Title: Which pros routinely lie about their weight?
Post by: 240 is Back on April 26, 2006, 02:10:22 PM
Some guys are pretty straight up about what they weigh.  Other constantly lie.  Strydom and Prince pop into mind as guys who stretch the numbers.  What others do this, and why?

 Prince didn't lie about his weight. He has a huge lower body and still weighs a little over 200 pounds.

Tom claimed he was 240 at 8 percent body fat looking like he is now. I could believe 200 since he wears very baggy clothing but other than that no way.

But I do feel bad for the dude the mental side of losing so much size must do a number on him. Not to mention the health shit he has to deal with.

He can be an asshole tho

its not that hard you just pee it out. you dont pay attention and its all gone especially when your body doesnt want it any more and you dont train as serious (dont mean heavy what i mean is serious approach) nor do you take any serious compounds. shrinking is a fast process

reason many of us dont shrink when we go off if we go off is simply cuz we go on all you can eat diet (anything and everything) and it covers up pretty well for any temporary loss in size (if training is intact and you have enough muscle mass to begin with!) infact we many times gain size and weight during those time periods.

for the 100th time i will say it. you will never grow on clean diet. NEVER! no matter how much hormones you take (you will stop at 200-210/5'10 with low-low teens bf levels and be stuck there if you always eat clean and on hormones. nothing more)

Not true.

A clean diet provides all of the nutrients necessary for maximal muscle growth. The clean diet needs to be diverse and well rounded ... I agree that simple chicken/rice won't suffice. Meat, Simple and Complex Carbohydrates, Fruit, Vegetables, Milk, and Fats are the requisite elements.

Ultimately, its difficult to consume the sheer number of calories necessary to grow with only clean food options, but it is still entirely possible with enough time and discipline. If you are implying that the sort of stuff a clean diet lacks (such as trans fat - which may interfere with amino acids - or high fructose corn syrup - the worst carbohydrate source, completely bypasses the muscle and is stored as liver glycogen, once liver glycogen stocks are full the body begins to accumulate bodyfat) is necessary to gain size, then you are dead wrong.

this is all good for the science my friend. you can have whatever trans fats you want and whatever books you read all aranged for you and you wont make it in our world. period! the dispiline is good for pre competition crap it is good for 13-16 weeks maybe 20 weeks if youre really wacked but that is it. i do admit that if you compete more than once a year then some stuff needs to be changed but IN GENERAL you will never get bigger (muscle bigger) unless you eat whatever you want. now when i say whatever you want i dont mean drink fat and eat no protien...what i mean is you will grow the best if you consume a lot of calories that come from any fuckin place you can get them as long as there is enough protien within them you will do fine.

you DO NOT i repeat you do not get to my current 288 pounds offseason eating clean. period. yes you can look big 210 pounds and eat clean and do hormones and be stuck there but you will NEVER i say it again NEVER get BBBIG.

you also must understand that what i write here is not for the begginer bodybuilder!! it is for a bodybuilder that has his foundation and been around for couple years that already got down in bodyfat or brought it down low enough to begin this kind of growth. this is directed to people who are the average every day gym rat that wanna grow past 200 pounds at 12% (5'10) and wanna get to the next level size wize.

there is no other way if you wanna have BIG THICK muscles. no other way

  Priest. I've seen him give interviews where he stated to be 250 lbs, when in reality he was around 320 lbs. The guy eats chicken burritos and epperoni pizza every day in the off-season and washes it down with Mountain Dew. Then, he has a belly that could earn him a some extra cash in december by being the Bloomingdale's Santa, yet he still wants us to belive he's 250 lbs. Yeah, right...

320? at 5'2 or whatever he is?  No way.  He's down on muscle too, when he gets all fat for those photo shoots.  NO way 320.  Ronnie coleman, at 5'10 or whatever, looks freaking HUGE at 315.  No way Lee does it at a few inches shorter

I doubt Lee gets to 250, 230 or so is probably accurate. He only got huge one time and that was for that MuscleTech ad, but he ate things more to make him look bloated which in turn made him look fatter than he was.

