the fact he still gets up and trains with one legs is whats impressive.
This was addressed in the first few paragraphs of Mega Newbs post.
I would imagine that anyone who actually had the dedication, passion, and work ethic to get that big in the first place would still have that drive even after losing a leg.[/quote]
have you ever lost leg? my guess is it isnt something you shrug off. i also wouldnt have the audacity to suggest raising a family and finding the time to hit the gym a few times a week is anywhere near as difficult as living your life with one leg.

I have never lost a leg, and while I agree that it is most likely something that one doesn’t simply “shrug off”, my opinion that anyone with the desire to get as big as Siudak is will give bodybuilding their best shot despite the obstacles thrown at them.
That being said, as Newb wrote, it is silly to assume that his particular situation is such that we can dismiss the obstacles faced by others as something they don’t have the right to complain about because, hey, this guy has one leg.

Amazing stuff. I remember reading years ago in some muscle rag about a kid who basically had no lower portions of both arms. He has some weird hook contraption that allowed him to hang DBs and essentially bench press without arms. Necessity truly is the mother of invention.

I believe this is the guy you’re talking about
He posts regularly on bb.com as well as the russian counterpart of anabolicminds.
why? as i mentioned he didnt choose to have his leg removed, it just happened to him.
you cant say people who work a lot have anywhere near the same amount of obstacles to overcome. you choose your job. if you placed bodybuilding at such a high priority you could simply quit and find a more convienient job. you cand just lose a leg and say hey, im gonna grow another one.
you dont lose the right to complain because he has only one leg, you lose the right to complain when you blatantly set yourself to make things too difficult i,e working 3 jobs or having 9 kids and expecting to be able to pursue a bodybuilding career.
and there are people who despite losing legs still find a way to compete, wheel chair marthons, murderball, basketball etc, they usually do things in which you dont need both legs, bodybuilding is something you kinda needa have two legs for…ok well apparently it can be done with one but thats what makes it so amazing because no one else has ever done it.
and btw, nothing is ever done until its done. so dont say just because you can do something under one circumstance you can automatically do it under another, i highly doubt you find people containing the drive to do what he did.
gotta agree with Live here. a lot of people site some pretty weak excuses as to why they dont improve, or workout to begin with. well, this guy is missing a limb, and got his shit done - so what are ‘your’ excuses?
i dont mean someone who has to work two jobs and raise a family - i mean the typical “im have bad genetics” excuse making lazy person who cant stop eating doritoes, then complains they have little muscle and a fatass.

It’s called Primo or some Winstrol or other cutting agent. Are people this oblivious? Who isn’t taking steroids?
Also, I bet he’s busted his ass HELL of a lot harder than anyone else who dares complain about steroids.
sometimes i can’t believe what i’m reading when i click on these forums…
thanks for the post 1morerep, i read about this guy a few years ago in a copy of muscle and fitness. the fact that some people can’t feel inspired by people who accomplish more than most ever will despite EXTREME adversity leaves me feeling more disappointed and cynical than ever.
oh, and when people come up with excuses for not training, for me, the old one about, “losing a limb” still trumps the “i’m a bit tired from work” or “the kids are doing my head in” every time.

No, please enlighten us on how exactly he got into that shape. You obviously have spoken/trained/dined with him before his contest, so please fill us in.
That is truly one of the greatest things i’ve ever seen. What makes it even better is recently i was pondering about how if i ever lost a limb i would make it my goal to put astonishment on the face of everyone by making the opposite limb gargantuan.
