''No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.'' -Socrates, 469-399BC
@@NicandroVisionMotivation the truth of this saying is that if you reach your potential , when you get old , you will appreciate what was once possible and understand the aging process and your limitations much better... without achieving that ,you will never know that feeling.of what was once possible..
Bob Paris had everything right and in perfect harmonie,i saw him compete several times, even in one Olympia in 85 and he was amazing...Classic physique at its maximun potential
They seemed to be more aware of proper lighting and a dark background etc back then. Now we have big flashy monitors at every sports event that compete with the attention.
bobby p is the most aesthetic bodybuilder of all time in my opinion. the proportions were perfect. hes not all time favorite but hes easily the best looking imo.
Personally, I am so impressed with the way that Bob Paris did for himself in his bodybuilding past and for his dedication to human and civil rights for the LGBTQ community all over the world as well. Other than that, I often wondered about what happened to his former spouse, Rod Jackson? He has been out of the spotlight for years already.
During my time Bob Paris is one of those bodybuilders I aspired to be, him along with Serge Nubret, Mohamed Makkawy, Rich Caspari, all those from that great era 😊
When you compare him to the Big refrigators competitors that you see now on stage you just want cry man. Bodybuilding is about flow and beauty mix with size and définition.thank god we have Samson dauda and Andrew jacked in the open division.
For all we might acknowledge the genetic gifts accorded to this man, by far the greater contribution to his physique was hard work. Muscles like that do not spring from luck.
He came out gay at the height of his career at a time when that was unspeakable...he gave up money earned from bodybuilding, personal training, modeling,guest appearances, publishing,etc...he was blacklisted and shunned ...he became a gay activist and moved to Canada...I was surprised to see him holding hands with his boyfriend on prime time TV .I knew his career was over at that point and his popularity would waine.and also future earnings. .I remember him as a likeable guy , very symmetrical like Zane, and an excellent poser.😮
It’s a shame that it was such a big deal back then. I mean, dude lost all sources of income just for being gay. I’m so glad things are not like that now.
For Bob Paris to come out and declare himself a gay man during an era that being gay was a sure way to destroy your career for Bob to do that took courage beyond most anything else.
Not only that , but he went on prime time TV . holding hands with his boyfriend and his career was over instantly....he had to move to Canada after that and wrote books .😮
I had a huge crush on him he was to me a fantasy his muscle was so beautiful so masculine he was like a living muscle god when he would put oil on his muscular body I would get goosebumps to me he is and was the ultimate dominant muscle man ❤❤❤❤
