00:00:00.000 Greetings Legionnaires! Today I want to elaborate a bit on modern bodybuilding since the Mr.
00:00:15.840 Olympiad competition was on this weekend and to keep it short I think modern bodybuilding at a
00:00:20.880 top level is an abomination and I say that because it has nothing to do with what I perceive as the
00:00:27.120 beautiful things of the temple of iron Mr. Olympia has nothing to do with health fitness or performance
00:00:33.840 it is more about who can withstand the most amount of gear into your bodies without dying it is more
00:00:40.080 about that aspect than actually training hard the guys at the top level don't need to hit the gym
00:00:45.680 hard they need to be meticulous about their diet and they need to be meticulous about their gear
00:00:50.720 intake that is what that competition is about plus who can have the best genetics now the genetics
00:00:56.080 part you can't get away from that's just the way of life but that's not what I'm taking a stab at
00:01:00.800 I'm taking a stab at that bodybuilding on the top level has has become this sort of really
00:01:06.400 degenerated abomination from something that was once beautiful up until Frank Zane perhaps lost
00:01:13.440 Frank Zane was a bit too big and a bit too dry in my opinion I prefer to have a higher body fat I think
00:01:20.320 that looks more healthy and natural and realize this that there is nothing healthy there is nothing
00:01:24.960 aesthetic there is nothing glorious about having five percent body fat and I suggest that no one
00:01:29.360 has it I I long for the fucking day when that ideal goes away and if I can be an inspiration and
00:01:35.120 spread a message it is the following fuck that fucking level of shreddiness it has nothing to do
00:01:40.480 with anything that is that is glorious for a man because your health will take a stab and for me the beauty of
00:01:48.000 the beauty of a masculine physique like no homo but that is also how you can perform with your body if
00:01:54.880 you can't perform with your body and it's just for show that is more a feminine quality like I'm quite
00:02:01.520 vain myself but I realize that the masculine value is to perform and a more feminine value is to look
00:02:08.400 pretty so if it's just for show if you can't actually do anything with your body that is for me
00:02:14.320 not as glorious at all and if you look at the guys on the top levels of bodybuilding they've also lost
00:02:20.880 the sense of aesthetics completely back in the day when frank zane was around they still had some sort
00:02:27.200 of ideals they weren't too big they did they sure as hell didn't go around with you this huge bellies
00:02:32.640 that looked like a pregnant cow now I'm not disrespecting anyone on the top level but at the
00:02:38.160 same time I need to call out this shit whenever I see it because it's not good it's not good role models
00:02:43.280 for younger guys to say like okay cool I want to be a bodybuilder and you have to realize that it's
00:02:48.640 a competition about who can take the most gear you don't want to destroy your body and your life like
00:02:52.960 that and no I'm not saying that you should train to be healthy like who the fuck wants that no you
00:02:57.440 want to be big and massive but what kind of price are you willing to pay for that do you want your body
00:03:02.400 to be completely fucking destroyed because you wanted some quick fucking gains no obviously not so I hope
00:03:08.320 that the current training mr olympia you know with his mass freaks the bigger the better and the
00:03:12.880 harder the better I hope it goes away I'm really no fan of that at all it's nothing to do with fitness
00:03:18.640 health performance and it's outright dangerous and I don't in any way want to be associated with
00:03:23.920 that sort of bodybuilding so if you say like bodybuilding to me yeah it can mean a lot of things
00:03:27.920 it can mean natural bodybuilding or strength training you build your body you build your confidence
00:03:33.600 that is one thing even bodybuilding with moderate amounts of gear that is also one thing amateur
00:03:39.040 competitions in bodybuilding that is also one thing but I'm not liking this sort of development
00:03:44.480 where you need to be like five percent body fat to stand a chance because you will only fuck up your
00:03:49.520 fucking hormonal system and you will feel like shit for three weeks or three months or six months
00:03:54.240 before the fucking competition there is no way to live that is not something anyone should strive for
00:03:59.360 ever so that is my beef with modern bodybuilding and especially with the professional level of it
00:04:05.280 I don't want to be associated with that shit in any way whatsoever and that's also why I don't
00:04:09.920 want to refer to myself as a bodybuilder even though I'm quite juicy like and who am I
00:04:15.440 I'm the juicy elf of wisdom xx0 boom
