And I guarantee 100% you will have problems with your joints. You're maybe not feeling anything right now but it's just temporary, believe me, at your age I would be very careful.
Thanks for your concern, but parts of this video were taken over twenty years ago, and yet I have no joint problems. What you're not seeing on the video is the warming up process. To see a more recent video of my training look for my Feeling Strong Now video on You Tube.
Well, I've been an AARP member for quite a few years now. Still feeling strong, still training heavy, and still training like there is no tomorrow...with no joint problems to speak of. Was that a money back guarantee :-)
This is amazing, Mario. No one would mistake me for a bodybuilder, but I've spent a lot of time in gyms over the years and haven't ever seen anyone in person lift those kind of weights - and even those pushing out heavy reps don't usually display the quality of form you display here. Impressive, and inspirational.
@xKingPola3ux I can't tell for sure from this short segment, but I think it's a hot water bottle - with lining far thicker than a balloon. A few strongmen have exploded hot water bottles with their own lung power as a demonstration of strength; it's dangerous to try it though unless you both have the power and stamina for it, and know the right technique to keep the air from rushing back into your lungs.
respect man! GOod for you. But that leg press is scaring me. I know a guy who popped a disc from letting his knees fall back on his chest to hard. But do your thing man!
Cringing watching you do the leg press. your lower back was curling up , and you appeared to be locking out every rep, unloading the muscle and working the joint. I am so glad i learned differently. Every body 45+ i know of that trained are falling apart.
@omhealer FYI - I'm now 55+ and still training like there is no tomorrow (with no joint problems). The important thing is to prime the pump. Make sure you warm up and train the muscle through a full range of motion. There is nothing wrong with locking your knees on the leg press, just don't hyper-extend them. That's where trainees experience the most injuries on this exercise. Of course, everyone is different and should train the way they feel is best for them. Stay healthy, Mario
@2admturiggol ...I believe in training like there is no tomorrow, eating natural, getting plenty of rest, and staying positive...no matter what. The last time I used nutritional supplements was about 40 years ago. In addition, I have never taken anabolic enhancers of any kind, or recreational drugs to get a high. True natural bodybuilding is "a way of life" that I have practiced for decades and continue to do so today.
Why listen to anti-steroid spammers and mistakes of god like steroidsR4? Check steroidTRUTH channel for the honest TRUTH about the positive effects of anabolic steroids.

