I remember reading an article on this guy in Ironman or Muscle mag like 4 or 5 years ago :o. He has put on a ton of bulk since then 8).
-
lol Junior winner! Doesn't look junior to me!
-
when mayhem's board first when up in 2002, lou posted under the name of silverback.
pretty cool to now see him as a pro.
-
canada makes some good bodybuilders!
-
lol Junior winner! Doesn't look junior to me!
lol Novice competitor! Doesn't look like a novice bitch competitor to me!
And as for exposure, I already got that competing in Musclemania shows, i.e. TSN ESPN etc.. So lol no I was not competing at a novice show for exposure!.
-
..
huge triceps.
-
Lou Joseph is the man. He's had several training articles in magazines like M&F. He used to bodybuild years ago and was a pretty successful amateur, then took years off (I don't mean bulking, he actually just didn't exercise), and came back recently. He has a great physique.
-
Been following Lou for awhile, can't believe he won his pro status, glad he's reached his goal of becoming a pro....true peserverance, something to admire...my hats off to him.

One of the best developed craniums I've ever seen.

huge jaws are cool 8)
-
damn this guy will make a great pro. awesome sidechest like you said.
-
He took off for at least 2 or 3 years... maybe more. I will have to find the article and check up on it.
-
who cares?
Canadian "pros" never do anything in the IFBB never.
Those guys wouldn't make top 5 in any American bb pro qualifier, sorry let alone win.

bump

last time he did nationals was in '04
-
Yeah, he competed up to 1997, then quit bodybuilding for at least 4 years, then came back to do the '04 nationals.
-
Stavio, Thanks for the post up! You are pretty awesome yourself. Just stay focused and you'll be Canadian Champ soon.
I did eat a bit for a week after the show...no fucked up drugs though. lol But been back on the diet and weight is at 220lbs. In the tradition bodybuilding days I would just bulk up to crazy weight but now staying lean all year. Keeps you more healthy than being fat and easier to go into contests.
I can't tell you what the future holds for me in bodybuilding as far as placing but I did achieve the goal I set out and that was to turn pro. I think that's an achievement on it's own that no one can take away. I respect anyone that is pro in their chosen sport or hobby.
I did take time off training when I was 20 years old to concentrate on college and a career in computers...now I'm a real estate agent. When I was 25 I got back into it. To be honest I feel a lot better these days than when I was in my early 20s when I was at the bars binge drinking 2 or 3 times a week and eating fast food everyday.
The Canadians this year was a great show and got to meet a lot of great people. Thanks for the comments everyone!

Lou ,Great post !

Who's the guy to the left of him? He looks impressive too -- just not doing the side-chest properly.
-

good luck

canada makes some good bodybuilders!
NONONO
canada still make same exact people it made 20 years ago,,the diff is that canada now is what usa was for drugs during the early 90s,,that is why canada now is at its peak of bodybuilding talent,,exactly same thing happened in usa during the early 90s untill the us govermrnt devided to put a stop to it,,or atleast trying to
the canadian goverment dont give a shit about nothing,,they are hypocrats,,very easy to bribe,,prodcuts ship to canada by the 100s of thousands of dollars now days directly from europe mexico and asia
its not the the bodybuilders are better because they are not,,its that the drug use it at a peak in canada now days,,gh is still costly there and thats why you see more guys using aas and similar products,,but rest assure the canadian goverment dont give a fuck about nothing,,thus the guys are able to abuse and misuse under the bright blue skys of canada
and thats! my friend is the real reason behind it all,,
canada as of 2007 is major major profit for hormone suppliers,,from within and from the outside

dude has seriously good lines

umm..................ok

umm..................ok
no my friend,,what i say is that in 2007 canada is for bodybuilding what 1990 usa was back in the days
s t e r o i d heaven,,no not steroid land because they need europe for that,,but defenitrly steroid heaven alot safer than usa since canada goverment do not give a shit about whats going on within their borders since the arab terror groups love canada as much as they love france,,they wanna fuckin live there and attck usa from there,,canada goverment pay attention to steroids as much as they pay attention to terror,,its none existant!

gh15 is right about Canada not really caring about steroids.

