Bill GRANT - incredible arms
« on: October 14, 2016, 09:34:34 AM »
He looks great. IMO what bodybuilding is about, even if he is unspectacular elsewhere. Some people say that he sucked but I disagree. Also stayed in great shape until he got sick a few years back. I think a digestive issue?

He has had a colon perforation?

Was that from shoving something up his ass?  ???

Looks awesome for 70 y.o.

I spoke to him about it like a year ago. I believe the main health problem was his intestines, but there might have been other issues as a side effect of that. Dont remember. But it was very serious nearly fatal.

Looks great now though for his age.

Edit:Nevermind I was wrong there was a perforated colon. But he had to have his intestines removed during the surgey.

likely a colonoscopy, car wreck, or a surgical procedure.

He had way better quads there than Levrone had in 2016.

I saw him complete at his peak. Incredible showman poser.  Huge applause. His body was amazing. He couldn't build his small calves but everything else was there. Heard he lifted four times a week splitting his body in two.  He was one of the few of the golden era to always have a legit job during his main competitive career years.

He still has full forearms and triceps. Not atrophied and stretched like most older bodybuilders.

Late 50s/early 60s.

The main criticism was his calves in an era when it mattered. I'm not sure how tall he was but he looked tall and had long legs which exacerbated the skinny calves. Other than that I thought he was
very under rated. Everything else was there for his era. Wish he had been featured in PI.

He said in an interview that he brought up that prospect of the bbers getting paid a small amount while being filmed, and the movie crew got angry and deleted most footage of him.

Crazy body...
looks like one of the select few who had early access to a prototype of Vince's bicep machine.

I did not know that. Thanks for the info. In fact, thanks for all your efforts in keeping this board remotely related to bbing.

Bill had one of the best physiques ever....IMO. Long limbs...great symmetry.  Great body on the stage and for just looking impressive on the street. This is one of my favorite shots of him. And personally...I think he had awesome quad development. Near perfect. And even with the small calves...I think the entire look of his legs works well.

He also e-dated booty but it was a different dindu who prolapsed her anus.
