Title: Boyer COE's later years
Post by: Nether Animal on November 16, 2016, 06:07:56 AM
Very impressive for his age, hanging with the young guns. He said in an interview that he started hitting the GH and that is what kept him competitive.

Amazing arms

My brother works for an insurance company that specializes in insurance for vintage cars/boats. One day a few months back he got a call from a guy named "Boyer". Come to find out it was him. He was pretty shocked that my bro knew who he was.

There isn't really too much of a punchline to this story....

He was one of my dad's favorites from back in the day.

How many heart surgeries has he had?   Is it really worth it?

Boyer seems well spoken and honest, his comeback for the Masters Olympia was quite inspirational. Good interview here:

honest question---whenever you're talking to someone who is OBVIOUSLY wearing a wig, has the wig wearer ever caught you staring at this wig?


Also, do you have to have some sort of internal dialogue that repeats "DON'T STARE AT THE WIG! DON'T STARE AT THE WIG!" when that person is talking to you?

 Actually there were a few people that cared, I was one, met Boyer on a couple of occasions, very nice to everyone I saw him come in contact with, and his his physique although flawed was still better than 99% of the nonbodybuilding, or bodybuilding public.

Not even close. Outside of arms, he was a footnote. He has always been known as the one with great (split) biceps and no abs (and wide waist).

Boyer was always one of my favorite bodybuilders.

Saw him in 1972 or so in Boston as he was a guest poser.

He had on a black Golds Gym track suit and looked tiny to me.

Once he got onstage I fucking freaked,Diamond split calves,marble columns for quads,tiny waist devoid of abs but who cares,and his fucking arms were huge,just enormous with split peaks in both biceps......posed like a pro too.

One of the most impressive guys I remember seeing to this very day.

The next day in my youthful enthusiam I trained like demon and was sore for a solid week!  :D

I agree Tim. I saw Boyer in 1980 right after the Mr. Olympia contest. He was giving a seminar in Chicago at Bill Pearl's Gym and he came out in his posing trunks after the seminar to do a posing exhibition and I was blown away. His legs, which look thin in pictures sometimes, looked amazing in person. He looked much more impressive in person than in pics. I can see why he was such a great champion for so many years. Also, consider that his career lasted from the 1960's to the 1990's. Not many of today's bodybuilders will be competing for a 30 year period.

Besides the skin, more bodybuilders back then look like their muscles are full of water when relaxed...in a good way,,, like they're supposed with 70% water in skeletal muscle...and then there is a huge difference when flexed. Now, the muscles have a similar look flexed or relaxed.

Some more pics of older Boyer. Very impressive, only he, Lou and a couple other golden era guys were still relevant in the early-mid '90s.

Robbie Robinson was still relevant, as was Tom Platz, Rich Gaspari, Mike Christian, and an aging Sonny Schmidt and Vince Taylor.

Robbie is another one. Gaspari, Christian and Sonny weren't part of the golden era, though. By this point Platz was done. He did that one comeback around '94 but I don't think he ever competed.

Wes and Natural O are absolutely correct.  Boyer Coe is bodybuilding royalty.  In addition to winning almost every major contest, he came close to achieving the rarity of winning both the overall AAU Mr. America and the IFBB Mr. America title.  I think he won the medium class and several subdivision awards in the IFBB show, but was edged out by Ken Waller for the overall championship.  I am privileged to have attended his guest posing exhibitions and have met him.  Very down to earth, patient, articulate, and personable.  Anyone who thinks Boyer Coe had a short and unaccomplished competitive bodybuilding career is either misinformed or an idiot.  Maybe both.  Again, kudos to
Wes and Natural O for taking the time educate the Getbiggers who aspire to learn and appreciate bodybuilding history.  This site is fortunate to have two such accomplished competitors/historians amongst its membership.
