Here is a pic of me in the national UK newspaper called the daily Mail on my 70th birthday.  I know more about what went on in the 60's and 70's than you kids would care to know but I will start my own thread and answer honestly if you want.


Hi Jimmy, you still look good.

Serge, no offense intended.  I'm just doubtful of almost everything that I read in bb mags and now the boards.

Bonjour Serge.
I have always admired your physique since I was a young child.Very few bb'ers have nicknames that suit their physique but yours of Black Panther I always felt fit you to a "t".Awesome physique that is very pleasing to the eyes in regards to proportion, mass, symmetry etc.
My question to you is what got you involved in bodybuilding & wanting to make your body better then what nature gave you.Arnold's idol was Reg Park.Did you have an idol that you wanted to emulate in bb'ing or did you just learn about training w/weights through another means?Thanks.

When I was a kid, I wanted to be a architect, but my farther did not want, I want me to be an accountant, so I became one, but I followed my dream to be an architect, by being my own one on my body.

Steve REEVES for me was the best bber.

Does that make you Jesus? 

BTW - Didn't you previously write "But even if I lied, No comparason with what I read today"

If this is your view then why can't you understand a little bit of healthy skepticism on my part?

Serge, I just finished day 2 of the workout that you have listed. The first day I did legs and chest, but I did chest first cause there would have been no way I would have been able to do chest after legs. I kept the rest period at 1 min. Today my chest, front delts and triceps are VERY sore. My quads did not feel too sore today but I realized how sore they were when I did lying leg curls. It actually hurt to lay on them.  :'( ;D

I did back and hamstrings today. I kept the rest peroid at 30 sec on back. I did 26 sets for back total. I would be too embarassed to list the weights that I had used. Anyone who decides to give this a try better check their ego at the door. Tomorrow is shoulders and arms then it starts all over again on Thru. I know my triceps will till be sore tomorrow, but I am sure that this will not always be the case as I adapt to the workload. I have no idea how long I will last on this.  ;D

Well done Discgusting, I know already that you will stick on it. You are right when you said :"I would be too embarassed to list the weights that I I would be too embarassed to list the weights that had used. Anyone who decides to give this a try better check their ego at the door."

This method is reserved only for people who does not have a big EGO, that true, that don't means that I am not strong, because I could do on bench press 225 kg with a body weight of 93 kg, but I used to train with only 70/90 kg.

Indeed he is supposed to have said that.  I'm working on turning water into wine but so far all I can do is turn wine into water.  Just kidding. Good point actually, even though I'm not a christian.

NO, he did not even try, because maybe he did not want to finish to the hospital.

on Wikipedia, but it is in french, someone maybe can translate it in english. MAYBE MONTANA, I know that she speak english.

Of course, I would love to assist. Serge is my hero--the greatest bodybuilder in the world. Here is an english translation of the french wikipedia:

Serge Nubret (Born October 6, 1938 in Anse-Bertrand, north of Grande-Terre, Guadeloupe) is a bodybuilding federation leader, movie actor and more recently book author awarded many bodybuilding titles including Mr. Europe (1966), Mr. Universe (1976) and Mr. World (1977). Serge equally challenged opponent Arnold Schwarzenegger for the title of Mr. Olympia 1975 after having placing third in 1973. His nickname is the black panther.

Youth

Serge Nubret spent his first years in Anse-Bertrand in a community of 7,000 people. He spent nearly 12 years of his life enjoying fresh air playing outdoors before moving with his parents to the region of Paris, France in 1950. He lived thereafter in the community of Joinville-le-Pont, completing his secondary studies before choosing a business program. During his adolesence and young adulthood, he quickly became aware of his exceptional potential for athletics and recalls this reflection in his book I Am…Me and God; in his own words, his dedicating himself to bodybuilding was to become his "reason of being." He explains in his book his destiny of a fixed champion assigned to him by God ["I Am"]. He returned in Guadeloupe in 1958 in order to escape the draft for the algerian war. It was during this period of his life he discovered bodybuilding, which he practiced simultaneously while pursuing business accounting. Bodybuilding was not encouraged by his father at the time who was concerned that it did not have as much potential for financial income as an accounting career.

