[@lewisfruen5648]

He fuckin killin me with the dougnuts bro, I wouldn't shit for 36 hours at least 😂

[@vivalarazausarmyvet4453]

Today, we call it the Sam Sulek diet.

[@steveb6718]

basically, run gear and gain size... then eat a lot to maintain the size, and do it again each year.............

[@tonysaourn9220]

Including ice cream Even Arnold said himself.

[@yeigh08]

I am 67 years old and have trained with some big boys. When I lived in Hawaii I became friends with a retired LA cop who trained at Golds in the 70's and at one time owned a gym in the LA area. He stated that Arnold would gain weight 8 to 12 weeks before the Olympia and that he had never seen anyone respond to the juice the way Arnold did. I can tell you that I used to buy the Weider crash weight in the cans. They tasted good especially for that era. I also took the Hoffman weight gain and it was like drinking sand.

[@davidpadilla9989]

Hoffman powder was like sawdust

[@lamontmcfadden6642]

Did u tried Rheo h Blair protein I heard it was really good but very expensive

[@GoldenEraBookworm]

Protein by the Sea.....Hoffman literally canned sand!

[@ccfunkster]

Weider supplements tasted good. GNC was just ok.

[@larrydowling]

i too was there in world gym ,his(Arnold) body would explode on gear ,remember he started (juice)in his teenage years and was huge back then .i started in my 20,s it helped me so much ,but only two to three time a year.im lucky i retired ,but oh do i miss the times associated with a /travel/standing in front of thousands of people on stage./friendships/so many woman .so many nights training around the world/sweden/LA/europe/Australia,i was on fire back then ,happiness to me was home with my compound /pool/food/music/cars/20000 sqm of paradise.wtf am i doing now,year thinking of the past.

Thank you for continuing with the awesome Golden Era content

[@GoldenEraBookworm]

You're welcome...much more to come!!

[@johnkelley6278]

I'm surprised that the buffet restaurant owners didn't lock the doors when they seen the Golds Gym crowd show up. Bodybuilders of all ages love this channel!

[@GoldenEraBookworm]

Lol, here they come!

[@darvinlobaton4825]

In one of the old ric drasin videos he said they all eventually got banned from going to the buffets

[@anunez5173]

This has got to be the best channel for Golden Era stories/vids . New subscriber here !!! Keep ‘em coming.

[@mje9000]

This Ken Waller interview series is spectacular! Please continue this excellent Golden Era content!

[@utopianseeker5493]

Thank you Carlos.

[@PomazeBog1389]

Ric Drasin used to have great stories about them going to buffets after working out. He also talked about how Sundays were their cheat days and Arnold used to go to a place called "House of Pies" and eat a whole pie.

[@SopranoPizzaJMFNJ]

Ric was fantastic. I miss him and his channel.

[@invisableobserver]

I love these stories, Ken has a good sense of humor. Both Ken & Arnold were fun mischievous pranksters. If I was in a competition today I'd hide all the other contestants cell phones.

[@lewisfruen5648]

Carlos my man you are about to hit 100k Subs this year, I want to congrate you in advance! You the man!

[@orchids33333]

Your channel is so valuable

[@doug3792]

Hi, Dr Cassano. How are you? I'm marathoning your channel and I'm loving it! I am an athlete for the Brazilian team; and your videos have helped me in my training. Thank you for the excellent work. A big hug!

[@GoldenEraBookworm]

You're welcome. Obrigado

[@ivossmarttv468]

It's amazing you can talk to these guys.

[@fabphil100]

You should get Ken’s audio cleaned up , anyways keep up the great work brilliant content

[@zacharymartin5198]

Great video! Can you make more videos on Lou Ferrigno! His book bodybuilding and personal power is great the workouts and meal plans are awesome that book changed my life! Thanks

[@GoldenEraBookworm]

I'd like to interview him but he or his wife have never responded to my requests

[@zacharymartin5198]

Thank You! Check out his book personal power and bodybuilding maybe you can make some videos on it, I feel like there isnt much Lou Ferrigno content or footage on KZbin. He is a great inspiration and 1 of a kind body there will definitely never be another like Lou or close to him at his size! Really incredible and doesn't get as much attention as he deserves 👏 🙌

[@invisableobserver]

@@GoldenEraBookworm offer Lou some ice cream

[@rob345]

I recall a muscle builder interview conducted by joe Weider: Ken told joe" I eat 3 eggs and a piece of meat every meal, and I get cravings for ice-cream and cookies. Ken related a story where he ate 2 pints of ice cream and 2 bags of cookies and for dessert, a cream pie, he also related "Funny the next morning my waist was more shrunk more ever, but don't try every day. Joe Weider was amazed! Does anyone else recall this part Ken Waller interview around 1977?

[@GoldenEraBookworm]

LOL, sounds like Ken alright

[@WNBFPakistan]

Great job

[@leeroybrown9931]

Great content!! Can you do something on Bob Paris

[@counterbalancelife4305]

Ask Ken about movies/tv. He was in a movie called "Kill the Golden Goose" where he was a bad guy heavy who get's a fork to the throat by a martial arts guy (with awesome hair) after calling him a coconut head. Also, ask him what he did in the 80's/90's. I recall seeing a late 80's(?)/early 90's magazine article about him owning or running a gym or something. It had a pic with him leaning against a car (probably a vette) wearing the usual big baggie pants of the era.

