Clicked on that video of Ruhl in the “So you thought Ronnie was big” thread.
The dude is hyoooge!
I know extreme hard work and dedication to improving yourself are absolutely neccessary in that world. And I know strict attention to dietary habits are crucial. I admire all the professional bodybuilders for their devotion and passion to the complete discipline required to succeed.
BUT, even though I know Ruhl was just goofing off when he jammed out his gut when posing for the one pic, it made me think of what the most obvious, glaring problem, at least visually is.
The big, fat, disgusting distended guts that just scream, “My internal organs are so blown up by these ungodly amounts of drugs I’m on, that I’m ready to explode!!!”
That ain’t nothin’ I’d ever want to look like.
Watch “Pumping Iron”, and yeah, those guys obvious had some “help” preparing for contests, but there were no “basketballs” sewn under their skin…
yeah, yeah, the dedication it takes and blah, blah. but it’s come to the point where he looked closer to ideal in the before pic in that clip then what he looks like now. i see it is more of a challenge to keep symetrical and not overly bulky then to just get freakishly hugh like these guys in the pros today. i’d like to see a shift towards this, but i doubt it would ever happen (unless some drop on stage at one time) because the gorilla look brings in the cash.
