If everyone took your advice here Mes, there would be no getbig. GB is ALL drama. Look at any and every page and post, drama, drama, drama. You feed into it as well just by adding your two cents. You can believe anything you want, but Michael works hard, trains hard and lives for this sport. And being his age he has to work twice as hard as someone 1/2 his age ... such as yourself. But that is something you eventually will find out when you're in your 40's. And as far as being a "real" man ... it takes a "real" man to admit his faults, a "real" man to be comfortable in his own skin, a "real" man to be able to laugh at himself, a "real" man to ask for help when needed, a "real" man to put his family first and make them happy. Michael is all that and more. You stated you are 1/2 his age, to be truthful, you are still just a kid. We have gone through twice the amount of life and experiences then you. I know you are just offering you own opinion and it is appreciated and duly noted. And although you may all look at him and call him a clown, call him an old man, and whatever else, I would have to say I would rather have him be the man is he is today, then what you all seem to expect or perceive a 42 year old man to be.
Have a Happy New Year Mes.
@cheri.
ok i hear you..
obviously its your duty and right to defend you man
but take this into consideration everybody has dramas... i do... but im sayin it is not necessary to post pics and videos of EVERYThing... do u thnk mike is the only one that trains..has a wife buys his wife gifts.. goes to the beach...
if everyone posted pics movies etc etc.. what kind of bodybuilding forum would getbig be...

and i can assure u ur perception of training hard and mine are 2 different things... and that is quite evident.. i actually which i lived near mike so we could have a weeks trainin together... then u and him would know what seriosu trainin is about and bear in mind i have trained with bigger guys than mike...
and also ronnie coleman is the same age as mike.. so age is no excuse.... look even further serge nubret.. im sure either didnt spend 80% of their time posting video and pics everyday..
take into consideration....
a lot of guys on here have really great physiques... eg... .. minsdpin .. collusus...and a lot more etc etc..
in totality i think ive seen 6 different pics of mindpin ...
also the others know why.. they are busy being serious in the gym...training away
in contrast to about 500+ of mike... not to mention of you...
im not sayin dude shouldnt post pictures...and videos im just sayin... there must be a balance...
drama
-----
king kamali (shit physique) hence drama
craig titus (mediocre physique) hence drama
flex wheeler (great physique and genetics cry baby, story teller,lazy) hence unfulfiled potential
same with dillet
-----------
no drama
coleman (great physique) 8 time mr olympia
yates (not the greatest genetics, intense....worker.. serious real man) 6 time mr 0
....
i rest my case
