Bill Phillips Ruined my life
After seeing BLP's post to shawn Ray I was inspired to write a letter to my
former idol. Bill phillips.
Dear Mr. Phillips,
I'm sure you probably don't remember me (see photo's). I competed in your first Body for Life challenge. Bill, I'm writing you this letter to finally get some closure after all these years.
You see Bill, you were my idol and all I ever wanted to be was an EAS spokesperson. You convinced me that even a lazy, fat fuck like me had a shot at winning. I gave my heart and soul to that contest for 90 days.
I did just what you told me. I visualized myself driving that Lambo down South beach pulling hot bitches. I chanted my mantra's. I lived, ate and breathed EAS.
So what did I get for all my efforts? Well, certainly not the Lamborghini or the spokesperson contract. I didn't even get the free T-shirt you promised me. Oh sure, you offered to sell me one of those bad ass leather EAS bomber jackets.
But after you finger fucked my wallet for all those supplements I had to buy, how could I afford it.
All I got for my efforts was a massive credit card bill. And who knows what long- term effects taking all that shit will have on my health. To this day every time I pass gas, I swear it smells like Phosphagen.
I just want to know why Bill? why didn't I place top ten? Did you not think I was natural? Was it the bad hair piece in the after photo? All these years I keep asking myself Why?
In closing, I just want you to know Bill, I was much happier fat, hairy and pale with a little cash in my pocket.

LOL
Bill Phillips changed my life. Body For Life taught me the basics principles of good nutrition and working out. I didn't win an EAS contract but the prize I did receive was the gift of a healthy body and lifestyle. I wouldn't change that for all the leather EAS jackets in the world.You guys with the huge sponsor ads in your signatures make reading the forums annoying.

Good read and great transformation. We have to give credit to Bill and EAS for initiating the onslaught of transformation challenges. Very innovative. I had a flurry of business as a trainer back in 97-98 for people who wanted to train for that "contest." I believe the average "competitor" was spending $500 a month on supps.

If that's the body he got from Bill's training, nutrition, and supplement protocols, then I would think most would be happy with it. I don't think he said he's turn someone into Mr. Olympia. And he could very well compete in the new men's physique division with that look.

Exactly, thats supposed to be the reward which is more important then anything he mentioned. I dont get what he is upset aboutlol You wanted to get in shape and you did. You were happier fat? You didnt make this a lifestyle which is about setting personal goals, enjoying the challanges/changes ,being healthy and looking/feeling great. Theres no better reward then that!

Bill was very smart at making money.
Maybe some of the older guys might remember about Bill in the 80's? He was a major supplier back in the day and heavily involved in US distribution of gear. According to some of his "partners" Bill had this great idea of upping the profits on gear sales. Get your own containers and label makers, add oil and tabs with no anabolic steroids in them, and sell them!! This was pretty much the start of the "BUNK GEAR" era. Remember there was no internet so there was no bad feedback, just word of mouth. All the guys that competed in the 80's and into the 90's probably remember all the bogus Dbol, anavar and other shit we had to sort through. In the 80's I got a doctor script for Test and Dbol which opened my eyes to real gear. Later on it is speculated that he realized he could use his skills to sell supplements........and the rest is history.
