I've heard similar stories about Wayne, something along the lines of: the bodybuilders in the 90's were like circus animals and wayne was the ringleader with the whip :o
-
Dude responded well to hormones.... end of stupid.... Kevin " E true Hollywood Story" Levrone
-
I'd be suicidal too if I had a stalker like Earl hiding in trees outside my bedroom and sifting through my garbage twice a week.
-
I have read that he is an alcoholic before. Milos has said Levrone drank a bottle of Jack Daniels a day pre-contest.
What did the article say was the reason he was suicidal?
-
Wayne's.
Do you honestly think the average bodybuilder with a sub 100 IQ could organize a multi-year Mandalay Bay venue contract? If bodybuilders ran bodybuilding, there would be no bodybuilding. Having the skills to lift weights and eat food are a far cry from the skills (actual intelligence) required to organize great business ventures with all the logistics involved.
the words of a man who sells other people DVDs, has a million post on a message board, and often gives us his opinion of the ideal man.

Great bodybuilder, girl of a singer, even worse actor, whats next for him ;D

not to mention successful gym owner you fag

It all makes sense now. During the house tour part of the video, he shows his bar, and damn - let's just say that he could have gotten an entire college town drunk. I always wondered why a competitive bodybuilder would need so much booze in his house, but this seems to clear things up.
That's just another example of his ridiculous genetics that he could hit the sauce like that and still look like he did. I could drink one time and be visibly fatter and feel less muscular the very next day.

succesful ::)
benchthis = dumbass with moving out of the trailer park one day aspirations, then he to will be succesful.

Kevin never drank Jack Daniels

Milos seems to lie about a lot of things :-\

Wayne also probably did the best job ever of keeping the IFBB successful. Has anyone else ever matched his ability to do so or to organize successful competitions with good venues and everything in between? No? Then don't complain about him. Try walking a mile in his shoes first. Granted, he never had the greatest people skills but give him credit for the work he did. More than 99% of people in the world would not be able to handle the position he had. He did his job well. I empathize because I speak from a position of having held not only my own weight but the weight of others (complete morons, in my case, friends, in Wayne's case, some IFBB pros), and still doing a bloody damn good job of it but not getting the credit I deserve.
Hi Wayne

Maybe Milos is angry that Levrone looked 100x better than he did.

Milos got owned so badly at that show. Ronnie, Kev, Flex, Nasser, Dexter, Ruhl, just about everybody smoked him onstage. I think Shawn was at the show too but didnt compete.
-
hahahahaha, can you imagine a 165 pound Flex and this absolute mass monster sitting around talking bodybuilding, what a couple of BEASTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;D
-
None the less, Squad, he was a F-- BEAST. One of the best ever.

i know, i'm just kidding, Kevin was one of the greats for sure.
-
My list of favs:
70s - Arnold
80s - Platz
90s - Levrone
Of the mass monsters there are few who carried the mass so well as Levrone. And he kept his gut in check as well. And those delts and triceps as well as the shape and cuts of his legs. I'd rather NOT be a mass monster if I couldn't look like Levrone than BE a random mass monster.

Mike Francois was better than Kevin.

::)
You must been drunk when you wrote that. The only thing Mike had was "back" and "condition"

bullshit, Mike's legs, chest and back were all miles ahead of Kevins, all Levrone has was shoulders and triceps.
-
No way was Francois better than Levrone.

yes he was, you sound like another guy who has been hypnotized by the mass media to believe that black athletes and bb'ers are better and "prettier".
-
why are you talking like Mike Francois back is so great. its not that great really. Kevins back was better.
his legs might have been better than Kevins if even that...

bullshit, Mike's back destroyed Kevin's.

Mike owned Kevin period, if he hadnt got sick he would have been mr olympia, hes like Cutler but in condition and with seperation in his back, the only guy who i ever saw that had as much freakiness as coleman, Mike would not have beaten coleman at his best, neither would Jay but Mike would have beaten Jay if he kept going, his muscularity is just so much cleaner than Jays.
-

Agreed. Only 120 million people in this world could've done a better job.

