He claims it took him 10 years to get rid of 70 lbs of muscles !
Palumbo is Not being honest about why he was "forced to lose all that hard earned gains" and why it took him that long to do so .......
But who's honest in this industry anyways ?

WoooSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

He stop juicing? ???

Yes he did a pregnancy protocol off trt for his last kid and his own test level came back to 600.
He decided to stay off.

Dave is spot on. I fasted like a madman in 2014 and lost 77 pounds on the scale and I also lost almost all of my hair on my head in that short 6 month period (true story) and while my body started healing itself after I stopped fasting and I began to regain lost muscle, my hair never regrew (and my hair was thick as fuck the day I started fasting). Live and learn.
WoooSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
-
how much you reckon his head weighs
-
His liver took a major beating and was warned to get another hobby so thats where the snake collection came in to play besides he wanted to have kids and see them grow.
So, he might not be huge but he is vascular and extremely dry at 49 still impressive by any standards.
-
impressive how?
-
Ten years lol!
Without roids you lose 70 lbs muscles in 10 weeks!!!
-
At 5'9", Palumbo would be a ripped 270 if he never lifted weights, so it is understandable that it would take him 10 years to lose 70 lbs of muscle.
-
In MMA, his fighting weight would be 170, as would Heath’s.

Who is the heaviest UFC fighter who is 5'9? That is Phil's height. Dave is 5'10.5". Mark Hunt is around that height, and he competes as a heavyweight. Kelvin Gastelum is 5'9 and competes at 185.
But I would agree that most fighters that height are 170 - in fact, a lot of them fight in even lighter classes. But to compete in the 170 class at 5'9 puts you in a position where you are still thin, yet have a decent amount of muscle mass and [hopefully] strength to go with it.

Can Danimal77 verify Dave's weight?
-

A lot - got a head size like a bucket

Dave isn’t even 5’10

He lies about how much he use to take as well...he always claims he never took more than 1200mg test but in the interview with Big Lenny he let it slip it was more like 6000mg a week
-

After the beating his body took, that's impressive

sweet spot of peace...
-
Hes still in contest shape year round which is really impressive. Must have a freakish metabolism.
Downsizing is the smart thing do to for ex-pros, and for palumbo his joints are too messed up anyway to take advantage of drugs/food etc... Nobody cares how much he weights hes a fucking millionaire
-
prob on HRT and that is worth 20lbs of muscle instead of 20lbs of fat
-
impressive how?
Try to lose 70 lbs and remain lean , vascular ,tight skin and contest like shape year round. At almost 50.

Interesting. He had a decent head of hair. I wonder how big his feet grew since those days? Dave now has the shoe size of an 8 foot man.

all three in the photo have the same kinda hair and haircut whats up with that

they lose 20-30 in 24 hours or so, so their real walk around weight is 190-200 if in the 170 class

I saw Dave at 315 pounds at the New Englands and he was as vascular as a prick.
-
Palumbo was as purple as big Curtis in the 90s at golds and hes still alive today whilst Curtis has been 6 foot under for the last 20 or so years, Dave's 190 strategy is working well in comparison.

That back then was the “put in the butt” young males would get, they didn’t have to say a word to attract schmoes, the hair did the talking

I wonder whats he's using now to be so vascular
-
Slave turdmumbo
-
I wonder whats he's using now to be so vascular
It's called unhealthy varicose veins.
-
Gotta admit he was a beast at one point and had an epic curly/flat top hybrid hair style.

You are right...He's still juicin, just smaller amounts....Poser...

Did Palumbo have any injuries?
-
Paulmbo puts the best bodybuilding content out bar none. I like the guy.
-
Did Palumbo have any injuries?
Seriously?
Six quad/knee surgeries and a recent full shoulder replacement. The other one needs to be done too.
-
Currently watching this one about Getbig’s own native son, Craiggers.
-
Palumbo wised up. Realized being comfortable is way more important than being huge. Especially given his poor genetic structure. 190 isn't big but it's not small either. No reason to be any heavier and I'm sure he is strong enough to do whatever he enjoys.
-

By Palumbo's own admission, he was 145 lbs in college. When a natural 145 lb man unnaturally adds 120 lbs of muscle, the body becomes fooled and tries to hold on to the newly acquired muscle mass, thus the 10 years it took to lose 70 lbs of muscle despite employing muscle-wasting measures like continuing to lift weights and using muscle building "supplements".

