Dave Palumbo knows how to 'dial in' his athletes. As a trainer/guru, no one comes close to Jumbo!
Look, i respect both The Chad and Haney's abilities, however, they have nothing on Palumbo!
Dave is personable and tactile. He has walked the walk. He has been on stage and understands the processes and procedures of what is a very fickle industry.
Palumbo is now working his magic with Toney Freeman. The transformation is indeed incredible!
Keep up your great work Dave. And yes, you are one of the brightest and most knowlegable practitioners in this very 'sordid and cut-throat business' they call Professional Bodybuilding!

He was funny on Conan O'Brian.

Dave is a brilliant man. He was training to be a doctor. His knowledge of bio mechanics and exercise physiology is amazing.
Dave dropped out of his medical degree to pursue his dream of bodybuilding. He wasn't going to waste his time in lectures and doing boring assignments and exams. The gym was his training ground.
Yes, Dave is one of brightest! He got a PHD from the 'school of hard knocks'. He majored in 'iron' and then went on to achieve a professorship in 'sport science nutrition' from the 'university of life'.

he should of stuck with being a doctor ::)
He looks like a cartoon character now
-
The stuffy and pretentious world of university was not Dave's bag. He preferred the rough and tumble of the gym.
Dave would have made a brilliant MD. He has an analytical mind and is a conceptual thinker. However, bodybuilding was his passion, a love affair if you will. Medicine was a just a short fling, a one night stand.
Who knows where Dave would be today if he did graduate as a doctor.

hank,
I saw the dynamic between you and him the other night at the show.
you didn't look amused.

Hi, Dave.

Tactful??

sarcasm runs deep in this thread

Dave is an idiot who took so much steroids that he now thinks he's an expert. He's disgusting and not someone that I'd ever take advice from. All of these gurus are a fucking joke. Who has Charles Glass ever trained into a champ?

actually it was the GH and insulin that he overdid. he'd look pretty good if he had just stuck with the anabolic steroids

Exercise physiology and bio mechanics are completely different areas of study than that of a medical doctor-and Palumbo was never even CLOSE to becoming a doctor.
I mean why do you think that loser was selling FAKE GH???? To supplement the shitty income he has as the resident stooge at MD......
-
The Chad is probably still the best guru out there. Glass has gotta be or close to the top trainer.
-
'the rough and tumble of the gym'
That line alone is worth the thread.
-
Palumbo turned his back on his medical studies. Sure he had a brilliant medical mind, however, bodybuilding was where his heart laid.
Palumbo made a courageous stand when he decided to flush his medical studies down the toilet. Many thought he was crazy. Many could not understand why he would sellout his dream of becoming a doctor for the 'sleazy and corrupt sport' that is Professional Bodybuilding.
Well, it looks like Palumbo has had the last laugh. He is more successful than your average GP and has a huge wealth and fan base to prove it!
So much for the claim that education is the key to success!
-
What's this?
Is Hank Wood actually giving praise and not being derogatory? :o
Anybody know if this is truly a HW first?!?!
-
Palumbo had the balls to walk away from the trappings of the medical fraternity. Yes, he decided to return to his roots...the gym.
Palumbo is more 'street' than many think.
Palumbo is not going to let anyone forget that he 'could' have been a doctor. For the rest of his life he will be telling anyone who will listen that he dropped out of 'medicine' to pursue 'bodybuiliding'.
-
Glad to see you're out of time out. ;D

Funny thread. Is Hank Wood an alias for Vince Basile? The writing style is very similar ;).

Palumbo does not want anyone to forget that he actually began studying medicine. He is incredibly proud of this achievment albeit he dropped-out by the second year.
Look Palumbo had bigger dreams than simply being a doctor. He wanted to make his mark in the world of Professional Bodybuilding.
Yes, the world lost a potentially brilliant doctor but gained an equally impressive bodybuilder/drug guru.
-
Despite what many people think, Palumbo is not a registered doctor. He is a drug guru though. He learnt his craft from the street not from the ivory bastions of a stuffy university.
Palumbo ditched the medical books and learnt his craft of 'chemical enhancement' the 'real way'. He liased with the gym-dealing-meatheads and honed his craft from reading the relevant internet sites.
Palumbo made a smart move by dropping out of his medical degree.

Chimps, what's the name of that film?

The Princess Bride.

Palumbo did not even complete his second year at medical school and yet still garnered enough knowledge to now act as an unsanctioned drug guru.
Got give the guy his props. He officially has no formal medical training yet dispenses medical knowledge like he is a Harvard Professor.
Go Dave. You are bold and brave and sound like you know what you are talking about!
