Title: Dareem Charles
Post by: Mobil on September 09, 2006, 10:25:07 PM
i was watching the 2003 bfto and the guy seems like a very nice guy, very modest. my question is... does he have any sponsors?? he has won quite a few pro shows based on his conditioning and i dont see him with any sponsors. you would think he would be sponsored but i never see him sponsoring anything. anyone know if a company is sponsoriing him?

He did say he would take as much drugs as would keep him competitive. 4th at the Europa, 2nd in Montreal. Not bad, but could be better. He was awesome a few years ago, and still not bad today.

From what I've gathered he's always been light on the drugs. In one of his interviews on PBW, it was mentioned that when he was first competing in the IFBB he was natural, but started using AAS eventually to place better at larger shows. He still advocates not using AAS until you can't take your physique any farther without them. Given, this was from him, Chick and Dan, but I'd believe them on this.

Yes, that's where I heard it, too. Since Darrem has never kicked up a stink or been a jackass, I believe him. Besides, his physique speaks for itself.

You use a picture of a lat spread to justify your statement about him needing to train traps? Is that supposed to be a joke?

He's one of the more under-rated pros out there. He has won his share of shows.

He was beat - by some better bodybuilders that day - that is it . It can flip back the other way at any time.

Bullshit. He's over-rated and boring.

His head looks like a torpedo, his only killer body part are his arms.

People say he has flow and is aesthetic... I don't see it. Is it just because he is small in comparison to other pros? ???
