HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 фев 2025
- A lot has changed in the world of bodybuilding since Lee Priest began his Pro career in 1993. In this in-depth interview, Lee compares areas such as PED's, training, judging, coaching, making money, publicity, and more as they were 30 years ago vs. today and offers his no-holds-barred and honest opinion about what he feels what was better then, and what's better now. You don't want to miss this one because few in this industry tell it like it is quite the same way as Lee Priest!

Channels growing and great interviews Ron . Thanks
@@gwynroberts8624 appreciate you watching!
Keep up the good work Ron....there is definitely a place for quality non click bait bodybuilding journalism.....looking forward to seeing the channel grow....keep pumping out the content
@ Thanks. It can be frustrating- a few days ago I clicked on a video titled ‘What no one is talking about in the Jeff Nippard situation,’ and it was a trick. The guy talked purely about how he just got a new deadlift PR - and it had 30K views! 😡
Lee is the most refreshing voice in bodybuilding
Man this was a good interview.
Thanks, I had a great time talking to Lee!
Lee is always a blast! Great interwiev Ron 🙂
So glad for this interview Ron. So glad I witnessed Lee onstage in the 90's. My favorite decade for bodybuilding.
Lee…..one of my all time favorite bodybuilders and personalities 💯💯
great interview as always Ron, top shirt too, remember seeing Lee in a Gym in Aus when he was 18 or so, just incredible, when you see genetics like that its game over. Had as bit of yap with him at Doherty's Gym back in the day and he was a total gentleman, class act.
I’ve only been to Brisbane so far, but we do plan on visiting Sydney the next time our daughter and her Aussie husband go back there
@@RonHarrisMuscle Come to Sydney, Ron. Best city in the world.
Glad that Rpn finally got Lee on the show. I know in the past he said Lee was too controversial and seemed afraid of what he might say.
@@Sirgromulus when I was with MD, I had to be a lot more careful with anybody who might be offended
@RonHarrisMuscle I assumed as much!
That’s what I was thinking 😉👍🏼Great interview Ron🫡😁
That’s when he was with MD
Everything is different now days
Before nudes used to frowned upon, now there’s OF…
Steroids never talked about , now everyone talks what they use, even Olympian’s..
It’s what sells , so everyone caught on 🤷🏽♂️
Will listen to this doing cardio tonight
Lee is in the house! Woo woo! Legend 👑🥇🙌🇦🇺
I could have talked to Lee for 3 hours!
Great interview Ron! Lee
And yourself have good genuine chemistry
@@garrymcneil5897 thanks! I have known him for 30 years
Great Interview Ron , Lee is always a good laugh ☘️🇮🇪
I agree,Mike Christian definitely should've won the 1990 Olympia.
Mike was the very first Pro I ever met in 1988, such a nice guy- always smiling and positive
@@RonHarrisMuscle so if you smiling like a clown it makes you a “nice guy” ?
@ no, talking to him I got that impression
@@RonHarrisMuscle thank you sir for explaining
@RonHarrisMuscle I saw Mike in seminar at Kerry Kayes gym in Manchester over here in England.What a humble bloke.
Gnarly physique & personality! 🖤
Jay Cutler said that Lee was the one of the PROs that impressed him at Golds Gym Venice.
Lee,top5 genetics ever
Most men could never even look as good as he did at age 15 even with 20 years of juicing their brains out
@@RonHarrisMuscle to bad he looks like this at 52
@ I assume you mean the tattoos not the fact that he’s still in great shape?
I remember Jay Cutler saying his 1st impression when he saw Lee for the 1st time 😳😳😳👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Lee is always a great interview!! 🙏🏽
@@BrianNassar we talked for about an hour and 20 minutes. I could’ve easily talked to him for another hour.
Great interview. Always like hearing Lee talk. Great job Ron.
Great interview & reference videos 💯
Lee is one of the best examples of just how much genes determine things at the highest levels of bodybuilding. "Too much into the nuance and little things."
Not saying he's wrong! But it is an easy thing to say when one has some of the best bodybuilding genes ever. Lee would be a killer 212 guy today. He's very complete, with the only serious deficiencies being his hamstring and glute conditioning and somewhat his back and lats especially. Otherwise, he would be a threat to win the 212 every year. Just so amazingly impressive from the front and the side.