That’s the majority of the pros without drugs, they are all short to began with so naturally they don’t weigh much
A 5’6 or 5’9 man with small bone structure isn’t going to be close to 200 naturally
With their genetics/response these guys are adding over 100+ lean pounds on a body that’s under 6 ft tall
-
Dave is at least 5'10". And probably was 5'11" in younger days.
Photos/videos don't do justice. His skin looks way more younger and fresh in person

So name another bodybuilder 5’9” or taller that once was Over 300 pounds and now is bellow 200 lbs lean vascular and with his health intact.
Jumbo wins once again.

I dare ya to watch this without cringing in embarrassment

Insecure men wanting to claim they kept most of there gains ;D
When you come off, within six months to a year you will be back at baseline.
It's usually the stocky guys who believe they keep there gains. But then again they were big before the juice
Skinny dudes are the best example of what happens when you come off. I lost everything and am comfortably sitting at fly weight
-
Holy shit, Mustafa still has some big ass legs.
His legs were enormous so makes sense they still look big but yeah they look pretty huge compared to upper body which looks like nothing.

Cormier is about that but he has a bone structure that can hold a lot of BF. A ripped dc would fight 185. That was his college wrestling weight.

Has a pacemaker or something on his heart at well. Found out he has an arrhythmia a while back when he first started downsizing. That's what put an end to his cycling obsession. Noticed it when he started having 200bmp heart rates while cycling and went in to have it checked out and I hooked up to some to some telemetry stuff. Says he was out cycling one day and she had a 200 plus beat per minute jump in heart rate the monitoring place called him and ask him what he was doing and told them and they said stop immediately and come into the hospital immediately and they install the pacemaker or some shit to control or prevent a heart attack or whatever the fuck it was
-
He looks like he has AIDS.

Hi Dave.

His answer about palumboism!
Was dave saying that bodybuilders dont take GH over a long enough period of time to cause acromegaly?

Barry Bonds must have been mega dosing in the early 2000's in order to get that cranial growth.

I dare you to find an bodybuilder uglier than Palumbo.

I wonder how his skin handled the drop from #300+ to sub 200.

Worst genetics ever?

AIDS-man.

Dave makes a great living and leads a great lifestyle doing what he enjoys. I don’t see how anyone can be a bodybuilding fan and hate on Dave unless you have your own frustrations and issues because you never went anywhere into the hobby you’ve been into for 30+ years.

I'm not sure that's the point of this thread.

Dave pushed the needle as fav as he go could......
he was/is an extreme dude
he raises snakes (puke)
-
Palumbo currently looks terrible, but downsizing was the right thing to do.
He needs to stick around a little longer for his kids, but I doubt he'll be around for any grandchildren.

I bet that he had some sort of heath scare at some point... maybe even a mild heart attack. Something scared him, and that’s why he dropped all that weight
-
Dave still seems to recommend giant doses
i feel that is common with east coast 1980s and 1990s bbers - just up the dose "said from the bench of a world gym" or driving am iroc z28 camaro with T-tops
-
Palumbo is 150 -160lbs soaking wet.
the "difficulty of losing 70lbs of muscle" was the difficulty of him not taking TRT.

This . now he must be under 170 lbs.... in one recent clip Lee Priest is making fun on how Dave moves his hands constantly when talking , and Dave replies that he does that so people don't focus on his ugly face or how crippled his shoulder or upper body looks nowadays . kinda sad .
The opposite of Bodybuilding has to be body -destroying right ?
the shoulder surgeries had him with one shoulder lower than other , not to mention his knees/legs surgeries..... today he is only veins and forehead, his head is 27 inches and shoe size 15 !!! not hating on the guy since I really like his channel but when you see him walking around with his mic at Expos or public places he looks like a character from Beavis and butthead . or something bursting out of Arnolds stomach from Total Recall movie
Palumboism is eating him inch by inch as we speak :'(
WoooSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH H

What's the point of even working out to look that bad? He'd look better if he were fat.

How are people like this big nosed drug mule not in prison? The shitbag admits to supplying his “clients” with stolen drugs... from a US military site, no less.
He’s an admitted drug guru who posts proudly about advising others on illegal drug use, purchase, etc.

