he would beat anybody today...
-
From 1985 to 1988, he was truly fantastic. (balanced, shredded, density ..)

Rich had some structural flaws but he was extremely thick and brought a whole new level of conditioning and hardness to the stage for the mid 1980's.
As I mentioned in the interview, he was the best bodybuilder in the world except for Lee Haney for several years. He beat Mike Christian, Lee Labrada,
Gary Strydom, Berry DeMey, Phil Hill, Robby Robinson and many others during his years of placing runner-up to Haney.

Little pecs, little arms, narrow shoulders, wide waist.
Shredded?... not much separation for having thin skin, especially his back. Balanced?... legs were too big for upper body. Fantastic?... hardly.
Placed 2nd in the Mr. O... huh? ???
-
His back wasn't separated?
-
Parabolin one amp eod
Primo ace one amp eod
Anadrol 200mg daily

It was his level of conditioning that saw him do so well, and I wouldn't say gaspari had little pecs.

gaspari had a great side chest...
-
big thighs, narrow shoulders, flat arms, thick obliques
Not a good look

.. Was phenomenal for his time .. To his credit, he made the best of his potential and surpassed men with much greater genetic gifts by virtue of his dogged determination and hard work ethic.. He placed 2nd at his Olympias because all things considered; he was the 2nd best on stage at that time... He is a true legend and inspiration for these reasons.. Those who were around at the time would understand this..

Parabolin one amp eod
Primo ace one amp eod
Anadrol 200mg daily
Legit? Pretty basic. No GH, etc?
-
Parabolin one amp eod

Anadrol 200mg daily
No test? lol. 200mg of Anadrol daily? Wouldn't someone be a walking waterlogged doughboy back then? I know today they use drugs to offset the water retention and take this stuff even on the day of the show. :-X

I agree, he was awesome for his time. I put in the full posing routine from the '85 and '87 Olympia so people who weren't around back then could appreciate how thick and hard he was, especially compared to
the bodybuilders he was competing against.
-
Douchebag of a person though

I AGREE,plus he was a jersey boy,,he put in all out effort 85/90 like no other,,,i watched it Hansen was good interview and rich really went into describing yr to yr getting to mr o.back then only mag's showed contest coverage and the articles were written anyway,he remembers those shows like it was yesterday..
-
The two things he was famous for; are exactly what ?
1- Becoming a pro Bodybuilder so young
2- being so ripped shredded and extremely low BF
In other words you need to abuse drugs since early teens years and diuretics.
Only in Bodybuilding that can be something to be awarded for.
WooSSHHHHHHHHHHHHH Talk about talent
-
What are you Gaspari nut-huggers smoking?
17" arms, horrible structure, blocky, narrow, bad skin, I could go on and on.
I saw him in the first Arnold Classic. Hard to believe he beat Robinson, Samir, Paris... even Fox was better. 80% of the audience was booing when he won, including me.

You did a great job. I enjoyed it. It was my during my teen years when I started competing and I had all the VHS Olympia tapes. I even stole some of Rich's posing music to win my National Teen title.

Thank you! I am Rich's age so I can relate to what you are saying. Please check out my website for future shows. I interviewed Samir Bannout, Chris Dickerson and Boyer Coe in the last week so those interviews are coming up next. www.FloridaPhysique.com

I doubt it, bodybuilders didn't use much test back in the '80's. It seems like everyone is using it now but back then there were legitimate steroids that
were cheap and worked good and they didn't have the heavy side effects of test.

This is true which is why you didn't see that many bloated bodybuilders if any. If any one saw him in his prime at the gym, he wasn't that big of a guy.
-
Yes, he said in the interview that his weight for most of his pro shows was between 210-215 except for the '87 Olympia where he was about 222.

how is test harsher than parabolin and anadrol

like u said in interview 1987 u like his 220 plus look,he was huge all around there,,,them 88 goes down 10 lbs harder looking but weird how he decided to drop right back down,,today bbers go up/up/up....
-
The current gaspari now is on a shit load of GH and body looks all tired and worn out. Body parts all strange looking/torn. Biceps look shortened and weird
Ego lifting at its best, still trying to train with weights he can't handle. At his age he should just lift properly, physique looks like shit and can't compare to Lee labrada who I think is even older
