Title: LEE what is holding you back to write a book what really goes on in the IFBB?
Post by: Stark on May 23, 2007, 12:42:14 PM
Mod this it a legit question and Bodybuilding releated, you don't need to just merge it with another unrelated thread.
I don't want this to just disapear and mixed up with another thread, so leave it were it is please.

Lee Question:
You are an outspoken person and since you have retired couldn't you write a book about what really goes on with the IFBB all the drama we only speculate?
Like the book Muscle but you have of course a much better understanding than Jon Hotten what is going on with the Pro's and such.

I for once loved Muscle by Jon Hotten, but the inside story of an Pro like you would fucking rock.

i agreed on the other thread, but thinking about it more lee would make alot of enemies depending on what he wrote.

if he really wrote about what we all want to really know he would have to change everyones names.

i.e. jaw gutler
twig barren
the snitch
the mind
etc

sort of like the deadpool

Lee, I'm pretty sure I suggested this to you a couple of years ago and if memory serves you were contemplating it then. :D

I still think you'd have a hard time really putting the squeeze on any of the 'names', particularly those representing the IFBB. It would have to be a bit like what T-Nation did a few years back, and look how accurate all that crap turned out. ::)

I know that it is hard to get a major publishing house to take on a project like this, unless it was a mainstream celeb like Arnold. BUt, pros like Flex Wheeler ( Flex Appeal) and Bob Paris (Gorilla Suit) have written and published books on their life in bodybuilding. A lot of media interest and hype has been made over the steroids in sports issue.
I think it would be acceptable and even advisable to get an experienced writter or journalist (like Ron Harris or John Ramano) to help insure the book will be a success.

One thing you could do Lee, is to compete in an IFBB pro show, CLEAN and then file a law suit on the grouds they failed to enforce their own drug testing rules. John Ramano come up with this idea  and felt FLEX Wheeler might do it in the Olympia his last year, but, he never did. Having said that, my gut feeling is "why bother??".

If you do retire now Lee, you leave with as one of the greats and your name intact.
Unless you can make some decent $$$ from a book , why not just walk away and move on the greener pastures.
I wish you well, no matter what you do.

I GOT A FEW GOOD STORIES ABOUT BEN FROM A FORMER MR OLYMPIA :)

I wonder if Lee's referring to those rumours that pictures exist of Ben Weider in drag ;D. I bet Lee's heard loads of stories about Arnold's exploits from the 60's & 70's, but as Arnold is still a very influential person, he probably can't tell those.

SERGIO!!!!

What if he wrote a book primarily around Steroid abouse in and around Pro Bodybuilding?

I think adding in the dirty laundry and crazy antics along with all the drug info, would sell.
Having said that, I doubt Lee will actually write and publish such a book. No question as to if he could do it, that would very possible ,if and only if he really had a strong desire to complete the process.
I could be wrong, but, in my humble opinion, Lee just sounds frustrated with the whole sport and is blowing off steam on line. If Lee did a write this book, it would be a lot more credible than one from Titus, that is for sure, even if Titus was 100% honest,he wouldn't appear honest  :o

Ya know, down deep, while I don't care for the extreme drug use , I do kinda like the fact that bodybuilding is a smaller, and crazy kind of sport. Makes things interesting if ya ask me.  ;)

It's common sense that a book like this would sell well, even if BBing remains a fringe 'sport' (pastime) to the majority. But if it promises to deliver and is just another bio/recap it'll tank.

It's all there for you mate - Confessions of a Priest, as said - but you REALLY have to lift the lid on all the dirt, lies and B.S. Anything less will be severely criticised.

Freedom of Speech!

Hah, you're crazy if you think that applies in your country particularly.

Sure, you're free to say stuff, but you're also bound to then get lawyer repercussions

I don't know if he's referring to DeShay but I'm 100% sure he's referring to FleX Wheeler as the guy.  Because I heard that same story back in the day when I gave a shit.

Here's a free preview of chapter 1 from Lee's unreleased book:

CHAPTER 1

DRUGS

DRUGS ARE A NECESSARY PART OF BBING BECAUSE THEY GIVE YOU MUSCLES THAT YOU WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO GET WITHOUT THEM. I AM A BLESSED INDIVIDUAL BECAUSE I HAVE GOOD GENES AND RESPOND TO DRUGS WELL. BUT THERE ARE EXCEPTIONAL PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT STILL LOOK LIKE SHIT EVEN WHEN THEY TAKE A SHITLOAD.

BILLYGUNS IS SOME DELUSIONAL KID ON AN INTERNET FORUM NAMED GETBIG. HE SUCKS EVEN AFTER INJECTING TEST AND GH. JUST GOES TO SHOW THAT SHIT GENES GET YA NOWHERE.

If you want more, then you'll have to wait until the release date.

I wouldn't have minded me some DeShay while she was still with us. I've heard stories of her being such a bitch to one person and cool to others....but having never met her I couldn't say for myself. I remember the first time I saw her in a magazine, in the NPC section of FLEX I think it was....I was like "yummy!"

He would be lucky to sell a dozen copies of the book if it were to ever come out.

I'd personally be interested to read his stories on the bodybuilding 'politics' in Australia.
