Supp. Companies and Mags dropping BBers big time.
« on: February 05, 2015, 04:08:12 PM »
Shawn Roden, #3 MR. O, dropped from his Supp deal.
Dozen BBers dropped from MD.
Guy Cisternino, dropped from MD and BSN.

Is this the end of BBing as we know it?

Will Gay For Pay be the prime source of income now?

How will BBers pay for their thongs and oil now?

Rhoden dropped? Fuck man, some dark days for these guys it seems. But hey, the Olympia totally sucked ass last year. Time to reward the guys who actually show up. Not many it seems, so not so surprised here.

i dont understand why those companies employed them to begin with? surely any random decent looking gym guy would be enough to sell some protein powder?

The physique guys would seem to be where the marketing sweet-spot is. Not these bloated turtle-bellies.

You don't need bodybuilders to sponsor any supplements. Teenagers and newbies will buy these supplements no matter what. They don't buy these supplements because shown rhoden is posing with the supplement. They buy these supplements because they see all the bodybuilding contests and want to look like that. With the age of technology, people are being overwhelmed by the fitness craze. This alone is enough to get people out there to buy supplements. You don't need some meat head holding up a tub of protein to sell it.  ::)

It will be important to determine what tier they are according to the BayGBM tier-system. They will need to make extra cash somehow.

The bodybuilding world is an incestuous circle jerk with the mayor of bodybuilding in the middle.   Supplements companies pay bodybuilders to promote their supplements in magazines.  In turn, these ads generate income for magazine.  The magazines, bodybuilders and magazines are all dependent on each other because bodybuilding is such a small niche. It's inherently unstable.  If any part falls the entire scheme topples over.

Most of the supplement "contracts" are a few tubs of protein for
Mutual promotion....(see Blackstone Labs)

Even the few "pros" with "supplement deals" get paid in powder, not $

Social media is taking over endorsements. Easier and cheaper to mail some kid your junk product, so he can do a YouTube review on how "jack"  he got, vs paying some bber $$$.

Exactly, why pay a bodybuilder a 6 digit check when you can others to do it for chump change. Bodybuilding magazines are dying. They are half supplement ads. Most guys train in a gym for fitness and not drug muscles. The supplement companies can easily pay a male model 20K or less to use their picture with their snake oil. They don't need to pay crazy amounts to pro bodybuilders anymore.

Jay and the fake medic are trying so hard not to laugh in this pic - I bet as soon as the photographer was finished they both fell about pissing themselves.
