    Why go old school? 15 Differences between modern and old school bodybuilders
    March 4, 2014 By John Doe


    So why is John Doe such a big fan of old school bodybuilders, you may ask? Well, I’m interested in the old school for a number of reasons.

    1. Guys trained harder



    2. Pics were taken of them because their physiques were deserving of it. They didn’t take a bunch of selfies and plaster it all over Facebook like they were some big star.



    3. Nobody self promoted themselves. It was simple back then; you brought your balls to the gunfight or you stayed home.



    4. Motherfuckers weren’t constantly crying about what they didn’t have or needed to get. They used what they had available and busted ass.



    5. Many of them had legitimate jobs and were respected for other things besides bodybuilding.



    6. Guys didn’t nit pick over how many meals they hit that day. Remember, this was before the microwave hit the market.



    7. There was a greater sense of brotherhood and they stuck together. Guys nowadays are fucking assholes.



    8. They actually went out and did stuff; they didn’t remain recluses who were afraid that any little thing they did was going to hurt their precious bodybuilding.



    9. More guys openly talked about steroids. Yes, they busted ass but they didn’t chalk up all of their results because they used the newest and hottest supplement on the market.



    10. Being big and strong was what girls wanted, and the ideal American man.



    11. They had better balance between size and definition. No they weren’t as lean as most competitors today, but they still had the strength to boot. They carried a more well-rounded look all year rather than look shredded for a week and fat the rest of the year.



    12. They competed more often. Guys nowadays put so much into just 1 show a year



    13. They dressed nicer. They wore form fitting clothes and could still wear a suit and tie. These idiots now all rock these retarded xxxxl sweatshirts or hoodies. Why the fuck would you bodybuild just to hide your results and hard work? It makes no sense to me.



    14. They had personality. It wasn’t like talking to some zombie. Talk to most guys nowadays, you’d have better conversations with a wall.



    15. They didn’t suffer through life just to pay for fucking steroids.



    To be continued..

    Hope you don't mind me posting on here, but very nice F.I.S.T. I agree100% the old school look was much better, their training was I believe more real. I love the old school style better,normal guys like you said who had other jobs and who made due with what they had.I cant wait to hear more from you on this. In my opinion as well Old School Rules!!

      Absolutely man.Guys were more into pushing the iron than hanging out and bullshitting or looking at girls.

      Plus,there were some truly strong mother's moving some heavy ass weight on a 10th of the gear guys run today.Many 500lb bench presses lifting from pure strength.

            Yeah and I already rant about my back but I have spinal stenosis and have had 3 back surgeries but I still hit the gym hard maybe not as hard as I used to but I still hit it hard and laugh at the young guns who come in pushing tons of weight but barely moving it at all it just kills me some of the stuff I see at the gym.
            GO HARD OR GO HOME!!!
