The cost of doing a National Level bodybuilding contest

[Bevo]

This is rough, but way more accurate than the OP's bullshit costs rofl...OP ever hear of fucking Budgeting, and not spending money frivolously like a fucking retard?

Whey, Chicken, Rice, Fish, Potatoes, Eggs, and Broccoli does not cost $150 a week. They aren't dieting on fucking 5,000 cals a day of Filet Mignon and fresh organic veg for gods sake.

Guys with TOP TIER GENETICS destined to be top 10 on the Olympia stage did not need $3,000 worth of GH to prep for a national show...I fucking guarantee Kai Greene could not afford shit like GH when he turned pro...I don't care how many strip shows he did he wasn't on GH, and neither was Ronnie to turn pro.

Hell rumor has it Ronnie didn't even run GH until fucking 97'...And the Sandows were soon to follow..

Thing is they probably get GH for free in exchange for services

I couldn't give a shit who you train with. I'm not impressed by most of today's bodybuilders because most don't know what training hard means. I've only seen a few who get it. Cutler, as an example doesn't even break a sweat, trains half-assed as opposed to someone like Branch, JOJ or even Meadows. Personally i don't know if you even know what training hard means. But even so, what they do is by no means athletic. Lifting weights is not an athletic movement any way you cut it. Do you think a bodybuilder would be able to compete on against a football, baseball or anything else in a competitive environment? Of course not . The conditionin, movement prep or skill isn't there.

Thing is in a real sport like football not many people can really play like running the 40 in high to mid 4's , eye hand cordination, speed, power, agility, etc..

But in lifting weights ANYONE can do it, just the matter of poundages used but that's irrelevant

Technically anyone could play football too. I get that you all love to downplay BB. But if trainings not athletic, what is it?

Personally,I`d call it more physical than athletic.

Not really. Your average grandma wouldn't be able too but she can def lift pink dumbells 

Ping pong is athletic 

[wes]

Contact Checkers is a real sport!

I agree to disagree..it's real to me dammit

I agree to disagree..it's real to me dammit

Now that is the only good response!

[Lustral]

The only "sport" where money matters more than talent, discipline and dedication. With enough money and access to quality products literally anyone can be a pro. I do mean win the O but just to get a pro card. With enough hgh, insulin and pharm grade igf anyone can be a mass
monster. AAS is of course a given but will only take you so far. The make or break point is how much pharm grade hgh you can afford.

Off the top of my head - showjumping. Good horse costs hundreds of thousands to buy, then stables, maintenance and transport. Result? 70 year olds in olympics.

Most people dont realize this but it costs alot to compete on a national level

For anabolics alone, around $2000-$2,000  gh? 10-20iu/day... cost varies. chinese gh will be around $2.50/iu, US Pharmacy gh is double or triple that. - Get Kigtrophin

Then most guys use Test, Tren Prmibolan, Winstrol, Anavar,Anadrol, Cytodren Arremdex, HGH, IGF1,AND cYTOMEL - Can't run all that at once unless you have a liver and kidney in the frig...pick 2 and be on your way

dONT FORGET ABOUT $250 IN FOOD PER WEEK TO EAT TOTALLY CLEAN.
Tanning for 8 weeks,$!50 per month -
Airfare to the show $600, Hotel Room $200 per night for 3-4 nights - Get tickets in advance
Protan, dream tan Hot stuff, or whatever $100 - Dream Tan sucks - Hot Stuff and Protan is 25.00 together
Entry feees $250
If you hire nutritionist like Hany or Chad $3500 - Nope...
Rent a car $300 - CATCH A BUS LIKE DARREM CHARLES AND DAVID HENRY
Clothes that you will rion from protein $150-$200 - GO TO GOODWILL
Posing trunks custom made so they dong hug you private area $80 - Posing Trunks From Andreas - $15.00
Binge food after the contest $200 - Since when does a large meat lovers pizza from Dominoes and a 2 liter Coke cost 200 bucks??

Lifting weights training in the gym is not athletic at all. Go to a college football strength and conditioning practice and you will learn very fast how out of shape uncoordinated and weak you really are. Or go to a track practice and run 10 400s. You will have a heart attack or puke your brains out and quit after 5 minutes.

Any asshole can pump iron for an hour every day.

I played ball in college and I remember we had to get up at 4 am and be in the gym at 5 to do our off season conditioning. The night before We would all be dreading it soo bad. At least 4-5 of us would puke especially the first few weeks when we were out of shape. That was hell!

I played a sport every season 7-12 grade trained all summer long and then played college ball. Goldman was I in shape I was a really bad son of a bitch when I look back. I only lift weight now and do cardio. I'm so far out of that shape I was in its sickening.

Getting GH from someone with AIDS isnt expensive, and I'm sure they run into those types of people through the G4P

If you can't afford them, step onstage naked or in underwear.

[Complex Carbs]

What doesnt think bb isnt a sport is an idiot.If you are a competitive athlere.You got to do 30-60 minutes of cardio in the morning, then tan..When you get home practice posing for 30-40 mintes to help bring out detail.Plus it brings out the muscel fibers even more.Go home prepare your meals for the day.Work.
Then after work go to the gym train, then do abs, then do another 30 to 60 minutes of cardio.
You get ripped you need athletes 60 -120 minutes of cardio per day.Plus if you train intensly that makes it even harder.If that isnt and athlete I dont know whta is.
Pool, and darts are not athletes,niether is bowling.
I bet most people coukld pose for 30 minutes straight.Or do 30-45 minutes of cardio twice per day.while on low carbs

Hey bro, serious inquiry.

Do you even lift?

That kind of money is a drop in the water for most people actually able to afford it. People build 30k rally cars just to race recreationally etc.

Atleast you know everybody on that stage cares about what they do. There are extremophiles in every kind of activity imaginable but as long as they love what they're doing I dont think its right to class it as a mental problem, just extreme passion.

You can either respect what they sacrifice in order to achieve something that means that much to them or not, but if thats the case id have to wonder why you come to getbig in the first place.
