2019 NPC Nationals - Lonnie Teper Awarded 'Heart of the Lion' award

[Ron]

Congratulations to Lonnie Teper, who I have known for close to 30 years now, on his award at the 2019 NPC Nationals.  Lonie (LT) Teper has been covering bodybuilding and the sport for 40+ years, all the time being a college professor (City of Pasadena) with a degree in journalism.  Happy to call him my friend!



From David Liberman

SUPER-CONGRATULATIONS to Lonnie Teper, the recipient of the annual “Steve Stone HEART OF THE LION” award which honors one individual each year who dedicated their lives to the sport which made a tremendous impact on our industry!!! I honestly cannot think of a more deserving person to receive this honor as Lonnie’s credentials being an incredible emcee extraordinaire of countless NPC / IFBB PRO LEAGUE events, top NPC promoter and former IRON MAN Magazines Edit-at-Large/writer, speaks for themselves.

Ummmmm...Verily this doth beg the question which is more embarrassing, to be given such an award or to receive it?

I’ve known Lonnie since I was 17. He is definitely an icon in the industry. Well deserved.

Lonnie is a funny guy. He is certainly in line for the highly coveted, bodybuilding "Peel award" as well.

At 1:30, Lonnie tries to get Lionel to peel and becomes very defensive when he does not.

Lionel isn't too smart. Does it surprise you that Lionel never tasted Olympia or Arnold classic glory? All he needed to do was peel, just once for Lonnie, and his fate would have been sealed. Instead, he chose to keep his clothes on. Well, you can't win bodybuilding championships fully clothed you dumb fool.
