Harley Breite - Appreciation thread

[Waller]

I still need to answer this. I apologize.

Apology accepted, my good man.

[old-school-lifter]

Dear Old School Lifter,
  Thank you for the compliment and here are my again, honest answers;
  1)  I have never competed in a BB competition because I am unqualified to do so.  I could never put on that type of size and get that ripped.
I have no calves.  And when I say I have no calves, it's not like when you guys bust Dennis Wolf or whomever it is, I actually don't have muscular
development around my calves.  In my defense, 1)  You don't need calves to get laid  2) I entered a Hot Body Contest in Daytona Beach during Spring Break and it was probably the most
awesome thing I ever did on a  number of levels and 3) No one ever won a fight by having big calves.
    One day, if anyone cares, I will tell what I think was a very funny story regarding my desire to get calf implants and the G4P (that's gay for pay I think)
that they wanted with it.
  2)  I was introduced to bodybuilding just shy of my 13th birthday.  A friend of my family used to travel to some place in Ohio, by himself, once a year to go watch
"some bodybuilding show."  Everyone thought he was strange because he got huge and he was, at that time, in his mid 30's.  As a Bar Mitvah gift, I got a training lesson
from him and he advised my parents to buy me a home bench press with the leg extension on the end and some skinny York plates, barbell and dumbbells.  I thought I
was going to look like Franco Columbo only because I too, was short.  Hey, I was 12, what did I know?  I read the magazines and would train but stop and then train but
stop.  The day I graduated High School weighing only 88 pounds, I turned to everyone and said, "You will never bully me again" and then I devoted myself to serious
weight training and martial arts.
  3)  I had been training karate and kickboxing for perhaps 18 years and then realized that I was missing a ground game and began training BJJ with Mike Mrkulic, David Adiv and Royler
Gracie and then continued and moved on with others and quickly turned it into MMA as well.
  4)  As far as "finding time," I consider time my most valuable asset.  I took up painting 2 years ago, I study languages, I took up piano 7 years ago and those things, along with my gym
time with Craig and my BJJ/MMA time leave me hard pressed for "free time."  I do own my own law practice to which I devote about 60 hours per week.  And yes, I do run my own charity for mentally and physically challenged kids.  As far as my wife, I am fairly recently married.  My wife is Brazilian (I only speak Portuguese to her but she is learning English of course) and she is very understanding.  The first day I met her, I spelled out all my flaws and "proclivities" which I could not or was not willing to change.  She said she could accept them and thus, I continued to be with her.  Interesting note, before meeting my wife, I was technically engaged to her sister, a 5 year younger version of my wife who is practically an identical twin.  My wife, understanding men and my own issues, has no issues when the 3 of us get together.  Yes, that is what I am saying- just what you are thinking- NO issues.
 5)  Lastly, "the 3 biggest bodybuilders I've ever met" is a difficult one to answer because they were all huge in the 80's and off season did not mean "off" season if you know what I mean.
In an effort to answer the question, I know Paul Dillet was a frighteningly massive person.  He was just like a dinosaur.  Another guy you wouldn't think was an off season Lee Priest.  Now before
you guys go nuts, Lee Priest was one of the biggest short guys I've ever seen in my entire life.  He "appeared" to weigh 280 at 5'4 feet tall.  The other guy was Paul DeMayo.  He stood up to greet
me and his hand swallowed my whole arm.  He was huge, dense and thick.  He had dimension to him and if you guys ever see what I mean by "dimension", you know that few bodybuilders, especially of
today, have "dimension."

thanks for the lengthy reply Harley!
great stuff to hear about how it all began for you!

[old-school-lifter]

Well that should be enough for you all to question my heterosexuality.
Just remember, if you come to Vegas for the Mr. O, you are invited to hang with us afterward too.

   At the risk of severe criticism, I now try to post my favorite picture of myself.
    The reason for this is a bit long but any of you old-school bodybuilding fans (circa 1980's)
might remember a certain Cybergenics magazine ad.  If you do, you already know half the story.

Outed!!

[calfzilla]

Would love to see what's under that white blanket.














No really.

[HarleyBreite]

Outed!!

Dear Chaos,
  Again, being new to this site, I am going to infer that "outed" means that there is now some inarguable proof that I am homosexual.
  While I have nothing against homosexuality (especially 2 hot chicks with implants and g strings wrestling in jello) I am just not homosexual.
  My long history with strippers will vouch for that (as well as the other stupid things men do in order to bang hot chicks).  Oh the receipts I have for
supporting single moms.
  Well, I promise to send better pictures once I resolve this 500 size limit.

Dear Las Vegas,
   Is it hard to learn how to take pictures from my Email Folders and send them here?
   I can't seem to get the box on bottom to let me send my pictures that are saved from emails I have received.

Upload to tinypic and post the links here.

[Las Vegas]

Upload to tinypic and post the links here.

harley.. you can try this or go to postimage dot org in a third tab (behind this and the two getbig tabs from before)..

when you upload, it will give you an address to copy or cut...

then click the pic icon like you did before, and paste between the sets of brackets (will see two bracketed IMG tags)

[Las Vegas]

last step is back on the getbig tab you're posting on

harley, for this just open the picture and save it to whatever folder you've so far been uploading from..

that's the quickest way to a solution (and those last couple posts are the way to put any pic on here w-o having a size problem)

You are a man of respect, integrity and intelligence.

So what on earth are you doing here?!?!

[HarleyBreite]

Yes it's mine and if I could figure this damn computer stuff out, I could prove it as I am sure to be audited.
I am trying to learn how to send the kooler pics I have.

A Hard Day Training

[HarleyBreite]

Harley, please answer me a few questions:

1) What is your favorite television show?
    Twilight Zone, Taxi, Family Guy

2) What type of shampoo do you use on that beautiful, lustrous, grey mane of yours?
    Paul Mitchell and then a special combination of conditioner and cream mixed together

3) What is your favorite food (italian, mexican, indian, etc)?
    Italian by far

4) What is your favorite genre of movies?
    I collect classic movie posters mostly from the 1930's and 1940's so anything black and white with great dialogue.  I like classic old horror too.
    I am assuming you meant, after porn

5) What is your favorite color?
    Purple and mahogany

6) How many hours do you sleep per night?
    Honestly, no more than 5

7) How often do you brush your teeth per day?
    I am a bit obsessive on that- probably 8 times per day but I try and eat 5 times a day so that may be why

8 ) What type of books do you like to read?
     Classic literature.  Usually American from say 1800's to 1978

9) What is your favorite snack to eat?
    Is pepperoni pizza a snack for you?  It is for me.  I am a food addict.  I crave sweets, cheese and bread.
    I would kill right now for a bagel or grilled cheese sandwich.  Bacon cheeseburgers also curse me

10) Do you sleep on your back, side or stomach?
    I'm not sure as I am not awake to notice but my bet is on my side with a handgun under my pillow and my Benelli M4 tricked out shotgun against the corner of my wall.

Harley, I am concerned about your brushing habits. I don't think its too good to brush your teeth that many times per day. The American Dental Association recommends  brushing teeth 2-3x per day.

My favorite food is also italian. What is your favorite dish? Mine is chicken parm.

By the way, I absolutely love cheese!!
