Wow. Very good. We REALLY need a debate Milos vs Georges. I LOVE the way Georges thinks healing with food etc and I am a HUGE fan of Milos. So bring them back for sure.
Re: Clarida- the rules state how to qualify for each event- and he did just that- and I don’t believe there is an overt rule against doing both. In that way, he earned it, point blank. As for why so both- I think Clarida has no chance to place that high in the open- but I think he can make a lot of those guys look weak (conditioning, balance, and density- overall completeness), similar to what DJ said- he could expose a lot of dudes. I think it’s a pride thing, and he knows it.
Anything can happen!! Clarida comes is with a few things Improved with the same Sliced Conditioning and Onstage Presence!! He does that and gets the Crowd and Judges behind him!! He can Place Top 10
They can't sell that nonsense to anyone that actually THINKS about what they are claiming... They did a study at the North Pole with Santa and raindeers - for the last 40 years...🙄
I really appreciate the podcast! Would be awesome if you could upload them quicker. Many times I am following conversations on the channel and I know the outcome already of the topic and it makes it less exciting. Happened multiple times in this podcast. Much love
These guys are so intelligent! Getting into this body building lifestyle so young and still only 20 I have a lot to learn and these guys are a goldmine of information. Thanks Dennis for the great podcast!
Dexter Jackson always motivated me to the fullest! He's one of the main reasons I took up bodybuilding as a hobby! All of these four guys are GREAT role models 👏👌 if you love bodybuilding like me
Shaun Clarida and Angel Calderon Frias from Spain are both qualified for 212 and open, are 40 years old, I think they should do both! They can do well in 212 and I think in open their conditioning can beat out big names, only limiting is their height 5’2” Shaun 5’3” Angel
@@gisticz yea it definitely isn't for the GYM Shark CBUM crowd, but I am 31 and I love this stuff. I think anybody 30 and over loves this stuff - which is a huge audience.
Milos is right; How reliable are those studies? 80.000 people religiously ate 300-500g of protein for 20 years, didnt skip any meal and they concluded all died 10% earlier than the other test subjects?
I l love how milos is so transparent and real you can truly tell that he speaks his mind unlike Dennis and farah. Milos will say something even if u don’t like it 💯
Man DexterJackson is one of my favorite Bodybuilders of all times. Shout out to him and all his accomplishments, but Damn his Ego is off the chain. Lord forbid you say ANYTHING negative or give any criticism about his career/body when he was competing this dude is going to argue you down to dust..lol
Another great podcast! Quick one, as you all mentioned animal proteins and at the begging croatian pro Petar Klancir, he is actually a vegan so that is something new to pro stage.
They need to have an overall champ put the classic winner the 212 winner and open winner on stage at the same time and let the judges pick a overall winner
Common sense.... It's amazing to me to see how easily targeted information is sent to the masses - knowing nobody would even question it or think about the claims...
I think the solution is winner of each Olympia class battle it out in the OVERALL: for example Derek Lunsford vs Big Ramy vs CBum in 2021. ( we can’t include mens physique sorry😅) And this way Shaun could compete in 212 and if he wins, battle it out with Open and classic
None of the young guys coming up will will have the longevity that Dex had! I dont see any of these guys lasting more than 10 yrs without the health problems setting in.
Never ever again we will have no one achieved what Dexter did. This new generation mind set do not generate this level of determination devotion on a longevity.
Never say never....but for sure - it will be a hard task. I was going to do 100 pro shows before I retire... 2000 - I didn't get medical clearance to compete and 2007/8/9 - I was suspended....so I gave up... But, it is highly possible if someone is motivated and for sure next Dexter Jackson will surface soon...
