That pic is a few years old ( right next to it on instagram is the video the still was taken from) still impressive just not 70

Even now I think he's in pretty good shape. John Hansen interviewed him fairly recently and he said he was still in good shape. He was wearing a sweater so I couldn't tell but that's what he said.
Thats good genetics. Alternating years of crack use with years of steroid abuse worked out well for him.

OK here we go…
In the years I trained, worked, loitered and trespassed at Golds Gym Venice… nobody and when I say nobody, that includes everybody… nobody gained muscle and lost fat faster than Mike Christian. I swear to god, he would be on a six month bender (coke, crack, meth, booze) get off the narcotics, get in the gym, eat decently and train 6 days per week…
…six weeks later (yes, approximately 40 days) he would change from a skinny fat 185 to a tight, vascular, glycogen filled 230 pounds. Absolutely crazy.
Single best responder I ever saw.
True story.

Tommy how goes the battle my brother....any contests on the horizon?
Hope all is well.

So very.cool! Thanks so much for sharing that brother
Mike mentzer trained in the mid 80s with a young guy named Larry Pollack and he said mentzer morphed very quickly
Did you happen to witness this?
I'd guess it was in 85 or 86

Paul Dillett would give him a run for his money, and Dillett was lazy as hell, lifted super light weights
Levrone too, dude hardly trained, played music, and pounded alcohol like crazy in the off season
-
Both those boys were clearly phenomenal responders. I still think Christian set the standard.
It’s funny Dillet moved almost no weight.
Levrone was extremely strong.
Christian could be strong when he wanted, however frequently it appeared he would just do huge repetition sets while day dreaming. Super friendly guy in my experience.

And managed to be the top bodybuilder and retired healthy .

He wasn't day dreaming, he was high.
