In this video you get to see their actual contest weight which I think is pretty cool.
-
The last time the IFBB had a weigh in. They were all 10bs lighter than they said. Haney and Demay looked amazing! That was a damn good video

Starts like an 80s porno...

Strydom had to drop a lot of weight for the O that year b/c he was beat by Phi Williams a few weeks prior at the Chicago Pro

great video,,,those yrs till 90's was modern bbing time to downplay the obvious that pro bber's use drug's to get to there level but are still smart,hard training,diet to get there,,,and the main outlet to get info,or pictures or who were the 'pros'was magazines,,,,today it's expo's ,,internet,,lost it's appeal,,it always was underground,fanatical base and creeps,individual personalities but it had more overall appeal then.

I Recall alot of the Original footage out of this Video was from Lee Haneys "Animal Kingdom" workout VHS back in the Day, His depth and Thickness though-out his Physique was the Standard of the era, bicep size aside he was as Complete as it Got for a 245lb bber in the 1980s couple that with his Conditioning he was the eras Freak, like Yates and Coleman after him he just had that Extra Dimension to the Physique Most the others didnt Quiet have, this shot below is from 1989 where it was considered (up to that point Haneys worst ever Shape... 1990 being the worst) Reported @ the time as Haneys Heaviest ever 253-254lbs.

Absolutely, he STILL is a class act has done alot of Charity work for troubled kids etc long after his BBing days are over.

that video as corny as it was production wise and platz's commentary was great example of dead era of the sport now,,,those guys talked with passion of what they were doing,,trained hard like it was all or nothing,,,today let's cruise on training not all but most and lets drug's do the work ,,

wow, haney was bigger, fuller, and with a better shape and pop than everyone else. Dude was simply in a whole another class that time.

Victor Richards looking large but afraid to get on stage.

I was right there wen they were filming that in Golds. I've seen that clip a million times and always try to find myself but godam if I wasn't in the tent out back feeding my fucking face wen that particular clip was filmed. I was standing a couple feet from Gary wen most of the filming was being done. Phil Williams was there too, he seemed pretty quiet n was hanging out in the food tent out back, as well as Cameo Kneur sp? and Andreas Cahling n a bunch of others I can't recall. If memory serves me right this was the day after the actual O. They edited I guess to make it seem like he was posing before the show at Venice but in reality like I said it was after. Maybe Gary can clear it up. Anyway there was a tent in the back parking lot n they had a bunch of free catered food. It was pretty cool.
-
Everyone looked so good back then-no bloated faces, no guts....but you can see why Haney was king,he did outclass em all IMO.... and lol at christian talking all that smack and never delivering....
-
Never liked Haney's physique. No aesthetics.
Everyone looked athletic back then, so much better than today.

Was there by any chance a tent with food ?

DeMey, Paris, and Ray turned pro that year

Following year, 1989, Labrada won the Olympia.
Unfortunately there was a terrible mistake, and the sandow was given to Haney

That's cool...that would have been something to see. 8)

Lebrada was also a King of Aesthetics 8)
and Paris had a great physique but his legs were too big for his upper body IMHO
so would you agree with my assesement of Labrada and Paris, Jamie?

Yeah, keep on preaching, keep on preaching.
Labrada was an intelligent bodybuilder and built a very balanced physique. Got a little bit lost due to the midget status. But great build.
Paris' legs were too big for his upperbody and i thought he lacked chest thickness, Paris reminds me of Chris Cormier, complete and good lines but lacks something.

From what I remember, yes. Also saw Reggie Jackson, Shawn Ray, Chris Dickerson, and many others.
It was the day after the O. Golds was having a Grand Opening.

Labrada had a Very Balanced, polished Physique and all that, however as Jamie imo rightfully pointed out the guy (no disrespect intended)....just didnt have the "wow" factor and was very short etc etc, Great BBer just never really Olympia Material imo heres a few more from the show in Rami Italy that year

Was bodybuilding as homoerotic then as it is now?

Paris also had a slightly long waist.

yep, you're right
and a long torso makes the legs look bigger
-
Who was known to have the biggest package in '88?
-
Classic footage. Thanks Danjo.
-
very cool doc! Thanks for sharing!
-

Reggie was a regular back in the day. He had tremendously large forearms for a ball player...for anyone for that matter.
-
who do you think was the most aesthetic back then?
i'd say DeMay
Funny story bout Demay. He would go from his incredibly unbelievable build to the softest tub of fat farmer looking piece of shit in no time flat. Like someone deflated him and then filled him up with estrogen. The other guy that I would see do this was Ali Malla. Most of u won't even know who the fuck that is prolly.

Ali and his orange van. He got that van in the 90-91 I recall, so a little after the video.
Excellent shoulders and back on Malla. Trained with Jeep a bit in the mid-90's.

Best period for gym equipment too. The old FLEX and Icarian stuff was awesome.

yup. No one has ever made a better tricep ext than the old Icarian seated with the cable. I own a bunch of old classic flex stuff too. Star tracs new strength line looks amazing btw.
-
This was the best era ever for me.
Great to see this vid.
I remember in those days there was no internet and you had to wait months to find out who won.
-
I was there also, you can see me in the vid. At the time i was friends with Phil, we worked together at a gym in Stl a few months prior.
Did Phil Williams ever say why he didn't compete in the '88 Olympia? He should have done it after winning the Chicago Pro show that year.

Paris' elbows were too pointy too...
Problem with paris was like cormier, too perfect, too much flow and proportion, no freakiness
-
Y'all welcome... ;D This vid brings back memories.
-
btw did I mention the food tent?
I think so, must've been good food that day
Was Cameo Kneuer as hot in person ?
-
lol @ Strydom weighing in with his ball cap on. Epic insecurity.
