These pics make me laugh man..
especially that stupid head to head pic with phil and the other dude.
even when i was a kid, i thought it was so not cool!
also very early in my life i knew some top amateurs, and saw things..... dark things.... the way it really was.
i never looked up to any bodybuilder, never!
sure some look great , but why look up to a pro? bb is not a sport, not an accomplishment!
when you have the connections, money and the balls to do boatloads of drugs, ANYBODY can be a PRO.
but do you want to be one?
IV lasix before every show, real healthy

, that is btw what causes the grey skin you see on some bb.
"when shit goes wrong , no worries man i have an IV drip with me...!", a quote by one bb i knew.
amfetamines/coke/mdma/and then valium to sleep. SAW it many many times....
one dude from our gym almost died, cramped up Dillet style, was the first time i heard a grown man cry of pain!
a certain pro i knew, did a guestposing with a hole in his asscheek the size of a baseball..... 2 days earlier dude was in the hospital to get an abcess removed.
and the females... 90% of them are coked out whores.... really... never would date a female competitor, 90% are fucked in the head and have daddy issues.
female bodybuilders with hair on their ass, you know like a freshly shaven male has on his face....very charming!
guys that had not taken a shit in like 2 weeks, because of extreme diuretics use.... painfull as hell!
notice that of all the things, steroids are not the problem!!!! it is the other drugs that harm the bb!!!!
could go on and on, don't know why i am telling this, just felt the need to...

btw i do love bb , to me it died after the late 80's though.....
today it is a freak show, no talent required, just connection and money.....
look at berry, this IS bb! and he still is in great shape being in his 50's.....
