Funny you said Chris Cook Minx as I met him in June at the Toronto classic.He shed about 30lbs after the Arnold Classic said he was off but was very nice and approachable and thanked me for coming up to him and saying hi:) Met a few other "pieces of work",VERY highly competitors and they were total A-holes:(.I always give the benifit of doubt but he was the same with others and at different events as well,I find that sad:(
Shawn Ray is very nice too!

wrong chris cook. this chris is a powerlifter not a body builder.
 
Charles Poliquin said he worked with 3 pros, who could not bench better than 6 reps with 315.

IMO what seperates pro bodybuilders from the rest of everyone else is genetics. The genetics to react well to drugs. I have always felt that those who become the best bodybuilders are the ones who can take a little drugs and get huge, and take alot of drugs and get bigger, and the law of diminishing returns starts farther out than for most of us.

I can't imagine being pro size and still that weak... I believe it though, some of the huge juiced up bbers at my gym are not much stronger than I am.

so true.... i see this as well... i know i am not HUGE by any means *5;9 215-220lbs* but i see dudes the same height weighing close to 240-250 with arms like 19-20 inchs struggling with less then what i do..... i know i am powerful for my size but youd expect the same from some of these monsters...

and for u minx, that pic is so killer.. love the shoes u just need some short shorts to show them right off. hahhaha, my wife is really impressed with what u can do.. her bench is lag but still really good for a little girl, she can slap on 35's each side and pound out 3-4 reps usually.. still waiting for the day she hits the 135 mark, that will be cool... keep it up and hope to hear more from ya!!!

150!!! I am impressed... Bench is definetly not one of my strong points. Looks like you'll be getting that 165 in no time.
 
I now have motivation too. It is so easy for me to not push myself 100% since I am training alone right now. It helps motivate me seeing people like you pushing themselves as hard as possible! thnx!!!
