PRO ASPIRATIONS

huge-inc · Sep 9, 2005

1.I think a vast majority of pros out there,couldn't win a pro show
2.A vast majority of pros could not win the mens NPC Nationals EX....could Bob Chicereelo have beaten Chris Cook,Bill willmore or Marcus Haley ..hell no
3.You should find a very honest no bullshit person to help you with your prep
4.Be realistc and honest to yourself..I placed myself perfectly everyshow...yes even DFL (dead fucking last)..I also walked out to get my throhy for second place before then announced it was me...I knew I was second best that day...I think thats why they asked me start judging
5.I train very few people for competion,mostly becase I'm brutly honest with them...the good ones like ...others don't they just want every to tell them there great even if there not
6.Its easier to have one person your not ready than a whole auttorium
7.just a post

everyone who bodybuilds wants to turn pro or at least most people Ive met- including me- but you have to realize life in a way- I LOVE the lifestyle of this and I truly want to be freaky and I will become freaky in time- will I become a pro?- who knows as long as I keep getting bigger and better and keep doing what i do I am truly happy even if that means not partying,drinking,,smoking, etc etc- even if you dont turn pro try to get something out of this hobby- for me it was personal training and dieting- there is money to be made- bodybuilding will NOT pay the bills- dont look towards being a pro - look towards to have a fkin awesome phsyique and making sick amounts of cash to live good and doing it slow and right! Mark dugdale is similar to what i am pointing towards- this is a VERY secondary thing for him, but he suceeded and he still does his business, has his family, and works hard,etc, and is a pro-another person who comes to mind is Art atwood, they both impress me along with arnold because they do it for love they have other things outside of this- just my opinion

I do agree to a certain extent, me personally I don't claim to be Ronnie ,Jay etc but I do see some the top pro's and think " Hey I 29 and I can achieve that " and if I didn't , I wouldn't do this sport. If you don't have high goals you won't get anywhere in life

Agreed. Plus you can't compare people that turned pro in the past with the current top amateurs that are tyring to turn pro - the sport evolves, just like any other.

Yep that true to BigA

Yes you can

BigA ...when you all get on stage thats how they compare you right???...the only show that they do seperate is masters olympia....What I'm trying to say there is only a handful of bodybuilders that could win every show....And yes you have to pit bb's of old against the new champs..Ronnie Coleman is old school and un beatable...So my point is that Dexter Jackson,Jay Cutler could every show they wanted except where King Coleman goes..the real fight is in like 6th - 15th

BUT, you are talking about the top 5 or 10 pros. The rest 100+ are totally in a different league. Those 10 top guys are mutants. The rest are just good bodybuilders. Which means, the rest get surpassed quite easily as the sport advances.

The best body ever in my opinion is Bob Paris's. It's just beautfiul to look at. I would love to have that body, even if that body wouldn't win anything today. SO? Who cares about winning a bb comp when you have a body like that?

I'll bet Bob likes you too, BigA
