Nobody used Weider Products || ROBBY ROBINSON & FRANKO COLUMBU Protein Ad || Banned x2 Lifetimes

Ойын-сауық

Sculpting the best possible physique has been a life long journey. Learning from the best makes this process that much more exciting. Today I had the honor to sit down and talk with the Black Prince of Bodybuilding, Mr. Robby Robinson. He shares the Protein Ad story that ended with him being banned from the IFBB for 2 lifetimes. You will be surprised by his answer. Enjoy!

Now upon hearing this story it sounded they're the devil in BB. I feel so bad for Robby who I admit seeing him in magazines in 80s, but had no idea where he was the last 30 years. Had the Weiders went into equipment manufacturing or open gym franchises he'd have been even richer. I am so glad things eventually worked out for him in Holland like it meant to be at the time. I become Robby fan almost instantly. The man should get pay from people who still use likeness and picture/silhouette. The Weiders' estate owe him as much as 50 millions or more IMO

    I grew up in the Robby era. He was the one bodybuilder who always seemed contest ready.💪 Ands he's 100% correct. No one in the 80's used that welder crap. And even one better .No one used they're shitty equipment. Cool video Thanks !!

How was his relationship with the Weiders from that point on? etc...

    Robbie is a gifted bodybuilder, but what he often considers "the truth" is actually laced with a lot of anger. If you do that enough, expect to get some backlash. And not for nothing...if you don't believe in a product, don't endorse it. But don't take a paycheck from someone and then hurt their business -- and then complain about it.