greatings i am now doing 40 kgs on both legs and arms did heavy weight program again at the gym today doing light workout next week glad to be back at the gym again :)
see heres the thing....roids are illegal thats really the only problem with them...they dont kill you watch the documentary do your homework..the problem with being a natty( im one not by choice) is the big guys get all the contracts, supplements , win showes and get notoriety, its dis hearting to say the least, lift as pure as you like.. a natty will never be as big or strong as a chemically enhanced warrior ...which blows.
Heavy weight but dude on leg press but your going to ruin your back rounding it like that. I blew out a disc doing what your doing. Very loose form on most exercises. Hope you stay injury free.
your not gonna have perfect form with heavy weights some momentum will be involved like this guy is doing is fine if not the weight is too light or easy which there's nothing wrong with
i fucking hate it when people complain about form!! everyone is different so form will vary slightly from person to person! e.g volume and intensity..just depends on what you want....as long as you work the target muscle and get gains then there's no problem!
everyone says how he needs to work on his form and his form sucks.. he dumbshits, maybe this style works for him, if you look at other natural bodybuidlers like jim corvdova they train with that same explosive type of movements, and obviously he is doing something right because he looks better than all of you guys on this post right?
he may be a body builder but he is doing the incline leg press all wrong.
Its supposed to be slow and steady up and slow and steady down as well. he is letting the weight just drop, which could possibly pull a hamstring or calf muscle which would limit his body building substantially especially if he tore the muscles. Triple H who is a body builder as well as a wrestler tore his hamstring and was out of the ring for a year
el si que se ve un culturista natural, ojala que progrese en nuestro deporte, y si tal vez llege a tener algunas ayuditas, se nota que son muy pequeñas.
Eat alot chicken and healthy stuff, drink alot proteins and creatin and everyone, even with bad genes can get big.. To manny over train theyr bodies and that's wrong! Muscles gets bigger while having breaks after workouts. Remember eat alot.
I have better genes than most, does that mean I'm cheating? I think it would only be fair for those guys with inferior genes to use roids and balance the playing field.
hey mario i read that you were the founder of the Staten Island Bodybuilding Club.. whatever happened to the place? i live in SI and it would be great if that was still around today.
WOW! please take me 'under your wing' teach me everything you know and train me!! =] im totally natural and been training for ages but takes YEARS!!!! lol
i been doing natural bodybuilding, you get big but with steroids you can workout harder and more often since your muscles regenerate faster so i prefer a small ammount of steroids.
Steroids does not mean your lazy you got to workout more and harder to grow faster its not magical.
My dad has been bodybuilding for almost 30years and still has a lot of muscle mass with low bodyfat, he is 58. Many of his friends who are the same age as him took steroids when they in their 30s and got huge. Now they look like shit.
Creo que en el press de piernas se debe de sostener el peso no dejarselo caer sobre el pecho cuando lo vi mis rodillas me empezaron a doler. Por lo dmas muy buen fisico inspirador
Does anyone have hard evidence that proves that it is possible for humans to develop incredibly large muscles without using performance enhancing drugs?
well, there's natural body building competitions, anyone who is in that that has incredibly large muscles can't compete unless they pass the drug tests
fuck you you little boy bitch pussy! you don't tell him how to train...he tells you dumbass! locked knees or not he is still in better shape than you and can still kick your fuckin ass and so can I!
hes in better shap than me? umm ok buddy. id like to see you kick my ass. lets see if u can handlw 230lbs id handle u like they do in prison lol. so keep talking vivacock.
you're a little weak piece of fuckin shit. you know it and i know it. 230lbs of pussy! you know how i know you're not shit? because the guy is obviously in great shape and has been training twice as long as you've been born you fuckin faggot and your little young 21 year old ass is gonna criticize him?? shut the fuck up and learn somethin!
I perform the leg press throughout a full range of motion without hyper extending the knees (that's where trainees get hurt). I have been training for decades in this fashion and have never had a problem.
prima di mettere i video su Youtube impara a fare gli esercizi, nella pressa, il primo esercizio, blocchi l'articolazione in estensione, di questo passo a 50 anni cammini con le ginocchia spezzate....
What degree of muscular hypertrophy can a 'natural' human produce? No one really knows. But the best example I can find is mankind's first official world's strongest man. The first weight lifting champion of the first Olympic Games, in 1896, was Launceston Elliot. This man was incredibly well built compared to a 'typical male'. This man was incredibly strong compared to a 'typical male'. But by today's standards he looks like a substandard male.
Yet this was a man who devoted himself to resistance training and healthy nutrition. And was not merely good at what he does but he was the best of the best.
The main reason why humans are now capable of incredible degrees of muscular hypertrophy is because of the brilliant advances in performance enhancing drugs.
I agree with you. The prevalence of anabolic steroids has become a joke in the sport of bodybuilding, professional wrestling, and some sports. With all the lies in bodybuilding I can't blame you for being skeptical. But there are plenty of natural bodybuilders in the sport who are drug free for life. Today in my 50s, I'm as mobile, hostile, and agile as I've ever been. Some of the images in the video were taken over twenty years ago. Check out my FEELING STRONG NOW video for a look at me today.
Scientists in the 1900's discovered how to extract testosterone from animals and began injecting this substance [Brown-Sequard Elixir] into humans. In the 1930's scientist discovered how to produce synthetic testosterone. In the 1950's scientist discovered anabolic steroids. Is it really a coincidence that 'super-men' only started to appear, in mankind's history, just after scientist discovered how to extract testosterone from animals? I think not.
Being a natural for life bodybuilder/athlete I'll take it as a compliment that you think I take steroids. I must be doing something right! I believe in health, vitality, and longevity for life and the last thing I will ever do is take a drug to boost my ego (it's already big enough). True bodybuilding takes hard work, natural nutrition, and time. Those who don't think it is possible just never had the will, determination, and fortitude to 'Go For It'....naturally!!!
That's great! Just be careful and gradually increase the poundage over time. The last thing you want is a shoulder injury. By the time your twenty you'll be a power house. Don't forget to work the lower body.
"no more supplements and definatly never going to think about juicing"
Just take supplements they wont hurt you, steroids too just dont OD; 3 years from now, you will look like 5 years worth of training if you just do it right and lift heavy, you'd be suprised on how much gains you make just supplementing for a year straight then if you did'nt use anything for that year. By the way nice video.
wow i was really about to give in and start training with steroids until i saw this video, thanks a lot for the inspiration, no more supplements and definatly never going to think about juicing
Why? Supplements can only help. They are not cheating at all, and won't do anything for you if you don't work hard. You can bust your ass to increase 10%, or you can bust your ass to increase 12%.
I mostly train with free weights but mix in a machine every now and then if the exercise feels right. I do full squats, deadlifts, bench presses, everything and anything. The important thing is to believe in your training and to be consistent throughout the decades.
nice leg press. can you dunk a basketball? or does jumping just come with jump rope bs? I leg extend 130 lbs 8-10 reps for a month and didnt get crap in terms of jumping.
Awesome video. This is super encouraging. Wow man.

