This older guy "Frenchy" (mid 50's, real tan, not huge, but good muscle size) went to this gym i used to work at. I'd see him training so freakin' hard all the time. So one day i started talking to him, and he tells me about how he used to train at Gold's and Venice Beach in the golden era. I was shocked. For 2 years, alls he did was train and hang with these guys. He was actually Robbie Robinson's oil guy for those 2 years as well. He told me story after story of the lives these guys lived, and it was awesome. a typical day would entail them waking up at around 8am. They'd eat a mountain of whole eggs, then they'd inject their juice (this is robbie i'm talking about in particular, but he thinks it was the same for Arnold and the others as well) (i asked him if he ever did, he said "no". half of me believed him, but hanging with these guys, how could you not?) anyways, they'd eat, juice, then train in the morning from 10 till 12 or 1. they'd either go out to eat right after that as a group, or they'd split up and eat. then they'd all go to the beach and nap, or split up and nap all day. then they'd wake up. they'd eat. they'd juice. then they'd hit the gym at 4 ot 5 till 6 or 7. after that, they'd usually go out, and they pull mad chicks. Obviously i asked him nonstop q's about Arnold, and he answered the best he could. The thing he said that struck me the most, and it sounded so cool cuz of his accent, was one day when i was training. I'm in there bustin' my ass, and after a hard set where i killed myself, i look over at him, mock pose and say "just like Arnold" and laugh. He looks at me dead in the eye and says, (and i'll try to type it so you could get a little of his accent) "ArnOOOHWD? No way, my man. ArnOOOHWD was a BEEEG Mother****er!" That was a good 4 years ago, and I remember that till this day. | |
