Opinions and thoughts on the new proposed male fitness physique divsion for 2011

[Howard]

I can sum up my feelings best with a pharse from Napleon Dynamite ; " Ooooooooooooooooohhhhhhh hhhhhhhhh"

[Azure]

I don't think this thread will end well and to add I think the target audience will be my male hairdresser and makeup artist.

[Ron]

I assume it is going to be something like this, which occured in Boise in April 2010.   I think about 20 male competitors competed here, as well as 30-40 girls (I shot the event at the expo). And if you think they are out of shape, you are dead wrong.

And about hundreds of women too, as judging by the contest in Boise.

They look like salvatore with muscles.

This is BS…ron, and you know it. 

You’ll walk this fence on this matter because don’t want manion to pull your backstage schmoe pass.

WTF they are in shape, but just like model wannabees...They look like a men's volleyball team

solid pussy pulling physiques there!!

I guess this is where the girls will be, the gay guys go to bodybuilding contests. 

[~UN_$ung~]

just a fucking embarrasment, the thugs who run the NPC/IFBB arent even trying to hide it anymore


they have NO loyalty to the sport, or the culture, or the reverence we all have for it..............the will turn it into one of those "model" searches in the center of shitty midwestern malls pretty soon if they think it can make them more money



fucking embarrasment........


the whole reason i liked bodybuilding was cause of its underground nature, a coupel of weirdos making steroid connections and eating dry oatmeal..........now they are tryin to mainstream this bullshit


i for one, will yell with my wallet.............no more bodybuilding shows for me, no more magazines, nothing...........not that it will affect their bottom line, but i refuse to support these gangsters (and thats what they are, corrupt gangsters.......minus the toughness)

hahaha, beautiful

Reminds me of the time I would eat oatmeal with cold water cause I was working on site all the time.

[johnnynoname]

not to make this thread about me ^tm but I would do pretty well in one of these contests

too bad i'm not gonna pay the entry fee...not that i'm cheap- i'm not gonna pay a entry fee solely on principal

you try to make every thread about you

LOL, not sure if Ron fears anything excpet someone stealing his orange chicken.

Every one of those guys is cut and looks like they would do fine in a novice or jr div in their wt class.
The baggy knee length shorts look silly. I see no reason for this division myself.

[clued-up]

This division is perfect for guys who don’t bother training legs  Also perfect for guys who don’t want to boatload high dosages of steroids, insulin... gorge themselves with insane amounts of food and live the fucked up *bodybuilding lifestyle*. 

Hell, this look is a major step in the right direction. Out with the disgracefully bloated oil bags that embarrass themselves onstage today... shameful.

These guys have an attractive look that screams health and vitality.. a look that will actually appeal to people.

This fitness division.. along with the bikini division could possibly pump a little desperately needed lifeblood back into bodybuilding.

No you wouldn't. (no homo)

[johnnynoname]

you try to make every thread about you

exactly which is why i'm trademarking (ie^tm'ing) the use of the term "i'm not trying to make this thread about me"

No you wouldn't. (no homo)

well, at the very least, I can use this as a tool to find a rich sugar mama to sponsor me...............lmao, yeah right.......there will be as many straight women in these audiences as there are straight men at tapings for Oprah

[saucetradomous]

Are board shorts mandatory posing apparel?

I suspect you might do just fine based on your description. BUT, no offense , your honesty about not paying an entry fee speaks volumes of what this might mean. Fitness lifter guys are NOT likely to fully supoort this and just enjoy training and pulling pussy. right?
If the NPC loses a sizeable % of serious bodybuilding fans like me, would enough fitness guys fill in the gap?
I don't see other fit,gym lifter guys like Salvatore spending ticket $$ to watch other similar guys compete.
Top male bodybuilders have a lot of fans that enjoy the sport. WE buy the tickets and support the shows.
 Lose the hardcore BB base and the whole thing folds like a house of cards in my opinion

[TacoBell]

You're thinking what im thinking... no reason they still can't wear thongs

I think you will have more women at an event like this, make this in a bar at night than at all BB contests through the year together.

Have you ever seen a Chippendale audience?

[~UN_$ung~]

does anyone else fucking Hate "board shorts" as much as i do...........for a show like this


i mean, they cant even go with those MMA-type boy shorts to require a LITTLE thigh development


like these kind ..........or the kind of shorts George St. Pierre wears





guys in this division can literally never train over HALF of their body...........chest, arms shoulders, abs..................2 biggest groups .........back and legs...........can be left alone

been there done that

and yes, you make alot more money (cash, mind you) stripping than you do in any sort of physique contest

[Howard]

Making $$ is a separate issue from being in a REAL sport and trying to win.

It's the same thing, idiot, only that one is for gays and one is for women.
