"Lee on a dozen units of growth, a few grams of test, even during the diet, a little bit of insulin, and... holy shit!"
It woud've very likely ruined his physique & made him have a Palumbo
type physique - more of everything isn't always better.
You have a point for sure, I'm just pointing out that Lee was smaller
only because he didn't do the same drugs, or not in the same quantity anyway, so you can't compare him to for example Coleman
At the same time I think Lee could've put on 25lbs or more without blowing out his stomach. No doubt Coleman did massive overfeeding which might have been somewhat unnecessary.
It's humorous to me how some fans feel bodybuilding went to shit after Coleman, like in another recent thread. Actually lots of fans decrying the current state of bodybuilding look at Coleman in awe and with respect. I do too but he did suffer a certain degree of Palumboism
I agree. Bodybuilding faded after Ronnie and Jay retired and we got these fucking lames like ",BIG RAMY" who fucking SUCKED, Phil heath sucked, kai greene sucked, it became a blur to me. All the excitement and interest just died for me. It used to be about hardcore training and hard dieting, then overnight it was SYNTHOL EVERYWHERE. no one trains hard now. They're a bunch of pussies and it's obvious and I/we cannot fake interest anymore.
Ramy looked unaesthetic to me too but he had wide shoulders, sweeping quads, and relatively tight waist. Synthol was at its worst circa 1996/1997, the Sultan of supposed Symmetry did a terrible job of it, it didnt appear overnight after Ronnie retired
