Robby strikes a pose once again.

[Never1AShow]

Robby is as relevant to your average older gym rat as Christie Brinkley is to your average 60 yr old woman.

He is genetic elite one in 10,000 or better and also has a lifetime of training on top of it.

stop terrorizing Basile with those old people images 

Lol. He'll go insane.

[Julio Ceasar]

Does this man have wife kid family? Or all alone?

Im only seing an old mans struggle to survive life. Lifting iron is the savior!

I think he has at least a daughter, probably divorced long ago (or never married). Anyway... he's blessed to be able to survive like that, only secelt few can enjoy that kind of life at his age. Pretty much nothing can bother you when you are in a great physical shape/health, regardless of age.

[Teutonic Knight]

Lol. He'll go insane.

& Basile is only 2-3 years older than R.R. 

OBW, Basile "forgot" to compete against R.R. ( & defeat him) on Ifbb Mr.Universe

What do you think his cycle is these days?  What chemical cocktail keeps a man looking like that at his age.

He looks impressive  hard to believe he is 69....

However he has asked/demanded too much from his body .... Imagine putting your joints,tendons,muscles etc under the stress of lifting ,pushing and pulling for over 50 years non stop  !!

In other words he has to be in a lot of pain when he gets up in the morning,  or when he gets home after a workout or everyday regular activities  taking pain killers advil,motrin etc


Even the pro's after 40 do it,  they just wont say it to the public.



WoooSSSHHHHHH

This is speculation being posted as fact.  You have no idea how he feels - he could feel great.

My Mum is 72, crippled from osteoarthritis and in near intractable pain and struggles to walk to the letterbox, she would give her right arm to have the physical capacity that Robby still has.

I've red/saw multiple times him saying that he hasn't had any serious injuries ever and has no pain, and it's obvious from the vids he's still lifting heavy, even at his age. I doubt you'd make it to 70 while on painkillers constantly.
 You think Ohearn is on pain killers too? Dude is lifting crazy heavy and is over 45. I don't buy it. They are healthy livin' maniacs, wouldn't take that route imho. Must be genetics of gods and meticulously throught out strategy of homonal/nutritional/physical means. What is interesting - what is actually working that good to keep these tissues healthy and injury/pain free for so long.


edit: I've been doing crazy heavy behind the neck barbell presses for many years, yet I don't have a slighest discomfort because of that, and I know plenty of guys who strated with me, but can't use even a half of that weight already. It depends.

Look at that. Dude moves like a young man, you can't fake this if you're rusty:

LOL ... I have an idea how pro athletes feels after 20 plus years  of intense trainer, and bodybuilders are extremely obsessed with "training their bodies" does it take a toll on the body? it sure does....  but your'e right , maybe he does feel great... with 55 years of training under his ribs.


 I hope he does (Arnold's voice)

I'll post it again, My Mum is 72, crippled from osteoarthritis and in near intractable pain and struggles to walk to the letterbox, she would give her right arm to have the physical capacity that Robby still has.

She is on high dose narcotics just to get through a day, getting out of a chair causes her unbearable pain, given the option between that and Robby's predicament, I know which one I would opt for.

Anybody critical of Robby is just plain JEALOUS.

[da_vinci]

Haven't seen this one. He can wipe the floor with guys more than half his age, that's just insane:

What league are you a pro in?

[da_vinci]

You really think it's possible at almost 70 to be doing this if in a lot of pain/constant painkillers?

[Pet shop boys]

What league are you a pro in?

Nice try.

Youre going to the extreme of both ends ....

Yes, you have average people (specially women) that didnt dedicated their life to Physical activities deteriorating with age....

My point is, Say you get a retired MLB pitcher (after 20 plus years of abusing his throwing arm) he walks away from pro baseball at the fairly young age of 40 he does exercise, stays in shape enjoy life etc and don't have joints pains and all that uncomfortable crap that comes with wear and tear....

Bodybuilders go to a doctor when (they can't take it anymore) and when the doctor tells them to stop they wont just listen  , yes they look "healthy" and muscular but you'll be surprised they can't even do regular stuff of everyday life  (when no camera is around) because of  constant pain all over their body ..... again, Hope Robby feels great (no jealousy here)    lol

To be fair, my Mum was  a career nurse and she says her problem was made much worse by the constant heavy lifting they did.  Nursing is tough on the body when it comes to lifting patients (well it was back in the day before technology caught up).  It is hard to use good form when performing the types of awkward lifts the nurses used to do.  She only stopped working about six years ago, her deterioration has been quite rapid unfortunately.  Osteoarthritis is a bitch.

[Hulkotron]

Nice try.



WooSSHHHHHHHHHHHHH  EL CHAPO

"Nice try" at what  I think you may have misunderstood.

You said "I have an idea how pro athletes feels after 20 plus years  of intense trainer"; poor grammer aside, does this not imply you have some personal experience with the matter?

Most athletes who have trouble physically in retirement have had some sort of traumatic injury.  The evidence for intensive physical activity being beneficial for health and overall well-being, at any age, is overwhelming.  It absolutely does not cause chronic pain as a general rule.

People with labor-heavy occupations (or especially if they spend a lot of time kneeling/squatting) often have a high risk for osteoarthritis.

Interestingly it's not very common at all in runners, who load the hell out of their legs.  There are things to consider here.
