But serious, you're more than welcome here, but I'm getting tired of those bitter "modern bb is dead"-like complainers. No need to join GB in that case, so love the game or choose another one, no pun intended.

when guys like branch warren is the 2nd best bodybuilder in the world.... bodybuilding is on the decline in regards to physique quality

[mesmorph78]

I agree that Branch's success is pretty debatable, esp him winning the AC over Dennis Wolf. I also agree that the lineups 5-10 years ago had a better overall quality. I believe it's too early to say that 'BB is on the decline', sounds too dramatic to me. Beside that, pro BBing is only a small piece of the cake.

Branch warren


Man did you see the guts at the Arnold this year... It's not dramatic to day is on the decline
I didn't see one physique today that inspired me and they're we're thousands of bbers and some pros in attendance
My inspiration still comes from the 90's in regard to physiques...
Anyway man it's all down to preference

Kai "white towel" Greene looks pretty Big there.......

[njflex]

branch's arms hard for offseason and vascular,,jay size but soft and smooth looking,,,rest of jay is leaner and ripped for offseason,arms will never truly recover..

[Mr Nobody]

Branch looks mad as hell about something.

[no one]

so you really think that females dig huge muscles?

that was the point of my post dude

yes. they do in fact. and  they are typically hot and in good shape themselves. look at the fitness chikcs in the girls of crossfit thread. think theyd rather date a 160 pound 5'8 twink or a 6'2 220 stud?

lemme ask you something. you are a very insecure person. why do you think this is, or are you even aware of it?

I stayed up all night to watch the AC, and it was very, very disappointing this year. Dex & Toney were the only exceptions.
But again, pro BB is only a small part. I still see great talents on local shows.

Even Hyde had a gut. Wtf did they all get bad supps or does no one diet anymore?

that's a very vague question, insecure how exactly?

i'm very competitive, so maybe you're mistaking that for insecurity?

how about you and i have a little physique competition?

in fact we could put up our pics on a site where females could judge our bodies attractiveness

so what do you say?

I know a couple of females around here that might judge.

well he'd have the advantage here then, seeing as this is a site for peeps who are into "bodybuilders" and not "twinks"

it would be better to get a much bigger sample of judges

for example when they do uni studies, they need a certain number of participants to make it valid

thank you for cementing what im getting at.

and no, im sorry im going to have to defer from competing with you in this little contest. i have no need or desire to prove im more attractive than you. i just dont see the value in it. i wont expound further as im sure the whole concept would be lost on you, not to be condescending. lets just say 'you win' if it helps make you feel better.

For you guys and gals who forecast the demise of competitive body contests (muscle, physique, and all the womens events) I have heard that the NPC is one of the fastest growing amateur organizations in the world.

The funny thing is all I keep hearing is that bodybuilding is dead yet the audiences are double of what they used to be, the expos today have more booths then ever before in the history of bodybuilding. Every show, including nationals is breaking their records for entries, even local shows are bring in 150-200 entries. We may not like the modern look in comparison to the 90's but it is more alive now then ever before

Some good points. There were always bittered folks, so this isn't a new trend. I remember that even Arnold was in shock when he saw Dorian winning his first titles, by saying that he was too massive.
People, who complain over and over again should rethink why they're still joining this board. There are tons of alternative boards, from Iron Age to Men's Health, so why are they still here
Getbig is old school & modern bodybuilding, simple as that

Ya but if the audience has doubled that means your preference is in the minority, same with music, you say it is shit but if they catered to your taste there would be less sales.

For you guys and gals who forecast the demise of competitive body contests (muscle, physique, and all the womens events) I have heard that the NPC is one of the fastest growing amateur organizations in the world.

that is due in part to the physique and bikini contests and to the shitty quality of the bbing entrants.
There is a lack of quality when it comes to the bbing side, and more Pro cards are handed out, at the expense of quality. The head honchos see only money, and not the lack of quality that their greed begets.
They will pimp out bbing/physique/bikini until the wheels fall off. And that is why they need an oversight committee to watch out for corruption, and other things.
