Strydom Colorado Pro

Kinda reminds me of that NOC comeback he attempted in the '90s. High expectations, looked great from the front, but ended up with average placings.

I love a Strydom thread  :D

That pic of his rear lat spread reminds me of a Paul Dillet shot - it's almost like they never learned how to 'rotate' the scapula or something.... weird...

Interested to see what people on here think about Gary's 'gut control' in this vid.  His breathing is very apparent...



But his signature pose still hits the mark  8)

gary in 1991 , and 92 was awesome.  he was smart he took the wbf money and never looked back

plus he was paid well by the weiders when he returned because whenever the put him on a magazine cover it sold well.

He was over 50 , less hype than Levrone and less arrogant as well.

91 he looked insane. 92 was off. like most wbfers due to the steroid scandal.

He looked great. Problem was not his back, but rather he did not know how to pose his back. Overall a very impressive physique and better than many of todays pros.

you got that right, gary from the front, looked amazing.  he is one of the few pros, that made his money and walked away and kept it.  he was smart he got paid very well by the wbf, much more than anyone in weider was making at the time,  wbf folds , comes back and joe signs him to a nice contract,  because he sold alot of magazines. that is why gary never competed much he didnt have to. he also had a successfull clothing line as well at one time

He looks to be taking the Palumbo/Yates approach to longevity - there were more hormones in my steak last night than Gary now appears to have in his bloodstream - sensible man - he chose not to die for us b1tches  :)

Smart move Gary (we know you've got an account here  ;))
