So what's up with all these washed up bodybuilders using 3 sizes too big suits? Looks goofy like the old zoot suits.

Respect to this man. 

95% of you on here won't be training at all, let alone doing squats with 315 when you're 61 years old.

That's actually a very good interview. I like Palumbo's way of talking to his guests, he does that very well.
Never was a fan of Platz, but here he comes across as smart and very positive

Nice retro vintage clothing, great to see Danny Padilla involved and looking fantastic!

Apparently when he does squat it's on the Smith Machine.  From the comments section:

I train at the same gym where Tom Platz does.  He doesn't squat much at all.  And when he does he uses smith machine. He's on the leg press and leg extension mostly.  He's a nice guy.

I'm not surprised, bodybuilders are by default pathological liars. They lie about everything from drug protocols to training regiments, supplementation and diets.

 :D

Sad part is that by using that suit, you can't take him seriously. It's like listening to a kid playing grownup who just raided daddy's suit wardrobe.  ;D