I perform the leg press throughout a full range of motion without hyper extending the knees (that's where trainees get hurt). I have been training for decades in this fashion and have never had a problem.

in both your leg press and squat you drop the weight real quick on the negative. You WILL wreck your knees doing this.

prima di mettere i video su Youtube impara a fare gli esercizi, nella pressa, il primo esercizio, blocchi l'articolazione in estensione, di questo passo a 50 anni cammini con le ginocchia spezzate....

What degree of muscular hypertrophy can a 'natural' human produce? No one really knows. But the best example I can find is mankind's first official world's strongest man. The first weight lifting champion of the first Olympic Games, in 1896, was Launceston Elliot. This man was incredibly well built compared to a 'typical male'. This man was incredibly strong compared to a 'typical male'. But by today's standards he looks like a substandard male.

Yet this was a man who devoted himself to resistance training and healthy nutrition. And was not merely good at what he does but he was the best of the best.
The main reason why humans are now capable of incredible degrees of muscular hypertrophy is because of the brilliant advances in performance enhancing drugs.

I agree with you. The prevalence of anabolic steroids has become a joke in the sport of bodybuilding, professional wrestling, and some sports. With all the lies in bodybuilding I can't blame you for being skeptical. But there are plenty of natural bodybuilders in the sport who are drug free for life. Today in my 50s, I'm as mobile, hostile, and agile as I've ever been. Some of the images in the video were taken over twenty years ago. Check out my FEELING STRONG NOW video for a look at me today.

Scientists in the 1900's discovered how to extract testosterone from animals and began injecting this substance [Brown-Sequard Elixir] into humans. In the 1930's scientist discovered how to produce synthetic testosterone. In the 1950's scientist discovered anabolic steroids. Is it really a coincidence that 'super-men' only started to appear, in mankind's history, just after scientist discovered how to extract testosterone from animals? I think not.

How do we know that this guy is not using Steroids?
The T/E ratio test for steroids is easy to beat. The only 'proof' we have that he is steroid free is that he states that he is 'natural'.
That is not good enough for me.
If it Sounds too Good to be True... It Probably is!

Being a natural for life bodybuilder/athlete I'll take it as a compliment that you think I take steroids. I must be doing something right! I believe in health, vitality, and longevity for life and the last thing I will ever do is take a drug to boost my ego (it's already big enough). True bodybuilding takes hard work, natural nutrition, and time. Those who don't think it is possible just never had the will, determination, and fortitude to 'Go For It'....naturally!!!

That's great! Just be careful and gradually increase the poundage over time. The last thing you want is a shoulder injury. By the time your twenty you'll be a power house. Don't forget to work the lower body.

"no more supplements and definatly never going to think about juicing"
Just take supplements they wont hurt you, steroids too just dont OD; 3 years from now, you will look like 5 years worth of training if you just do it right and lift heavy, you'd be suprised on how much gains you make just supplementing for a year straight then if you did'nt use anything for that year. By the way nice video.

Why? Supplements can only help. They are not cheating at all, and won't do anything for you if you don't work hard. You can bust your ass to increase 10%, or you can bust your ass to increase 12%.

do u do squats and deads..or stick with machines?
coolintake 4 years ago
Hi Coolintake,
I mostly train with free weights but mix in a machine every now and then if the exercise feels right. I do full squats, deadlifts, bench presses, everything and anything. The important thing is to believe in your training and to be consistent throughout the decades.
Thanks, Mario
