Too much time wasted on such a small muscle groups. Should’ve done more compound exercises like squats, deadlifts, bench etc to build strength and bigger muscle groups.



Dope watch for those who haven't seen it. Tells some good prime Arnold stories.


It’s all mainly BS though. If one day he decides to open up bout what his roids stack and cycle runs go, then I might be interested to watch it.

Sorry to hear bro. As soon as I got into bodybuilding I gave up basketball for that very reason.

Yup. I never play anymore. Gave up football as well years ago. It's funny how people think weightlifting is dangerous because of the heavy weights but it actually has the lowest incident rate of injury compared to football/bball/soccer/tennis/etc etc.

In my 3 years of serious lifting, I've never been injured. Not once.

Man, i agree with you 100%.

Co-workers are always trying to egg me on to ball with them. I tell them no because I don't want to risk it. They stay coming to work limping, crutches etc. while I'm making gains and staying healthy. I'm not discouraging anyone from playing high impact sports but I personally don't want to take the risk at my age.
 
I could play outdoor hoop for hours on end when I was younger. All I needed was Gatorade and I could play in the sweltering heat forever. Some of the best times of my life thinking back on it actually.

But as you age the recovery process isn't what it used to be.

Also, all that jumping, cutting and hesitating isn't good for 30+ tendons and ligaments either :smh:

Ya, of course I'd like to know that too but it's still cool to hear the old stories w/ him and Franco etc



If we had to guess his roid stack, what would you say? Taking into consideration what was in circulation back then

I’ve no idea what was available and not available back then. But certainly no GH, insulin or any of those gut enlarging **** that current bodybuilders use. I’ve read rumors of him prolly using some synthol during contest, but I can’t be too sure.
 
Anyone here ever have complications, years after ACL repair? Looks like the biodegradable screws in my shin started to degrade and caused my body to have a foreign body reaction (thought it was staph for a sec). Woke up one morning my leg was in burning pain, lowkey thought I was abducted and aliens did a surgery on ma leg. Went to the ER to be safe, waited 7 hours for antibiotics. Not sure that it helped a ton, but my leg felt strong the entire time, just very painful.

Leg is almost normal now, but working on it (with Rehband sleeves) leaves my shin with a soft fluid bump. Goes away after some time. Anyone else deal with it?

Never had any complications with my first. My Dr. used biocompatible screws as well so they are meant to disappear after the new ligament is healed. On my second now and no complications so far, same Dr. used the button method this time which is less invasive, no screws. Never heard of what you experienced though. Hopefully everything is cool from here on out, how long out are you?

Evan Williams is gross. Some Kentucky Gentleman/Heaven Hill level ****. Try Buffalo Trace or Bulleit. Both are around $30/fifth where I am.