You can see them in his "day in the life" videos or whatever they're called, and he always wears shorts and basketball high tops that just accentuate his walk with his feet flopping like he's wearing fins for swimming.
I'm surprised nobody's talkin about the pacemaker thing or whatever he has in his heart now.
Remember how he was balls deep in cycling? Then all a sudden there's no more mention of cycling. Almost like he kept the heart surgery hush hush for a while, but he's mentioned it since now.

He has a Medtroinic Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) treating tachycardia. Also I thinks he's maybe around 180 max now.
Besides the injuries this is another reason to keep weight down.

you are right - dave was big time into cycling then no mas - maybe why he took up the snake breeding

180-lb at 5'10" or just over would make sense to me. He's not small by normal people standards - just by IFBB professional bodybuilder standards.
I was surprised I still have bradycardia [resting heart rate under 60], and that it dropped to 52-55 on my recent heart ultrasound. I was very happy with that.
I had ballooned up to 213-lb [almost all excess fat gain], and that was a health scare to me. I think most competitive bodybuilders have a hard time letting bodybuilding go. So for Dave to reduce body weight so significantly leads me to believe he did that for a reason.
Obviously, I fear for Dave's health. And my health. I fear for everyone's health!
I only recall Dave bulking up to maybe 220-lb once, around this time in 2014, or around then. He is pretty committed to being lighter, so I would bet money that he has a legitimate reason to be so small.
But lol @ any bodybuilder saying it would be hard to lose muscle, haha. In 2003-2004, Tom Prince said that getting below 230-lb would be hard for him. Then around this time in 2004, the Max Muscle photos of Tom came out, where he was maybe 190-lb.
As if bodybuilders losing massive amounts of muscle takes anything more than simply going off PEDs.
I personally dropped 213-lb to 173-lb in 90 days of intermittent fasting. If I added cardio, I could drop to 157-lb which was the lightest I've been since 2005 [I dieted to 157-lb in 2016, just to see how lean I would get - but I ended up wasting a lot of muscle in the process].
My impression is that many pros don't have amazing genetics for building mass - most are under six feet tall, and would be maybe 180-lb off steroids. I think most pros have amazing genetics for muscle STRUCTURE and SHAPE. So not to compare myself to them, but I think a lot of pros would lose weight just as fast as I did, if they were not using steroids.
I think the main genetic advantage they have is with the shape of their muscles. But the notion that pros would be 250-lb at 10% body fat without juice is not one that I subscribe to.
The problem is, there are so many fake naturals, I'm not even sure what is actually steroid-free or not.
Dave has been pretty upfront about his fertility drug cocktail - has he said if he still uses TRT? Is Dave on TRT, or completely off everything now?
-

I was trying to remember what it was since I have tachycardia. Resting pulse will jump to 120-130. I thought Dave said he has an arrhythmia.
His shoulders look bad now. I thought after the 2nd shoulder replacement he wouldn't be so crooked, but it looks the same. One shoulder way higher than the other. Wonder wtf they did to cause that.

I think most pros have amazing genetics for muscle STRUCTURE and SHAPE. So not to compare myself to them, but I think a lot of pros would lose weight just as fast as I did, if they were not using steroids.
I think the main genetic advantage they have is with the shape of their muscles. But the notion that pros would be 250-lb at 10% body fat without juice is not one that I subscribe to.
The problem is, there are so many fake naturals, I'm not even sure what is actually steroid-free or not.
Dave has been pretty upfront about his fertility drug cocktail - has he said if he still uses TRT? Is Dave on TRT, or completely off everything now?
For the last time he is NOT 5’10
5’8 at best

And swimming. Had a big pool installed and has new shoulders.
I remember when he tore is quad on stairs.
Him and Ronnie are worse than pro football players jeez

The angle is not the best but still :
WooSHHHHHHHHHHHH :D
A size 15+ shoe for the average person is usually over 6’2 or taller
On a 5’8 man that looks ridiculous hahahahahaha ;D
In comparison branch wears size 7.5 shoes :D

I was trying to remember what it was since I have tachycardia. Resting pulse will jump to 120-130. I thought Dave said he has an arrhythmia.
His shoulders look bad now. I thought after the 2nd shoulder replacement he wouldn't be so crooked, but it looks the same. One shoulder way higher than the other. Wonder wtf they did to cause that.
I an earlier post you said he had a heart rate that jumped to 200bpm when riding which would be tachycardia but an ICD will also treat an arrhythmia. The most common type of arrhythmia is atrial fibrillation, which causes an irregular and fast heart beat. Sooo he's covered. My guess would be this is all from an enlarged left ventricle LVH common in bodybuilders/lifters.

