Guys like Fouid Abiad, Seth Feroce, Even Centapani, Guy Cisternino, etc. all build successful incomes/businesses and none of them are even top 10 competitors in bbing/for Mr O.
Then you've guy the social media guys like Christian Guzman, Steve Cook, Brad Castleberry, Bradley Martyn, etc. that are basically not even competitive lifters but are vlogging and social media icons making millions of dollars.
Jay Culter just laid out the blueprint for leveraging wealth/lifestyle from lifting. Now everyone else is following in his path.

They can also coach and have a good amount of clients. Hell if Jason Blaha is doing well coaching people, pros would have an easier time getting clientele

Also a perfect example of someone who'd be an absolute nobody if he'd have stayed natural.

They do fairly normal cycles. Morons like Dallas McCarver who are doing 5 grams a week and drop dead are the people you speak of.

no one wants to hear this though or accept it because it means admitting other men are much more superior to them physically,and they are more clueless than they realize, men like to think they would be the same way if only they did *insert bullchit fake generic excuse*
surely its not that those bodybuilders have been lifting for 15 years and learned a lot of knowledge/skills along the way
surely its not that they have chosen to do what is needed instead of what is fun or easy more than others

I’m huge into fitness, athleticism, and health. But seems like most people go pro for attention. Lame as fuk imo. “Competitions” are a joke. I just laugh inside when people tell me they’re “competing”.

With natural bodybuilding theres more people starting to look like frank zane with the results from smarter trainer and natural bodybuilding you can do for life

the enjoyment if you are a bodybuilder should be in the day to day not in the victories.
You should go to a competition to collect not compete.
Also whats wrong with attention? do you like being lonely and never getting attention?
nothing pisses me off though more than "competitors" who need a competition in order to be motivated to be a bodybuilder. THOSE people do it for attention.

Bodybuilding in general is healthy and can be a great hobby. But taking large amount of steroids knowing you're going to die in your 40's? Mental illness.

Modern bb? Yeah it's retarded.
The modern ones usually look well into their mid 40's while being in their early 20's. Just lol at throwing away your youth so recklessly.

No idea why people are saying "you're on a bodybuilding forum."
Body building = building your body through strength training. It doesn't necessarily mean injecting yourself with steroids and getting to 300lbs shredded.