Milos I agree with you on Never say Never, but i repeat myself on what i say the world is a different place. I respect all the real prep coach, but everyone is a coach nowadays kids do one show and the week after they became a coach. There is more knowledge and less Dedication and determination. No one is willing to train 5 years before going for their pro card, pro card have become a business so i am very sorry to tell you Never Ever Again (respect for Dexter now and forever)
NO research can provide you with more realistic results than the experience of these top of the top level bodybuilders. We need at least a second interview to expand the discussion on the safe protein intake sources and quantity for bodybuilders, not average humans
@@MilosSarcevOfficialTH-camPage Indded, in most practical cases. If professional bodybuilders struggle to stick to a meal plan for a few months, does anyone really expect average study participants to be more obligated to follow a meal plan for months or even years for some pocket money? I am struggling to buy that
Have you guys seen Deric Lunsford this week He can not go to the 212 any more , He would loose ( to much muscle to cut down & He is fighting like Dexter said for 5 to 3rd in the open!!
Dereck would smoke Flex, and these guys are way to worried about hirting feelings. Dennis is the only one letting them hang, lol Maybe next time. Still a great show. Id also bet Flex saw Lungsford pics and retired. Hes the 212 champ and if he dwarfed him, it would ruin his name. Y’all brought it up though thank god for Flex hahaha
@@Johnjay610 there are dozens of guys these days that train harder than Dexter. Dexter was one of the best but he's one the the last people who should be saying people don't train hard anymore
NO! Choose one. Stick to the division you want. No one should one able to jump from one to another just because. Its not good for the sport. Let competitors compete for what they trained for, not go to another division to try and make a lose, a win.
i know a lot of bodybuilders which competes and they mostly eat vegan protein,not only vegan but most of there protein-intake!and they do great with this protein sources!
These guys are way off when it comes to who can have a Dexter Jackson type of physic it’s definitely not Labrada lol. The guys that remind me of young Dexter are Rafael Brandow and Sibusiso Kotelo
I mean Milos is right - these people in these studies don't abide by the rules of the study. No person lives their whole life abiding to these studies, so they are not credible. And George is too even comprehend Milos argument - Milos tried to explain 3 times and George still didn't get it...and this guy is a doctor - god help us
Dex keeps talking about how it's all about food and him eating 2 cups of rice with 8 ounces of meat is what is all about. That's nothing, guy is literally delusional of how good his genetics are.
That's why I love old school bodybuilders because they would mostly be off everything in this generation they cant handle being off everything look at kai Greene staying 300ps for years and not doing any shows once bodybuilders start dying and Phil heath and others got the covid and losing weight he came down off the steroids and downsized. it's about being healthy why stay on something for so long like that 300ps ain't healthy staying on steroids ain't healthy. Knowing this generation of bodybuilders are pushing so many new gears to speed the size up for one big show is crazy.
I don't understand Dexter's argument about not letting Clarida compete in the open and 212 because they let Dexter compete in the open and the masters before
Yeah that was two different months brother not the same weekend. As you heard.. I did reframe and said since it’s on the same night.. 212 finals and open pre judge then I was cool with that. I thought they were on two different nights.
Neither of you guys addressed the real issue. The real fckn issue is the sport itself! As long as the criteria of the “mass monster” is the norm using more gear and being on 24/7 this problem won’t go away!
George with the worst advice ever to Dexter. “Hey Dexter come off your doctor prescribed HRT and do my PCT protocol. Once you’ve don’t that we’ll put you back on HRT. Cause you want to be healthy right?”. Do these guys even know what HRT stands for? Dexter is over 50 with years of steroid abuse. His hormones are shot for sure. Sad thing is Dexter listens to him 💦
I agree. Apparently george has a PhD which is great. A phD is a huge accomplishment but to advise him to be non compliant to the prescription of his medical doctor is irresponsible. He was prescribed That for a reason. I personally think that after the health scares, Farah is kind of going over the top to promote his health and longevity business. I have seen several of his clients protocols and he was not always like this.
@@daviddecocq1162 I’m going to go out in a limb and say he has no PHD haha. He’s a compulsive liar and has been caught out many times. Now he is putting people health in danger. Why do a PCT knowing fully well he’ll go back on TRT? I guess they didn’t cover that in PHD class.
