Has anyone mentioned Zraw yet? I wasn’t here when he was but really enjoyed his old prep threads. I recently saw him on YouTube as Iain Valliere’s training partner and he’s huge now.

I’ve had some contact with Zraw in a small FB group the last few years, but actually ran Into him in person at the Olympia a couple of years back… much larger these days than he used to be.

Holymac ?! Wow!

I kinda grew to like Professor X in a way, dude is probably dumbest smart person I’ve ever come across on the internet in many ways…but the guy did often have a very valid point when it came to how to get huge in a somewhat brosciencey fashion, he just went about expressing his views in such an obnoxious way he attracted a huge amount of haters. He’s probably a very mildly mannered IRL though.

Cortes was another funny one…dude was smart, but clearly nowhere near as smart as he thought he was…hilariously arrogant at times.

Yogi was really cool…perhaps a bit too cool!

Prof X won at life, but he knew nothing about bodybuilding. He was genetically blessed and extremely ignorant to believe otherwise.

Did he? I thought he was just some lonely guy with no wife or kids, just this forum and the gym.

His a dentist with plenty of time and money to pursue his passion for bodybuilding. And even though it was much more for genetic reasons than training wisdom, he was also huge, which one can certainly respect and admire. He just knew nothing about training.

I’m still confused about how a dentist who pursues their passion for bodybuilding yet knows ā€œnothing about trainingā€ and is also completely alone is ā€œwinning at lifeā€.

I just wanna see pichers of him lol

Why settle for pictures when you can have video?

There’s a whole series

Goodness, he’s pretty damn big.

Yup. Dude knew how to train and eat to get big. A few folks in the beginners section could stand to endure his influence, haha.

I’m even more confused as to how he’s been described on here then - why is there even a narrative that he knows nothing about training, as I quoted earlier? I mean, loneliness aside, I see a ton of negative stuff and not nearly enough mention of how big that dude is, haha.

It was mainly a style issue. Imagine Paul Carter, but less humble and more sure of himself. Also, not as patient with, kind toward, and respectful/tolerant of, those who disagree with him.

Edit: Oh, and not nearly as willing to just let things go and ā€˜agree to disagree.’

Where he tended to overstep was on the discussion of actual bodybuilding. The ā€œBigger Stronger Leanerā€ forum honestly owes its existence to him.
