why nasser gave up
« on: October 07, 2006, 05:45:42 PM »
my theory is bullshit placings that he had like 97 olympia, 98 or 99 asc (i forgot which one) so he just gave up.

Nasser ran his physique in the ground.


He regrets doing (certain things) over the course that has slowly ruined & changed his body permanently.

Nasser won the 1999 ASC. He then came in off at the 1999 Mr O.

Each year after that he got worse and worse.

From 1995-1999 He was a threat at the olympia. By 2005 he was benching 225 for 15 reps at Olympia

He probably just couldn't afford the gear anymore.

He's got more than enough money

Just one more for the Chad's body count of ruined bodybuilders.  Nasser's body just will not respond, no matter how much he takes now.  Also from an inside source.

Guys like Gary and Don Youngblood and the like were all still responding to gear into their late forties.  Why can't Nasser?  I'm pretty confident "receptor burnout" is a myth.

You'd feel differently if you knew the amounts involved.

Nasser ran his physique in the ground.

And kept going; it's a shame that his career went from nearly winning the O to not placing in the smaller shows :(

He was the first IFBB pro that I ever met.  He was guest posing at a show in AL around '97-'98.  Nice guy and very professional...

But Gary was known to be quite the juicer as well.

A supplement industry guy told me Gary never came off.  He just bridged all his cycles.  I've got to say that it seems to have worked for him.  Bastard looks great and pushing 50 :o

  I have it on good authority that Nasser never used gear...he just had good genetics.

Don't get me wrong; we didn't have dinner together or hang out, but as far as the whole fan/guest poser thing, he did the job as a pro.
  As far as getting to hang out with someone, the two that made the best impression while getting to hang around them under different circumstances were Darrem (nice guy who'd talk 30 min w/ you; very genuine type) and Mike Mattarazzo ( was straight up about everything and anything in the IFBB and drug use).

Whatever... Yes he was better than Dorian from the front THAT YEAR, but from the side and back, Dorian kicked his ass and took Nasser's lunch money.

Say goodnight Gracie. I mean, Nasser...

Not a myth.  If one ramps up too quickly or adds too much, this will happen (see Polumbo).

Also, Don Youngblood didn't even start lifting (juicing) until his mid thirties (at the earliest) - hence his window was later in life.

Nasser is the man. The guy once had one of the best physiques in the world. Top 2 at the O., and flawless from the front. You can't deny his accomplishments. He's one of my idols in BBing.
