I’m guessing you was waiting for me to put him over my knee I bet. Genius move on his part call out the one guy that is probably older than his own daddy.
@dagill2 for the record all I did was call the kid out on his motivation. Along with pointing out the experience level of some of the people giving him advice.
Ha! I’d love to see him realize that having that intermediate classification is totally useless lol

I could tell guys were wasting their time based on how he responded.
Agreed. Makes for an interesting read though!

Seen them way too often… Kid wasn’t looking for advice just wanted someone to agree with his pre established decision. Pretty much everyone knew it and so did he. I just got bored and decided to call his ass out on it. I would say he ended up showing his immature ass.
Got a feeling it will get more interesting if he starts squawking again…
A lot of the threads on here are pretty much copy paste jobs. I think that’s why the calisthenics threads get so much attention.
And mine are still a way off teenagers yet, don’t go ruining the surprise for me.

At least he went out swimming or having fun. Better than drooling in a nursing home!

He had what I consider the whole package. The look and the strength to back it up.

Pumping Iron was awesome. I was in High School at the time. We all tried to emulate their training after that movie… without success.
I think the bodybuilder of that generation was superior to today. Just my opinion.

Yeah I have a fondness for that era of the sport up into the late 80’s.

I’m not a huge BB fan. And I blame the giant freak sized guys that have come along in the last 20 /30 years.
I know it’s betting and old drum but Arnold and his generation where the apex of human aesthetics (with regard to muscle mass/size).