@@grahamgreene779 he looked better at 13 than most guys do by 30
@@RonHarrisMuscle He did indeed! And I've seen his mother on a bodybuilding stage - Wow! One can't say that about any other elite bodybuilder I know of. He was an amazing natural and responded very well to pharma and voila - a worldclass bodybuilder is born. I still think Danny Padilla has the best little guy - 5'3 under (seriously, no offense) - physique that I've seen - His 1981 Mr. O physique was so perfect, so complete, conditioned, full - great calves, forearms, back, etc.
Yes! Lee Priest!!!
Great interview
Love lee
Just subscribed and was wondering if you have interviewed John Parrilo
@@tonycrist2003 never but I should
I live in the cincinnati area john was the first diet guru John is a ledgen
Great interview Ron. Any chance you could get John Blechman and Lee on at the same time?
Two Legends. 😎💪
too kind!
Good interview....some of the same stories and then some new insights
Ron and Lee have both put the work in over the years
I think Ron is one of the only professionals among the RUclips bodybuilding channels.
@@doublem1975x appreciate that!
Test primo and NPP once a week with 5 dbol and i have 21in arms
People with great genetics do NOT need a ton of gear!
Lee when sam sulek training session
I once just went to World to buy baggies before heading to golds. After I said joe made me train there instead. 8 sets later, I got bored with no music. I left and walked to Mecca.
95 ironman was at LA Trade Tech. Rainy night
@@LA4HINGIS we were there!
I enjoy the usual ball busting, toking and joking Lee, but i will say, I do really like seeing Lee be a little more "serious" as he genuinely talks about this stuff
Lee's arms are just ridiculous. Well ok his whole physique is just insane. Jay cutler was right.
I remember Demeyo's rant after 93 usa. He was mad Lee got his card easier than the npc American route.
@@LA4HINGIS then Paul got his Pro card and made his debut at the Mr. Olympia by special invitation from Joe Weider himself
@@RonHarrisMuscle yep he did that rant in Flex magazine. Had some good points. He mentioned there's no reason to have the heaviest class weighing in. He felt his body was being judged while on the scale when he wasn't fully cared up.
❤
Lee 1.63m 129kg haha wtf??? 5.4 inches 285 pounds! thats just unreal!
I saw him at that weight, it wasn't pretty!
@@RonHarrisMuscle hahaha i could just imagine brother =) that is just insane!
I don't know why people are always lying, even on social media. And when you write something they don't like, they erase it.
Lee had only arms and nothing else. His back was small, no hamstrings, and don’t even talk about glutes because, at the time, that was a criteria. No chest. The judges sometimes rewarded him because he was under a Weider contract. I was disappointed when I saw the judges placing him ahead of some giants. When I saw his 2003 Olympia performance, I couldn't understand how this guy could be on stage with such a poor shape.
It's a shame and an insult to the bodybuilding and fitness community to be on stage in such a shape, to be at the Mr. Olympia with the elite.
ruclips.net/user/results?search_query=olympia+2003
It's alright Lee you could beat Flex in a walk off now
Lee is only 5"4, 200lb and a small guy that is why he did not need much gear. If he was 6"0 and 300lb he would have needed more.
@@simonkrebs6043 there aren’t many bodybuilders 6 foot or taller - most are between 5-4 and 5-10
@@RonHarrisMuscle You are correct around 5"10 seems to be the sweet spot in terms of proportions. It is also a lot easier to fill a smaller frame out as it takes less time and less heavy weights and so less injury potential.
Gear use is also related to the size of a body builder. The taller and heavier a body builder the higher doses they generally need to keep growing.
So it is much easier for a shorter body builder. The idea of the Mr OIympia however is "Best Built Man" which does also include height. So there is no way Lee could ever beat a prime Dorian, Ronnie, or Samson.
So Lee can get as many face tattoos as he wishes, or dribble as much as he wants. He was never good enough to beat Dorian or Ronnie who were rightfully the Mr Olympia's during Lee's prime.
@ nonetheless, that era had so much amazing talent: Dillet, Vince Taylor, Nasser, Levrone, Aaron Baker, Cormier, Clairmonte, etc
It is always hard if your father turns gay and then leaves you and your mother.
Lee went on to still have a successful life, however he would have residual scars that has lead to his rebellious nature and stupid tattoos.
When people ask pros what they take, it’s like when a Muslim asks where does Jesus say he’s god in the Bible, then when you show them, they don’t believe you still.
@@tshatos6442 great analogy

@@vivificateurveridique1420 Lee’s condition wasn’t up to par in some contests, yes, but how can you say he wasn’t an amazing bodybuilder. What shows were you watching? Get your head examined.
