HOW COME HE LOOKED HUGE AND MASSIVE AT 160PDS WHEN HE COMPETED IN THE 81 OLYMPIA? ALL DRUGS? I HEARD HE JUST WORKED HIS ASS OFF AND STUCK TO A CRAZY DIET VERY MINIMAL ANABOLIC STEROID USE. EXPLAIN THIS SCENARIO BECAUSE HE WAS ALMOST A NATURAL IN THAT COMPETETION. VERY LOW DOSES WERE USED.

IM NOT SAYING HE WAS NATURAL .I AM JUST SAYING HE DID NOT USE VERY MUCH GEAR MAYBE 2/10TH OF WHAT TODAYS PROS USE.PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW SOMEONE 160 PDS WAS THE BEST ON STAGE. IF YOU WORK OUT HARD ENOUGH IT PAYS OFF. IVE SEEN NATURALS AT MY GYM WHO WORKOUT EVERYDAY FOR HOURS JUST USE CREATINE AND PROTEIN AND THEY ARE SUPER FREAKS.THEY DONT COMPETE BUT EASILY COULD GET TO NPC LEVEL. NOT ANYWHERE NEAR PRO LEVEL BUT THEY LOOK PHENOMANAL.

You always say people who weigh 160pds cannot compete you should be more specific and say unless you are a dwarf because this guy kicks ass at 160pds and Danny did use gear but not that much . Your saying he used drugs that were not even around back then. danny did not use the key drugs like HGH and slin. and his test,dbol,deca,primo use was very low. He just trained like a mad man and like I said it paid off. You have to admit todays pros do not run 5 miles a day and workout like mad on top of that. he was just a gym rat. another hard working init2winit ####. Dorian was so big he couldnt even run he powerwalked how gay! I think all the old school guys look better because they got way better pharmaceutical drugs and didnt abuse them. Im just saying before you diss a guy who ways 160pds think about this man.You say like all of us that was not your era and you had access to more exotics so thats a lying statement those drugs were not around back then. And I swear he didnt megadose. Danny is what I call a real bodybuiulder. He wanted to win bad and trained his ass off

dude can't you read?

160pounds at 5'2 is equal to 5'9 215 pounds.... it;s huge!
padilla was a midget! lol...
he used as much as the rest of the guys at that time...
bodybuilders do not work hard, the drugs do that for us.... lol!
and hgh was around back then.... arnold was on hgh (experimenting) the cadaver type.
in the beginning of the '80's it was synthesized.
all of the anabolics of today were available, and better quality of it!
just no knowledge of slin use, and no peptides yet..

Haha.. 215 - 220 conditoned on a 5'9 fella is a fucking huge guy - alot of the current pro sizes or more so "weight" is because of slin and HGH, plus HMB

- we are talking contest ready condition here

lol philsulina won his first profesional show 214 lb lol if nto less 212 i think ...before carb up but it was somewhere 212 ,,ask him he has the exact numbers he will tell you ,,he won the damn show lol

215 5'10 5'9 conditioned on stage is very VERY big fella...anything over that is always insulina and gh in highr doses

do you understand arnold which had the best respond to hormones ,,one of them ,, but for his time the best...was standsing 6'1 230lb on stage....this is like 5'10 210...that was it ,,this was arnold .....

it is huge numbers you talk about,, try to be 215lb 5% 5'10 tell me where you get to mr bodybuilder...most of the fellas who say they are this size are doing it on insulina and hgh and! most importantly most fellas who claim to be 200lb and conditioned usualy are 6% 6-7% and hold some water...they are not dry enough and moment they dry they go right back to 188-192lb ....sometimes less..why dont you ask my pupil stavio and mr leafy buggy bug about those numbers a little..and they! got! good frames and they are VERY VERY SERIOUS about bodybuild,,those 2 all world is bodybuild ,,so you go talk to them a little ...

thats in his comeback in the 90's, and wbf days, he was bigger and still looking great

dont know if he was a whack job, or an idiot or a poser, as some say, but he was very charismatic and a fan favorite

I trained with Danny for 6 weeks during the summer of 1977. I’ve known him and about 4 of his steady training partners since then’. I also did an interview with him for Iron Man about 6 or 7 years ago. His training has always been the same… old school, little rest 5 sets of 12 reps on every exercise. 2 exercises per body part off season 3 exercises as time gets closer to a contest and 4 exercises contest season. Danny generally lost size and weight off-season and gained weight up to show time. He often only gave himself 7 to 8 weeks to ready for a contest which was when he didn’t place well. When he gave himself more time like the 81 Olympia (where he was shredded) and for the 1990 Night of Champions were he looked biggest is very, very good condition and placed 3rd behind Momo and Dorian. I’ve never seen anyone’s physiques make changes in size and conditioning faster than Danny. When Danny was training for a contest you might see him on Monday and 3 days later you’d swear his calves, arms, chest where an inch bigger.

Last year Iron Man interviewed Bodybuilder X a two part series (November 2010 and December 2010) and Danny’s drug use was discussed. I can’t give you exact doses but I can tell you he only liked 3 drugs and his total use was very low by today’s standards but probably higher than he admitted. I have no idea who bodybuilder X is but apparently he trained with Danny for 6 weeks in the late 70’s also with Samir, Bill Grant, Mentzers and Leidelmeyer.

Danny is probably one of the most friendly and humble guys in bodybuilding. He loves to laugh and tells the best stories of Arnold, Ed Corney, Ken Waller and the guys from that era.

Do you have a pic from that 1990 contest? Was that his last ?
