Evolution or de evolution of Body Building

[drtbear1967]

Yes I am old school, Yes, I like things better back in the late 70's, 80's and early 90's. I am not saying that I am correct, just giving my opinion. I remember when diuretics were outlawed after the death of a bodybuilder. I remember when Vince McMahan tried to go head to head with the IFBB. I also remember when people walked off stage and could be interviewed without sounding like they had been running for a hour and were not out of breath. When will enough be enough. I guess when some guy explodes on stages and his ruptured viscus of muscles and ligaments are splattered across the stage, then maybe things will change. Who knows.

Uhh, that has happened with bodybuilders back stage, pro bodybuilders to, collapsing on the stage, being ambulance carted away. That was years ago lmao.

So to the author, whether our dear drtbear or some other fellow he might be sharing this for, the answer my good man is NEVER!

What surprises me most is how short all of the top body builders are getting. How do you come in over 260 lbs. with a 5'8" frame? Can you imagine Lou Ferrigno on stage today?

I had a picture of some of the guts but I cannot get it to load. Yes, I have been thinking about the deaths of Dallas and Rich. I love the gym and I love the brotherhood that it can bring with it. I just hate seeing people checking out before there time.
