I guess ALRI know that Melvin can get people interested in a contest involving himself. It matters not if he shows up conditioned. Heck, it is even more amazing when he shows up looking like he never trained for the show! Who else but Goodrum can do that?
As everyone knows it is my experience that just about everyone is an expert in bodybuilding......even Goodrum! He does on line courses but has no clue how to build muscle or get rid of fat for contests. Does anyone believe ALRI will succeed where others have failed to get Melvin to actually join a gym and lift heavy weights? If ALRI really wanted to help Melvin they would pay for an operation to attend to his gynocomastia. Write it off as a business expense. Then pay for his membership in a local bodybuilding gym. Not sure how anyone is going to actually get Melvin to lift any weights!
What we want to see if a rematch of the showdown and this time on stage at the Arnold Classic. No need to have the show on shaky tables at the ALRI stand.
By the way, did anyone actually buy a Goodrum photo from Melvin at the Olympia?
