pretty much an ageless guy.....

Those hair plugs are really standing the test of time.

He was posting here not too long ago. Whatever happened to that whole situation?

LOL Remember how bald he was when he won the Nationals? He has a full head of hair now

Mike,
You have a picture of him during Nationals?
I'd love to see that head of hair back then..

Well, I've seen his cock before in pictures, so it's not as if I haven't seen the goods already. ;)
I've just never seen Gary without hair.

You win again, my friend! ;D

Wait, have you seen Gary's national's pic? I know he wears a piece, but it's hard to believe that he ever went on stage without a cover up or something.

This is the youngest pic I've seen of Gary. Probably before he found mama's stash of Masteron and french Parabolan.
-
...and one more. Pretty fuzzy, but you can see the hair is going pretty fast here.

I think this is when he just turned pro

Yeah, he doesn't look terrible at all.
Aside from the hair, he always had a great physique (albeit with a less than stellar back).
I wonder what he is doing now to make money, hmmmmm... :P

Every pic from AFTER the 86 Nationals, he has a hat. In all his photo shoots he has a hat.

He looked older when he had his hair but when he had the plugs he looked younger , to me at least

He had the most amazing plugs!
First wife Alyse was pretty hot too!
And yes, I did own a few pairs of Crazee Wear baggys
-
Strydom simultaneously supported and betrayed Lee Haney. How? He didn't have his back (ba dum tish!).
Strydom: Don't worry Lee; I've got your back.
Haney: Yeah, right.
:-X ;D
-
Hard to believe he's older than Ronnie.
Yip Yip

Gary is still looking fantastic!
-
Terrific physique (no homo), and a swell guy, to boot. Hung with him in Venice in the mid-'90s.
I don't think money's an issue for Gary. During my visit the dude was SWIMMING in it.

How do you figure he came across it all?
Basically just hit the jackpot with Crazy Wear? He really sold that much of it? Fashion is a tricky business...is Gary truly a distribution and supply side whiz? I don't know the man personally.
I know he tried a supplement line in at the turn of the century, and it bombed very fast.

When gary made his comeback, it coincided with the release of his Strydom Signature Series supplement line

Man, the cat made LOTS of dough with that clothing line! LOTS.

plus he was the marquis guy at wbbf so he probably pulled over half a mill in two years between contract and prize money.

All have great quads (notice Asians tend to have that), #14 exceptionally thick quads, and #18 good lats.
The far right dude has a weird face

looks like those Taiwan boys got access to good steroids

weak arms too, but they make his delts look awesome

Yes. The hat shows how insecure he really is. Some people in the past use to think people who wore hair helmets were vain. Truth is they are just insecure people who live in fear. What's interesting about Gary is he is so insecure, that because of his super small penis, he decided to move everything he had to Asian country where his penis would fit right in. No wonder he wanted to take a header off a fcuking sky scraper.

No just Asians, most short guys. The funny thing in that picture is, if they all dropped their shorts including Gary, Gary would have the smallest penis. True Story.
-
Asian genetics for legs and calves are usually pretty good. I only inherited half the Asian gene and I rarely train calves and hams - yet if I hit them for 3 weeks, I'll have guys asking me what I do for them.
Sadly, Asians also tend to have very wide pelvic girdles, which means most look very boxy with little taper. My obliques grow like weeds (dammit).
ps - I don't really give two shits about Gary's penis. He's an awesome bodybuilder even today.

Did I hear penis? ;D

So you only care about building every single other part of the body other than penis?
-
Gary still looks awesome for someone who is in his 50's...most guys already would start to wither away.
-
Gary looks great but make no mistake. he is not natural, its actually sad to see a guy his age still trying to "stay young" and prove something to someone he will never see. in the end he will die of liver or kidney failure for all the years of high gear. Too bad he cannot just get over the age factor and get into a sport that is more akin to his age like hiking kayaking canoeing or biking. No way will his body stand the test he is one for long. He was a great champion in his day. time to let it go now.
To put it another way, taking drugs to hold your mass and size from yesterday knowing that the only benefit is vanity is foolhardy at best as your liver will most likely give out soon.
-

My penis is actually a very significant, treasured and loved part of me.
It's Gary Strydom's penis I don't give a fuck about.

Is that really so horrible to have some insecurities? You know - most people have 'em, doesn't matter whether they admit it or not.

