hahahahahaha, ok Dave. ::)
5'11" @ 235??
ok, so how is my 5'7" @ 240 @ 5% bodyfat "small" as you so often say??!!! riddle me that, squadfather!??!?!
hahahahahaa, he'd be on the Olympia stage with those dimensions, let's get real here for a minute, onstage he's 5'7" 215.
He is a big dude.... is there any reason for him to totally fabricate his measurements?
got to say he looks way better then i imagined.

what do you think of that gut though?i think because of it i believe he's 220 on stage.
what do you think of that gut though?
it's terrible actually.
is the gut really THAT bad other than in the pic onstage where im completely relaxed and exhaling?? i mean, really?
i think because of it i believe he's 220 on stage.
thing is if he gets it under control, and brings his arms up.... he would look great.

not in the first 2 shots but the last one it is. hey you know what you need to do, and you seem pretty humble so you got my respect.
im working on it. this bodybuilding thing isnt as easy as it looks! lol!
the gut's not too bad in these shots, right?

plus you look better the 99% of the board.
thanks bro. ive been at this a loooong time. i know whats up. my genetics are far from great and i make the most with what ive been given.
Wow, a normal guy. Are you on the right board?
im working on it. this bodybuilding thing isnt as easy as it looks! lol!
the gut's not too bad in these shots, right?
i think im lost. maybe i shoulda made a left turn at musclemayhem and then cut down the backroad to professional muscle, but i ended up here by accident.
hahahahahaha, ok Dave. ::)
what in the world would be my motivation for making this shit up??
To increase the sale of Raising the Bar 2? ;D
I competed next to Dave and he's a freakin big dude. As far as his arms go they look fine to me they just don't have those Darrem or Ronnie type peaks on them. More like Levrones.
Good physique there man.
im working on it. this bodybuilding thing isnt as easy as it looks! lol!

lol!!! oh, please. you saw "raising the bar 1". you know darned well i dont do this for the money. you saw that i have my own business that more than pays the bills. the whole "raising the bar thing" is much more a personal project for my brother and i. if others like it, thats great. if not, thats great too.
by the way, thanks for your support of the first dvd, bro. you will certainly like the 2nd installment.
buffd, thanks so much for the nice comments, bro. this is weird because just last night i was on a site called "professional muscle" and i happened upon a thread in the forum section. it was written by you just after the prejudging of the north americans and you were ripping me apart!!! lol! alot of others in support of you were ripping me apart too. i exited out of the site and tried to forget i ever saw it. lol! its all good, though. you do have a great physique and, looking at the pics, i could DEFINITELY see you in the top 5 over some of the others that were in the top 5. im sure you will be there this year!!....good luck in your training.,,,dave
THANKS!!! there are more shots in the gallery section. www.davepulcinella.com. i dont know why its so hard to believe that i weigh 220 onstage. is that such an outlandish claim that squatfarter actually started a thread about it!??!?!
Epic synthol lips in that one shot!
Dave,
IMO, you have definitely got it goin' on! Geez, do u realize that we have been doing this bb thing for, OMG.....at least 20 years now? Anyway, I am planning a trip home this summer. Dinner, k? My treat. ;)
Kim
Well you know how it is when you feel you should of done better. I think you have alot of size but shape wise I do think there are things you need to work. Ofcourse I think I need to work on things as well so I'm not saying I'm perfect. You got the size and conditioning down but at that show your shape was off imo. The pics posted here it looks alot better. I certainly didn't mean anything personal by what I said. This year I'll stay away from the computer right after a show LOL.
uuuuum, more like coming up on 30 years for me. i started hitting the weights when i was 12, and im 42 this year!! CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT SHIT!!?? lol! anyway, yes lets get together, babe. love to! we missed the opportunity 2 christmas's ago.
hahahahahaha, ok Dave. ::)
i saw him wiegh in in 2004 at 198 on the dot and he was much bigger last time i saw him in person i wouldn;t be suprise dif he was 240 at some point in the past year
Dave is a hell of a guy and always comes in shape to a show if your gonna tear some one apart go tear adonis a new asshole
I think if anything, Dave is 5'8 and not 5'7. Maybe even 5'9. It doesn't seem significant, but 1.5 inches in height is actually a big thing. Being 5'8 and 240 would be like being 5'7 and 230 or maybe even lower. Like I said, I think Dave is taller than he says he is. Not to say he is lying, but he may just be mistaken.
I will probably come home to MD/DE for my birthday in August. Until then, if you ever decide to take a trip down to Florida, you can always stay/hang out with me. ;) Hey, what are friends for?Kim, whereabouts in FLA?

Kim
Someone say party in Florida?!!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!
yo, vinnie. wassup, bro!!!?!? you were looking huge at the arnold! i really hope you win the masters nats so i dont have to deal with your ass at the north americans!!!..lol!! hey, post that pic of us you took!! i wanna see how small i was!
Bodybuilders lie about a lot of things - sometimes weight, sometimes height (either taller or shorter). In reality, both Dexter and Branch are under 5'7.
agreed, but i dont think this is important enough to fabricate numbers. does it make me a better person? will it earn me more money? will i get more respect, love,friends etc.....no. so, if i said i was 5'7" its truly because i think i am. on that note, im gonna have some one measure me right now!! lol!!
Dave, if your 5'7" then that means i'm 5'7"........uhhhh nooo........lol
I've seen Dave in competition & he's one big mofo. North American masters competitors, be warned: you have your competition cut out for you.

Another thing is that there is a difference between a good 5'7 and a bad 5'7. I am a good 5'9 which means that with my good posture I am sometimes almost at eye level with people who are a piss poor 6'0 (terrible slouching posture). Look at Bob Paris - that is a good 6'0 and he towers over guys who in reality are not much shorter. I know plenty of 5'10 guys who are my height in pictures whether barefoot or in shoes. If you are 5'7, you are a good 5'7 because you look a lot longer than other 5'7 guys.
Kim, whereabouts in FLA?
I just purchased my first house in Rockledge. So, should I plan a party or what? ;)right near Melbourne, right?
Let me know who, when, how, what & I already know why.
Kim
right near Melbourne, right?
Yep....so when is the party? ;)hahahaha, i wish, i've got relatives down there, nice area, Melbourne, Rockledge, Cocoa Beach, Indialantic.

I agree.....great place to settle down. Anyway, it's like 11:24pm & I am falling asleep at my keyboard. I am such a wimp! So, when is the party? Everyone from GETBIG is invited.
Kim
me and squadfather can have a drunken posedown!!!
With the winner getting Kim! Or would Jenn not like that, Dave? ;D
I know everyone's height to the nearest 16th of an inch. ;D
Actually, this is where I remember reading it once:
http://www.bodybuildingpro.com/2005npcjuniornationalchampionshipsdvd.html
Also, proportionally you look 5'8 or 5'9, and not 5'7.
I just purchased my first house in Rockledge. So, should I plan a party or what? ;)You are about 1 hour from me. My mom used to live in Sebastian. :D
