[Overlord]

Have we all seen this, or is it just me and several others?

[Stark]

short as fuck

[Overlord]

Five foot nine

[Mars]

fucking huge.

Huge but flawed in so many ways. Didn't seem to mind pumping himself full of anabolic drugs but when it came to getting cut properly he chickened out - had to go to Nigeria to compete against 160lb monsters to turn pro - what a loser.

Oh yeah, and his lats were too high.

Dude has an extra X chromosome or something like that. I read that in an interview. He's the definition of genetic freak. And I love how people rag on him for being smart about not pursuing a career in a hopeless sport but instead became a fucking doctor. I have a lot of respect for Victor Richards.

This is from his myspace:

"As a bodybuilder, I have always strived to share my message of ultimate health with the public. Despite my good intentions, however, some individuals have distorted or misinterpreted my words and actions in other bodybuilding forums. Others have also criticized my bodybuilding career because I have not competed. I want to clear up any misconceptions about my career and my philosophy—not to boost my ego, but instead as a way of letting my fans know that I am committed to helping them. My fans should not be misled when others attack me without justification or provocation. All I want my fans to know is that when I get at the true essence of the sport of bodybuilding, and when I understand what it is truly about, I realize that the material trappings associated with it mean very little in comparison to the holistic, mental and spiritual benefits. "

Just stumbled on it. He's a pretty interesting person

hahha wow people can actually learn something from this guy:

Rather than focusing on competing against others, bodybuilders should instead compete with themselves, pushing themselves and striving to be their very best rather than focusing their energy on defeating others. I do not compete because I want to live a life of ultimate health, in which I feel good about myself; I do not have to defeat others to feel fulfilled. I am reminded of Bruce Lee, who gained a massive following in the martial arts, but who never competed professionally because he viewed his sport as a spiritual art. Like Bruce Lee, I prefer to compete within myself rather than against others. Unfortunately, bodybuilders often try to master something or someone outside themselves rather than looking to master themselves first.
