PBW Announcement - Episode #195

PBW Welcomes: Darrem Charles & Troy Alves (Replay Now Available)
 
Two Veterans....One Warning: "We're Not Finished Yet!"
 
During the past decade, few competitors have found their way to the winners circle more often than Darrem Charles. Since the start of the 21st century, only Ronnie Coleman, Jay Cutler and Dexter Jackson have won more often (Last year, Darrem ended a streak of 7 consecutive years with at least one IFBB victory).  On this weeks edition of PBW, Darrem visits as he prepares for a busy summer contest schedule, determined to silence anyone who doubts that he can still be a champion. -- Also on this weeks broadcast, Troy Alves takes a break from his contest prep to discuss his battle plans for next months "PBW Championships" just one year removed from his first professional victory.  – Presented by MuscleTech, the Voice of Professional Bodybuilding airs Live on Mondays at 8pm ET.

Darrem on PBW says hes in his 19th year in the IFBB.  How the hell is he still doing it?  Mad props.  Used to be one of my faves back in the day.

The real question is how is his liver and kidneys doing...20 years of juice ain't no joke.

I think the "studies" they've "done" don't mean squat.  Everyone reacts different to years of drug use.
If it were that volatile, Cutler would be dropping dead within a few years.

That's if you believe he's been juicing for 20 yrs. If you believe his claim of being natural, up until he won his first contest....then he wasn't making that claim anymore...

Trini Power!

How does he do it?  He doesn't train that hard and goes pretty light on the sauce.  Thats how you stay around for awhile.  He's got the right genes.

Definitely one of the more underated bodybuilders...

darrem was toiling around steady gains in the early to mid ninties nothing special,then later 90's to 2000's he got real pro sized and conditioning was spot on,everyone has there secret sauce 'mcdonald's too'.

He loves bis Mustangs. Doesn't he have a vid of him curling 125 or 135 dumbells?
And dude has some of the best bis in the business. Rank up there with Coleman's

Darrem has been very open with being Natty and also using Gear. He does not blow up 50lbs over contest weight. I am sure he has a nice no gear off season and spent a good amount of his early yrs building a great foundation...

Great bodybuilder, humble, honest and great physique...

Awfully quiet this yr tho-

The lighter guys hardly ever seem to have health problems.

Not sure about the dumbell curls never seen the vid but totally agree about the bis
this guy had biceps up there with beckles,robinson,arnold and coleman unreal, he s got
small joints so that would create an illusion of more size but here in this pic they would have to
have measured 20-21 inches.Why cant people like him be winning more shows?

maybe you should start to rethink the steady diet of bullshit you have been fed fro the media, LE, and politicians about the dangers of steroid use.

its certainly not without some risks. but overall, it pretty benign unless you really ABUSE the shit..........but anything is bad when you abuse it in large amounts.

McDonalds fries and burgers abused in large amounts are WAY more dangerous then steroid could ever hope to be.......not to mention alcohol and tobacco

One of the very few guys whose posing is worth watching. The man can move



THAT ^ is creative posing that properly integrates music and uses it to enhance the overall effect - not the retarded shit that Kai Greene does.

Before Kai I was a huge Darrem fan of his posing...guy is awesome.  Dude has the perfect physique.  Not too big (IMO) legs not to big also.  He's awesome and a good guy.
