Thing about Hogan is he never actually had that super-inflated/shrinkwrapped bodybuilder look like Lex Luger or Ultimate Warrior or Scott Steiner. Obviously he used steroids, but he was also a naturally huge dude, and he was never walking around at a sub-10% bodyfat shredded to the gills. Of course, fewer pro wrestlers actually ever looked like that than people realize, because they're athletes and need to be able to move, not just to look good.

[@davidradtke160]

A little fat helps cushion and prevent injury too. Most wrestlers are just big, only a few were ever really shredded.

[@hugejackedman3447]

The vast majority of those guys were juiced like a grapefruit but didn't care about being lean.. Warrior and Luger on the other had were actually trying to become bodybuilders at one point. I think Sting was too. Scott Steiner just did it because he could! 🤣

Im your neighbor, you must be concussed cuz what really happened was you went outside and the heel mailman put the boots to you. He beat you down hard and then delivered his special finisher the package piledriver. As he went to pin you for the 3, you kicked out and with clenched fists and shook your head vigorously. I was like, aww shit, here we go. I started getting amped up like you as i watched in awe. You literally hulked up, the mailman fires a punch at you, you didn't register it all. The mailman hits even harder with a second strike but your blood was pumping and you were invincible. The mailman hits a double axe handle to your back but you turned suddenly and pointed at him sternly and said "YOUUUUUUU!" The mailman freaked out, he threw a punch but you blocked it, i can hear what seemed like thousands of fans screaming boom, boom, boom with each strike you threw at the mailman. You tossed him into the fence and you whipped in so gard he returnsd back to you and you put up a big boot to his face and the mailman went flat to his back rocked by the power of you! You looked around, i think you heard the same screams i was hearing, you cupped your hand to your ear as if you were listening to the acreaming maniacs going wild for the inevitable, your signature move baby! You ran to the fence, bounced off, ran back and went what seemed to be 6ft into the air and came across with a big leg drop, you covered the mailman, 1..2...3! God it was fantastic!😅

For the record, I still have my original Hulk-a-Mania barbel and plastic coated concrete weights in the garage. It was my first weight set and started me on the path to weightlifting. As a result, I eventually found competitive weightlifting in high school where I won a state championship. After high school, I got into olympic style weightlifting competing only locally and then began coaching. Of the athletes I've coached, 2 attended the OTC in Colorado and completed internationally. However hokey Hulk-a-Mania was, it was a gateway for a lot of young boys in the 80s to get into fitness and weight training. Loved the commentary as usual.

I grew up in the 80's. All of our male idols were taking steroids, unbeknownst to us.

Now that all the "masculine" idols are admitted steroid users, young men think they now have two options: steroids or quit because they are not "genetically gifted". I believe guys like the Hulk knew they would be letting down and demotivating a whole generation of young men if they came clean with their steroid use. Turns out, 40 years later, they were right.

@@KevinJDildonik That analogy is not even close to my point. We have conditioned our youth to look at themselves unrealistically. If a person is uneducated, we should encourage them to go to school. If a person is having financial troubles, we should encourage them to gain acceptable employment. Yet if a person is in a poor physical condition, we tell them it's just their imagination and they must have body dysmorphia. Just because you will likely never be a billionaire, doesn't mean you shouldn't even try to get a job. And just because you will never have 24" arms without the use of steroids, doesn't mean you shouldn't even try to push your natural limits.

Love Dr. Mike's content but would like to know how straps is better than developing forearm strength manually.

As a PT, I agree. There’s too much voodoo bs in our profession. Haven’t met too many PTs I like … including myself 😢

[@mikecasale438]

Muscle Activation Technique really has taken PT to the next level.

Saw him In San Diego in 2011 standing almost next to me- there was suddenly a crowd on the street and they were oohing and ahing and I looked over and there was this gigantic man just a bit over from me standing in the door way of the Hard Rock hotel, towering over the crowd. He really does have an incredible physical presence.

[@user-ri3pl8jf2j]

I love how he addresses Scott as Scott the video guy every single Time 😂😂😂😂😂

[@akwandegawe2600]
