Seems about as down to earth as any "Day in the life" series IMO.

I watched Phil's day in the life video and he basically was autographing DVD's all day, arguing with his wife, and getting a mani pedi... I would rather watch a day that I can relate too.... Cooking, working out, Food prep, the REAL things instead of a bunch of fluff (think Phil spraying his rims for a shiny appearance when at the gas station) that your average, normal bodybuilder wouldnt have/do.

Why not show the truth about Kai and actually go into how became a pro. Lets see:

Kai refused to get a real job to chase some bodybuilding dream.
He didn't go to school to properly educate himself or make something of himself.
He LIVED off the government or had government assistance for many years because of his general laziness outside of bodybuilding.
He performed G4P, stripping routines, and had sex with fruit to pay for his illegal drugs.
He abuses massive doses of illegal anabolics to get where he is.
Genetics is everything.. I guarantee there are a thousand guys who work just as hard as Kai but will never look like him
Because of his lack of intelligence, he was taken advantage of by Oscar and gave his drug dealer/trainer half of everything he made. Despite his use of large words, that to me makes him a complete idiot.

Please, if none of this is the truth, please correct me Mike

I have 1000x more respect for Phil... College educated, didn't do G4P, worked a real job before bodybuilding, has some business sense when it comes to bodybuilding.

Now I am just waiting for some Kai schmoe to run in and save the day and say KAI GREW UP IN A BAD HOME AND HE HAD TO HAVE SEX WITH FRUIT TO PAY FOR HIS GH.. where are the people running to defend crack whores

What real job did Phil have? Front desk at the gym?

Front desk? He was a manager. What's your definition of a real job?

Probably a question best directed at Matt since he is the one who commented on it in the first place.

kai and mike just redefined the term "hardcore".
love the calling out of MTV cribs style and meat head training videos.

thank you mike for bringing this to us.

I've been wanting to make this point for several years now.

Don't you think this is closer to reality that the usual BB vid?

No video is reality. Everything you see is edited by someone or other with a viewpoint.

What reality?? Most people have to work for a living, not dick around all day, "living the dream". At least Phil and Jay are developing other revenue streams and performing regular business tasks on a day to day basis. You live from extremely naive viewpoint, well you probably don't but you only show what you want or think is "ok".

Your comparing people who are flashy to someone who is humble. Just cause he doesnt broadcast it, doesnt mean stuff isnt happening. You really think Kai is just sitting there "living the dream"? You dont think he has different revenue streams other than his MuscleMeds contract or guest posing? You think he would STILL be able to live off of government assistance after Winning even a single ASC?

It actually sounds like YOU have a very naive viewpoint, some might even argue delusional. Im guessing you have never seen or hung out with Kai in the same fashion as Mike, and thus have NOTHING to base your ideas off of. I heard somewhere he owns an apartment building. Does this not constitute a revenue stream? In regards to the editing, Im sure mike is only showing things that are relevant in his videos... Aka signing DVD's isnt what made the bodybuilder the bodybuilder.

Why does he still have a GOVERNMENT sponsored apartment???

Again read my posts where I listed everything.. is any of this NOT true??? Why would anyone want to look up to that???? You are saying "you heard" he owns an apartment complex, Mike.. is this true?

Again like I said.. I will NEVER have respect for a government leach, who has sex with grapefruits, to buy illegal drugs. Hey, if you work for a living and want to buy illegal things.. GREAT FOR YOU, but when the taxpayers are or were supplementing your lifestyle during this time, it is fucking bullshit. I worked throughout my undergrad and grad school, both of which I paid for or am paying for with loans. I competed every fucking year during this time, working and going to school full-time. Sorry I have absolutely no respect for some lowlife who decides to be a stripper and fuck a grapefruit, while collecting a check from the govt and living in subsidized housing.

You're right, signing DVDs isn't what made Kai. What helped him was being a stripper, doing G4P, receiving benefits from the government, taking high dose of anabolics, and have great genetics. ALL OF THOSE ARE NEGLECTED IN THE VIDEO.

How do you know that is even a government sponsored apartment? Have you seen his tax documents that are disclosing his financial living situation?

So you're implying that just because Phil & Jay have nice houses & nice cars that they're somehow not humble? You don't have to live below your means just to be humble.
