Actually smart bodybuilder aren't eating tons of yolks, and lots of what they are getting for egg protein is coming in supplement form with the protein seperated out and minimal fat and cholesterol, but he had to be reading way too mauch Arnold and old school. Not so much the eggs but ungodly amounts of red meat which I'm sure had a huge impact. He never used a nutritionist or studied nutrition, he just went the steaks, beer, roids, and dieuretics route. One of the thimngs he talks about, and it's probably related is that he never won any of the big pro shows which tend to happen in late summer/fall. he was always amazing in the spring, but could never peak again later in the year. There really are a lot of similarities in personality traits, bodybuilders tend to be ego-centric loner types too. There's the same tunnel vision, and addiction to the physical activity, the need to build a base and cycle training for targeted peaks. The easy cheats with drugs. One of the things he talks about was that he has some regrets, but treated it like a business, and did more than a thousand paid personal/guest appearances, advertisments, etc...and made enough to be pretty comfortable for life. He has a Weider contract at $50,000+ for 15 years too because he was so Pro about the business stuff. He's really shaking his head about what we'd call the $15K dreamers who spent the cash on drugs, wrecked their bodies, and that was too look good in the gym, and do local shows. Sounds a lot like the Master/wannabe parking lot crit hero doesn't it? I had lots of chances to bag just about any drug out there, and am really glad that I decided it just wasn't worth the expense, or health risk. I wasn't gonne be a star, and I sure as hell wasn't gonna do it to be a local legend. It's tough though when you see people you've trained with, and were better than, just go shooting by you.
