I think that was Arnold who brought bodybuilding into the mainstream, who was he? A competitive bodybuilder.

When I said, "what bodybuilding used to be about" I didn't give a timeframe on it. I actually meant back before the Weiders took it all over, took out the points for participating in a sport, for athletic performance and so on.
This is what Weider did for bodybuilding.
Excellent for lonely gay guys in the closet in the 1960s, not so great for everyone else. Once it became about selling sex magazines and not about athleticism and health, there was no reason drugs shouldn't come into it. Working out is about improving how you look, feel (health) and perform. Take performance and health out of it and leave only looks, well why not roid it up?
Of course, now with everyone tangerine, striated and roid gutted, no longer athletic, muscles built to inhuman levels with hgh and vitamin T, not even lonely gay guys in the closet are getting anything out of it. Just the magazine and supplement producers.
We need less Arnies and more Fadis. More people who do bodybuilding to show what heavy lifting and good food can do - make you strong, fit and healthy - and along the way, almost by accident, looking good, too.

lol yeah he was a competetive body builder but he also started off in power lifting, just as most high end body builders, look at ronny coleman, juiced to the gills but he started off as a power lifter
quote ronny " everybody wanna get big these days but no body wanna lift big weights"

My initial reacton when i saw that photo was "shopped" because of the shadows i spoke about. I had a problem with someone advocating this and that with my first reaction to that photo.
Your a well spoken man with the intention of helping all board members reach their goals, so i'm going to apologize for having a go at you matey

Same here Damien. And as far as you are concerned, I'd be more than happy to help wherever I can (if I can); just simply ask brother. We all (me first) can learn something from each other and it all goes to make the bigger picture more complete at the end. Now that's what it's all about, wouldn't you agree Champ?

I recommend squats, deadlifts, over head press etc etc..seriously.
I'm not into cardio and HIIT for fat loss. I believe hard weight training with sensible diet is the way to go esp if you want to keep that hard earned muscle.

Sure it won't hurt. My preference for you would be 20-30 mins of low intensity cardio. Now I don't know much about you. I don't know your stats. For me I have a certaain amount of muscle already and I am just trying to loose fat. I don't know your lean body mass and fat %.