  Understand something:despite all of his muscles, Lee is CLINICALLY OBESE in the off-season. Get it? Have you ever seen a picture of him in off-season shape? He looks like someone who's never workout-out in his entire life. Despite having huge muscles, he has so much fucking fat covering them that you can't see shit! At 320 lbs, Ronnie still has more definition than most of the skinny guys who workout at you gym. So, yeah, Priest does weight 320 lbs in the off-season and he doesen't look as good as Ronnie at that weight because...he is much shorter and has less muscle. Duh! :P

Fat weighs a lot more than muscle, and in those offseason pics, lee has a lot more fat than muscle.  He just uses maint. doses in offseason and piles on the cl*n for shows.  I would be happy to bet $1 that Lee has NEVER hit 320 pounds, much less EVERY offseason. 

Dude, he's short. and 320 pounds is HUGE!  Quincy T is a foot taller and never tops 350 or 360.

Not all of them in the least. At the Ironman's Press Conference, when you do weigh them, complete with clothes and shoes (take off 5lbs), they were pretty accurate with their weight, some even saying they were lower than what they were. Some pros are very accurate in how much they weigh.

Muscle weighs more than fat. At least that is what I have always been told...but yeah...no way he ever weighed 320...not at 5'4

  Ron, can you make something clear for us? At the 97 O, wasn't Dorian 266 lbs for pre-judging and 274 lbs at the night show? I'm asking this because I've been called a liar several times for this, on several Ronnie vs Dorian threads, Can you confirm this for me? Both Peter McGough, Jim Schmaltz and Jim Manion have confirmed this weights.

so all of u r saying that ronnie weighed in at 287lbs ripped at the 2003 olympia was fake....so he was more like 267lbs.............no way.........COLEMAN DOES LOOK AS IF HE IS 280LBS AND THATS TRUE...ronnie never lies about his weight as far as i know.damn colemaans legs alone look they r about 200lbs themselves....also there is fact that every 1 knows wich is that muscles r heavier than fat by weight.so all these claims made by other pros r true.

You sound like a delusional fatass. Any dipshit can stuff himself with food and weigh 280 lb. It doesn't mean a god dammed thing. Most of you internet "mass monsters" would be lucky to weigh 220 in contest shape. Just look at Massive G or DoggCrapp from Muscle Mayhem. These idiots have no v-taper and probably measure over 30% bodyfat, but they're always bragging about their weight. I've weighed as much as 250 lb at 5'11", but would never fool myself into thinking that I was lean at that weight. In fact, I would probably weigh no more than 195 if I got truly ripped.

Brian,
you have it in a nutshell.
I remember weighing in at around 300 and looking, from my own perspective what i think was pretty reasonable shape. Then I did a bf test and it came in at high 20's. It was then that i truly realised just how much I actually had to diet down to get to the next stage.
And to be honest i have never contemplated dieting down since.

boys and gals relax i just got back from night training and had to suffer lots of dumb questions in that particular gym so do me a favor and relax.
now brian darling...you need to start reading my broken english a little deeper and maybe do it few times every time i post on getbig.

what i said was that my recomendation were to a bodybuilder that has experience under his belt and aleady stands at low-low teens bf% I DID NOT recommend this to any one who enter a gym once a week and decides he wanna start working out!

now...NOT every deep shit can stuff himself with food and be 280 and not anybod can stuff himself with food and be 200lb. it depends on many factors which are mainly the person's metabolism (many american kids can eat all they want and be 240 because they are obese overweight to begin with but its all individual thing)  so in that case you  talk out of your ass. thats that

now..when i say stuff yourself with calories in the offseason I ASSUME the person that does it starts at 32inch waist/200lb/9-10%bf  and has his foundation dialed in.

you will learn in the future that in bodybuilding the more muscle you have the better you will burn the crap you eat and the better and easier it will be for you to build and blow up your muscle from THE INSIDE.

when i say 280lb i also mean that my waist dont go over 38 inch and it is one big hard pot belly looking thingy that is a femiliar look with any single  serious bodybuilder on earth now days.

