Universal pays SHIT. So not so sure about that...

Oh, I don't know anything about that. But at least he gets to travel and have a laugh with his passion. That's more than most.

The travelling sucks total ass for training. I think they take guys like him as no pro would put up with that much having to move around. Fuck that. Terrible for what they need to do.

Looks good, but in most gyms in the US, you got gym rats bigger and better. Not hating as I like Antoine but just don't see this being right for him...

He can get notoriety by doing some of the smaller shows. Granted he has to come in ultra diced (something that has rarely happened for him) but then they would give him a fair shake.

The only thing he has going for him is the aesthetic physique, and the balanced physique...why ruin that trying to get too big for your own body.

He will be a better bodybuilder, being himself at 100%, rather than turning his physique into a grotesque mess to please the "judges".

His delts overpower his chest too much to be labeled "balanced" To play the card that would give him any chance, he needs perfect symmetry.

Weak back, chest, can't be brought up by now, would have to downsize the rest to match hence the reason physique is his only chance now I find.

His legs and calves though could be too big though. Does not pass off as "physique" much.

So if he is kept my Universal, he's damn lucky.

What's the point of all these vids, some compulsory deal due to his supplement contracts?

Certainly not going anywhere if he doesn't even enter shows..

Antoine Update: He's alive

Yes, he will be off the grid for a while getting his life straightened out. I talked to him 2 weeks ago and his head is in the right place.

Yes, he's contracted to make these vids.

He seems to be stagnating. His BBing/Universal gig will not last forever. Hopefully, this guy has another skill-set and a plan B.

He's even selling motivational videos

Personalized Motivational Talk Video

It’s a personalized video where I say a few sentences to you, talking about training and motivation in general. Videos are around 2 minutes long. I can say something specific or come up with something myself to say. (Note: Any strange or irregular requests will be refused.)

Well I know his people at Universal/animal have come on the boards and said that they talked to him on the phone on and off the past several months and that he said he has stepped back to get his shit together yada yada yada so he should be lucky he still has industry support no matter how well they pay don't pay.

In all seriousness though, I hope that he is actually doing what he says he is doing and not just telling them over the phone what they want to hear ie most bosses/employers would want absolute proof especially if they are honouring a contract or holding a job.

I've always like the dude but that part on bold is kinda questionable. Was wondering about him the other day. Seems it's taking a long ass time to get back on track. I've gotten myself out of the gutter from a much more serious drug problem than him, did not need no "team" or endless online support.

Anyway, good luck to him but the motivational vids thing is kinda lame.

From what I've heard, it's rather a partying problem in his case. A close friend of him committed suicide and partying was his way to deal with that.

That bold 'disclaimer' is understandable. Dude prob gets the weirdest requests from schmoes, asking for homoerotic 'motivational' vids.

That's fine and all but all this suicide with the friend stuff took place like what over a year ago, nobody just starts partying and becomes an addict in 10 minutes, this stuff was brewing long before his friend killed himself.

BTW I am not being insensitive, I have known a whack of people(some were friends, some aquaintences) who have passed due to "misadventure" the past 2 years esp, as well as ppl I know who have lost others close to them via murder/suicides and somehow these people have come back from addiction and/or stayed clean during these times, and some of these ppl have every excuse to go back to the "lifestyles" they were in previously
