Wow , just fucking wow :-\
Once his calling card now just nothing , how the mighty have fallen :(
-
The guy had like 5 surgeries over the past few years so he was unable to train plus he is over 50 what do you expect.
-
I find it weird how some are shocked that someone as massive as pro bodybuilder will eventually loose size in huge quantity if he plans to live past his 40s.
-
I think in his last Instagram vid he said he'll be back in his prime shape in no time ;D
-

::)
I don't expect him to look like that , that's a fucking joke ALL DRUGS Ronnie ::)
-
His arms are still bigger than 99,99% of people and probably even bigger than pro bodybuilder Down Hill had during his peak.
-
Ronnie was always a big dude even when he was natural this is him in high school but the surgeries he over the years would have shrunk anybody.

Who cares? They're 99.99% smaller than they used to be
-
He is small and useless to us now.
-
He is small and useless to us now.
we can learn a lesson from him.
Imagine King Ronnie + Vasectomy at age 20. Imagine how much different things are today.
-
Nerve damage, insulin/GH abuse = Palumboism
Ronnie will never regain much of anything. He'll only "gain" more injuries.
His body has permanently thrown in the towel.

Kevin Levrone hasn't trained in 13 years and is 52 AND has had 2 surgeries (torn pec and torn tricep). So, that debunks your theory. The real answer is severe nerve damage, massive quantities of GH and severe palumboism.

No offense, but with that attitude you won't even make it to 70, but I'm sure you don't even want to if you think 50 is damn old.
-
As am I and in the shape of my life. No reason not to be.
That just means you were not in top shape regarding your potential in younger years.
There's no serious sport in the world where top athletes would be old.
Of course it is possible to run 100m fastest in your life at 50 yo if you were 250 lbs with 40% bodyfat in your 20's.
-
Holy shit, he really fucked himself up. His training style was for shit like the rest of the ass clowns at Metroflex
-
Jesus motherfucking Mary god damn Christ. This is why we train. This is bodybuilding. This thread is hereby closed.

The guy did it too himself AFTER he retired.
He kept an almost Olympia level (injured) physique 3 years after retirement
instead of slimming down and using lighter weights.
Here's 2010.. 3 years after retirement.

Yes, this pic freaked me out, too. Unbelievable.
But you know, the reason he looks now as he does is because he looked like this then.

This is called a cowardly loser life we only live once and instead of going after your dreams and doing whatever it takes like ronnie did you will sit on the couch and die doing nothing because you are afraid of your health and guess what no matter how much you watch your health you are still going to get sick and die.

ND is probably masterbating to the thought that Dorian finally has better arms than Ronnie.
-
Wow , just fucking wow :-\
Once his calling card now just nothing , how the mighty have fallen :(
You'd think his tris would be better from using a walker. Most of his body is now destroyed, but he could find solace in finally dedicating time to bringing his calves up.

Lee Haney has 8 Sandows and he's not a crippled Mr. Potato head.

You see this amazes me. Ronnie was motherfucking still HUGE (massive arms) for YEARS after he retired, which leads me to believe that he had incurred some serious injuries to his arms in very recent years.
-
He looks fine! Fuck off pig fuckers!!!!
Yeah but I think he can barely walk - or maybe he can't. Had he started training light few years ago he'd still be big and impressive by most standards and have an enjoyable life. But he's deliberately destroying his body by being hardcore when it makes no sense. Ronnie's amazing - best ever. At the same time he's amazingly stupid. Saw him in March at Arnold Classic in a wheelchair. Sad.

First of stop this blasphemy. Second you guys got it all wrong. This man has 8 kids. Being married and having kids ages and shrinks the shit out you. I am aging like a MF.
-
Not sure if this has been mentioned, but he is claiming on insta he will be back to his normal size
-
And some idiots believe he turned pro naturally :D
-
A year from now Ronnie will be a healthy, muscular 220 pounds and looking good. He's suffered to get where he did, but he's on the road back now 👍🏼

"Yip Yip"
"BOOM"
"yeah buddy!"
"light weight"
"nuttin' but a peanut"
at least once a day

The return of Coleman:

Exactly.
Ronnie did the right thing.

