....when you are a competitor.
I usually would dress in a suit and tie whenever I'd compete.
Better than looking like you are out of 'Central Clown College' like most competitors today.
Grimek, Park, Reeves, et al, always dressed like they were going to a job interview for contests.
lets clean ourselves up, fellows.

That's how it should be.
I may be wrong, but I believe Arnold made the same point.
-
Who wants to get pro-tan over a good suit :-\
-
You look like an indian car salesman who's proud of having a white woman.. without realizing she's butt ugly
that's the look we should strive for? ::)

I have already quoted him from an interview he did w while back with Tyler Dinwoody of , I think , MM.
"You know I have entertainment power, but even I can't sell this fucking shit to the networks.
Look at the average guy: they dress like buffoons, carry these filthy looking water jugs around, and smell like protein and god knows what else from 50 paces away..."
Arnold S interview
-
Who wants to get pro-tan over a good suit :-\
No biggie, really....and worth it, lemme tell you. Creates a much more powerful mindset, and sets you apart from ALL other competitors

Yes.
Don't be the best, Titus.
Be the ONLY.

Classic!

Classic!
I am tellin' ya, he hit the nail right on the head.
NONE of these buffoons heeded Arnie's words.
Why should they? They all know better than him, of course. ::)

Again, I may be wrong, but I think Dorian Yates took it personally. Said something along the lines of Arnold being out of touch with bbing....

I do recall that, and I like Dorian, but he was/is wrong.
'Specially since he was the top guy at the time, he should have taken the lead.
I never want toi here these guys complain this jazz ain't mainstream (not that they would)....you don't listen to Arnold S, you are a stupid, misbegotten misanthrope.

Get it?
Sure thing, Apu

Who cares how you look in the lobby of a show. When I do a show I am backstage on the floor with my feet up dreaming of the moment I can drink water. Winning the overall title is what matters not playing photo shoot in the lobby. Competitors like this fuel my fire. They are running around the lobby full of energy when I am thinking I am half dead here. You could have spent all that time doing more cardio or water depletion. P.S. if ESPN or NBC shows up Ill put on a cumber bun for ya. Before a show your feet should be up. Congrats on your six place though as you do look very sharp, lol....
-
Isn't that the guy who sold SAMI his new car? Or was it a box cutter?
-
What sets you apart is not the fifty dollar suit and the cheesy smile its winning the show that sets you apart from the others my friend.

Your woman, who incidentally is suffering a major case of saggy tits, looks very embarassed to be with you.

Joe:
Ordinarily, you come off as a very cool guy.
I could say that if you prepared correctly, you could have loads of energy and be "helf dead".
ESPN will never, ever ever cover your 'sport' again because of this kind of talk.
What other 'sport' necessatates that you be 'half dead'?
None of them, that's which one.
Sixth place?
At my best, it looks like I smoked you.
And muchly due to your shit attitude.
I must say, I am surprosed at your true colors. Your other posts made me think, 'wow, what a cool guy-refreshing for bb.'
Wrong
-

I won the show, and, like I said, I can't believe what a fucking asshole you have turned out to be.
As an NPC judge, I'd mark you lowing just on your unredeemable character.
-

Not my woman, someone who just wanted a photo with me, mysoginist
-
So as a judge you would mark a bodybuilder down based on his suit. WOW, that seems fair.
-

Just proving a point, regarding your character.
I just really can't believe you said these things. Kinda makes all the honorable things you said, and further, that site you erected a bunch of hogwash. See what I am saying?
-
Its nice to know as a judge if you saw a man or a woman show up to a show in a suit you would mark them higher because in some way you feel that makes them more intelligent. Flex Wheeler posed his first show in his underwar because he had no money and look what he did in the sport. You judging based on the way someone dresses is what is sad my friend. To me that is why bodybuilding is great some train Hit style some train all volume. Some train like Branch Warren while others like to train quit like Lee Priest. For me it is the diversity that makes the sport special. Some one shows up in a tank top playing head games while someone is covered head to toe quiet in the back. To each his own is what I say and their is no wrong or right way so calm down a little man its just a different view point is all.

And ya you would have smoked me onstage make you feel better. Its all good.

Not being funny, but do I have to explain that I was using this example to prove a bigger point about the generalized state of your dying sport?

Mmmm...you are back pedaling. I am very calm. You simply do not seem to be what you declare, and have already insulted someone who had supported you repeatedly.
My opinion is that the 'ugly head' of the stereotypical bb has been reared again. To each his own, fellow citizen.
Peace
-
Not back peddling you said as an NPC Judge you would make me down. What does a suit or an attitude have to do with muscularity, symmetry, definition and posing? So if someone disagrees with your opinion then they are wrong. I support you too but can't I have an opinion. I guess you just have it all figured out.
What year did you win the Mr. Illinois and was that and N.P.C show as I am sure you wont mind me looking that up..

Lookin good dude. 8)
BTW Is this the chic who said she hoped her baby die? :o ;D
-
ironjeo is right about the judging, it shouldnt ever be dependant on how you present yourself offstage
moose is right about the buffoon thing, but u wanna change that u gotta change their complete education
problem is most educated ppl dont go into bbing ;)

yeah look at what he did in the "sport" ::)

I do not believe, if you are able to train for abb show, that you haven't the money to pose in anything other than underwear.
Wheeler likely propagated such a story just to romantacized some fantasy background where he 'over came all the odds..."

He has the actual picture in his auto-biography. Its a good book. Flexability is the title.