This one was the best… A video testimonial by a Rochester bodybuilder comes under fire by the city police officers' union. They call the bodybuilder a fraud. The locust club which represents the Rochester Police Department is now demanding an apology from local bodybuilder George Farah. They say Farah made a video falsely claiming to be a police officer injured in the line duty. It was a promotional internet video for a supplement company part of a group of testimonials on true strength. But Farah has taken an incident that occurred in 1997, twisted the facts or created his own and tried to sell himself as a former rookie cop hurt while responding to a bank robbery. George Farah of Webster has had a successful career as a bodybuilder, placing in many national competitions over the past decade. But it's his claims of an earlier career that have caught the attention of the union representing the Rochester Police Department. Rochester Police Locust Club President Mike Mazzeo said, “We're angered and insulted that this individual's fraudulent account.” He's talking about this internet video which, until recently, could be seen on the website of Optimum Nutrition -- a vitamin and supplement company Farah is affiliated with. In it, Farah offers this testimonial. "I got a job in the police department. And, uh, basically, I was there...a rookie...brand new. I wasn't even working. I got a call and I heard that one of the banks was getting robbed and it happens that I was in the area. So I stopped by to help and somehow, I really don't like to talk about it too much because it hinds of brings back really bad memories, but to make the story short. I got shot three times." A compelling story, but it isn't exactly true. Farah was the victim of a serious shooting back in august of 1997 on Ringle Street near Chili Avenue along with another man but there was no bank robbery and the union says Farah has never been a police officer. Mazzeo said, “We're further outraged that he used this phony story to portray himself as a hero who has overcome adversity to be a role model for others." Today the locust club brought in three Rochester Police officers who are still recovering after having been shot while on duty -- Anthony DiPonzio, Daniel Brochu and Luca Martini. Officer Daniel Brochu said, “For me, quite frankly, I feel insulted. I'm totally offended.” Farah's own website only claims he was shot in a robbery attempt. I-Team 10 went to his house Thursday morning but a nanny there said he was at work and referred us to his attorney, who declined comment until he's spoken to his client. In the meantime, the district attorney's office says the video doesn't provide enough proof that Farah has committed any crimes by telling his tale but is seeking more information about the bodybuilder. First Assistant District Attorney Sandra Doorley said, “What I want to do as a representative of the district attorney's office is to implore the community, if you've been defrauded by Mr. Farah or been victimized by him in any way, to either contact your local law enforcement, Rochester Police Department, or the district attorney's office and we will thoroughly investigate any allegations." The police union is asking for an apology from Farah directly and they're demanding that Optimum Nutrition sever ties with him. The supplement company has removed the video testimonial from its website. As for the company standing behind Farah, as of now it appears they are to some degree. His likeness still shows up on their website. However, in an e-mail to the police union, a manager for Optimum Nutrition says they are sorry they posted the fabrication, that they took Farah at his word and they will be taking some action against him. It is unknown what that action will be.
Wow. Very good. We REALLY need a debate Milos vs Georges. I LOVE the way Georges thinks healing with food etc and I am a HUGE fan of Milos. So bring them back for sure.
George Farah is extremely intelligent, great show!
Re: Clarida- the rules state how to qualify for each event- and he did just that- and I don’t believe there is an overt rule against doing both. In that way, he earned it, point blank. As for why so both- I think Clarida has no chance to place that high in the open- but I think he can make a lot of those guys look weak (conditioning, balance, and density- overall completeness), similar to what DJ said- he could expose a lot of dudes. I think it’s a pride thing, and he knows it.
Anything can happen!! Clarida comes is with a few things Improved with the same Sliced Conditioning and Onstage Presence!!
He does that and gets the Crowd and Judges behind him!! He can Place Top 10
P
Man Milo's cracked me up when he got mad bout the protein study lol Real Talk Roundtable would be a great name for this segment
They can't sell that nonsense to anyone that actually THINKS about what they are claiming...
They did a study at the North Pole with Santa and raindeers - for the last 40 years...🙄
Milos for president
George knows his stuff plus he talks about longevity not a young guy building muscle
Enjoyed this one a lot. Good group and mix. Never be a Dex or Ronnie again. George went through it glad he’s here ❤
Yay anything with Milos gets watched! Gives me a nice mental break from the Luna saga haha
If Dexter can do both regular Olympia and Master olympia then Shaun should be able to do 212 and Open
Loved hearing Dexter speak on this podcast. Smart dude😉
Great decision on this format Dennis I’m glued to the show🔥💪🏽🔥
Man this is my new favorite podcast. Love seeing my era of guys talk
This is awesome. To hear legends talk about past and present bodybuilding in a friendly unrushed setting is what bodybuilding needed.