I'm pretty sure that person doesn't live to please your "values" or "point of view" regarding his age or the stuff he allegedly "should" do at "his age", haven't this came into your mind? What if dude doesn't give a shit whether his liver will fail on him as long as he'll be in a top shape till his last day? Yeah, diff. people have diff. goals in life, SHOCK! :o
I fukkin' smh how judgemental are people and how everyone would like to see other ppl livin'the way they think it's "right".
-
Thats the trouble with todays society, everyone always feels they have the right to tell others how to live their life, maybe hes happy to live how he wants and is prepared to die bigger younger, not my go, but I couldnt give two shits what others do with their lives as long as it doesnt harm others.

Exactly. Dude is loaded, and if he wants to buy some "extra youth" (in a form of gh and other stuff) even if in expense of his life span - that's his choice based on his own reasons and motivations. It seems that for some it's very difficult to accept that there are minds who operate on their own terms and lead the life accordingly.
In after Gary 8)

he is a know it all homo so don't bother .. looking great at your age although I admire your body handling supps so well for so many years

First of all I wasn't guest posing in Kaohsiung?? Do you really think I would guest pose with sunglasses on lol. I was there to see the Fitness Factory and business matters. I just took my shirt off and did a pose or two. I had no color and these pictures are random pictures which are never the best pictures. I was 127kgs and lean. Thanks for all the good things said here about me. I maintain the bodybuilding life style because I enjoy it. Why would I be clean it makes no sense. Why wouldn't I want to look young?? Am blessed to be training like I do at 53. It's my goal to inspire other people to always workout and extend their lives. Am blessed to be alive and healthy enough to continue enjoying my passion for the sport. Am not that worried about money because I might have enough to eat, feed and protect those that I love. What I want to do now is grow my mind and heart spiritually. Life is about mind, heart and body. Oh and don't ever think am going to stop growing physically. Bring on the 'GROWTH" and all da gear ;D

I am going to have to point Howard to your post Gary.

i have the honor to meet Gary at the show, what a great guy and a fantastic physique esp at age 53, 1 of my favorite bodybuilder and someone i look up to since i was a teen who just start training
-
You could make a fortune doing seminars, more than current pros, if you were up front and honest about what it takes to have so much physical quality in life at 53, there are plenty of guys who would love your knowledge and how the bloodwork and organ maturity stacks up with your lifestyle at your age, 127kgs in good shape and you look healthy, plenty would pay money to see how you balance the positives against the negatives to achieve it,obviously genetics play a huge part but 127 at 53 is unachievable for a lot of guys who dont compete and are just running HRT, do you still run high miligrams in retirement, most as they have got older have got much more conservative, and are definatly looking to find that balance between use and abuse, lets face it the body as we age is less forgiving,

Good for you, Gary. Like I say in an earlier post in this thread, I hung with you a bit in Venice in about '94, and you were very pleasant and helpful. We chowed at the Firehouse and you ate an incredible amount. Still have the photo taken immediately afterwards out front.
The current crop of IFBB pros can't hold a candle to you, even at your age. Shit's gone downhill.
All the best to you, man.

127 Kgs happens to be 279.987 pounds.
I call bulshit on two counts
1- You converted from pounds (280, nice round number) to Kgs (127, odd number) to make it look more real ('you' being from metric system country) despite the fact that you were thinking in pounds
2- there is no way you are that weight in those pics
-
He looks amazing st that age. I think if he were very lean his age would show more. Gary seems to know his physique very well. Also very smart since you never see a photo from his weak side, vis-a-vis his back.
Fuck making all those sacrifices competing when you can make money being huge and not having to exist on chicken breasts and brown rice. Seems the dude has had a good life and that's more than what most pros can say.

You serious? Look at his calves in that first pic. I could easily see him being 280 in his current condition. Why would he lie about his weight anyways. Very few people give a damn about weight. Would anyone really care if he said less like 240 or 260?

Bodybuilders are like WWE Wrestlers, who have a policy of adding 10-15 pounds onto their actual bodyweight.

Unfortunately they still didnt invent drugs that make you grow up "spiritually". Maybe losing one or two internal organs due to decades of steroid abuse might help tho. You re a great inspiration to all of young people..you inspire them to take drugs to cure their insecurities. Do most people who are naive, gullible enough to buy your shit useless products know you didnt achieve this physique training the healthy and natural way as you claim it, but by actually injected/ingested external artificial hormones several times a week for years?

This is the same person that impersonated strydom before
BS till proven otherwise

I think he's one of these who openly talk about the use (well GH claims are bs, but still). Honest enough compared to other bullshiters.
And one def. can "grow spiritually" while growing physically, at the same time.
As for another comment on weight - dude is 6ft+, THICK, 127kg would be about right. He'd look HUGE in person you can bet that. Midgets often find it hard to believe weights over 240lb.
