1970's legend, Richard Baldwin. 70 years old facebook

The guy is still a beast. Looks way better than Robby Robinson at 70. Scroll deep into his posts to view video and pics of him at 70. Guys arms are totally insane. Well built old school muscle that aint leaving for shit.

He looks good.  He also looks dinky short standing next to that woman back in the 70s.  Why any adult would crave attention from the Faceplant crowd is beyond me.  Those gnats have the attention span of a Fake News "reporter" from CNN.

He used to post on Ironage. Got into a heated argument with John defends about which one would win In a virtual posedown. Pretty funny how serious they took it.

If he is juicing at that age to post pictures on the internet he is a fool who is insecure with low self image. I want to see the pictures of him clean for a year. That picture will never make the internet.

Yep. I didn't want to be the one to say it but yeah. That what I remember about chatting with him on Ironage. He seemed quite a bit insecure. Joe Meeko was posting over there a lot at the same time and was so psychologically fragile. Nice guy gave great advice but obviously emotional issues. Sad Joe took his own life around that time.

It's odd because I always saw pics of these guys and put them on a pedestal. Which was not entirely my fault the wider mags really did a great job as portraying bodybuilding as a noble life endeavor. I have been slightly disappointed almost every time I met or talked with one of my child hood idols.

Some of these responses blow my fucking mind. Baldwin is a legend. The guy is 70yrs old and a true pure bodybuilder. All of a sudden guys are getting butthurt that he may be juicing. Who gives a shit. At best minimum doses. And what does it matter. He would still be a beast without the stuff. Pathetic....Baldwin is a class act. Smart dude who stayed in Florida and taught college. Trained his ass off. Competed at a nwtional level and didnt make a living sucking cock.

It's insecurity which drives us to look good in the first place. The person who is secure most likely looks like crap.

never seen a more spot on post than this one

of course they all have fragile egos, that's the trademark characteristic of a true narcissist

i agree that baldwin looks good and who cares if he does juice. but he isnt a "legend". people throw that word around way to often just like the word "hero". baldwin was and is a decent bodybuilder. he deserves credit for sure.

I agree. Baldwin is just a second-stringer pro that yes, was around in the Golden Era, but he ain't no Arnold, Mentzer or even Roger Walker. Keeping in shape gives him some relevance now, but that doesn't change the aforementioned fact.

Ironman Magazine did a Legends series interview with the man. Something tells me that Ironman owner John Balik...who was around throughout the entire peak of bodybuilding has a clue as to what constitutes a legend. I hate the term...even though I used it. But Baldwin was awesome and competed during the great years.

If I recall correctly he used to train and do couples shows with Laura Combes (who was considered by some to be too muscular back that).  I think she drank herself to death at a pretty young age

She died from cancer. Not drinking.

One of the few champion bodybuilders with a valid PhD degree.
