Hello guys,
Im new to forum....
I was wondering how you can turn into a pro.I mean you must win 3 times your national ifbb championship(Im from a European country)?
Then, when you take your pro card you must be a us citizen in order to compete in usa?
And finally to which shows are you able to compete?
Thanks a lot....
-
Well, i think it would be a smart move to say "Fuck you" to this guy, that way coming to the U.S. will be easier.
-
Do they not have google over where you're from? Or do you just want someone to do your homework for you?

What do you mean with that???? If you dont want to answer me dont post! its so simple.Dont be a jerk.
-
Either a) Get a job that pays a fortune, or b) take out a massive loan.
Then:- Buy a shedload of gear.
- Wait til' you're 280lbs of enhanced freak -
Then compete. If you're lucky you can become a respected pro who can earn enough doing guest appearances, etc. If you're unlucky the only way to earn enough $$ to keep you in the game will be to turn to g4p. Enjoy...
P.S. I don't really know. 8)

Remember to do a lot of roids, then you'll turn pro by yourself eventually.
Oh, will have to suck some cock i forgot about that.

In Soviet Russia, Google looks up you!

That's not true! Derek Anthony has been sucking cock for years and years, not only can he not turn pro, but he can't even convince a promoter of minor amateur shows to let him compete!!!

Im not asking about roids, I know that you have to take lots of them and eat lots of food.
Read my first post carefuly.

Ask this idiot he knows everything

If you are European it is quite difficult. You have to win nationals in your country (usually not drug tested) and then you qualify for European or World Championships. If you win worlds, you can turn pro. European..you can apply and maybe turn pro. The difficult part is that european or worlds are drug tested, which makes it a whole different contest.
Sometimes if you are top in your country and brown nose enough or pay you can by pass these procedures.

Thanks man.
-
You are welcome.
It depends a lot from which country you are but it is never wrong to be friendly with people in the national federation...
Good luck
-
Priest and Yates and a few others turned pro via winning their national champs(several times), and their national federation applying to the IFBB.
I think to be accepted you have a ritual ceremony, and you gotta take someone out too.
The Worlds route is like roulette, even Ronnie Coleman struggled there.

1. superior response to hormones
2. money to buy these hormones
3. base base base,,you gotta have somewhat of a foundation before you start hormonizing yourself
4. lots of free time and food
5. stable relashionship with a woman that can accept being second to lifting for the time being,,or simply stay single
-
What was your route like gh15, quick, or lots of lower level shows?
-
Get a recommendation from your local federation to the IFBB and you will turn pro with out winning anything

Pros down play the gear cause it makes em uncomfortable knowing how much it really matters..
a good contact is about as hard to come by as good genes Tom.. :-\
-
It matters as much as it matters to the 100% of pro's that are on the same level playing field....so it's basically irrelevant.

Don't the rich ones have a less leve playing field than the poor ones?
I'm guessing a "pro" on mag covers winning 3 shows a year isn't on the same level as a "pro" who can't place top 10 at NY Pro.
Is there a huge level of quality difference in what a little money, and a lotta money, can get ahold of?

No...you're missing the point.
Taking more gear doesn't equate to a better BB...in most cases...it equates to a worse one.
Genetics have always been, and will always be, the determining factor. Genetics of shape, etc...genetics of response to the gear, and genetics of response to training.
All the gear in the world doesn't make narrow structure, wider...or a naturally wide wide waist, smaller.

I must agree!!
-
i agree on the structure thing.
my point was that low level guys can't afford the stuff top 10 guys can. when you see a 5 year pro suddenly move from #40 to #3 in teh rankings (hi gus!) you have to wonder if he finally learned which protein powder works best... or if he got his hands on some $ and well...

lmao!..common now..good diplomatic reply though!
other than the legality of it...lets put that aside..i think pros down play it because besides the juice a LOT OF work DOES go into it..
however..the guy on the street ..as soon as he hears the S words assumes that steroids r some sorta magic wand..
i had a friend like that..this is 7 yrs back...soo i got sick of him always mentioning that "jay is juicing" always conveniently around chicks..soo i went ahead and gave him 6 bottles of test..and told him..go ahead..knock yourself out..
600mgs/week on enanthate for well a period of ..well..do the math with 6 bottles..and he looked ezactly the same..

true..absolutely....
one example of a man that really shouldn't be pro but rich mummy and daddy sure helped..is tamali!
<i know..pot..kettle..black ..but still pointing out>

Did he go to the gym? There's no way someone won't have a decent change with a minor cycle.
-

yeah..he'd go to the UMCP CRC(campus rec center ::) ) with me....a REALLy nice gym man..
i'd train...i dunno wtf he would do in there..i do remember thinking he ws surprisingly strong when i caught him shoulder pressing the 70s ..for him that ws strong..but he'd like go from machine to machine (and i'd written down a decent program for him to follow..not machine though) hapzard..training everything ..or whateva machine had a hot soririty chick on it....i'd get done training and he'd still be there..cause he friggin waited 10 minutes between sets..
.. eventually i felt bad for him so i started telling him he got bigger...but..he honestly looked EXACTLY the same..
till i met him i woulda NEVER believed that" how an individual responds to juice" is actually a factor..
-
Do they not have google over where you're from? Or do you just want someone to do your homework for you?
lol

Easy, just be able to suck a golfball through a 100 foot hosepipe and the judges will reward in kind.

2. money to buy these hormones
3. base base base,,you gotta have somewhat of a foundation before you start hormonizing yourself
4. lots of free time and food
5. stable relashionship with a woman that can accept being second to lifting for the time being,,or simply stay single
looks like i meet all the requirements look out cutler :o...Now how would u determin superior response to hormones then just average response?.... i started lifting 8 years ago and started to do small cycles at 21 I'm 24 now and i have gone from 167 - 250 at 5'6 mind u ill admit I'm not ripped to the bone but i started out with a stocky build :-X

Gus looked pretty well exactly the same from 1999-2003. Then in 2004... :o

Gustavo is a great example...if you look at pics of him prior to his placing well, you'll see he has everything except conditioning. Size, shape, full musclebellies, structure, etc...just smooth.
I remember telling TP..If this guy (Gustavo) ever gets his conditioning down...he's going to be trouble for a lot of people...
Apparantly...he figured it out!
