Recently, HBO's Real Sports had a segment honoring 92 year-old plus Jack LaLanne for his contributions to physical culture and weight-training/bodybuilding. WTF, have they gone nuts or something!?
I mean Real Sports just got through having a segment on John Romano and steroids with emphasis on the advantages of androgenic-anabolic drugs in bodybuilding. After all, steroids, GH, amphetamines, thyroid, insulin, diuretics, synthol, etc., are the drugs that have made bodybuilding (BB) what it is today!!!
The very idea that some wrinkly, old-fart, bodybuilder/physical-culture/health-nut, all-natural ("all-natural"-what the fvck is that??!), BBer like Jack LaLanne tries to emphasize such old-fashioned, out-dated, ridiculous, BB goals such as “health”, “longevity”, and “clean/decent living”!?? I mean in this modern-era of the great Arnold and Joe Weider, the REAL goal of BB is to try and look like a FREAKY vascular mass-monster like the real pro. IFBB BB HEROES of today like RC, JC, GS, and the freakiest of dem all ..."MR"!!!
Yeah man, the real goal of modern BB is to have that bald-headed, eye-bulging, vein-poppin’, acorn-testes, drug-bloated, vascular mass-monster, chemical/pharmaceutical FREAK look! After all, let's be honest, that's what REALLY matters in life!!! How can you compare the really worthwhile goals of BB …such as drug-bloating up to 300 lbs., havin’ 23-in guns, and bein’ able to bench bump 600+ lbs., with such RIDICULOUS old-fashioned goals as “health” and “longevity”!??
I mean, so what if you drop-dead at 45, have terrible health-problems, etc., these are just “minor annoyances” when compared to achieving that MAGNIFICENT pharmaceutical freak, vascular, mass-monster look…life’s REALLY worthwhile goal!!
After all, as John Romano preaches, the general public (gp) is sloppy fat/overweight and hooked on the “legal” drugs of alcohol and nicotine. Why, compared to the gp, the BB community’s “sins” of doin’ illegal BB drugs, dealing illegal BB drugs (love that Mexico connection!), livin’ off of the gay community, and occasional mayhem and murder, are really minor by comparison!
Why, just look at the great things anabolic-androgenic drugs have done for women’s bodybuilding! Turning skinny, timid. young girls into aggressive, masculine, virilized, “she-he’s” with deep husky voices and coarse/thick skin, with the Renee Toney and Iris Kyle “look”. Yes sir, now that is the drug-freak “really feminine” look!
Why, why...you only have to look at the posts on this Getbig forum’s threads to see just what a truly friendly bunch of fellas the BB community’s drug-stack altered BBer's mind has created! Just look at all of the friendly name-calling, personal insults, personal attacks, threats of physical violence, etc., that routinely appear on this forum. All such Getbig posts are really indicative of the highly intelligent, well-educated, courteous, and ethical, “mentality” that is developed from the mind-altering long-term use of huge stacks of "combo" BB AND recreational drugs (e.g. "The Craigers").
So what if some drug-bloated BBers occasionally go into ‘roid rage and intimidate, beat-up, and kill people (like those great BB icons Bertil Fox, Sally McNeil, and Craig Titus)…why, after all, the gp has their share of druggy mind-altered “psychos” too!
Yes, Jack LaLanne's physical culture and BB ideas and goals of “clean-living”, “health”, and “longevity” are absolutely ridiculous and out-dated in this modern-era of BB with its far more estimable BB goal of LOOKING LIKE A PHAMACEUTICAL FREAK…thanks, Joe Weider!!!
