Robby may very well be the "missing link".
-
Pretty solid routine: deadlifts, bent-over rows, seated cable rows, pulldowns, dumbbell pullovers.
-
Robby is the MAN for doing these training vids with Ric, solid good guy...

From this video you can tell that Robby knows about bodybuilding more than all the trainers of Gold's Gym Venice combined together (including Charles Glass)

Still one of the best ever pics from 1977,nearly 35 years ago.
-
I used to love those old training shots of Robby training in raggedy shirts......looked like a friggin` animal.
-
Robby rocks. While other fellas his age are fragile and slow, this fella pumps that iron and doesn't give a shit. Couldn't ever tell he's 65 if I wouldn't know.
edit: just watched the second part. Fukk me, these abs are nuts. Dude's shredded lol..

18 DAYS UNTIL HIS GUEST-POSING APPEARANCE AT THE 2011 MASTERS,DEC 10TH

is this show happening? Who is in it? very quiet, being such a legendary lineup and HUGE payday.
-
Hard to believe a guy who was in Pumping Iron is still competing and looks great. Not to mention he made a very successful comeback in the 90s and won the first Masters Mr Olympia.
-

LMAO... A lot of knowledge in this board.
-
Nice to see an old BB legend who still has a "healthy" physique.
-
How the hell did he manage to abuse drugs for so many years and still look great. ??? I mean, Arnold, Franco and the rest look nothing like this guy.
-
I just hate people braging with their abs like they got something. Its all gh and hormones. But I guess they have taking it all the their life and now belive its the "hard work" in the gym who made it ::)
Life time drug addicts! Yeah!
-
He looks like nothing with that dark long sleeve and without it's like WHOAA!
-
Cool dude.

Come back when you'll succeed at taking that stuff for eons and look shreded and jacked at age 65. It may be very well quite a "hard work" to be able to pull this off...

Yes and he is a real lifter too. I remember reading the mags in the 90s when he was lifting with Cormier for a while and Robby deadlifted more than Chris, who was supposed to be one of the strongest pros ever. We won't see guys like him or Ronnie or Arnold again.

Good memory! I recall the same thing: Cormier trained with Robby and was stunned at how much he could pull. (Of course, IIRC, Robby was fully-loaded at this point, prepping for one of the Master's Olympias he should have WON over stupid dwarf Flavio and a smooth-as-silk Vince Taylor.)
Then again, Cormier and his gang, including Flex, Paul and Rico, were always decent show-off pressers, but none of them were known for rowing and pulling the kind of Ronnie and Dorian weights they should have. It generally shows in their backs, too. Paul's back was a joke. Flex's was nicely detailed and thick in the middle traps, but his lats were, by his own admission, lacking; Rico? LOL; and Chris? He had good back development, but we all saw how he compared to the other guys. He probably should have beat Flex at the '99 Olympia. Same said for Shawn Ray. He was WAY more complete and didn't have a bunch of balloons in his delts and arms. Still, it wasn't enough.

Don't be so thick headed boy. You would look like garbage no matter what drugs you took, or the doses.
-
Robby was never underated..he was a huge smash when he hit the scene as an amatuer, and kicked mucho ass as a pro at a ton of contests.......got tons of coverage in Weiders mags.
Deadlifted over 700 pounds at over 50 years of age.
Great physique to this day and a true legend in the sport.
As far as not working hard goes,Robby trained his ass off all the time..........never came in looking out of shape whether he won or lost.
Some of the best intercostals and arms ever!!
Yeah,I like him! ;D

Go wash your mouth out with soap for speaking such blasphemy towards "The Black Prince" ! :)
I`d say he had a wee bit more than just abs and still does.

Yep, they were both preparing for the Olympia, Robby for the Masters and Chris for the Mr Olympia. I didn't have Flavio placing above Robby either, which he did only because of his conditioning, although Robby looked great too.
And you're right about their style of lifting. If you had a time machine and transported the pros from today to the 70s, they wouldn't be able to handle the lifting. On the flip side, if you brought guys like Arnold & Robbie to the present day, they'd still lift their butts off rather than rely on drugs and lukewarm training like most of today's guys do. Which is why Dorian and Ronnie beat guys who had better genetics for shape but not the heart to lift hard and heavy with a serious commitment and focus (Flex, Dillett etc).

all that needs to be done from you is lifting one leg of your pants and showing them how old school training builds quads and hams.

When I met Boyer Coe eons ago in his prime,he looked like an average sized guy in a black Golds Gym warmup suit....took it off and looked like a human sculpture......big,thick,and almost perfect proportions.

Saw an article in a muscle&fitness from the 90s that mentions robby was inspired to train after seeing a pic of joe weider in a mag. No jokes, it says that

Hate to ruin your guys party but Robbie is a total wanker in real life - great physique but beats his woman with his fists, had his lady at the time work two jobs to support his drug habit whilst getting ready for a show in Europe then when he got there met another woman and had an affair and withdrew from competing all on the back of this other ladies hardwork who payed for his drugs, food and flights there and is yet another two faced liar regarding his use.. guys a toe rag and deserves a bullet
-

Excellent explanations, not only how to, but also why. Will try some tomorrow morning.
Best back/arm/chest positioning information that I have seen so far. No only a great builder, but he also has the ability to give great tips in a simple and effective way.

good point...many BB'ers explain how you should do certain exercises but not WHY....I tried his methods when I went to the gym today.....pretty good techniques..I felt it

And If he wanted to portrait an image of the "good husband and family man ", he'd probably look like shit today with replaced hips,hair plugs,funky hair color,Heart surgery,face lift, and the list goes on.
WOOOSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHH

whats wrong with beating women ?

They whine to the cops and get you arrested eventually. Real hassle, especially for a bodybuilder. When you're in the klink you can't eat broccoli, rice and chicken 10 times a day. And if they even let you use weights, they don't have anything worth a fuck for isolating your rear delts (bent over raises? Psh, please. Welcome to the Stone Age).
:D Seriously, I would never hit a woman I love. But I can almost understand the need to at least slap a woman across the chops a'la Sean Connery ... some bitches' verbal abuse lasts a hell of a lot longer than the burn from a quick slap. As in, forever versus maybe 30 seconds.

I'm going to call BS on Robbie's claim that he's stronger today than ever. Isn't it good enough to still be working out at 65, why do you have to throw in such as lie?

There was a video on his blog, like half a year ago. A video/pshoto shoot for Iron mag. He really moves some serious weight for any age actually...
