Hey Phil u fat fuckR u reading this u fat fuck
to think we dressed like circus clowns back then i didnt care it was cool wearing all that stuff.i had tons of gorilla wear,T-Micheal wear ect and to be honest i havent found nothing quite as comfortable as that stuff from the 80's. i miss the 80's,great times
Actually I think there has been an improvement since the Ronnie -Jay years .
u know whats funny is that when they said RELAX back in the day it meant RELAX on stage,pure example is these pics here,look at rory and bob,they r slightly flexing their muscles and it looks great. then look at ron and jay and phil and kia ::)man how times have changes
They would look like shit compared to Paris and Leidelmeyer, if standing really relaxed... Just look at Cutler and Heath, although for different reasons, both have horrible structure and shape, The Shrimp would disappear and The Fridge would look even blockier and shittier...
That is a legendary pic/capture of Leidelmeyer and Paris. Epic. Usually Leidelmeyer seemed to fuck up his contest preps though and come in soft. He would be huge in the offseason and then lose muscle mass AND be soft come competition time.
Leidelmeyer had a phenomenal physique... Never saw his back, but from the front, even though he wasn't super wide, he had a perfect blend of mass and aesthetic... Those black-and-white gym pics are legendary... Incredible how him and Mendenhall never became pros, far better bodybuilders than many of the bloated oilbags on the Olympia stage today...
Yes, there where several guys during the 80s who where incredible but never went pro. Compare the leidelmeyer/paris pic to Coleman/Cutler, the latter two look like shit. Those physiques of the early to mid 80s are my absolute favourites.
