    Do you have the body to become a pro bodybuilder?

    I know we all here excercise and juice up but are you good enough to turn pro? What are your views?

    genetics, and not just good muscle bellies etc.. but you have to respond to gear, your abilty to train hard and eat right, there are SOOOOO many factor's. Plus even if you get a card, most of the pro's are broke, i know what my food alone cost, can't image what it would be if i was 300lbs off seasons. Better way to make money in industry besides, being on stage as pro.. i think

    Do you mean IFBB pro?
    I think to make it in The Musclemania,or NGA as a pro it wouldn't be as hard. And those guys/Gals make bank on the side modelin' and such. I hope oneday.

    Never because I don't find the idea of cutting up fun,and to get anywhere in competitive bodybuilding you need to do some cycles somewhere down the line and they only thing I plan to cycle is good ol' Creatine Monohydrate

    Same here. I really despise my genetics.

    Also I dont think I would want to be that big, but again I know how it is...the bigger you get the bigger you want to be so who knows.

    I know many of us dream of having bodies like the pros like Dennis Newman,Lee Priest,Ronnie Coleman but having those kind of bodies is a job in itself.

    I'm with Gear101 on this, a semi-pro or smaller contest maybe, but I could never get big enough to be a real pro... I don't think I could break 240-250 with a low BF without some major chemical enhancement, and I don't mean just steriods . I think genetics and response to gear and training make this biggest difference. Besides, I don't think most of the pros are human... they at least have to be demigods or something
