See that, he's using a machine a normal man would use two arms for and only doing it with one arm!

Several years ago, Craig competed at a pro show in Niagra Falls which I believe was still called the Toronto Pro. The promoter, whose name escapes me is a real dick. You guys will know who he is as he constantly has his head up Paul Dillett's ass all the time. The guy's wife actually started an argument with me re my seating. She claimed that "orchestra" seats meant somewhere on the side balcony and not in front.
Anyway, Greg Kovacs competed and could not even walk. During the meetings and at pre-judging, he spent the entire time lying on the floor in a condition that made the other competitors quite concerned. We asked that an EMS crew be on hand but the promoter refused. Kovacs seriously couldn't even walk and I am not sure he made it through the night show. He was a complete abomination and a true poster child for much of what is wrong with bodybuilding.
I will say this, his wife never left his side.

Exactly. That is the result of taking drug meausres to extreme extremes. His 3 years of glory in 1998 - 2000 were very short lived. He now is divrced from his wife and living in St.Catherines with major stage 3 palomboism and he doesn't even train. He should be worried about his health.

Fuck Kovacs,
go for,
RUUUUUUUUUUHL!!!!!!!

I like how he sometimes wears glasses so he can look more like Nasser....

Whether it be bodybuilding or anything in life, Modeling yourself after another successful person in your field is the BEST way to
be successful.

what became of Kovacs?????

got married maybe? wives are always tell their husbands to stop the drug abused, go figure. ;D

was he living the dream or the dream was living him?

True, Greg was not cut out to be a champion bodybuilder, but his sheer size was something at which to marvel. He was BIG. Dude used to come 'round the MuscleMag offices in the mid-90s and hang in the lunch room with myself and Paul Gardiner. He would be at or near 400 pounds and GIGANTIC. The several steps to the second floor would have the big man winded, big time. He was always friendly, though, and totally into the lifetstyle.
In my opinion, Paul Gardiner owes Greg and Bob Kennedy endless gratitude for what they helped him achieve with MuscleTech. I mean, the guy was in his early 20s and working in a MuscleMag store, and all he had was a dream to become wealthy in the EAS way. If it were not for Mr. Kennedy's generosity allowing all those ads and advertorials into the magazine, and Kovacs' freakish size and (then) mystery to sell the product, where would Paul be?
I don't know the arrangements between these men, but I think Greg and Bob deserve compensation in the millions.
Just my opinion.

Excellent role model.

Just an update: Since I began using Greg Kovacs as the model for my lifestyle, I have gained twenty pounds, most of it muscle. I'm also eating like a bastard and spending my fair share of time sitting on the toilet. Can't wait for tonights workout.

What MuscleTech did to Kovacs is beyond description. They got this kid in his twenties, ruined his health with massive doses of somatostatin-C, insulin, aminoglutethimide and sauce, used his monster size to peddle their snake oils with epic success, and then when it became clear that Kovacs' genetics wouldn't allow him to win pro shows, they discarded him in the metaphorical toilet bowl like a used piece of toilet tissue.
And I agree with you that Paul Gardiner is the worst scumbag to ever walk the Earth. In civilized societies, like those of Europe, he would have been charged a long time ago with false advertisement, misrepresentation of scientific data and the use of controlled compounds by the poster boys under his contract, and sentenced to at least 10 years in jail without the possibility of parole. Gardiner followed Bill Phillips strategy to a T, and became immensely rich essentially by lie and deceit.

I'm not sure about the first paragraph--no-one forced Kovacs to juice--but the second paragraph is dead-on.

But Kovacs juiced expecting that he would either become a champion bodybuilder or that, if that failed, that MuscleTech would take care of him and make him rich. You know, give Kovacs 5% of the profits they owe exclusively to Kovacs's advertising their products. No other bodybuilder, not even a Mr.Olympia, would have lauched MuscleTech's products with the success that Kovacs did. It was Kovacs' abnormal size that made the original CellTech become such a huge success. What angers me is that MuscleTech didn't give Kovacs back even 1% of the money they made off him. They know they owe Kovacs everything. They know he probably has medical problems now that resulted from all the drugs he took to look huge to sell MuscleTech products, and they simply don't care. Kovacs should have now a few million dollars for first making MuscleTech a success in the first place, and second as compensation for crippling his health and likely shortening his life to accomplish that.

Kovacs surely would've been juicing his life away with or without muscletech
-
Why did the drugs impact Kovacs so much harder than they affected Coleman, Ruhl, Cutler, etc?
Was he using more? Using different substances? What was it?

If by harder you mean "he got bigger than all those guys", then the explanation is genetics. He had epic genetics for size&strengh, with his incredibly thick bones and muscle fiber density, but he had shitty genetics for bodybuilding because his large frame meant his joints were also big, making his muscles seem small in comparison, and it also meant his hips were very wide, giving him a huge waistline. Compound this with the fact that his muscles were square, and you have a bodybuilding disaster. He was the antithesis of Flex Wheeler.

Thank you. I just meant why Palumboism seems to have struck him so much sooner and harder than the other guys. Your explanation goes a long way, but it doesn't explain it all. Look at his face: my great-grandfather looks younger and he died in 1950!
