If they're going to film something really special , Arnold needs to do a workout with Frank Zane and Samir Banout only two O winners still alive that actually competed against him.

If Zane or Bannout were to show up at Gold's Venice in the morning, Arnold would.  Seems like he's been there every day for a week or two.

Zane won’t show up. He’s 83 and looks like an old man who never trained.

Good eye - maybe a brain pill which Ronnie is clearly allergic to.

someone should inform Arnold that Mike O Hearn recently posted a video where he referred to his client as a retard because he couldn’t understand Mike’s horrible coaching cues during hack squats.

I saw this video. The client was wearing pants on the hack squat. Mike hasn’t faced any backlash for this.

He's a simple man and him and the gym/bodybuilding are married. I say let him do his thing, actually makes him seem sympathetic to me :D 8) It will be a sad day when he's done.

What’s your stance on Mr Sam Sulek?

Yea what else has he got at this point?
His legs are screwed but he can still train upper body so why not.
He does look ill though,  in the clip at the beginning it's like he's melting.

I doubt it, he hasn't suffered the enlarged head and morphing into someone else etc that comes with it, plus i don't see that mixing well with his heart surgeries and complications with them.

Looking like an old man at 83 isn't necessarily a bad thing. Still more functional and more interesting to watch workout than Ronnie's sad current state.

The anecdotes and comments would be priceless! just imagine;  Between sets

 Arnold  " I beat you in 1980"

Are you sure ? -  Zane  ;D

Arnold still has the energy he's always had, doesn't seem old, i saw him giving the award to mike katz at the arnold classic and was surprised how old he seemed and sounded,  was sad to look at.
Any idea how zane comes across these days,  is he still sharp minded, energetic?

Blah, blah, blah! Stop rambling like a retard and tell me what you think of my watch collection. Check out the Rolex Datejust. Silver dial, jubilee bracelet, my god... it even has a fluted bezel.

You're jealous as fuck!

Last year at 81, -

.

He's been in a few clips here and there in the last few years. His mobility is decent, looks wise he's got the thin limbed, barrel chested look that a lot of old bodybuilders get, which is fine considering his age.

i guess if your box of watches makes you happy then i guess thats okay. I think a Timex is just as fine as them. Expensive watches are not really appreciated or noticed by society or the average Joe. I guess have fun dusting them?

My apologies, Gene. They're not mine. I was just hoping to goad you into slagging off Brian's watches for a laugh. The Cartier Tank is cool, I guess.

That's not a watch collection worth showing to anyone who knows watches.  it's just like his body, he only looks like he trains to people who dont. No doubt inherited as he looks like he would be as successful in life as he is in the gym. Fucktard has never heard of the word humble.

What’s your stance on Mr Sam Sulek?
I’m NOT a fan. He looks like a smelly, greasy, 65 year old obese truck driver. He never should have gotten to where he is. He’s a walking heart attack and advertisement for BP meds. He gets out of breath just talking. Waddles around.

His eyes are all crossed, and his skin is covered in pimples and pustules. His disgusting greasy hair looks like it’s melted and stuck into his hat. He looks absolutely revolting in a video he just posted. Looks morbidly obese. He has no personality and is just a rambling, monotoned heavy breather.

It was pathetic when he was trying to pitch himself to Arnold in a recent video to star in a Pumping Iron reboot. Sad thing is, that in Sam’s mind, he really sees himself as the next Arnold…the next big thing in Hollywood.

Guaranteed Sam was counting on being the top choice to star in Pumping Iron the reboot. And in this delusional and wacky dream of dear Sam, as he would be acting out the film’s scenes, he would glance over and spot Arnold tearing up in the director’s chair. For you see, in Sam’s delusion, Arnold would be envisioning a younger version of himself in Sam during the filming. More than likely when Sam spaced out and zoned out as he spoke to Arnold, he was picturing himself hiding Chris Bumstead’s t shirt in one of the scenes, like Ken Waller did to Mike Katz. Then as Sam zoned out again, he was probably picturing himself running to the helicopter like Arnold, or clinging on to the elevator in the galleria like Arnold did.

It’s sad he got to where he is. What started off as a joke of people supporting his older videos…and pretending to listen to his worthless car ride manifestos…really snowballed into Sam somehow becoming famous. Sam reminds me of that mentally handicapped Asian singer from American Idol years ago. It’s a sad joke that has earned Sam notoriety at the cost of his health. With how he looks and sounds, there is no way his heart will last another 10 years. Mentally, his heart may be in it. But physically, his body and heart are shutting down fast.

He’s actually giving off a secure vibe from the successful life he lives being able to wear these.

He is a highly skilled real estate investor and trainer.

This year he is taking the year off from work to give himself a break before he starts up law school.

Methodical and cerebral are the best ways to describe him.
