Do you really believe the Pro's write their own Column?
« on: January 03, 2007, 09:15:13 AM »
Okay I believe John Romano, Lee Priest... hell I believe Greg Valentino writes his own Column for sure on MD, but seriously can you imagine Gustavo "Iwantagreencard" Badell sitting down once a moth answering questions send in to MD? Same can be said to Dexter Jackson.]
At least in MD "all" they do is answer Questions send in by the fanboys, but Flex on the other hand has some very well written Articles were I seriously doubt a person like (Markus Rühl) can write them, and I don't want to question the intelligence of some of the Bodybuilders (apart from Badell's) It's just the factor that some of them don't even speak English that well, leave alone writting an complicated Article about nutrition or Bodyparts and the training that goes along with it.

  Perhaps they receive help in the field of grammar, but I believe they write their own.

Would be a lot easier to write the artikles themself and just print the name under neath.

MAYBE Lee is going to spill the beans since he does not need to hold back anymore.

Not only do these pros not write the articles published under their bylines, their muscular development isn't solely attributable to genetics, diet, and exercise. Sorry to have to be the one to break this to you.

Only SOME and that's if they WANT to. They are given the option and it has to do with money. For maybe an extra few hundred bucks a month if they answer questions forwarded to them but then they face deadlines and majority of these bigtime BB's are way too unreliable so for a little LESS money they agree to let the magazine use their likeness and word the answer in a way where the reader thinks it's them. ie...spanish, street talk etc...

 I'm in tight with a writer for Ironman Magazine and he told me how true that is. You guys really actually believe that Ronnie Coleman does his 'Q/A' in FLEX?

 Waaaaaaaaaa hahahahahahahahahahahaha hha!

 It's sad that some newbie fanboys actually do. A question can come in that goes...'Ronnie, what are the best exercises to promote the most muscualr development in the entire body and do you reccomend free weights over machines? '

 In the MAGAZINE his answer is well written, articulate and very very scientific.

 In real life he would answer just like this...

 "...eh...well you know...basically eh...basically you gotta lift dem heavy weights and eh...you know just eh...basically lift dem weights and like make sure you do lots of reps to make the muscles grow and eat good food and rest...basically thats what I do".

Chris Cormier wrote his own column. He was arguing on the phone in his DVD about how he should get paid for all of the columns he did months before they were due.

If Ron harris ever quits, you'll notice all the pros would simultaneously sound a little different in their columns...

Are you kidding me?? They put their name to whatever the sponsor tells them to. DUH!!! That's how the game runs. I too will be signing my face and rights to whoever is paying for it. I can't expect my 'ol man to pay for all my photo shoots, suits, travel etc.. this year. They say what they are told to say, just as I will when I do my photo shoots, give my opinions, etc... Oh yeah , check out my friend Melissa Dettweller on the BuffBunnies website...I will be with her on there soon

I've been creeping on these boards for awhile before registering, and even after registering I haven't made any posts.  But this is just TOO funny not to say something about.  I remember thinking the same thing when I read a q/a of his once...you hit the nail on the head.  LOL!!!!
