    they were in the general media and you saw them before you saw a muscle bound super hero? or they just effected you the most, seeing a picture of kevin levrone was the first time that i thought "i wanna look like these people in the magazines"

    I remember watching this episode of the Beverly Hillbillies when I was a kid. I wanted to look like that when I grew up.

    Loved Hulk comics and Colossus as I kid (also Big Louie and Arnie), too hyper to stick with weights. Then my own fat ass was my inspiration to get into shape.

    Now I use 'Ronnie/Dorianisms' on my training buddy...he is getting the swing of it and joining in on the fun. THAT get me inspired.

    That's a cool video Ukwildcat. I haven't seen it before.
    For me the biggest influence was Big Lou. I imagine for a lot of little kids, during the time the Hulk was playing on TV, he was larger than life.
