the 90s were more entertaining, that's for sure.

these days everybody looks the same. back in '96'97 it was a big deal when levrone put on 15lbs of muscle.... now it's routine. the "specialness" or whatever you want to call it is gone. it seems wayyyy easier these days. take a guy with good genetics, add in 2-3g test, plus 1-2g more other shit, and as much cheap chinese $1.2/iu gh as you can afford and everybody looks the same.

the 'freak-factor' is gone.... everybody's a freak.

Everybody looks the same.....Gee! How many times have I heard that? The guys from the 70s said the same thing about the guys in the 90s.

you think bodybuilding is better today?

what about movies and music?  do you prefer jersey shore or seinfeld?

E







No I think bodybuilding is shit today. I like the 70's look and midsections and smaller legs.

I think there are many good movies today, many better than the eighties movies for example..

I did not say I was not old too. But I try to realize that it wasnt all better before, more like you're attitude was better before ;)

70's was the best. No ghey dancing around, trunks were normal size, and the competition was very good. (Arnold, Sergio, Zane, the classic gyms, etc).
And no insulin, HGH and IGF to bloat people up.

70's were cooler.

80's were much nicer.

90's were crazy big cool.

2000's were rude.

2010's starting sort of boring.

i totally agree.. my fav. eras are the 80s and the 90s..

yes the internet has a negative affect on bb.. you can watch mr. olympia on the net for free the next day after the show.. easy obtained easy forgotten.. also most of the guys in the 80s and 90s were more charismatic than the current pros.. now you cant say any of the top pros including mr. olympia has a big fan base.. the last bbr with a big fan base was big ron..
