Title: Any CURRENT PROS look like Ironagers?

Why ask a question when you already know the answer?

You start about ten threads everyday which will go into an argument about roids and GH abuse and then you start insulting someone.

You should fuck more.  ;D

Jojo nitforo is somewhat of a poster child over at ironage.

I can't understand why.

Oh yeah i know. He has no calves and his quads are dreadful.

But hey, he's "aesthetic"

JoJo: I think in the 70s and up until the early 90s bodybuilders had physiques that most of the general public would not necessarily consider attainable, but found to be ideal and something they would want to look like. Now, due to an over emphasis on freaky mass, a lot of the top physiques just aren't appealing to the average eye. I am not saying that a limit should be put on muscle mass, just that we as bodybuilders should put the same emphasis on symmetry, proportion, condition and presentation.

Adonis - i think no matter what era a bber was from he would be perceived as freakish during his era. As the years progress we become desensitized and get used to things. A seventies physique isnt very freakish these days but i bet it was by then.

Gid forbid that in ten years time the physiques of this day might not shock.

Good post adonis.
Jo jo obviously has good quads in that picture....hams and calves aren't great.  Overall, he looks great to me.  Rusty Jeffers is another very good example as mentioned above.

Vander ain't a pro. He used to have a great old school physique.

Haven't seen anything from Mr Headband in awhile. I'm sure he fcuked up his potential trying to become big enough to please the gay judging at NPC contests, only lusting for mass.

Side Note: Why don't these judges give Markus Rühl a call and ask him if they can come and live in Germany, schmoeing at his gym?

Post by: sculpture on July 26, 2006, 04:08:33 PM
I had accidentally posted a link where the word "negro" was in it and one person got offended and said negro was a disrespectful and racist word.  I apologized for posting what I did and explained it was just his opinion that the word negro was offensive and that I actually think the word is a great one - very spiritual and one which I would much prefer to use over whatever politically correct term is used today.

Then people tried to argue that it was a matter of fact that "negro" is offensive.  Actually no - it's a matter of opinion, period.  I would call anyone trying to argue otherwise a moron - maybe not in those words though, but still.

if you go to ironage (from what i heard, never even been to the site) it's like Mayhem , but worshipping bb'ers who are old balls or dead by now.

here...you can display your worship of "old school" all you want, but when someone says it's stupid, don't get offended.  here, all opinions are welcome.

even from the homos.


Thank you both.

When the membership of a bbing board outright deny or refuse to accept steroids have a major role to play in the construction of great physiques, i feel that is enough to qualify them as morons.

At least here theres a greater degree of freedom of speech. I mean "negro", come on fer cryin out loud.

They neither deny drug use or refused to accept it . you simply don't know what you're talking about. Shawn likes to keep the steroid debates at bay because they always end up with members fighting . there are a LOT of Ronnie Coleman fans on that board just not a fan of Ronnie now , Shawn & Peter McGough have gone on record as saying Ronnie 2001 ASC is aomg the very best physiques ever shown on a bodybuilding stage !! there are a lot of members who attend many of the pro shows & the Olympia so its not like everyone over there hates the sport of today .

A lot of people don't like that site because they have a stricter policy in terms of their rules , if you don't like their rules simple don't post , but don't make blanket statements about the entire site becaise it shows your ignorance .

The reason why they don't get offended here is because over at Ironage they know what real bodybuilding is and what it took to get there, here most of the "children" on this board don't know their ass from a hole in the ground and would rather make fun of the true bodybuilders who actually worked hard for their physique. Maybe the "children" should take a lesson instead of bash them!

but honestly, the "people who know" what?  they can probably spout off the competitors in the 1970 Mr Universe, but is that qualitatively different from knowing about today's bodybuilding scene?  yea i know that its the "ironage" over there and thats what its about, but its the dismissiveness that turns me off.  and i respect Shawn for moderating his site really well, but the fact that they can't have an intelligent conversation about steroids (which this sport depends so much on) leads to just pent up shit.  like everyone's got a stick up their ass, and they're proud to show it off.  and i know that getbig has its own issues and problems, but at least we can all be honest here.  i might think Adonis is a retard, but at least i'll type it to his face.

Have you thought perhaps that drugs were not near as important in those times than they are now and that is why there is no point in discussing them.  Its not like today`s bodybuilders openly discuss that they are all made from drugs.

There were no drugs from the 1900s to the Very early 50s.  That time period is also covered in "The Ironage".  Drugs did not mean a thing then.

There were no drugs from the 1900s to the Very early 50s.  That time period is also covered in "The Ironage".  Drugs did not mean a thing then.