How does that explain why guys in the USA/nationals are coming in with guts galore and the Canadians have basically the same muscle but no guts?

because here in Canada, the guys with guts and Gyno, we don't let them win. plain and simple. ;)
last few pro's have been less than Stellar i would say from USA.
not Terrible, but alot less outstanding than what we're used to.
Chris Cook (now a cage fighter probably)
Richard Jones (a quitter)
Desmond Miller (weird midsection + Gyno )
Lionel Brown (not impressive in any way)
Leo Ingram (rotten midsection and palumboism stage IV) :-X
Bill Willmore (seems to be moving up the ladder) but nothing worthy of winning a show.
Markus Haley ( his stomach contains an alien... ready to break-out)
Will Harris ( just finally broke into the top spots) Thanks to his trainer **guess who?
Omar Deckard ( hasn't competed all that much, but probably the same as Willmore, tough to win a show with his physique....
Apart from that, David Henry and Phil Heath were probably the most impressive rookies, but DH is a dickhead and he places low so...forget about that...
It ain't like the good ol days (prior to 2000)
where the up and comer's
were astounding
>DILLET
>LEVRONE
>SHAWN RAY
>FLEX WHEELER
>CHRIS CORMIER
>JAY CUTLER
>MELVIN ANTHONY
>TONY FREEMAN
>DARREM CHARLES
>DEXTER JACKSON
> all of which have made a big splash.
The next decade of bodybuilding, i fear is going to be crowded with GH guts and a bunch of ugly physiques.

Hey Lou, good job on your win at the canada's I was sitting behind scott abel and we were talking about how awesome you looked on stage, you have some serious muscle bellies, you were so round! It looked great. One question are you going to do any pro show anytime soon? I hope so. Good luck!
-
Iraclese, Glad you liked the show. As far as my plans on competing, I haven't really thought about it. I have some improvement to make before taking the stage. Here's a picture about 2 weeks out from the Canada's. I know for the pros there isn't room to come in smooth so will be analyzing the last prep a bit more with Scott to see what we could do to come in sharper.

Ok Here's a few. I feel like I need a bit of an introduction since most people in the USA have never heard of me.
-
Good to have you here Lou !
If you will be in the assistance at the montreal pro, I'll come to say hi
-
so that's what 7 grams a week and slin and a high sodium diet does for you huh? seen your cycle posted over on canadian juice monsters when you posted as lou joe
good work...glad to see you back as your last loss destroyed you for 2 years..stay with the vlassic prep guy scott abel he'll do you right! don't fk your back up either again your legs are already far behind...
you should do quite well in the pros ...like 16TH place tie in all the small shows!

Stop hating dude, you are clearly jealous of Lou's spectacular physique 8)

Stop hating dude, you are clearly jealous of Lou's spectacular physique 8)
actually i kind of agree with him on this one,,this is improved canadian frank taken one notch up,,but still arms dominate and totally totally make the uppoer torso look insignificant,,lack thickness of upper torse,,very average built for the pro level beside superb arms that i will give him
remember guys you dont do nothing if your other bodyparts dont match your arms,,no matter if you are heath or lou,,gotta bring a whole package to stage and that include thickness and wideness or the illusion of being wider than you are,,got to have very full wide thick chest,,got to have freaky detailed back with juicy lats no matter if they are high insertion or low gotta have the juicy lats,,in those pictures presented i see an improved frank but still only arms with torso that fit a state level competitor
gotta take it easy on arms,,same problem i see with many canadians,,arms are superb and rest of physiqe is regional level,,that is enough for placing `15 in a pro show but nothing more
-
I've never posted under the name Lou Joe or posted any cycles on any board. Thanks for trying to rip me a new one.
Anyways Stavios, I will be at the show. So hope to catch up with you.
You will never hear me claim I will place this or that, or how I'm going to change the sport of bodybuilding. I just like to train, diet down and do some shows.
-

Seriously, you look incredible! The only thing that needs improving is your upper pecs. That's it.
It's too bad that for the pros, your condition is "not ripped enough." I think you look ripped enough there to be a legitimate Mr. O contender.

Lou your physique is an inspiration. Awesome.

That's not correct. His arms overpower his chest, yes, but not his delts or his lats. I think you need to take a closer look, he's actually well proportioned save for his chest (and that's mostly his upper chest).

dont get me wrong here my friend,,this specific bodybuilder is phenominal,,he can wipe the floor dry with 90% of the amatuer levels around the world,,this is not an everyday gym rat we talking abouit here,,this is top of bodybuilding,,what i say here should not take even the slightest bit out of his level of physiqe,,he is at the top of the game,,but when you get in the pros it is a whole diff game a whollllle diff game
in an everyday gym atmosphere and amatuer level contest this is a straight out freak,,and freaks are not easy to find,,but im talkin here pro level competition where being a freak is not enough

If the judges would take a second to pull their heads out of they're asses, he would wipe the floor with about 90% of the pros as well. Take Ruhl for example.........talk about someone who totally ruined themselves :-\

Lou has an amazing physique, just needs to thicken up his chest, and develop his hams and glutes some more.
