Talk to me in 5 years when Ronnie is living in a van down by the riverby Golds Gym parking lot



He has his own supplement, legions of admirers and eight Mr Olympias to his name.

He could sit at his phone in a wheelchair on dialysis giving advice and make in a day more than you make in a week while watching sportscenter and eating grits

You guys are fucking hilarious ripping apart quite possibly the greatest bodybuilder of all time   ::)

Whats up with that?

It's GetBig. No matter what you do. No matter how successful and accomplished you are. You will always be criticized by all the life winners on this board.

Let him be, he's just doing whatever he needs to do to stay mentally sane. Ultimately whatever we do is useless anyway. It's just for distraction.  :D

If there's something offensive about him it's the selling of fart powders he never used anyway. Same as Levrone, selling shit you never used and would never use and then lying about making a comeback to stay relevant.



Always a voice of sanity and just plain old good sense.

The greatest, but not the smartest. Compare him with Lee Haney, he got 8 Sandows as well and he's still blessed with a good health.

I don't know about Levrone, but Coleman was without a doubt, as a matter of fact, fully loaded on nutritional supplements...

I am not so sure he isn't suffering from some level of mental illness.  His self worth is tied in with his physique, which is degenerating.  The more he tries to regain it, the more he destroys himself.  How will he cope when he's totally destroyed his body to the point he cannot train at all?

So he should just stop training altogether so he doesn't "destroy" himself?

Everybody has something that gives them a feeling of meaning, self worth and happiness. There are worse things than lifting weights.

Nothing lasts forever. All of us will reach a point when we can't do what we love. All of us will reach a point when we cannot do anything. Just do what you love and fulfills you and enjoy the short time you have.

You're really that worried about him? Do you have any family?

Yeah, lots bb'ers do in fact use supplements, but in general bodybuilders will sell anything
to make money. There is some formulator and investor in the background and the bb just lends
his name to whatever. So if say a "PWO" is hot at the marketplace at the moment it will be in the supp line, for example.
It seldom has to do with selling stuff you really believe in... it's just about the money, the ultimate value for most.

I don't know what company Ronnie was sponsored by at the time but in one video you
could see Beverly International protein cans. So he was using something other than what he was sponsored by.

Who said he needs to stop training altogether?  How about training more sensibly to preserve his health?   I couldn't care less about Ronnie, as I was never a fan in the first place.  I was simply making an observation, the tenor of which went over your head.

He actually looked very lean and in shape before the last back surgery.  After the back surgery (third) he posted about how much pain he was in and it's vexing to see him doing this considering all of the surgeries and post op pain. Fusions can fail and with having cervical and lumbar fusions he should be careful. He could just do light circuit work to stay in shape along with cardio.

Yes.

He has demanded from his physique and organs way too much for way too long .......Every "athlete " after the age 40 starts listening to the body and move on to other things in life ..

At this point, Ronnie is not training or "developing his muscles" he is just destroying his joints, nerves, bones,organs  etc . (he whole self)  :'(

I think he looks great now. He looks better than the majority on this board. Problem is that people here are comparing him now to what many consider the greatest bber who ever lived. If he wasn't Ronnie Coleman but just some random guy in the gym in his fifties he would be considered way ahead of the game.

Of course he could do "light" circuit training. He could do yoga and Pilates if he wanted to. It would certainly be healthier. But I don't think Ronnie has ever put health ahead of what he wants and what he wants to do. If he should die tomorrow I doubt he would have any regrets. He became far richer than if he just stayed a cop. He traveled around the world and had experiences that none of us will ever have.

Ronnie is not your average person. Some people will never understand what motivates a guy like him. Some insist he has a screw loose. I think anybody who is the very best at what they do are willing to do things that others won't or can't. They are not normal people. That's why he's Ronnie and we are not.

No it didn't. You're not that deep. I tell you what. Why don't you write out a program for him. Tell an 8 time Mr. O how you think he should train. Post it here so that the rest of us can benefit from you wisdom, experience and success.

BTW, what exactly have you accomplished in life?

You think he's training to further develop his muscles? Stop training altogether would be healthier? Lifting weights, at a fraction of what he use to do, is JUST destroying his joints, nerves, bones and ORGANS? What do you base this on?

Since you think Ronnie is in such horrible shape can you post a picture of your physique, your much younger physique, so you can inspire the rest of us and give your advice more credibility.

He's just a former somebody trying to remain relevant in an irrelevant pastime.  He pretty  much has nothing else to live for except the past and he's obviously willing to sacrifice what is left of his "future" to revisit it, if only in his mind.

As witnessed by his multiple offspring by a plethora of gold diggers, he has the morals of a rabbit and doesn't care about said children.  If he were to live another 20 or so years and wound up meeting one of his many daughters he'd most likely be like a dog that runs into a grown puppy in heat and mate with his own kid without even realizing it.

Of course this most likely explains his being an over grown Simple Jack as it probably happened with his own father. Coleman is not the greatest of all time, but he is one of the most simple minded of bodybuilders and that's saying something given that bodybuilders are in general not known for being too smuckin' fart anyway.

I would assert that my post went well over your head.  Otherwise, you might consider the reference being made concerning the psychological factors that plague many athletes post retirement, instead of opting for an ad hominem rebuttal.  And I needn't provide my résumé, least of all to you.

For an irrelevant past time you sure engage in a lot of irrelevances as indicated by your over 4,500 post here.

Everybody lives for something. Many people, especially those who make their living in working out, lives revolve around the gym. There are worse activities you can do in life. There was a time I was working three jobs as a security job. My life revolved around being a security job. I wish it could have been the gym.

And somehow you know that Ronnie only married gold diggers and doesn't care about his children? How do you know that? Have you met or spoken with any of his children?

And, of course, Ronnie being the greatest of all time is an opinion but there are more that believes this than don't.

And if Ronnie is so simple minded why is it that he was been far more successful in his career than you will ever be?

Jeeze, so many people passing judgment and hate on Ronnie. A man who is just doing what he loves, is happy and isn't bothering anybody
or infringing on anybody's rights or freedoms.

Right.  Nobody is saying he looks terrible or has anything to be ashamed of.  In fact, he looks great. We've all said this.  He isn't like some who have completely let themselves go. He has posted on line about how much pain he was in and then to see him doing this stuff 6 weeks post op is just sad to watch.  That is all people are saying.

Assert anything you want. Fact is Ronnie > Mr.1derful.

And I didn't ask for a resume. I ask what have you accomplished in life. What have you done in life that makes you think you can pass judgment on Coleman and his chosen lifestyle?

And you started with the ad hominem attack. Don't cry when it comes back to you.

I'm sure he was in a lot of pain post surgery. Now he's back in the gym I've had so many injuries from my Jiu-Jitsu days. I can literally go from my big toe (broken) and go up to the top of head (concussion) and literally cannot pass an area that hasn't been injured in some way (broken ankle, torn calf, knee surgeries....) I'm always in some kind of pain. Mostly back, knees and shoulders. But I'm still in the gym training with more intensity than 95% of the people in my gym. There are some things I just cannot do (squats, bench...). But I'm not going to quit no matter what. I imagine Ronnie is a far more determined man than I am so I don't expect him to either.

The bottom line for me is, is he doing what makes him happy and fulfilled. It looks to me that he is. And again, I really don't see anything extreme in the training that he is doing.
