Padilla is carrying way too much fat, especially in the abdominal region. If my suspicions are correct and he's running elevated cholesterol numbers and high blood pressure, he's in a lot of trouble.

Padilla and Dupree looking good.  Is that Howorth I see there?  These men are all in their mid sixties and older now.  As for looking like the residentially challenged, well Pettis is probably the only one that is and that's his fault.

Even today so few make a real living at bodybuilding.  In fact from what I recall back in the early 70s only Franco and Arnold were able to do so but they also did real work outside of selling courses and guest posing for contests.

They look very familiar and I hope to recall their names soon.  I am a fan of bodybuilding from the 40s through the 80s, so this is my time frame.  Perhaps funk or Stunt will chime in before my synapses start firing again?  ;D

I talked to Danny a few yrs ago.  A total class act!  He lives in Rochester, NY & does personal training.  The guy deserves a helluva lotta respect.  Interesting how he obviously didn't F himself up w/ steroids.  He doesn't have much fat.  Those pics are deceptive.  His health as far as I know is great & he's is in no trouble whatsoever.  ::)

That is Kent....Long time front desk manager at the Mecca and backstage manager at all the IFBB, NPC, early AAU and natty shows in So California until about 10 years ago. I worked the backstage with him for years when I was not on it. I believe he was one of the few men to win the Mr. America more than once.

That would mean coach is on deaths door.

On another note, it's odd Arnold was not there, he and Danny were tight. Also, should getbig members start a letter writing campaign to get vic inducted next year?

What sucks is being left w/ a broken down, worn out body because of years of steroid use talking about yesterday instead of listening to hot little blondies say stuff like "Your how old?.  Jeez you look much younger than that".  I'm loving being a late bloomer.  I value it so much more than than I would have 20yrs ago.

Neither is permanently impairing your endogenous testosterone production by chronic use of exogenous steroids  under the wrong assumption artificial elevation is going to increase the rate of hypertrophy as a result of strength training.  The broken down old men pictured is an excellent example of the end result of such idiocy.

Nowhere did I mention "young girls".  Hot little blondes could apply to any age woman.

That man will either be 75-85 yrs old and still walking around in a speedo and posing his non-existent muscular arms, or will be killed by some hoodlum.

You could just as easily have been talking about short blonde men. I wouldn't have judged you for it as god works in mysterious ways these days and you cant help what you are.

I don't know why the local softball league can make an event more "relevant looking"  than the legendary Muscle Beach Hall of fame....

Even in 3rd world countries they make it look more like a decent  event .
