ignore what's really important, like school, family and living your life. I know young bodybuilders at the gym I go to that won't go out with their girlfriend cause they may miss a meal or something dumb like that. So, please understand where Im coming from. I could give a shit what I did bodybuilding wise, it did absolutely nothing for me but cost me lots of money. I never made any money off if it and, honestly if I could do it over again I wouldn't have wasted so much of my 20's on bodybuilding. Looking back it was just dumb. I fucked up relationships with girlfriends over it, I was in law school at the end and because of juggling bodybuilding I didn't do half as well as I should have in law school which ended up making my job choices coming out of school more limited. I don't want to waste time writing long posts on here either and I'm not getting dragged back into any arguments. But, before you say something like you did actually read what was written and actually try to comprehend it. I'm done with this thread. I said what I had to. If you want to use thousands of dollars of drugs for no good reason more power to you, it's your life. I'm just trying to put some reality out there. But I'm done. I'll comment on other things, I do know way too much about drugs and getting ready for contests ect so I'll keep it at that. What you want to do is your business but just be honest with yourself.
Yeah it's really me, and thanks for the compliment but actually I regret wasting all the time I did back then while not putting enough effort in other things. I wrote about that in the last post. There is no reward in bodybuilding unless you're at the very top. I spent so much cash on competing with absolutely no return except a stupid 30$ trophy. And, I wasn't your typical bodybuilder of the time, I had other things going on that we're much more important to my future at the time. Bodybuilding adversely affected those things and it was just a poor decision on my part to put out so much effort with no real chance of any real return.
See, I was stupid for coming back here, obviously not everyone, I've talked to a lot of guys on pm and they are cool as hell. But why in the world would you say I have an inferiority complex?? I'm the last one who has a problem with confidence and it has absolutely nothing to do with bodybuilding. It seems some of you guys think I posted that picture to say look at me, look how great I was 20 whatever years ago. Obviously, you're missing my whole point. I know I looked good when I competed I was very successful, I don't need anyone's praise about that. To make it clear to you, I posted the picture to show you can be successful without listening to idiots like Boton "I'm a fuckin wannabe who's never won anything important" Loyd. I can't believe I let some idiotic comments, from a few guys, get me to respond again but these comments are so off base I couldn't say nothing. I guess I should just take my experience, keep my mouth shut and let guys who aren't getting any good advice use 3000 Mgs of gear a week and shoot synthol into every body part(that's real smart, I would never touch that stuff). I know, I'm insecure so nothing I've experienced or say matters, lol. I try to help, it's not worth it I guess. I mean I get pms from guys who really do actually understand what I'm saying asking for advice, that was the reason I even bought this up and why I put that picture up. I really have to stop reacting to idiotic comments that really are disrespectful.
It's cool man, I'm not mad at anyone, honestly. And I would help anyone with anything for free, just ask. I'm not comparing myself to Loyd, the guy is no where near where I was at when I quit but somehow he's a Internet guru. I hear you though I know everyone says the guys an idiot, all you have to do is watch his stupid videos to see that. But, since he changed his physique so drastically people will take what he says seriously. I don't know, the things he says he does(maybe he's just talking shit) is really disturbing and I can tell you for a fact that top pros use no where near those types of doses and amounts of other drugs. But no we are cool, I'm on here cause I have a side of me that is same as you. A gym rat. No one knows I still use drugs and actually its very stupid because I could potentially loose my license to practice my profession because I am violating the law. So, I guess I'm not the smartest either. I'm with you with just dropping this and supporting and helping each other.
I'm a fine law abiding citizen of this great democracy. No addictions for me other than gear use year round
