<bump for a pretty good look into the day to day life of a bodybuilder (lol except the "still living at home with mommy part")>
-
Are you telling me that "A day in the life of Evan Centopani" has no injecting "parts" and swallowing orals?
-
Mike, thanks for posting up these videos!
Im a big fan of Centaponi. Met a few times. He is a great guy.
-
I hope it's just a hobby to them because they are not building good or nice looking physiques... why do they look so bloated?

He's offseason and eating alot of food. He can only digest so fast. Put tape around his stomach and its probably no bigger than 35" which is what alot of guys have the day of a show unfortunately. Give him 2-3 years and he'll be top tier.
-
i used to be a fa of centaqponi but in that video he is pissing me off.. just the way he is explaining things..idk.. maybe ill come back later and re watch... now i look at it and i just dont see this dude adding anymore muscle to his frame.. idk he needs to stop wearing the tight t shirts tht make him feel big.. guys wear those xxxl tanks for a reason evan it makes you feel small ! keeps you motivated
-
Fucker's as big as a house, massive arms. :o
Probably a good idea for him to stay at home, saves up money for drugs and food. ;)
-
Nice to see MD copying FLEX yet again
-
do u think his parents have any idea the kinda drugs their son is hording in their house?
-
He cut off that truck on the highway while using his mobile phone >:(
Overall strong guy and great physique
Why doesn't he just use a shaker for that shake instead of screwing with that empty powerade bottle, he is a pro right?

Probably a habit. Maybe he is too cheap to buy a shaker cup.

Why these guys in the interviews just don't own up to the anabolics is beyond me....oh, there's the legal ramifications, but it's not as if we think the guy's a "natural'...I wonder if his Father's thought of the whole family being dragged away by the cops for having illegal drugs in the house?
...get your own place, Evan.

It goes to show that just because someone is an IFBB Pro with a couple of sponsors doesn't mean jak-shit.
I know MD doesn't pay him more than 10K/year for his likeness and ghost-written column and Universal probably pays him less if not anything except free room/board for conventions and free supplements.

Seriously?? That's all he makes from his sponsors?
I faintly remember Evan commenting on having a degree from Fairfield University, and was working as an insurance adjustor when he turned pro. Why stop working a real job?
-
STRONG bastard and looks awesome in that clip as well, funny thing is he says "i'm not very strong on the bench press so for me 405 for 6 reps is pretty good", that's pretty goddamn strong for ANYONE.

A "real job" requires time. Usualy lots of it during the week. To play at the level he intends on playing at with a focus on growing bigger and better that thingy thing..that...that jobby job will only hinder those possible gains.
How els could he prepare all of that food, shop for that food, sleep 8-10hours at night awaking for a casein shake with liquid eggs and amino cocktail to nap 2-3 hours a day to book spotters and training partners 5-6 days a week? On top of that stay shaven from torso to toe and get a tan? Pfft. That sounds like a bodybuilder's full time J-O-B to me.
Most top level and pro bodybuilders are content living in poverty and low income for as long as they can eat and sleep and train.

QO I have seen Evan bench and he is ultra strict in form. I mean I never see anyone use such precise form ever.
Golds New Haven is the best gym around this area btw ;)

Where's the video where Evan slaps the kid who bags his groceries incorrectly, just weeks before the NY Pro he guaranteed he'd win?

No, I was alluding to Ben Smith, who manhandled a grocery clerk and gloated en route to ... well I don't remember where he finished.

Its going to be a good contest, now that Musclecenter posted the names of the competitors. Evan has his work cut out for him to place in the top 5.
Ruhl, Silvio, James, Charles, Henry (if he was 5'9 he would have the best physique in the world), Hadar, Centopani and whoever else jumps in.

the way the ifbb works, evan has to be undoubtedly completely 150% better than those guys in order to place ahead of them.

Should be interesting to see how Evan looks after this layoff from competing. One thing is for sure he is gonna have at least half the auditorium cheerin for him.

I havent been to golds in a few weeks, and I havent seen him on stage, so until he is compared to Silvio and Dennis it's hard to say.

Where you from bigdumbbell?

you should go snap some photos :)
-
he has great potential. his chest looked shallow in recent pics, but he's still 2 weeks from the first show in what should be a 10 or 12 year pro career. Plenty of time.

I'll take soem photos from my seat in the 8th row ;)
Besides Evan usually is covered up when I see him train lately

seems like one of the genuine nice guys in the business from watching the last lifestyle clip, seems like the kind of guy you root for to do well.

You just answered your own question. Nobody wants to get in trouble with the law.

Right on the money as usual, Block. I respect the hell out of these guys who undertake bodybuilding full-time; I could never shelve my personal life and give up a professional career in the name of getting huge. These guys don't (or choose not to) have foresight to realize they probably aren't going to make much money out of bodybuilding in the long run. They are wasting their best income-earning years trying to build up their bodies. Most guys who do actually have the ability to make good money in pro BBing squander it anyway. Jay Cutler is the one guy who really seems to understand how to maximize bodybuilding financially. He's always guest posing, making appearances, putting out a million training DVDs, getting new sponsorships, etc.
There's only one Arnold, and he left bodybuilding almost 30 years ago. Arnold made bodybuilding work for him; most bodybuilders today seem to be working for almost nothing.

He also has a functioning brain; I think this kid has a future.

Much appreciated.

Nice to see MD copying FLEX yet again
MD is now completely in the toilet. Flex and MMI are getting better while MD is getting worse. Blechman screwed the pooch by firing Dave and John. They may be misfits and convicted felons, but they knew how to provide content. Unfortunately, they don't have the resources to do anything significant now and MD can't replace their content. I still have no idea who Robbie Durand is and what he has to do with bodybuilding.

You're spot on as well.
I don't count G4P and drug dealing as the way to make a living being a bodybuilder. I would even respect the top level bodybuilders if they worked even part-time in the 20-25hr/week range. That would be something at least. The could still eat, sleep and train as they could and still have a trickle of income comming in. Most of them aren't smart enough or they are just too lazy to market and promote themselves.
Take Mike Liberatore. Smart guy. Has a job. Just turned pro. Now he is focusing on getting as many guest-posing(s) as he can and putting himself out there as a contest-prep consultant to many of the local amateurs in the Chicagoland scene and charging them accordingly.
Most pro's don't even do that. Majority of them trick themselves, hustle fag got s, sling pills and mooch of dumb naive women to get keep them in a positive nitrogen balance throughout the day and whatever their gym dues cost.

Most = wrong. You're describing the bottom of the barrel, the one you have 'access' to
Epic mid 1990's- early 2000 generalization. over-negative as usual.