i never say stuf yourself up and get yoru waist up to 48 inches and be 30%bf THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN TO BODYBUILDERS WHO KNOW THEIR BODY AND KNOW WHAT THEY DO BOTH HORMONE WIZE AND TRAINING WIZE. that wont happen to bodybuilders who have ENOUGH muscle mass and consistently compete since we always play with our body composition and always take calculated  and some times even uncalculated risks. the reason you can not do it most likely is simply because you dont have enough muscle mass and when i say muscle mass i mean tissue! many are like you and its not a bad thing but im tellin any one here that if you wanna grow and get that tissue on you so you can compete at 240 you do need to be eating the calories that will let you be 280-290 and NO CLEAN DIET WILL DO YOU THAT. PERIOD. you will be surprized how much bigger thicker and more muscular you will look during the cutting phase when you add the right hormones in!

why am i even writing this... :D id better stay like 99% of us who dont say shit to you unless get payed to train you for a competition or just keep to ourselves so everyone else dont get the concept. i guess im really trying to show you the light somewhere in your head because 75% of what i read here is total crap my friend

it really dont matter to me wether i get 5 stars or 10 stars or 20 stars i, due to the way i write here and due to my involvment with hormones will not give out my name but rest assure everything i say is HOLY.

always remember this: your mission is to get up to 250 at 13% inorder to compete at 200 at 4%....your mission is to ger to 290 at 13% inorder to compete at 240 at 4%. most bodybuilders follow this routine and 50lb is what you lose roughly inorder to stand on stage. ofcourse you will never get to 250 at 13% (5'9) if you didnt eat your mommy and daddy and kept it clean all the time you simply wont.

I bet they all do. It's the opposite of what women do, the guys have to be heavier than each other.

Its insane watching a guy tipping the scales at 280, looking in the mirror and saying "I'm skinny as a bitch. I need to get bigger"

Prince didn't lie about his weight. He has a huge lower body and still weighs a little over 200 pounds.

how do you know what he weighs? did he tell you?

I'm assuming with a name like Marcie, it's a woman. If not, with a name like Marcie, he's unquestionably gay. Either way, someone likes teh cock.

This pic is from the Muscletime #4 DVD and Tommi is supposedly 270 in it.  I find that hard to believe.

MuscleTime #4  - The Pro World (http://www.mesomorphosis.com/go/aw.aspx?A=3&Task=Click&TargetURL=http://www.mesomorphosis.com/store/videos/muscletime-no-4.html)

I don't know, it's possible. Hell, he's got a good 10lbs in his bellybutton alone.

The sheer volume of this post qualifies it as an example of Supporting Getbig.

I'm sure you are joking. ;) It was actually a very good post and he did a good job of explaining the point he had been making previously. More posts and members like this GH guy woulod be better. He makes some valid points. Unfortunately as a Doctor I can't recommend anyone strive for 280lbs due to the health problems. sometimes I feel like I would love to look like a pro BB for a while but even if I could get that big which I probably couldn't, I would never let myself gain that much weight. Even if you ends up looking good, carrying 280 for long periods of your life is not good in anyone's book. Someone mentioned Lee Priest earlier. As great as Lee looks and as much as I would like his arms, he used to look disgusting in the offseason.

regards, the Doc

I think the biggest  was Kovacs.  In all the MT adds he did they claimed He would be the first bodybuilder in history to step on stage @ 400 lbs. riped.  They were pushing this from 95-98 and had allot of people believing they were looking at the next Mr. 0.  Now He's a freak show and people go to see how bad His condition is going to be.  Sad for such a nice guy to be turned into a sideshow at the show.

Here is a crazy pic of lee, I think it shows how big he gets in the offseason.  Not lean, but still has a good shape to his muscles.

Lee does not look good in that shot. Sorry.

Are you Brett? The real Brett? Your coming was foretold, and no you've arrived! You have lots of followers here Brett. Please share your bulking wisdom with the rest us mortals.


Does anyone here have that shot of Brett where he puts Lee Priest's arms to shame?

 In "another blond myth" Lee preist said that he weighs a different amount in each reality, mags, competition. i think he was just taking the p*ss outta the fact that so many pros do lie.

i think kamili lies the most - or muscletech telling about his lifts.

585 bench, 800 deadlifts, etc.


also, darrem charles or flex claims 80 and 100 lbs. front and side raises

I can believe Kamali's lifts, but they are misleading. Based on his videos, I bet the bench is in a smith rack with someone holding the bar , and the dead is a partial rack dead

alexxx also lies about his weight. he claims 240, but I am sure he would be much heavier!


 Yes, AVBG, Alexxx is so modest ;D
