Is Bob involved?  Is he competing in physique or just rallying for it?

I do'nt think he'd go on the show without something new to show getbiggers.  Either he's got a new company, a new job, or something new.

Good to have Bob back on the air.  I agree with limiting the qualifications to the Olympia.  Maybe just the winners qualify from the circuit shows and top 3 from the Arnold.

Dan, Bob, Lee and Chad Comments regarding this weeks PBW...
« Reply #16 on: June 06, 2011, 06:56:56 PM »
Regarding the statements made my Dan, Bob and Lee.

1.  Bob is 100% correct.  There needs to be no more the 10 people to do the Mr. O.  I've stated this in the past.  This is supposed to be the best of the best and IMO only the winners of shows should be qualified for the O and in the case that the winner is qualified then the second place person should go in.

2.  In regards to what's going on with athletes today?  You want them to come in better shape, condition etc?  Have the judges to hold more credence in those categories.  Obviously it's bodybuilding so you want them to have size BUT far too many times I've seen the smaller more defined/conditioned bodybuilder get the shaft over the larger less conditioned guy....THIS NEEDS TO END.

3.  You want them to compete more often, bodybuilders must be smaller.  As you already know it's difficult for the larger guys to come in shape many times during the year.  When this happens you have shows with 2nd and 3rd tier bodybuilders headlining shows. And guess what, we don't go to shows to see 2nd and third tier guys...So you want them to compete more often, CHANGE THE JUDGING STANDARDS cause we know the prize money won't go up.

4.  Oh yeah the biggest mistake ever made and Flex, Shawn, Kevin and many others agree with me is not counting the posing anymore...You excuse was it wasn't being judged the right way it was dropped...Why weren't the rules ever enforced and the judges told, "hey guys, we're going to count the judging round now on actual posing."  So for the first couple of shows when guys are getting bad placings for shitty posing they'll get the message and practice posing the way it shoud be.


5.  The thing that sets todays bodybuilders apart from the guys of yesterday is everything you said but it's the size today.  People are able to get in great condition what they aren't able to do is get this size at a young age.  So as I said before, put more credence in coniditioning, separation, tie-ins and posing you'l lhave bodybuilder turning pro at a younger age, a better lineup, better physiques and people that are more interested in viewing and getting involved with the sport.  This is progress Bob not adding 30lbs of slin muscle and adding 3-4 inches on the waist and losing the previously sharp physique.  There really is no debating this, it's the truth.



6. Though a young at at 31 I've folowed the sport since 15  and its trends this is the answer. Not what is going on.

What the IFBB and NPC need to start doing is making the sport more appealing to potential bodybuilders.  They've been so busy trying to attract fans, what makes a person want to take up bodybuilding competitively and try and go pro and make it a living?  Let me tell you, it's not Jay's or Kai's grotesque physiques.  And if you haven't noticed, they quality of the the bodybuilders in the NPC is quite bad especially when compared to those from the 90s.  We spoke about this before.

You want a better IFBB make the NPC better.

I understand the sport will never go mainstream and I'm not trying to attempt that.  What I would like to see is a better quality physique, better prospects ensuring a better quality physique for the IFBB in the future and thus allowing the bodybuilding to compete more often and enjoy a longer career.

they figured out that at the Olympia people wanna see freaks of nature, the only ones not liking that is the smaller guys, the crowd could give a fuck.

I personally do not get the whole big gut thing etc, its nasty, not healthy, but if thats what the crowd wants, thats what ya gotta do.

If you doubt what the crowd wants listen to the cheers when the big guys come out vs the better looking smaller ones.

Makes no sense but it is what it is

i think they just need to give up, make it a gay show, and move on, accept it's true roots.  If they keep it in this stagnating form it isn't going anywhere.

The crowd isn't cheering for big guts.  They're cheering for freaks and these days freaks come with big guts.  it's gotten a little better since the 2000's but it's still around. 



These days it's like you have people with no business on stage making a mockery of bodybuilding and bodybuilding can't do anything about it cause they are only working with the people that compete.  Time to the NPC and IFBB to recruit or make it worth it...Obviously they won't and it will fall upn deaf ears but if they want to actually make positive changes, what I typed earlier would def top many lists.

The state of professional BB isnt nearly what many of you believe it is...many more athletes have contracts and opportunities than ever before, the Expo style shows have many more people attending, prize money is up, especially at the Olympia as we are nearing the $1M purse...and despite the economy of the last few years, the supplement industry had thrived...

As for the physiques, any era of BB has its ups and downs in terms of depth...and people tend to remember the "good 'ol days" as just that...

BTW Dan, Bob, Lee, Chad, I challenge any one of you on my ideas to a debate and I'd like to see a coherant reason as to why physiques shouldn't look like those from the 90s of a higher quality (quality defined as conditioning, tie-ins separation and taper to the waist) vs. IFBBs definition of progress being bigger with less tie-ins, separation and taper.

Finally myself and many others would like to know the reason why a major part of the sport POSING has been forgotten other than the reason Bob gave.  They make the rules and it seems like it wouldn't be to difficult to enforce.  Presentation of the physique is very important...What we have onstage today in most cases is pathetic.

Bob can you say that the physiques we see today are better (better meaning size, shape, quality etc.) compared to the 90s?  Ups and downs?  Bodybuilding has shown great progress in the physiques of the men but I'd say around 2004 is when everything went backwards....Are the higher ups content with what they see on the stage today?
