Dam, the line up at these shows are weak if that is considered a pro physique. Has to be masters?

It was in Men's bodybuilding over 50, he's 50 or 51 iirc

I'm happy for the guy, seems like a chill dude and I like his content. Congrats!

He is chill as fuck, a "bro" with brains. I really like his no BS content

Hey great. Was waiting to see an update about it. Been loosely following on YouTube.

His conditioning was just unreal. He started leaner and ate more this prep; I'm taking notes. Well deserved congratulations to Big Paul, one of the best hardcore bodybuilding youtubers in the game RN.

I’m stoked to see him win and glad to see another client of Justin’s turn pro. Paul has put on a crazy amount of size the last few years, ie most of those gains made close to 50 years old. A true testament to the power of following a solid plan. And he is indeed a super chill and helpful guy- genuinely interested in helping people out.

I've only seen a handful of his videos but it's great to see a guy who's worked for years, at his age no less, get his pro card.

Masters 50+ overall, definitely not a weak line up

 

[Fleezy]

I want to be like Paul

His progress from 2021 to 2024 is insane.

Good for him. He earned it and deserves it. To those saying his competition is weak, what's the point in that? He worked his ass and reached his goal. If it were easy, we'd all have Pro Cards. I respect his effort and work ethic and the fact that he's 51 makes it even more impressive to me.

You don’t hear “your lineup was weak” from other people who won their cards Only from people who’ve accomplished less.

It is nice when the hard consistent work gets rewarded. Paul really was putting in the consistent work.

Going to be interesting to see what Paul does next. Will he just compete once in a while, just for the enjoyment of it? Will he plan to retire from Bodybuilding with this, and still keep on living the lifestyle, but put all the effort that competing eats away into his business (and family n friends)?

He doesn't just look great for a 51 year old, he looks great period. Maybe the legs being a weaker point, but Paul is tall as a house, making them look huge is almost impossible.

100% I’m impressed with anybody who can get on a stage and be competitive, let alone win.

A lot of us regular lifting bros are impressed with anyone willing to even go through the process of contest prep! "There are levels to this shit..."

Unfortunately is no money reword in the IFBB Pro Masters , Rusty received $500 for placing first in the over50 and $500 for over 60. It is a shame how corrupt is the organization.
