Great show overall. Dan S asked some good questions and was better than the last few times.
Chic was solid but a tad more subdued , perhaps due to Dan's more animated , upbeat questioning.
I could tell that Bob Chic got a tad antsy over the "what do you want to tell Bob, about his job as athletes rep" to Melvin
Both men acted in a very professional manner , which is good for the sport.
Melvin is an intelligent man and well spoken. That along with his type of physique, will help promote our sport. I am 100% certain to go to the ASC now that I know both Melvin and Tony Freeman will be in it.
The only negative is the obvious lack of "technical details" when it came to how Melvin could get more ripped/shredded look. He did admit he needed to suffer and I think we all can infer what kinds of things that involves with him saying it. It would be nice however, if the pros could be more open about various contest prep drugs, such as diuretics as well as AAS and HGH , etc. Since they really can't do that, it leaves the door open for the drug myth culture we now are in. I suspect that the truth is not as sensational as some might think, which would burst a lot of pro wannabe's dreams.
I do agree with Bob Chic that the ultra shredded grainy look is an individual thing and some have it while others never will.
The interview with FLEX mags Shawn Perine, was a good compliment to the Melvin interview. It gave some unique insights into the relationship and lifestyle of 2 great champs; Rich Gaspari and Lee Haney.
I also found it interesting how the sport has changed in regards to being serious in a lot more places than sothern Cal now.
I will admit that when I listen to Pro BB radio, it brings me back to a time when I first started pumping iron and I feel like a young buck again hehe. Me and my old gym buddys would have loved hanging out in one of dorm rooms , listening in to Pro BB radio . Sadly, nothing like existed in my old college days.
