The sport of bodybuilding has definitely changed, for the worse. It's no longer the sport that I joined back in 1984. If the immature behaviour displayed by well known bodybuilders, was to take place amongst some professional footballers, the whole organisation would go into a disciplinary mode against that ill behaved player for two reasons. The first being to prove to the media/public that we (whatever club it is) do not tolerate or stand by such irresponsible behaviour, and the second reason would be that, we want our players to be exemplary to our young people who look up to these champions.

Either the people in the video do not represent bodybuilding, or it only matters if and when that bodybuilder belongs to such an organisation as the IFBB, who I do not respect, based on the way they've treated our own champion Mr. Lee Priest. So where to from here with this sport of ours, as I see it getting worse and not better? Disrespect is the cool the hip and the normal, whilst respect is simply old school and boring to these young "bodybuilders" flooding our gyms. Gyms I no longer visit as I do not feel I belong, at least not with my old school attitude.