Bodybuilding Champion and Film Star

Three months after entering the world of bodybuilding, Serge won the title of Mr. Guadeloupe, which he won again the following year as well. He was sent in 1960 to Montreal to show the flag of Guadeloupe in support for his country at the time of the World Championship organized by the IFBB. It was there Nubret was named Most Muscular Man of the World. Returning next to Paris without going to Guadeloupe, he was contacted by the Films Ariane for a role in a Duccio Tessari Italian péplum film called "The Titans" which was released in 1961 and was prelude to a rich career of 25 films:

Le condé, (a.k.a. The Cop) (1970)
Caesar and Rosalie, co-starring Yves Montand (1972)
The Professional, co-starring Jean-Paul Belmondo (1981)

In the 1980s, Serge appeared regularly in 60 episodes of the television series Breakfast Included, with Pierre Mondy and Marie-Christine Barrault, in which he played the role of bodybuilder/gym owner in Paris, a role that mirrors his own biography.

At last, he appeared in the documentary film Pumping Iron, alongside Lou Ferrigno and Arnold Schwarzenegger, a documentary that follows the events occuring before the Mr. Olympia 1975--the preparation for the competition as well as it's final phase. For contract reasons, his part is comparatively brief; certain scenes concerning him could not be put in the movie. But these episodes are discussed further in his book, I am…Me and God.

Athlete and Leader

During the 1970s, Nubret finished third to the Mr. Olympia in 1973 and second in 1975. Vice President of the IFBB Europe of 1970-1975, Nubret then founded the WABBA in 1976. He competed up to 1984, when he won his last title of champion of the world to the WABBA. He caused quite a stir in Gravelines in 2003, when he guest posed at the WABBA WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP; he was 65 years old.

List of Bodybuilding Awards

1958: Mr. Guadeloupe
1960: IFBB World Most Muscular Man
1970: NABBA Mister Universe 2nd
1970: IFBB Mr. Europe (Tall)
1972: IFBB Mr. Olympia (3rd place)
1974: IFBB Mr. Olympia (2nd)
1975: IFBB Mr. Olympia (2ND)
1976: Pro NABBA Mr. Universe
1976: WBBG Mr. World (2nd)
1977: WBBG Mr. World
1977: WBBG Mr. Olympus 1981: Pro WABBA World Championships
1982: Pro WABBA World Championships

I am… Me and God

In 2006, 68 year old Serge Nubret wrote his book, I am…Me and God in collaboration with Louis-Xavier Babin-Lachaud. The book is not only autobiographical in nature, but it also includes his personal reflections on his christian faith and mysticism of the author. Through his life narrative, it adopts a definite position on the role of God in this world, on the conflict between destiny and free will and on the illusion of this world. More than an assembly of memories, the book indicates the will to succeed and to follow the way traced by God, love of the "reason to be" author, that is not other than the bodybuilding. A second work, completely autobiographical, is to come.



THANK YOU MONTANA, YOUR TRANSLATION IS PERFECT? SO YOU MUST SPEAK A VERY GOOD FRENCH THEN, I WILL SENT YOU MY PHONE # MAYBE WE COULD SPEAK ON THE PHONE ONE DAY.

Serge come over the History Board.  Nobody can say anything bad there.  Also, if this is the real Serge I am pretty sure any ragging from anyone on here will get them a ban for awhile from Ron.  Serge is way above any kind of "owning" anyone can give him on here.  But, with some of the dummies on here it is sure to come.  Serge is to bodybuilding as Vince G. is to looking like shit.  We need him here

I agree.


Great to have you Mr. Nubret.

Hello Serge,

Its an honour and priviledge to have you posting on getbig.

I do have a question..

Do you keep a training diary? Do you see the benefit of recording work out details?

No, because I have a very good memory for things that I love, and BBing is what I love the most.

Serge,

If you could only choose one exercise for chest, would you choose chest flys or benchpress?

Bench press of course, because it is the basic. It is like squat for legs.
