[Marty Champions]

darrem charles looks all natural too me, he might use diuretics n such but otherwise hes not a big dude just knows how to get in shape

[Knives]

Darrem claims to never do cardio, even precontest

I was there Cheri I didn't have a chance to say hi. Thought you looked great though! See you in June.

Thanks chavez81!  Please introduce yourself when you come in June!

Stavios...where did you get that picture?  Where you there?  That was my show.  Darrem's son looked great as did Darrem.  A very mellow and likable man in person.

no unfortunatly I wasn't there, found the pic at Mayhem

can you say genetics

[legbreaker]

absolutly, looking like that and having the dedication to do a show at 16 is crazy

He does look good and congrats to him, but competing at 16 was much more common when I started.  I first won at 15 years old.  He looks good, but some of the teens in the teen class' I was in were amazing.  There was a kid from the Bronx named tyrone Barnes(trained at Tino's gym, if anyone is from there)...he was incredible...I mean thick, complete..not that shredded, but lean enough.

Either way, it's good to see guys building a foundation though hard work....If he takes it nice and slow, which with Darreem being his dad I'm sure he will, he will do good.

FUCK.. I thought I saw Vince Goodbum with 200% drugs

competing as a teen is awesome, I competed at 17 myself.
I would have started much younger but by parents didn't want me to train until I was 15 and they got tired of me asking them if I could have a gym membership

[legbreaker]

That's awesome, Stavious.  yeah, it's great to see a teen getting into it...bodybuilding for yourself, (before your interest in girls and such) is a great thing and can only have positive benifits.  The unfortuante thing to me is the strong influence of hormone use today.  In this case here I'm sure Dareem teaches him about hormones and the fact that as a healthy teen his are high enough to build good quality muscle with hard work.

Good luck to him.

I was at the show.  His son looked GREAT.  He has a tremendous future ahead of him, if he chooses to follow in his father's footsteps.

[tommywishbone]

He looks like Gumby.

In bodybuilding i don't think anyone has a "tremendous" future, lol.  It is good to get on stage, however.

[Karl Kox]

his legs are bigger then his dads

[kyomu]

Oh my god.... What a genetic! No wonder, his dad is a olympian...