Their response is – they thought that only thing they should be eating would be (like you said) – chicken, fish, steak, egg whites, potato, rice, oatmeal and vegetables! At that point I would give them one of my yearly journals (I kept precise diet journalssince 1987 with times and amounts of food I was eating for more than 70 shows thatI have entered). Only thing that was constant on those pages was total amount of calories,protein/carbs and fat, but food choices were different just about every day!They could not believe that I would eat pancakes, waffles, bread, diary products, nuts,different oils (olive, safflower, flax…), fruits or even gourmet meals ( you name it I had it, in low fat version of that meal), just weeks before the show!?My question to them (and all of you that might be surprised) is why not?I would allow myself to eat 500 grams of Protein, 500 grams of Carbohydrates and 60
grams of fat, which is total of about 4500 calories. So as long as I stay in those margins I would allow myself to enjoy whatever food I like
the most. If I estimate that my energy expenditure is more than 4600 calories daily why would I be afraid of eating pancakes/waffles or whatever else? My body is going to use those carbohydrates as energy just like it would from rice or potatoes. Our body has its physiological and metabolic needs for abundance of nutrients loaded with good calories.
Competitive bodybuilders have tremendous amount of muscle mass (muscle is very metabolically active tissue that consumes a lot of energy for its existence) and during their pre contest period they have enormous energy demands ( 2 daily workouts with additional aerobic activities). Good friend of mine –John Brown (multiple Mr. Universe winner and IFBB professional) would never even attempt to eat “diet meals”. He wouldeat his normal food (eggs, beacon, Cool Aid, French fries..) all the way up to a contest. He would just make sure he burns those calories during his grueling workouts.Thierry Pastel was the same. I saw him during European Tour eating everything he can
lay his hands on. Only, he would make sure that he has about 6 hours access to a localgym ( to do his usual daily workout). Dexter Jackson? This guy starts dieting 6 weeks out, never does cardio and trains only 3 times a week. I almost forgot – he can neve eat chicken or fish, so only protein he gets comes from steaks (in every meal). Shawn Ray, one of the best and most consistent IFBB pro champions NEVER measures his food or count calories yet, manages to always come in awesome shape.Flex Wheeler has a reputation to constantly cheat on his diet (hamburgers and French
Fries) and Kevin Levrone use exclusively fish, vegetables and about a litter of Jack Daniells all the way until the day of the contest (including back stage). Both champions almost won most prestigious bodybuilding title in more than one occasion! (Please don’ttry their diet next time you decide to compete).
So, to answer your question - I recommend counting calories and having specific ratio of all three macro nutrients (protein, carbohydrates and fat). However, I would not advise anyone to limit their food choices as dramatically as some of the competitors do. Seafood pasta, cabbage rolls, beef stir fry, strawberry waffles, chocolate rice pudding or anything else could be on your next contest diet menu. Just make sure that your total intake of particular nutrients is appropriate to what you want to accomplish.

very interesting.....wonder how truthful it really is??

Milos has been crafting fictitious stories about the 'life and times of Kevin' for more than a decade now! This is how Milos works!
Milos' whole sense of being is built around 'character assassinations' and 'health and fitness scams'....Wake up Meatheads, Milos is as dodgy as they come!
On the point regarding Kevin's christianity......Big 'effin' deal! Every x-roider finds the Lord in some shape or another. It is the only way these imbeciles come to accept, and respond to their inner demons!
God Bless

If anyone here can comment on ANYTHING Kevin Levrone it is getbig's Special 'Secret AGENT Man' Ed.
Ed, please speak upon Kevin Levrone. How about a few stories? Tell us about the Pro Tan incident the day before the 2000 Mr. O. Earl would like to hear that one.

I can confirm Milos's claims that Kevin ate nothing but fish and vegetables leading up to a show. I spent considerable time in his house prior to the 2001 Olympia and his refrigerator was completely empty except for frozen peas and broccoli. Not even a GH kit in sight! However, I cannot confirm the Jack Daniels portion of the claim, because I never saw Kevin drink anything but Smirnoff.
One of the reasons Kevin always came in great condition was because he didn't buy into the whole carbing up thing. Leading up to the 2000 Olympia (where many felt he brought a winning package), he continued to order swordfish and broccoli through room service. No cookies, jam, or marmalade.
I'll save the Pro-Tan story for the radio show. DOH!

why look full a week out, only to depleat and load back up again,, just to look like u did 5 days earlier.... makes perfect sence to me.. i drink every night for the last week upto a show, half a bottle of dry white wine, then full bottle show nite... most the uk lads do the same !

Looks like this is the end to the debate that he will be returning to the stage.