Bodybuilding would be the exact same without the podcast.
Lee Haney won 8 Olympias at age 31. THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN! The GOAT.
No controversies behind his wins as well whereas Ronnie Dorian Jay all have wins that could have gone to other bodybuilders
Lee Haney is a legend.
Loved all ower the world.
Big Lee fan from Norway 💪👍
Have a Nice day man 👍
Word Up ☝🏾
Mr. Haney is amazing as a bodybuilder and a person! True champion
@@thelastshallbefirst3653 yes Haney is always super cool.
I really appreciate the podcast! Would be awesome if you could upload them quicker. Many times I am following conversations on the channel and I know the outcome already of the topic and it makes it less exciting. Happened multiple times in this podcast. Much love
Amazing show Dennis. Love it now when you get a few guys together and talk. Keep them coming. Huge fan from when you competed and now !!
Really appreciate Milos' honesty! He tells us what we need to hear! No political/correct internet-answers.
Man i love these podcasts the old school round table!!
Another unbelievable episode, living legends. Thanks DJ!
I love all you guys. Keeping it real and truthful.
These guys are so intelligent! Getting into this body building lifestyle so young and still only 20 I have a lot to learn and these guys are a goldmine of information. Thanks Dennis for the great podcast!
You're going to be broke and die very young.
@@ingaleerus2836 Never said I’m hoping on the drugs anytime soon
Best episode yet. Love that panel. More please 🙏
One of favorites TH-cam podcasts now😎🤟🏻🤟🏻💯💯💯💯
Dennis, can we get a quick rountable critique on the Indy Pro and Blessings win/ Predictions for the NY Pro?
This is awesome mixing it up. Keep the great o.g video's coming dennis. Great name you made for this podcast 😎👌🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
great podcast, much more enjoyable compared to last time
Interesting hearing this after Blessings won and Flex retired.
Lol....Blessing shut us all up...Great job he did with a help of George....We were not talking about this Blessing...
Absolutely LOVEEEE this legends table
Dexter Jackson always motivated me to the fullest! He's one of the main reasons I took up bodybuilding as a hobby! All of these four guys are GREAT role models 👏👌 if you love bodybuilding like me
Excellent Dennis! Keep this round table stuff going!
WoW, Outstanding episode 💯 Thanks Dennis
Awesome we need more of the real talk roundtable and the debate Milos vs George's about protein and food etc.
Shaun Clarida and Angel Calderon Frias from Spain are both qualified for 212 and open, are 40 years old, I think they should do both! They can do well in 212 and I think in open their conditioning can beat out big names, only limiting is their height 5’2” Shaun 5’3” Angel
Great podcast , definitely got the right guys on the podcast .
DJ got to get them all on again together .
When Dennis and Milos said Max Griffin and Dexter said who's Max Griffin 😂 His name is Charles Griffin lol
Excellent podcast. The issue is the youngsters are not going to hear the message. They are blinded! There will never be another Dexter!
Epic interview. Great information ✊🏾🙏🏾💪🏾🏋🏾
Loved this podcast!! Amazing Pros! Awesome Host!!
Dexter Jackson is so freaking cool. I bet he's the funniest dude to hangout with.
Wow this is incredible content. I love Fouad, but if Dennis keeps doing these roundtables this will easily be the #1 Bodybuilding Podcast.
Blasphemy , Dennis is great but this is reaching . Plus his stuff is weeks behind always.
@@adamcampbell3189 totally agree dennis needs to upload quicker....dennis' podcasts are more for the older gen/real bodybuilding community I feel
@@gisticz yea it definitely isn't for the GYM Shark CBUM crowd, but I am 31 and I love this stuff. I think anybody 30 and over loves this stuff - which is a huge audience.