[@GoldenEraBookworm]

I was only given the opportunity to interview him once. It was a rare opportunity

[@richardf.3154]

I can't remember a single book that I read in high school, but I do remember the article from Muscle Builder in 1977, where Ken's exact words were "I'm notoorious for my excesses"!

[@pietroanania]

please make a video for intollerance and allergy diseases diet and how to eat with this problem

[@Barbassoblues]

Good job Carlos

[@zacharymartin5198]

Also would be awesome if you could get Lou on for some videos!

[@GoldenEraBookworm]

He is difficult to get a hold of

[@juanrodriguez5404]

Nice 💯💯💯

[@Si_digs]

Al these fancy diets these days 😂😂, Ken keeping it real .

[@johnf.kennedy7339]

I rediscovered an old photo of Ken Waller and Arnold Schwarzenegger and other bodybuilders. I photographed it and sent it to The Arnold Fans. It was recently added to their Twitter page.

[@kennethblackmonjr.5538]

Did he tell you his pre contest diet?

[@NemeanLion-]

Very funny interview. Hearing things like this always makes me wonder about how much protein a bodybuilder actually needs. I know it’s quite a bit more than the average person, but does a pro really need 500+ grams a day?

[@GoldenEraBookworm]

You'd be surprised, Vince recommended up to 10x protein per k of muscle! Such claims might be outlandish, but recent studies show that the more protein one eats, the greater the gains

[@deenzmartin6695]

*Mike Mentzer entered the chat*

[@NemeanLion-]

@@deenzmartin6695 yeah, he’s a supporter of lower protein ingestion, so it’s really hard to know what’s truly necessary.

[@tonylee-UK]

Those Lou Ferrigno pics will give me nightmares.

[@waynemanoffaith34]

Was that really him? Looks like someone else to me.

[@BrandonMichaels-we9vn]

@@waynemanoffaith34 It was AI generated, very badly generated AI. Perhaps Lou would of sent him a bill if he used his real picture.

[@TheAmbassadorOfBlue]

I take it the 2 images of the Lou Ferrigno in the black t-shirt are AI generated.

Poor Lou. 💪🏋️‍♂️🍦🍦❤

[@reamartin6458]

Wow 😮 test is a crazy drug 💉 amazing what he could eat and still look like that

[@MorganUnfreeman]

Testosterone does not work like that. He would suffer before a contest. Arnold wrote in his book that he admired Ken waller’s discipline eating tuna and drinking water for a contest

[@GoldenEraBookworm]

Draper used that diet too

[@GoldenEraBookworm]

He would eat like that off season!

[@reamartin6458]

That’s great, show me your natural stage photos. Thanks for the info.

[@waynemanoffaith34]

That doesn't look like Big Lou to me? Are u sure thats him?

[@jessfrankel5212]

Waller's recollection of him never taking juice off-season falls into the "That's total BS and I'll take that for $500, Alex" category. Waller WAS strong, particularly in the legs, and he had a massive, thick physique, but not taking the occasional shot/cycle off-season...total crap, as far as I'm concerned. As for the 'hilarious' ice cream story, that kind of humor reminds me of Bill Murray's character in Stripes making fun of the farm boy having his way with a cow. "I wanna party with you." Lame. Waller was a fine champion, but I doubt he--or any of the other champions of that era--were clean during the off-season.

[@2K9s]

Greek yogurt has a ton of protein, 2lbs is probably 100 grams.

[@Jari1973]

It was a good episode 😁 I remember my first proteins from the 80s.. tablets that had to be chewed in terrible quantities.. and they were damn expensive 😁 But then with all those stupid systems I made most of my muscles..

[@kingsize1182]

Off The Chain video.

[@DMMDwrestler]

No more AI images please. Low quality.

[@micahwest5347]

I love watching pumping iron but it would be even better if ken Waller disappeared after his first scene like one of the sacrificial crew members in the original star treks.

[@Supersleuth0987]

Find it hard to believe they totally went of steroids for any length of time, food alone wouldn’t preserve that kind of mass.

[@mr.critic]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@larrydowling]

we all did the same, when you train 3 on and 4 day on,Carlos i ate like a horse 2 chickens and take the skin off ,when your on the gear ,you eat for 2 persons ,its was normal ,Carlos you should take some HRT,with a doctors guidance,don't be scared ,remember its very possible ,you will keep the muscle gain you get from this ,at a certain in your life ,our bodys , never gain muscle ,please take the HRT NOW.there are more dangerous things in life then this ,your sports medicine Doctor will confirm this,and Carlos there is no way Arnold is going chat to anyone about his cycles in a million years .I know i have trained at World gym when he was with all of us,he is too clever to go into any detail about cycles.its not good policy with him ,my opinion only.aussie aussie aussie
