All extreme sports are hard on the body - I think bodybuilding would be the most difficult because of the greater amount of drugs.

good point but you have to also consider the amount of folks that die under the age of 61 that ARE NOT bodybuilders!!! yeah, the extreme part of the sport may caqtch up to sum individuals but the drugs IMO were far less than what folks are taking now!!  who really knows what they all passed from

Jorma Räty had a crazy back. I think he only did dumbell rows for back, nothing else.

How many Finnish men die at that age or before? Many, many, hard to pinpoint steroids as the cause.

Most pros do a combination of recreational drugs as well.

when all is said and done, most of today's guys will live well into their 60s.  

The hype is overblown.  Yes, they'll have some funky bone structure, as well as some internal issues due to the growth hormone.  and some will F themselves up with insulin.  But the majority will be fine.

Frank Zane will be 65 soon.

He looks phenomenal for 65, or for mosty ages.

He currently carries about 175 pounds this time of year.

He is very healthy, monitors his health closely, and has a thriving mail order and personal training/seminar beuniess.

So basically what you're saying here is that Coach has at least 12 more years of life to look forward to?   ???