Lol this was good stuff guys. Keep these round tables comin. DJ, this is gold baby, awesome job 👏🏼👏🏼
Dexter talking about Training and dieting hard is the best
Milos is right; How reliable are those studies? 80.000 people religiously ate 300-500g of protein for 20 years, didnt skip any meal and they concluded all died 10% earlier than the other test subjects?
17 seconds earlier....
Makes sense to not add another prep. One prep, two events.
These videos are great!
God bless you George.
💪🏽. Dennis is a good host.
I'd like to hear George Farah more,.
Never really heard much from George, but he’s good 😊👍🏻👍🏻💯
I l love how milos is so transparent and real you can truly tell that he speaks his mind unlike Dennis and farah. Milos will say something even if u don’t like it 💯
To my detriment...but - I pride myself to be straightforward and say exactly what I think...
@@MilosSarcevOfficialTH-camPage That's why we love you Milos! Always keeping it real.
So much for Milo’s opinions!
No there will never be another dexter
Man DexterJackson is one of my favorite Bodybuilders of all times. Shout out to him and all his accomplishments, but Damn his Ego is off the chain. Lord forbid you say ANYTHING negative or give any criticism about his career/body when he was competing this dude is going to argue you down to dust..lol
Milos says Nick - not in the mix because of shape…good point Ronnie and Dorian and Ctuler…all shape guys lol
I think they should do over all to choose MR Olympia champion
Wow finally some common sense talk about the deaths in bodybuilding and all sports. Very refreshing to hear.
BODYBUILDING LEGENDS 👍
Thank you Dennis for going with Experienced School… not old 🤣
I love dexter but disagree with him in regards to shaun clarida...Milos hit the nail on the head with everything he said in return
Another great podcast! Quick one, as you all mentioned animal proteins and at the begging croatian pro Petar Klancir, he is actually a vegan so that is something new to pro stage.
I appreciate Milos
Sonny schmidth in 95 did the Olympia and the Olympia master , he won the master but was last in the normal , so , Sean should do both 🔥
Hy Dennis !! Where is Ramy ? Hope he is doing well ! Grüsse aus Deutschland ✌️
They need to have an overall champ put the classic winner the 212 winner and open winner on stage at the same time and let the judges pick a overall winner
Milos was right about the studies
Common sense....
It's amazing to me to see how easily targeted information is sent to the masses - knowing nobody would even question it or think about the claims...
@@MilosSarcevOfficialTH-camPage 100% agree
I think the solution is winner of each Olympia class battle it out in the OVERALL: for example Derek Lunsford vs Big Ramy vs CBum in 2021. ( we can’t include mens physique sorry😅)
And this way Shaun could compete in 212 and if he wins, battle it out with Open and classic
None of the young guys coming up will will have the longevity that Dex had! I dont see any of these guys lasting more than 10 yrs without the health problems setting in.
Derek Lundsford should do both 212 and Open so he can win the 212 again and place in top 5 of the Open.
Blessings Legs are Way too Spread Apart! He needs to bring them just a bit closer
It used to be a rule ...
Heck , can Big Ramy hop on a 212 stage if he needed an extra 50k ?
Never ever again we will have no one achieved what Dexter did.
This new generation mind set do not generate this level of determination devotion on a longevity.
Never say never....but for sure - it will be a hard task.

NO research can provide you with more realistic results than the experience of these top of the top level bodybuilders. We need at least a second interview to expand the discussion on the safe protein intake sources and quantity for bodybuilders, not average humans

Max griffen ganna kill it :D
Have you guys seen Deric Lunsford this week
He can not go to the 212 any more , He would loose ( to much muscle to cut down & He is fighting like Dexter said for 5 to 3rd in the open!!
Lol Dennis said max griffin and dexter is like who is that haha that’s two different guys
Charles Griffin , Max Charles .. think they mixed up the names . Dexter knew 😂
Dereck would smoke Flex, and these guys are way to worried about hirting feelings. Dennis is the only one letting them hang, lol
Maybe next time. Still a great show.
Id also bet Flex saw Lungsford pics and retired. Hes the 212 champ and if he dwarfed him, it would ruin his name.
