Title: Danny Hester at 45 ~ what does GB think of him?
Post by: dyslexic on January 07, 2014, 02:34:41 AM
Seems like a good enough guy with good genetics. Definitely NOT overdone.... his physique reminds me of that lifetime natty from Hawaii (can't think of his name but he's been around forever)





Looks like the natties...

Shoulders seem a bit narrow, looks short too but overall nice physique for a 45yr old.

I met Danny thru a friend in the mid-nineties when he was doing the EAS gig, a very down to earth cool dude. He had the smallest waist/hip structure I had ever seen on a bodybuilder with a decent amount of muscle. He now looks incredible for 45 or any age. How well will he do as a pro? I think the top 212 guys will overwhelm him with size.

Met Danny way back in 92-93.  Saw him on a daily basis for years. Good dude. I must say he has always had a marginal work ethic in the gym. Just sort of strolled through his workouts. Very strong for a little guy.  

In 20+ years I have never seen him out of shape. Good looking guy. The girls liked him- as did the boys. A real 5'5" so he had size issues that would have caused him problems in the IFBB, even if he had turned pro years ago. Exceptional balance. No weak points.

In the last 8-10 years he has actually made some money from his bodybuilding. He works with Icarian with equipment design and has a few items selling on TV via infomercial.

Solid cat, IMO.

agreed. I've always liked his build. Agree w his workouts but he looks great anyway. Strolling thru is a great way to explain it but who know. Maybe internally he's pushing hard but what's it matter cuz he has one hell of a physique which is way more impressive in person than in pix or YouTube. His small joints and incredibly full muscle bellies pop

natural just takes longer, takes you till age 45 to peak.

you know, some 20 years after the fact when natural test production goes to shit.

youth fountain, solid big eating, repping 400 for reps, making it happen

http://musclemania.com/

I remember him from 1991 when he won the L.A. championship (middleweight class). And he and Vinny Galanti were on the cover of the one issue of Muscle Media I bought in 1996. That where I read about and bought a can of EAS' Phoshagen HP. Loading with that for the first time, I put on 7 pounds in a week and 12 pounds in 21/2 weeks.

But, it's taken him over 20 years to get a pro card? Talk about perseverance!!!

I mean, Skip La Cour claims the same shit. I never said I believed it. I have yet to meet a "natural" bodybuilder and I've been doing this since I was 15.

You guys get so worked up.

I spend a lot of my day pointing out all of the obvious flaws of bodybuilders. It's part of my job.

haha. Funny part is your gettin all worked up over a guys complexion=) I don't know. He's nowhere near that dark in person. He's not Casper looking but its not like he walks around looking like either. I don't think he's that naturally dark but then again I'm not gay so I don't stand around anal lyzing him either.

if you see him soon ask him how he feels about troy alves retiring

I will be honest there has been hardly any of it on the news over here. Almost like there is a media cover up- cos if the people knew he retired they would take to the streets..........

When Martin Luther King wrote I had a dream the original line went 'I have a dream that one day troy alves will announce he will never retire'......... they changed that for his other speech.

I've taken troys retirement badly, but who is behind it? Mossad? The Nation of Islam? The Illuminati? The Rothschilds???? someone, somewhere knows something. Why has it all gone quiet????

yeah. Some greats would train there on occasion. Saw flex all the time. Serge. N u r right lots of women. But never had the same work ethic. Now its just a real piece of shit. Some fitness place. I would train mostly at Venice but remember back then a golds membership meant travel pass so u could train at any golds. I would occ train in Redondo if I couldn't make the trip up to Venice. I used to work for Jerry McCall up north at the San Jose golds chains back in the day. Those were n still r some of the best equipped gyms anywhere. Dare I say even more so than the Mecca.

Kick ass gym(s). Some of the Nor Cal Golds were some of the very first Gold's franchises.  I believe Scott Wilson might have been connected with Jerry and his Gold's Trained at the big warehouse San Jose Golds several times. I don't remember the street. Trained at Steve O'Brien's Gold's in Walnut Creek for years.  Good times indeed.

The squat cycle is clearly helping my DL's so I'll run it right to the end along with my Deadlift cycle.

Funny story. I first meet Scott Wilson when he was training with Casey Viator. I was training with Don Ross (RIP Ripper) and Wilson and Viator were training. Viator was huge- Scott Wilson was bigger.  Very wide indeed. Crazy forearms, even compared to Viator. Lots and lots of volume. 25+ sets for back. 25 sets for shoulders etc.  Probably 1982.

Ok. Wife made me stop at coffee bean now I can post without running over pedestrians. Scott Wilson was one of the widest guys if ever met. Really nice too. Had forearms like coils of cable. Crazy. Real soft spoken. I can't remember the street either. Not even sure if the sj golds was even assoc w Jerry. Jerry opened mountain view, freemont, the sj I think. I could be wrong. Then opened Santa Clara. I never saw the old David eqpt at Jerry's that was at Scott's. Maybe the sj went under then was opened in diff location later?  Can't remember. I do know that Jerry was eventually inducted in to the corporate golds hall of fame for the success of his huge gyms.

Danny Hester I think lives out in Oxnard, California (about 30 miles from where I live).  I see him quite a bit out at various contests and expo.  Knows quite a lot of people, and always very respectful.  He is considered one of the best bodybuilders to never turn pro (he would of easily had the current pro system been around).  I think he competed 20 years ago, and also last year, and still placed in the top 2.

We lost the golds down here which was pretty much gay even in the nineties. I always made the trek to Venice even back then. Dave fishers gym is down this way. Its cool too but Venice is in my blood

The Gold's Gym Redondo Beach turned to be Revolution Gym, which went bankrupt, surprising its members about 2-3 months ago. Sad, because that was a cool gym right next to the ocean there. Dave Fisher owns the Powerhouse Gym in Torrance (which is not a big gym at all but always cool).  I did a photoshoot in there once back.

Why would he want to crush his chest?

Does he not want it to grow?

Funny story. I first meet Scott Wilson when he was training with Casey Viator. I was training with Don Ross (RIP Ripper) and Wilson and Viator were training. Viator was huge- Scott Wilson was bigger.  Very wide indeed. Crazy forearms, even compared to Viator. Lots and lots of volume. 25+ sets for back. 25 sets for shoulders etc.  Probably 1982.
Tommy, always thought Scott was a very underrated bodybuilder. Wide ass shoulders huge delts arms forearms, his legs were huge too. Guy had no real weaknesses.

Didn't Google buy the property?  I heard it was going to be moved.  I don't know if that rumor is true or not.