You do look like an all night long-karaoke singer, here.
Yes, the bitch is fugly!! You should've charged her 20 bucks for that pic. Louie is right for doing that!!
You should get your facts straight, Moose. That Arnie interview was given to Peter McGough for a FLEX magazine issue from 1997, 2 months prior to the Olympia, that year. That interview caused an enraged Dorian Yates to get back at Arnold's comments on the following issue of the magazine, where he brutalized Arnold for his general view of today's bodybuilding.
But Arnie's comments hit a homerun on the athletes' heads, that year. EVERY SINGLE GUY on the press conference was using VERY WELL TAILORED suits (not this customized fantasy you were proudly wearing on that pic and call a 'suit'), including Dorian, who when asked by George Butler about being on the verge of beating Arnie's 7 time Olympia record (Yates was going for his 6th, that year) instantly replied: "Arnold who?" and continued "If he needs the adress of a good taylor, tell him I can refer a good one!". Everybody was stupified on that press conference. Earlier, on the FLEX reply interview, Dorian adressed That Arnold's comment regarding the lack of athletes wearing suits and designer clothes all around due to simply not finding their sizes, because designers simply don't taylor clothes to 300 lb people. And he went on saying that this precisely type of comment was an example of how much Arnold was long gone away from the sport. His golden years were far behind.
-
I didn't want this to go this way between me and Moosejay. He has taken such offense to my comments that he is not engaging me anymore. I am a younger man and to be honest I feel the jogging suits that the athletes wear (which are provided) at the Mr. O press conference were and are kinda cool. They decided to wear these so an impromptu posing session could take place to get the crowd going and make it kinda like a wrestling atmosphere. Bob Chick is an awesome MC and tries to get the athletes going. I will miss Mitz video's showing the Mr. O press conference. I remember Kamali and Chick talking it up to that famous wrestler. I give them props for trying something different trying to spark new interest. Todays kids would rather see Melvin Anthony in a Muscletech logo sweatsuit than a purple suit. TRUST ME.
I do agree when athletes go to guest pose or that judges on the panel should wear suits. I have attended night shows and have dressed up to look professional and represent myself in a positive way. I don't wear the skin tight shirts. I still feel though that the diversity in which people chose to dress is what makes going to a show cool, at least for me.
I respect Moosejay for all he has done in the sport and I respect his opinions. I just feel that if everyone wears a suit everyone would look the same. I didn't mean for it to get into I would have beat you onstage back in the day thing.

hammer time?
LMFAO!!!!
Why would you ruin nice clothes with Pro Tan and oil?
-
smooth moose!
-
Moose what was it like to bang Gilda Radner? Was she good in the sack or what? ;D
-
Mike, you got to admit that it looks kinda funny..wearing a suit whilst covered in poo tan.
-

Just a nasty thought, putting a suit on after pro-tanning for 3 days and not showering, etc.

on aside note iron joe is in new flex ,looks good,has a good paragraph written.speak on it joe.

Thanks njflex,
I am in this sport to have fun and achieve my goals. We all struggle and we all want to get better at what we do. That is really all I know. I love the sport of bodybuilding and I love to compete. To each his own I say because when it is all said and done the physique should do the talking if your a bodybuilder and the numbers should do the talking if your a power lifter. I know I didn't post my first post to get into a debate of who dresses better or who would have beat who in their primes. I just want to train and train hard and continue to improve. Thanks njflex for noticing my article as I am very proud of it.

Cool suit Dolemite, you look like a pimp.
-
Ironjoe, you're absolutely right: the jogging suits are the bomb! I love them. I prefer to see Dexter or Victor or Phil Heath wearing those very cool Jordan jumpsuits than a suit and tie that has NO BUSINESS in a bb show. For Christ sakes, it's not a wedding or a black & tie company party. It's a relax and enjoyable situation, so why not go on fashionable, confortable clothes, be them a pair of jeans, be them a cool jordan jumpsuit. One thing though: the ultra tight 2 sizes smaller t-shirts must go! Totally disgusting, especially with sweated armpits and specially extra disgusting to those idiots full of oil in their arms and delts.
-
What tie? All I see are ZCavarricci pants pulled up to the armpits practically giving you a camel toe, black shirt (probably UMEN) and polished black shoes.
Screams used car sales man.

Check out Dexter's or Stan McCarry's Jordan's sweatsuits. Complement them with an outstanding nike shox or a cool Nike's Lebron James sneaker and there you have it!
Now compare it with what our good mr. manners is advising, here. The way I see it, when you arrive at the venue of the bb show driving your car and see a guy dressed like 'mr. learn-how-to-dress' standing by the parking lot, you might as well throw your car keys to him and say: 'watch out while you park it. You scratch my car, I'll scratch your face!'

Everything I do is for utility's sake.
If you're wearing pro-tan, you're going to make a mess on your clothes.
Also, if wearing plastic to drop water in the last 24 hours, you're going to sweat.
And, if you're jacked on ECA or clen, or worse, lasix or DNP, you're going to be sweating.
And if you're going to be taking off clothes for posing, weigh-ins, etc, a suit is going to be cumbersome.
And, you're going to be in unfamiliar backstage areas where hangers might be scarce.
And for that time between pre-judging and night show, you want to be as comfy as possible.
For most people, a sweatsuit makes more practical sense than a suit. Suits look great, but for most of the trotting around that comes with a show, a sweatsuit or jump suit seems more practical.