Y’all brought it up though thank god for Flex hahaha
If they do not show to the 2022 the Promoters will shut up( When a Bodybuilder qualified to go he has a right to compete
Bring back Chris Cormier for the next one, but not flex because he just needs his own solo podcast 😂
there needs to be a minimum weight for the open. call it 220 its silly to have tiny guys in the open
Chris Bumstead trains harder than Dexter ever did. Compare his squats with Dexter's 315 pad on the bar quarter squats.
Stop fan boy
@@Johnjay610 there are dozens of guys these days that train harder than Dexter. Dexter was one of the best but he's one the the last people who should be saying people don't train hard anymore

Why does Dexter keep saying Shaun should've done the Arnold? How can he do the Arnold? He wasn't invited ?
Trust me if he wanted to get in the Arnold all he has to do is tell them and he’s 100% in.
Tonio Burton would be the best physique to play Dexter. He’s not as good but he resembles Dexter a lot.
Dex keeps talking about how it's all about food and him eating 2 cups of rice with 8 ounces of meat is what is all about. That's nothing, guy is literally delusional of how good his genetics are.
I agree- maybe HE didn’t need a lot of drugs or protein but have we really seen genetics like dexters before? No.
Max griffin
Dexter’s argument is nonsensical. Shaun should be allowed to do both, and has reason to do both, even if it’s just to get another check.
Much better without Flex. Thank you!!

This one was the best…
A video testimonial by a Rochester bodybuilder comes under fire by the city police officers' union. They call the bodybuilder a fraud.
The locust club which represents the Rochester Police Department is now demanding an apology from local bodybuilder George Farah. They say Farah made a video falsely claiming to be a police officer injured in the line duty.
It was a promotional internet video for a supplement company part of a group of testimonials on true strength. But Farah has taken an incident that occurred in 1997, twisted the facts or created his own and tried to sell himself as a former rookie cop hurt while responding to a bank robbery.
George Farah of Webster has had a successful career as a bodybuilder, placing in many national competitions over the past decade. But it's his claims of an earlier career that have caught the attention of the union representing the Rochester Police Department.
Rochester Police Locust Club President Mike Mazzeo said, “We're angered and insulted that this individual's fraudulent account.”
He's talking about this internet video which, until recently, could be seen on the website of Optimum Nutrition -- a vitamin and supplement company Farah is affiliated with.
In it, Farah offers this testimonial. "I got a job in the police department. And, uh, basically, I was there...a rookie...brand new. I wasn't even working. I got a call and I heard that one of the banks was getting robbed and it happens that I was in the area. So I stopped by to help and somehow, I really don't like to talk about it too much because it hinds of brings back really bad memories, but to make the story short. I got shot three times."
A compelling story, but it isn't exactly true.
Farah was the victim of a serious shooting back in august of 1997 on Ringle Street near Chili Avenue along with another man but there was no bank robbery and the union says Farah has never been a police officer.
Mazzeo said, “We're further outraged that he used this phony story to portray himself as a hero who has overcome adversity to be a role model for others."
Today the locust club brought in three Rochester Police officers who are still recovering after having been shot while on duty -- Anthony DiPonzio, Daniel Brochu and Luca Martini.
Officer Daniel Brochu said, “For me, quite frankly, I feel insulted. I'm totally offended.”
Farah's own website only claims he was shot in a robbery attempt.
I-Team 10 went to his house Thursday morning but a nanny there said he was at work and referred us to his attorney, who declined comment until he's spoken to his client.
In the meantime, the district attorney's office says the video doesn't provide enough proof that Farah has committed any crimes by telling his tale but is seeking more information about the bodybuilder.
First Assistant District Attorney Sandra Doorley said, “What I want to do as a representative of the district attorney's office is to implore the community, if you've been defrauded by Mr. Farah or been victimized by him in any way, to either contact your local law enforcement, Rochester Police Department, or the district attorney's office and we will thoroughly investigate any allegations."
The police union is asking for an apology from Farah directly and they're demanding that Optimum Nutrition sever ties with him.
The supplement company has removed the video testimonial from its website.
As for the company standing behind Farah, as of now it appears they are to some degree. His likeness still shows up on their website.