Ronnie did the right thing for him however he's not the only one living with the consequences , his actions affect others close to him. He says it was all worth it , bravado or stupidity? depends who you talk to.
And I'll decide what " life " should be for me not some quote from a guy who killed himself.

The key is Dorian admits to his aches and pains/injuries and stopped training like a crazy man. Ronnie could not let it go. He even broke one of the screws from the second lumbar fusion requiring a third.
This is Dorian in March staying lean.

It's much better just to take it easy when you get over a certain age, you should still lift but not super heavy, human joints aren't meant for that abuse as we age.

I can't think of any endeavor in life taken to it's highest level that is good for you health.
BTW, I don't think normal people that just want to live a long comfortable life cowards. They are simply normal. The high achievers, the one's who made a difference in this world and will be remembered, are the exception. To be number one in the world is by definition not normal.

LOL! They see a pic of Ronnie in a wheel chair after getting out of the hospital and now think he's a paraplegic. Fact is that he's still traveling the world, making money; always happy, jovial and up beat, living a much more fulfilling life than most of the nothings on this board.
They're talking and obsessing about Ronnie, worry about things like his arm size, whereas he has no idea and doesn't give a shit who they are. He's too busy living life.

Here we go. Disagreeing with a view point is "riding his coat tails". Can you point out exactly how I benefit personally from defending Ronnie? (You will not answer this question because you can't).
Yes, I haven't achieved greatness just like you haven't. We won't make the history books. Difference is that I admire, encourage, celebrate and appreciate those that have risen above the pack and tried to make a mark in life. You celebrate mediocrity.

Being a pro bber winning 8 Olympias isn't a goal of mine, have no desire to have a physique even if I could attend Ronnie status
Now if I was given the status of billionaire or multimillionaire, traveling the world, meeting different people, experiencing different kinds of food/wine/beer, making a difference in future generations, then yes :D

lol, go out and ask people on the street how many Olympias Ronnie Coleman won.
No one knows who he is outside the weird subculture that is bodybuilding.

No your blind hero-worship of Ronnie and his actions is riding his coat tails , you sticking a needle in your ass in some vain attempt to be like Ronnie is riding his coat tails. You benefit personally from defending Ronnie because you think somehow you're kindred spirits in the " Iron Game " the last of a dying breed " Brothers in Iron " and us little people aren't built like you and the HARDCORE we don't have the intestinal fortitude to do what you guys do ::) You're a cliche and Ronnie is a cripple congrats you're in great company

Greatness is relative , you don't know what I've achieved was I the best at a chosen sport? No. And you're wrong , I don't celebrate mediocrity, I'm a huge fan of Lee Haney he accomplished the same as Ronnie and moved on with his life , Ronnie is getting surgery and still driving himself into the ground. Steve Reeves is another bodybuilder who I admire and celebrate , these gentlemen have earned respect and proven themselves to be exceptional humans.
If everyone was like you we would still be living in the stone age and never would have advanced.
Oh the irony of this statement , says the believer in God stuck in the Bronze age with all of their myths and fears and prejudices. It was people like ME that advanced society while people like you repress it in the name of your imaginary sky father.
-

This is it. He should have trained lighter and maybe a little slower but still to failure, but he just kept going heavy. Lifting heavy feels great but if it's time to back off it's fucking time.
-
People that defend Ronnie act as though it was an absolute necessity that he train so heavy in order to succeed. Not to mention defending Ronnie's nonsensical insistence of continuing on that path subsequent to retirement and in spite of his surgeries and health maladies. It's supposed to be bodybuilding, remember? His actions are the antithesis of bodybuilding and a sign of mental illness. Lee Haney has 8 titles and I don't see him in a wheel chair. In fact, no other Mr. Olympia is a mangled mess like Ronnie. Take away Ronnie's opiates for a day and see if he regrets his decisions or not.

