Labrada seriously looks like a Chuckle Brother nowadays. He looks like he has dwarfism. Good physique in his prime though.

Why do I hear only the intro and not the voices?

That's odd, it works on my computer.  There have been some problems with uploading to YouTube but I thought this one went well.

The Top Gun theme is your intro!? Really? Come out of the closet already.

And how exactly did you know that's where it was from?  ;D  My friend [and cameraman] recommended the intro song and I thought it was a good fit.  He said you are allowed to use as much as 30 seconds of a commercial song which is what Dave does at RXMuscle.  My friend actually knew the song Dave was using as well.

You did fine, but did Labrada snap at you for vouching for his product after the camer was off?   ;D

LOL!!!  I didn't think about it that way.  I am motivated to put on some size after the Olympia.  After I place top six in the city in my powerlifting meet on Saturday at 165 after which I will post the videos on here.  I did not have any chest workouts in September but I worked up to 290X2 on Sunday for bench so I am hoping for 300 at the contest but who knows.  It's a good starting point for when I get on a bulking program.

I've never read those things because even from day 1 i knew they were bullshit, I thought this was common sense?

As a young naive person who wanted to believe the ads were true, it wasn't hard to do.  MuscleTech makes a point to create a scientific sounding ad and I wanted to believe I could put on 23 pounds of pure muscle with Cell-Tech as Greg Kovacs did.  In 2008, the ads got even more outrageous with claims of up to 44 pounds of muscle.  The end result: MuscleTech is a quarter billion dollar a year company.

MattC...

Why do you always look uncomfortable when you interview these people?

I felt that the Olympia and Arnold would be trial runs for these interviews, should I plan to pursue them.  What I mean by that is that these are the first interviews I have done so I didn't expect to do a great job but I did expect that I could learn from a lot of my mistakes.  One of them being that I really do believe that a "bodybuilding reporter" should actually be interested in bodybuilding.  Frankly I have not been lately.  It was more something I did years ago and lost interest in since then.  But even Ron Harris who has legit 18-19" arms proves that a person can be a very good bodybuilder and still take heat from everyone about not being in good shape.  Still, I want to put on some size now and learn from my mistakes.

It's the nervous sexual excitement of wanting to touch them so badly ... very much akin to how girls used throw their panties on stage to the Beatles

 :D

Also the reason his hand is in his pocket



5-4-3-2-1 till Matt cries and gets this deleted

A false accusation.

I didn't get your last post deleted.  Click the notify button if you want to see who deletes your threads then bring it up to that mod.  I wouldn't mind getting blamed for that if I did that but I didn't.  Just as I did not cyber-attack Alex23's board.  Eventually I just ignored the accusations and let him believe what he wanted.

I just posted a tribute article to Lee Labrada as well on my site:

http://tinyurl.com/39l4z7j

Lee Labrada and Rich Gaspari both have a similar story in the way that they placed as high as 2nd in their era and were two of the best bodybuilders of the time who later went on to become ultra-successful in the supplement industry.  I'm unsure of what Labrada Nutrition does each year in sales but the company did $18 million in sales in 2001 and has no doubt grown since then.  The company made the Inc. 500 list of fastest growing private companies in 2002, only six years after launch.  Lee has a degree in Civil Engineering and his intelligence has obviously translated to great success in the supplement industry after he retired from bodybuilding.  Rich is hugely successful as well.

Both are Italian...coincidence?  ;D

I was very pleased with the Olympia experience overall.  I'm not sure whether or not I will pursue covering the bodybuilding expos or not but if I do I want to learn from my experience and not repeat past mistakes.  One thing I really want to do is make sure the focus of the interview is on the person being interviewed and to try to keep the questions concise.  I want to be able to catch myself if I'm yapping when I shouldn't be and stop myself from doing so.

Some more notes:

1. Keep hand out of pocket as Swede noted.
2. Consult a gay guy to get some sense of fashion.
3. Fire Kill my barber.
4. Put on 40 pounds of pure mass before even thinking about attending another expo.

Classic Canadian diphthong going on with MattC.

Ron's arms are huge in person.  I think it's just that his muscle attachment sites are not as long as say Kevin Levrone, which gives the appearance of a smaller arm.

I also interviewed Dan Hill and I can attest to his arms being 20-21".  It's just that Dan is over six feet tall which can make it look like his arms are smaller than they actually are.

Layne does not have the guts to say a single negative thing about me.  That is a fact.


Also Matt, you need to do something to even out the dark circles under your eyes.  You look like a raccoon, especially against the stark contrast of your Vitamin D deprived skin.


Perhaps you should wear some makeup mext time.