I heard 5'10.5" claimed...when I saw him in person, he looked about that.
Did he lose height due to surgery? Or is he known to wear lifts?
-
lol @ reporting your height in half-inch increments
-
he was/in an extreme dude.
selling fake HGH, jail time, excessive doses, his buddy "Derek Anthony" breeding snakes etc
so nothing is shocking about dave at all.
I do like his RX Muscle youtube channel - his Ask Dave segment is great
-
I'm still convinced that this guy is a freakin' space alien.

It's a Manlet thing. I feel like I would be lying by saying 5'9", so I report my lowest nighttime height of 5'8.5".
It's funny seeing a guy who is 5'6" claim 5'8". Maybe I could just lie and say 5'10". Most men add around 1.5" to 2" to their actual height.
-
Guys always lie about height, waist size... and yes, the size of their junk, both length and width. :-X

Last year, a woman told me that men add 20% to their penis size. I was like "Uhh... wouldn't she just find out later that he was lying?"
She then said "Well - we don't pull out a ruler."

I can't watch because he has that Romano idiot on. Also he's always giggling at everything Priest says and he's really not that funny. I like him better in his warehouse videos.

I agree with you. Romano is a fucking idiot. Lee Priest has also grown old. Dave is like Billy Bush in that he is very smart but he dumbs up and/or down depending on the company he keeps.
-
Haha, what is this?
They're getting mighty close !!!!!
I bet that's how Dave blew his knees. Lmao.
-
Dave is a pretty interesting guy and is talented as a commentator. I imagine he regrets the damage he did to his body for that 15 minutes of bodybuilding fame though.

thank you
cannot stand Romano or Lee Priest -
RX Muscle "ask dave" is 30 minutes of Q&A which I enjoy. I like to hear his ideas about comp diets and random PED questions.
i need to get a life ;D ;D ;D

I don't get how ppl say "Lee's so cool! Nicest guy I met!" Etc...
Every time I've met Lee he's been a standoffish dick. His bitter asshole routine is old.
Glad he lasered that ink off his face at least. That shit looked retarded.

A size 15 shoe on Dave’s 5’8 body must look ridiculous ;D :D
Like Ronald McDonald clown shoes

He’s def an odd fella, when he used to live in Austin, I would see him all the time at the powerhouse gym now changed to Austin fitness or something like that. Anyways, he was very shy, quiet and reserved, nothing like the videos you see of him, you really had to get to know him before you see that side of his personality. I would say he’s an extrovert

Exactly, the other day a kid asked him on social media if he has ever competed in the Mr.O and he replied "go to Google" …..an insecure arrogant douche bag answer ….. when did he last compete in Mr.O? 2003 ? social media wasn't even invented by then and he isn't exactly that famous so this younger generation don't have a flying fuck clue who this demonized tattooed fat lesbian lookalike leprechaun is .
WooSSHHHHHHHHHH ta na ka

The fucking moron is planning on getting new face tats after the old ones are gone. Can't believe Booty let him shit on her luscious musk melons.

He is living proof of extraterrestrial life.

I'm 5'8" and a half. A guy at work told me I was 5'10" the same height he was. No,I know my height. We are the same height but he insisted he was 5'10" and I was 5'10". To this date one of the most bizarre conversations I ever had. He insinuated I didn't know my height.

A friend of mine is my height, and says he is 5'11".

Some people just want to argue. These types will argue about the most absurd things.
I once was 71 1/2". I've shrunk. I say I am 70", but the doctor's office says I am 69 1/2" tall. Maybe the fellow wanted to maintain the delusion that he was 1 1/2" taller than he actually is.

Who cares

I tend to think he might be a vampire...

I`ve stood next to Dave quite a few times and I`d say he`s 5`8" .