Tell that to people who cannot live a normal life due to pain and the mind blurring pain meds. With time they won't even remember the "great" hazardous life they had.
After retirement Ronnie was in decent shape, had a somewhat functional body. Due to his obcession with crazy loads he has a miserable life now, who cares how wealthy he is.

While I admire Ronnie for what he did, at some point, you just have to take it easy. You know his doctors are like, "You know, you now require a third screw because you broke one of the screws. Maybe its time to take it easy."
There is nothing wrong with Ronnie still training, but it is idiotic to still train like he does. I can't imagine any doctor telling him, "Sure, go balls to the wall with your training." I think its obvious he is not following doctors orders.
I hope he continues to recover.

Mike Christian looking good and healthy there are those pics recent, great to see a lot of the guys still living the lifestyle once the sport is gone for them personally and still looking good, makes up for the many others who post bodybuilding don't even train, never understood that, I would never do something for 10-15 years unless i really loved it, I will train until the day I drop.

No your blind hero-worship of Ronnie and his actions is riding his coat tails , you sticking a needle in your ass in some vain attempt to be like Ronnie is riding his coat tails. You benefit personally from defending Ronnie because you think somehow you're kindred spirits in the " Iron Game " the last of a dying breed " Brothers in Iron " and us little people aren't built like you and the HARDCORE we don't have the intestinal fortitude to do what you guys do ::) You're a cliche and Ronnie is a cripple congrats you're in great company
Greatness is relative , you don't know what I've achieved was I the best at a chosen sport? No. And you're wrong , I don't celebrate mediocrity, I'm a huge fan of Lee Haney he accomplished the same as Ronnie and moved on with his life , Ronnie is getting surgery and still driving himself into the ground. Steve Reeves is another bodybuilder who I admire and celebrate , these gentlemen have earned respect and proven themselves to be exceptional humans.
Oh the irony of this statement , says the believer in God stuck in the Bronze age with all of their myths and fears and prejudices. It was people like ME that advanced society while people like you repress it in the name of your imaginary sky father.
"Worship of Ronnie?" Imagine all the head shaking going on considering your obsession with both Dorian and Ronnie. I mean, you started this thread. How closely do you follow this guy. I've never started a thread or even brought up Ronnie in any of my posts. I just respond to comments.
"Worship"? LOL! You're such a moron with the mind of a child.
Anyway, I just read the first sentence to realize it is just another of your meltdown rants you always have when someone disagrees with you. I see I really struck a nerve and hurt your feelings.
We can go back and forth about Ronnie forever but the fact is that Ronnie is by all accounts a very happy and upbeat man who achieved and lived his dream. Few in this world can say that, especially you, though not all are as bitter and angry as you are.
-
People that defend Ronnie act as though it was an absolute necessity that he train so heavy in order to succeed. Not to mention defending Ronnie's nonsensical insistence of continuing on that path subsequent to retirement and in spite of his surgeries and health maladies. It's supposed to be bodybuilding, remember? His actions are the antithesis of bodybuilding and a sign of mental illness. Lee Haney has 8 titles and I don't see him in a wheel chair. In fact, no other Mr. Olympia is a mangled mess like Ronnie. Take away Ronnie's opiates for a day and see if he regrets his decisions or not.
Why does this bother you? Why do you care?
There's a big difference between defending the choices people make in life and defending their right to make those choices.
I think just aspiring to be a pro bodybuilder is a poor choice but Ronnie made it and was very successful at it and continues to do what he loves. Doing what you love and focusing solely on health are often not compatible. Ronnie likes to throw around big weights. He is not doing it to be healthy. I, well into my fifties, still like to roll on the mat and trade punches with guys half my age. I have paid, and continue to pay, the price. I'm always in some kind of pain. Still it's worth to me because that's what I love to do. We all are going to grow old, weak, frail and then die. Maybe sooner for me. Maybe you'll live to 90 and I'll live to 70. I'm OK with that.
Are you?

