Rich Piana Interview: Rich Talks Hate, Addiction, And Attention | Iron Cinema

Rich Piana has been in the news a lot lately because of a very tragic medical emergency that has left him in a medically induced coma. And while Rich was a very polarizing figure (especially of late) - we all wish him a speedy and healthy recovery. We plan our Iron Cinema releases in advance - and as such I was planing on releasing more of our extended Generation Iron 2 interview with Rich Piana before his recent emergency... but I think there's no better time to reflect on the kind of man Rich is as he slowly recovers.
In this interview Rich talks with me about subjectivity of physiques and how judges views don't necessarily match what we might want for ourselves. As Rich puts it - to be a successful pro bodybuilder you need to be addicted to competing. It's less about what they want and more about what they need. That's why Rich strayed away from pro competing and kept to his own idea of what his body should look like. We also talk about trolls & haters on the internet and how the attention actually helps him become more successful.
As many fans, friends, and family send their prayers to Rich Piana - perhaps this new interview footage can help lift the spirits of those wishing for his speedy recovery. You can watch it in the video above.

Is there anything wrong in my comment?

[@sp1x3r]

I Dont know who cares if he used steroids or not but iam going to reply anyways. Well, Other people said bad and negative things about him or maybe he wasn't the greatest person in the past but you know what? We've all made mistakes, We've all said or done things we are not proud of, It takes a real man to stop and realize his mistake and appologize,He did that even when he didn't have to but he did that because he was a real man Atleast he wasn't a fake natty claiming that he just worked his ass off and ate to get in his shape,he admitted his steroids abuse and spoke about drugs like no one else did, he warned everyone to not use steroids and to stay natural as long as they possibly can, Also the most inspirational thing about him was his mentality and how positive and mentally strong he was, Back in the days when he used to compete and doing literally What Ever It Takes To Win And Reach His Goals! and this is the real champion's mindset No matter what you say, Rich changed alot of people's lifes positively and he'll stay a legend despite anything. Finally and as Rich Said : "Keep hating and keep commenting, Its making me money"

[@bem1942]

EVERYTHING CAN KILL YOU he died massively successful, financially and physically and mentally happy and thats what matters most.

[@Shadowboxe]

b em He was a physical wreck, addicted to opiates and with years of organ damage due to steroids and party drugs. That's why he had the heart attack and died. Shake your head man.

[@eileenwright1742]

b em I suppose it depends on how you define "massively successful". By whose terms? You list the world's definition of success but what's missing is spiritually and emotionally (fit). He seemed to be a great guy. Honest, caring, driven. Yet, he readily admitted he was raised to believe that "the outer shell" was of primary importance. He realized this was not good. But it was ingrained and he couldn't escape this mindset. I felt for him. It seemed his self-worth was driven by his appearance and what others perceived of his looks. So much so, he was willing to take way too many drugs to keep up an image well into his 40s, a time where one usually sees that being true to oneself is what matters. There's a part of this in many of us; me included. May his soul rest in eternal peace. A good man.

[@davidvaughan2706]

I'm new to his videos and was living in LA when he was alive. All of my employees were in to fitness, some were body builders or nutritionists, some martial artists, but most just trained very hard for the job. They were committed to excellence through serving at a maximum level in their own capacity. If only I had taken my own fitness more seriously at that time, and began following this humble genuine inspirational man, maybe I would have made better health choices over the years. After 22 years on the job I now have returned to my roots of lifting weights regularly, and I owe it to Rich who has inspired me from the grave. There's a long way to go but if I struggle I pull up a video and there is the inspiration... RIP Rich.

He knew and openly discussed the possible effects and risks of using different steroids/hormones/drugs etc., and was just dedicated to living on his own terms doing what he loved and made him happy...how can anyone not respect that. Seemed like a super hard worker, down to earth, and really enjoyed entertaining/making his fans happy.

[@cyf1434568100]

He is one of the most genuine and honest guy I’ve ever seen.Rip brother

[@WeisserStolz1]

Ur a good dude rich. Fuck these jealous people that hate on you. Really sends a clear message of those wishing they had your size and fame. But they don't! So fuck em all, get out of that coma and let's get back to the gym! 5 %er for life

[@ksenobite]

Exactly, I can´t cope with all this hate towards him. It seems that all worthless pieces of shit hated Rich. And all because he was an achiever, something that those losers never be. All hate comments really indicate how great personality he really was

[@johndavies7185]

[@mehulpaul5700]

RIP Piana. You had a great knowledge.

[@gerryvanderzeypen1214]

I LIKED THIS GUY and I am SO SORRY that he passed away. Watch ALL of his videos and realise that he was out spoken about "things" BUT, never the less enjoyed every minute of what I saw including his workout routines...AT 75 years old now and STILL exercising every day with one thing or another, I appreciated Rich Piana and his straight forward talk....REST IN PEACE big man...you should still be here......

[@labqiniassuh2243]

That's the reason I always love rich piana..he's so honest

[@oumnialadraa3563]

[@MuppsterMupp]

Man I miss Rich, always told the truth that noone ever would do. You are missed, hope you have an awesome time where ever you are

[@BurnerTurner]

This man will always be a good example to be as transparent and honest as you can. A lot of people wont agree with you or like it but goddamnit they gotta respect the honesty. Rich was an open book and i for one like many others respect the hell out of that. RIP BEHEMOTH
