Nice quick competition. McGrath, resting at the bottom is a bad strategy.

In general, when you pause, you're pretty much done. You just gotta keep on going as long as you can. Nice competition.

McGrath went from promising Pro to this, doing bench press contest in the AC expo, after his tricep injury and his poor placings, I'm surprised Universal hasn't dumped him like BSN did with the "phenom" Brewer, and soon the "prodigy" Curry

Mcgrath looks sick in the animal ads, and he's still pretty popular in the bodybuilding community. It's not like he fails every time like brewer he had some serious injuries.

and the majority of people that buy supplements don't even follow BB scene, and to those McGrath looks like a ****ing badass they wanna be.


we're taloking about ads... it's all about mirror neurons in this industry. this is the epitome of mirror neurons now that I think about it. Nothing better to describe their function.

Well actually you're right, most people who goes to the gym just to train, are lazy and believe supplements=results, but I do believe too much people are convinced that a highly famous supplements brands, with Pro BBers testimonials means products that works and are the s.h.it, I've used many brands of supplements and many of them were not much famous or famous at all and taste and solubility levels not to mention quality were kinda great. I mean paying normal creatin mono 2-3 times the real prize cause on the box there's a Pro and it's called hardcore or ultimate superfaboulus creatine is dumb.