Awwww still mad I outed you as a pedo? :'( interesting choice of words too :-X
Ronnie is a broken man who still cannot walk unassisted , he's a shell of his former self and has no one but himself to blame. Ronnie is not a victim of anything other than stupidity.

Why does this bother you? Why do you care?
Why does it bother YOU that it bothers him? Why do YOU care that he cares? ::)

"Ain't nuttin' but a peanut" now accurately describes Ronnie's biceps. :(

You are a child because you actually start a post commenting on the size of another man's arms. He's not a competitive bber anymore and his arms are more developed than the vast majority of people out there -- including yours. Yet you obsess over it.
He's happy and you're not. Anyway you look at it you lose.
-
Why does it bother YOU that it bothers him? Why do YOU care that he cares? ::)
And that's how you read it? Again, you show yourself from years of posting on this board that you are simply not very educated, well read or intelligent. You are still a child with you meltdown and rants.
-
Boom We have a winner ;D Yeah Buddy Light weights now
Lets see your arms....
That's what I thought.
-
lol, go out and ask people on the street how many Olympias Ronnie Coleman won.
No one knows who he is outside the weird subculture that is bodybuilding.
Charles Manson was one of billions who acquired fame and notoriety.
Ask people who the Vice President of the US is? Ask who freed the slaves? Ask whose images are on Mount Rushmore? Ask who was the first man to land on the moon? Ask who developed that polio vaccine.
Whether you know them or not their place in history is secure in their chosen endeavors. Neither your's nor ND's are. It may not matter to you because you are dead. But that's the difference between the achievers and masses.
Some want to make a mark in life whereas most want to just skate through life.
I'm fine with both.
As far as your Manson example. Like most people, you have blurred the line between fame and infamy. Big difference.
-

I do wonder what Ronnies doctors have told him regarding weight training,

I cannot think of any sane, logical reason for someone to be so excited and enthused about Ronnie's current condition, especially considering Ronnie himself has no regrets. But ND is not a sane logical person, note the Mayor of Bodybuildingesque amounts of bodybuilding photos saved on his hard drive.
I can think of only one reason for ND to be so bitter towards Ronnie...
Press play. Keep scrolling

There are a lot of "unique" characters on this board but he is one of the handful of truly weird and creepy ones. Just the amount of time he spends on the net collecting pics and focusing and obsessing over how other people live their lives is more than enough to classify him in the danger zone. I can only imagine what is on his hard drive let alone the thoughts that preoccupy his mind.

Yes we should all aspire to be like you , educated , well read and intelligent. ::) LMFAO fuck off pedobear this didn't end well for you the last time ;)
How long before your meltdown to the mods and rants about how you were just misunderstood?

I started a post about how the mighty have fallen and continue to fall. Everyone loves a trainwreck and Ronnie is a fucking trainwreck , same with Flex. I love butthurt fan-boys like you so salty because I'm giving my opinion on the Gossip & Opinions board on a bodybuilding message board. Dissenting opinions are allowed not just blind hero worship like you sheep.
Why do my words bother YOU so much? Think about that. Your reaction to my words speaks volumes about you.

LMAO. Meltdown galore.
I remember you going through my 10,000+ post cherry picking to suit your agenda.
Taken in totality, nobody has the impression that I've had sex with a prepubescent child, that I worship Ron Coleman, that disagreeing with your post mean I am bothered and hurt by you. Note the difference in our responses. Yours are unambiguous meltdowns. I can just see you grinding your teeth pounding on the key board.
Now go through again my decade long post history to find references I've made about Ronnie. And make sure you store that on your hard drive as well.
This is your life. This is how you spend your time.
You are a disturb individual.

He actually got loose skin like those fat dudes after dropping 300 lbs. I didn't know that could happen with muscular bodyparts that shrivel away too.
In this pic he looks like a 70+ year old.
You may say all he did was his own choice, but he must have been pushed by sponsors and IFBB and then some. Plus I still think he's not a very bright man, regardless of his 'degree in accountancy'....
This is sad, he wouldn't place in an amateur masters show...

