The competitors are free to wear any trunks they wish... most of the time it's not an issue, but I can't say I don't cringe every time someone feels it's necessary to hike them up their ass...

always change in shows...some last, some don't.  Judging is the same format...202 is now the 212 ...as most know, we now have the much anticipated women's physique division, which should be a pleasant alternative....and one which I predict will explode over the next year or two...

The trunks have nothing to do with it. People in Arnold's day thought his trunks were just as "gay porno", as you claim today's trunks are.

Besides, the men's physique competitors have shorts that go past their knees. What's the excuse for that one?

The change that I don't like is the rule that only the winners of the "small" shows qualify for the Olympia. That makes no sense, especially if you're trying to make the Olympia better.

Case in point, Brandon Curry didn't win a pro show. Yet, at the O, he beat FOUR GUYS who did (Yamagishi, Nunn, Richardson, and Alves). Heck, Richardson barely cracked the top 15; Alves placed "16th".

Wow I didn't know that. I thought they changed the rules to make them wear the thongs. Why all of them wear that I don't know. I'll be wearing some similar to arnolds day.

they usually dont train hard in videos, they just grunt and moan somewhat but the bar speed is telling the tale


in fact ronnie's double with 800lbs had pretty high bar speed


but at least he actually put monster weights on the bar

Of course it's mostly show, the sweat is sprayed on water and stuff. They can't afford to tear a muscle for a photo shoot. But I still think Ronnie trained heavier than most.

did ronnie use real plates?

is such a bar speed humanly possible with 8plates on each side of the barbell?

looking at those HARDCORE VIDEOS i cant stop but think i train with higher intensity


it looks like they always for 3 reps in the tank when they rack it


but then i think maybe they have to train with submaximal intensity to cycle their volume and max percentages in an intricate periodization scheme

not likely...anyone who knows Ronnie, knows he trained like a madman every workout. in hindsight, I would bet he wishes he would have backed off...unnecessary and counter productive at a certain point.  Dorian did the same thing...
