Title: John Loyd , Bostin's Father
Post by: NarcissisticDeity on August 11, 2016, 05:04:39 PM
Never knew his father competed maybe because I don't care about any of the current crop

Looks better than his son, but you see where Bostin gets his arms from.

Must've gotten his mama's genetics, but I totally see the resemblance with the arm on the side chest.

We were and still are friends. Jon was one of the strongest bodybuilders of the 1980's.  Missed his pro card losing to Gary Strydom I believe.

Mama is ripped as all hell too, and at an older age. Bostin seems to come from a bodybuilding family.

What was Strydom, a South African, doing competing in the Nationals?  No disrespect to Gary, who I like.

Two gifted people do not necessarily have kids even more gifted. Bostin is above average though, despite idiots saying he has poor response to the bb lifestyle.

Is his father still alive?  I knew his father was a former bber - just interested to know what a parent would feel about what he does.

I don't mind the guy - but if it were a son, who the fuck would want to watch their son inject himself about 7 times on youtube in a single day ???

Dennis Newman, Flex, Paul Demayo, Cormier, Dorian, Mike Francois, Chris Cook, Ruhl,  Dallas,  Phil, Richie Richard, etc they were above average. Bostin isn't. If he were, then he would be making inroads like all those mentioned above

Above average as in above average gym rat or average male in the population. Above average NPC competitor. There are tons of pure shit NPC guys with much worse genetics than Bostin.The guys you mention are the top of the top, not merely above average bb genetics if looking at the population at large.

Ah missed this.

Do you know what he thinks about his son being very much a modern day gearhead?

I won't disagree however bear in mind that his son is a twenty something kid making 100K plus a year, with his father not having to break the bank for college tuition and shit.........

props to dad looking great. I wonder if it was his father that teached his son about megadosing for success.

always liked Dennis Newman. Seems as tho he beat his cancer, leukemia I think. Bodybuilders from that era were, for the most part, ppl who were looked up to. Held to a higher standard unlike the tards of today where gh gut and acromeglia caveman faces seem to be dominating.

I always thought Mike O'Tren must have punched the air and whooped with joy when he heard about Newman's diagnosis.  That f@#ker (Newman) was handsome!  (no homo).

Hmmmm.....  Might start a real jock-grabbing thread of comparison pictures if I can be 4rsed later...

Way better than his kid will ever hope to be regardless of the boatloads of shit he espouses.