Just like training isn't as important as the drugs are today!!

um, i beg to differ. look, i'm not a drug advocate, but steroids have been prevalent in BBing since at least the late 60's. its a fact, blahblahblah who cares. but to have grown adults be so leary of it??? not that it needs to be discussed nonstop, but when it does everything goes to shit. and they lock the thread, start a NEW thread about how the previous thread was uncalled for, and reprimand everyone like babies. what the hell is that all about? is it good moderating, or facism?

but i seriously like the site, i really do. i feel almost shitty for having this opinion.

Dude, thats not what I'm saying, I'm saying that drugs are more relied on today than the training, back then it was just the opposite!

i agree with that in a lot of ways, but the Ironage technically ends in 1991 with Haney. steroids fall well within their chronological jurisdiction. and i think that the topic can be discussed intelligently.

yea, i can understand where that mentality comes from. and nostalgia is all well and good, but the industry today is what it is. being overtly negative towards it don't help much.

congratulations, you know how to work musclememory.com. but reeves didn't become a household name until 1958 when he starred in his first Hercules movie. he starred in muscle movies well into the 1960s. but hey, i got no hate for steve reeves.

They neither deny drug use or refused to accept it . you simply don't know what you're talking about. Shawn likes to keep the steroid debates at bay because they always end up with members fighting . there are a LOT of Ronnie Coleman fans on that board just not a fan of Ronnie now , Shawn & Peter McGough have gone on record as saying Ronnie 2001 ASC is aomg the very best physiques ever shown on a bodybuilding stage !! there are a lot of members who attend many of the pro shows & the Olympia so its not like everyone over there hates the sport of today .

A lot of people don't like that site because they have a stricter policy in terms of their rules , if you don't like their rules simple don't post , but don't make blanket statements about the entire site becaise it shows your ignorance .

Typical ND doggerel. Takes everything someone says to heart.

The fact that they keep steroid talk at bay you claim if because members end up fighting? Whats the problem, they can't discuss the role of roids without degrading into petulant arguments. I'd like to see them engage in discussions on the steroid board here.

Real mature.

Whats perines and mcgoughs opinion of ronnie asc 2001 got to do with anything? Particularly as you so slyly try to insinuate that the board isnt loaded with bias and hatred for the modern game. I suppose their "opinion" renders the board a welcome place for youngsters who perhaps arent as educated in the history of bbing.

Your'e methods are so transparent.

As for their stricter policy,theres an older thread somewhere containing peoples accounts on the some of the most petty reasons that that board has banned them for.

I suggest you read it.

i never said reeves took steroids.  but he was still making money off his physique well into the 60s.  but from what i recall, steeve reeves wasnt relevant to the conversation from the beginning.

Well it is relevant that you know that he was natural, that way you can educate yourself and anyone who thinks otherwise.

not really, i didn't have notions about steve reeves. you're the one who brought him up unprovoked. i pointed out that he made money off his physique in a time when steroids existed. and the fact that you continue to be his anti-steroid cock boy is pathetic. as if to say, "if i don't take steroids, i too will look like Steve Reeves". well you're not doing him any favors by bringing his name up, because YOU will NEVER look like Steve Reeves. and if a voodoo doctor reanimated his corpse he probably would'nt even like you, he'd just think you're a douchebag too.

Thank you both.

When the membership of a bbing board outright deny or refuse to accept steroids have a major role to play in the construction of great physiques, i feel that is enough to qualify them as morons.

At least here theres a greater degree of freedom of speech. I mean "negro", come on fer cryin out loud.

You made the claim that on Ironage members " deny or refuse to accept steroids "  and then proceded to label them as ' morons ' for doing so . don't make blanket statements and then backpeddle by saying I take everything to heart . they don't deny or refuse to accept drug use in the Ironage , seeing the site focuses on much of history of the sport and its heros , they have known about steroids from the begining , so if anyone would know its Ironage.

So for you to make baseless claims and label people ' morons ' shows your ignorance and you're exactly what their trying to keep out of that site . ;)

People they dont want on their site are people who have their own opinion that doesnt match the prevailing sentiment of the board.

Age is irrelevant. You could be 15 and as long as you worshipped the "ironage" (what a fuckin absurd term) you'd be welcome.

People are that site go so far as assert that a bodybuilder, simply by virtue of belonging to the "ironage" automatically qualifies them as superior to todays crop.

This is not true.

If someone were to point that out..................... ... you guessed it, a banning would soon follow.

Also get you facts straight. I labelled them as morons not because of their steroid denial but their blatant hypocrisy regarding calves and slavish devotion to bizarre criteria such as a rather flimsy use of the word "aesthetic".

Learn to read. ;)
