Amen Frank!

“…Maybe not okay (laughs). Because I don’t even care – I care about bodybuilding but not the way it is now. To tell you the truth people who care enough about the way bodybuilding used to be come to me for advice and that is all I care about: that idea. If you want to look like a freak there are plenty of people around who will tell you how to do that.

Every muscle magazine on the market will tell you how to do that except for one thing: they won’t tell you what everybody is doing as far as the drugs they are taking. They won’t tell you what that is. That is the key ingredient that is left out.

They say, “If you want to look like a freak take these supplements, take Muscle Tech. If you do this you will look that way.” But that’s not true at all. Supplements help, but it is the massive drug abuse that goes on. To tell you the truth I don’t blame the bodybuilders. Basically they are just doing what it takes to win. I blame the judges. The judges are the ones that say, “You are the best.”

With posing here is my idea, which, of course will fall on deaf ears, but I think this would be a really good idea: make the vacuum pose a mandatory pose. If you want to get guys to start paying more attention to having a small waistline, make the vacuum pose mandatory.

Get them to do it with the abdominal pose. You would use the same position with hands behind the head from the abdominal pose to the vacuum. It would certainly narrow the field because nobody could do it. Actually there is only one guy who could do it and that is Chris Cormier. But nobody else could because of the size of their guts, which are too big.

Another thing that put bodybuilding into the monster realm is when they eliminated the above and below 200 pound class. Everybody said we should all be over 200 pounds. Now there is nobody onstage who is less than 200 pounds.”

WOW.