I never claimed you did however your opinion the the matter is suspect and makes you look like a sympathizer which is almost as bad. And the rest of the nonsense of projection. You're the mod crybaby. I made a post about Ronnie and boo-hoo you can't handle it ::) grow up. I've posted hundreds of shots of Ronnie at his best and worse , you never shared your opinion until I pointed out the train wreck he's become.
You are a disturb individual.
Says the guy who thinks a child can consent to having sex with an adult man. Says the guy pushing 60 who injects steroids which he buys off internet from homemade labs , who gets robbed of his money by his ' gh15 God ' ::) says the guy who refers to himself as an ' elf ' says the guy who's not married , has no children and meltsdown when someone has an dissenting opinion on a bodybuilding messageboard , says the convicted felon who makes death threats online.
You're a creepy old douche who should know better from the last time I kicked your ass. ;) Run along Uncle Pellius go fill your free candy van up and troll the streets

Boom We have a winner ;D Yeah Buddy Light weights now
He is still bigger than anyone in the crowd background ;D
And I can't see how this is failing and stupidity.
Age will take us all. That's guaranteed.
Even Stalin, Reagan, JP Morgan, Emperor of China died as wrinkled, impotent old men, their joints hurting, drugged due to illnesses... Coffins of neither did require no special dimensions despite their former might and ego.
And so will perish us all.
No matter if we have won the World War, cold war or Mr. Olympia.

cock grabbing of Peas! ;D

Wow , just fucking wow :-\
Once his calling card now just nothing , how the mighty have fallen :(
Ronnie has been a subject of discussion for a while now on getbig and everytime we get a latest update on him, it opens a can of worm again....it's entertaining and I have to say he has nothing to regret or shamed about.....beside the multiple surgeries, I don't think even Ronnie himself thought his once Mighty 8x Olympia physique would deteriorate to that level......like they say, shit could be worse, right?
-
I find it weird how some are shocked that someone as massive as pro bodybuilder will eventually loose size in huge quantity if he plans to live past his 40s.
this is getbig.....we don't give a fuck about aging Pro bodybuilders....we only care if they stay 280lbs, shredded, diced past their prime

Yes however the major point being he's just 52 years old NOT 72.

TLDR.
I'm not going to waste my time reading another one of hysterical meltdowns. And they are legit meltdowns (an over used term on this board). Gone are the days when I engage with people like you with 50 page threads going back and forth. I am already mindful of how much time I spend on this board. I post on three forums and GetBig easily gets 85% of my attention. I mean, I have over ten thousand posts. And I don't bother with social media: FB, instagram, snapchat... Don't have the time or desire. But that's still a lot of time on the net bs-ing.
That's why it's a testament as to what type of person I am dealing with. Despite you being very active on YouTube, FB, Instagram... following other people's lives you still manage a daily post average of nearly triple mine. Triple! Over 54,000 posts in total! You literally live on the net. From the time you wake until the time you sleep your nose is buried in your cell phone preoccupied with how other people live their lives.
While Ronnie is traveling the world, making money, actually going to the gym and working out, loving his life, living his dream, and always smiling, happy and upbeat; you are following him around, a grown ass man, preoccupied with the size of his arms and how he trains in the gym. Something you don't even do. (I noticed you quietly ignore my request to show what kind of arms youth and pampered living has blessed you with).
Train wreck indeed.
We'll see, if you ever manage to reach Ronnie's age, what kind of life you will have to look back on. But I sense a Radical Plato in you so we may never know.
BTW, make sure to save this to your hard drive and store it in your portfolio you have of me where you keep my pictures and post history -- someone you will never meet and someone who has no influence over your life.
As for me, I'll continue to live in the great State of Hawaii where people are so much more friendly and laid back than when I was in LA. I come from a huge family and I'm constantly surrounded by family and friends, interacting with real people, and being eternally grateful for being so blessed.
You, well you have your cell phone and your forums and social media. We all make choices on how we want to live our lives. Doesn't effect or bother me.
