Thanks Mak..... like i say bro, its all i know and it is what keeps me totally happy so it has become second nature just to train all the time, showing is enjoyable but its the hard training i love best Smile

Man, that was the era that got me interested in weight lifting. (I was pretty young then) I remember looking through my dad's BB mags and thinking "I wanna look like that some day." He got me started lifting when I was about 11. He was a really big dude, more of a power lifter though. I am the only one that did not inherit the family genetics. LOL. Really nice pic!! Thanks for the trip down memory lane. I really miss those early days with my dad.

A bit patrick swayze dont you think lmfao....... i used to have it streaked back then and a stud in the lug hole to match whatever trunks i had on hahahaaaa....... Martial arts and gymnastics before i went full tilt bodybuilder... i think that created a good base to build from bro.... Suze was a gymnast too, i think thats why she is so balanced too.

Oh yeah!!!!

Booooooooooom!!!!!!!....................... Smile

VIKING EVOLUTION's picture

Thanks MrK.......... we were more aesthetics orientated than pure mass monster back then and i liked it better, but i had to evolve slightly under pressure to be honest when the mass monster era kicked off.... i did it but didnt like the look of my physique as much as i did when i was Zane orientated..... shame it changed but thats life i suppose bro Smile

rolltide3's picture

Hmm 32 years ago ..... didn't think Dennis wolf was that old lol. Vike u are an inspiration for so many and just your presence makes eriods boom

VIKING EVOLUTION's picture

Long time aint it bro...... i got the feeling close friends like you like having around but i would like to think some of the youngsters do too........... just maybe would make me happy.

Gymjunkie01's picture

impressive... but the fact you did it with only sust the greatest AAS to this day is something else.. knowing your body that well and the knowledge of nutrition back then just makes me think how little I really know +2

VIKING EVOLUTION's picture

Thats no lie bro.. that body up top was prepped with Sustanon ONLY...... i swear on my sons life bro.

I wasnt really that hot on nutrition then, my knowledge came later, but we must have done something right! so i kept doing it and the trophies kept rolling in lol.... as time progressed i was forced to get sharper with the nutrition to keep going to war with bigger and better opponents........ and the rest is history...... loads of proper national and international competitions with 3 major title wins under my belt .

bolt781's picture

A lifelong battle tested commitment right there. No short cuts! That's proof the hard way is the best way!

VIKING EVOLUTION's picture

Hard way is the only way for me bro......... nothing ever given! i have to work for everything..... and i wouldnt have it any other way bro, graft has made me what i am and i have loved every second of it!.. blood,sweat and tears........ the fkn whole lot Smile

cd1's picture

Boom !!
Viking looks wicked and in fact I had to do a double take as I did think it was a young Dorian Yates
Plus one fella

VIKING EVOLUTION's picture

Hey bro .... probably the hair........ Dorian was the man back in "83"

VIKING EVOLUTION's picture

Cheers brother.... you know me very well, and know i wouldnt wear this tag if i hadnt put my time in and grafted to hit my goals....... lots of history and lots of future history to come hopefully with guys like you at my side Smile

Darkhorse777's picture

Thanks bro..... you know now why i get fiery when i read certain threads with mega stacks and the kid is kicking off because we say something he dont want to hear........ aint no short cuts when it comes nutrition and thats that!!

tonytulo's picture

Now that's more like it. Enough with the bicep pics lmfao look great there old man.

VIKING EVOLUTION's picture

LOL.......... you came to mind when i found this pic..... younger than you there man, you see the ear stud? lmfao......... wtf its nice being old because i dont look like a young twat anymore hahahaaaaaa

tonytulo's picture

Age is nothing but a number brother. I see the ear stud lol nice touch. Good execution on the back double. Has a Dorian Yates touch to it.

VIKING EVOLUTION's picture

Thanks..... well he was my friend then so it wise to copy him because people recognised the poses and understood what you were trying to put across to the audience.... big slow poses with a split second pause on full tension.... yeah thats a workout in itself and i used to cramp up real bad until i learnt to breath through my lungs instead of the diaphragm.

Leaning back slightly on a BDB helps show more beef.

zeb0312's picture

Yep there you have it good ole basic gear and hard ass training and eating. Nice bro

VIKING EVOLUTION's picture

Yep.......... thats all we had bro........... seriously i was lucky to get two 10wk cycles per year because the gear was SO FKN hard to get hold of........... green 23G pins...... FUCK THAT!! lolol

I would rather train than pin........... pinning was a sore affair then with them harpoons

zeb0312's picture

Oh yea and good ole thai pinkies and up johns I remember them good days seems like all the gear we got a hold of was more legit to than now of days it has grown so huge bro it's crazy, supply and demand brother.

Oh yea........... BEAST MODE..........

VIKING EVOLUTION's picture

yea we used to talk openly in a pub about being on the gear..... nobody had a clue what we meant because steroids were so underground it simply wasnt common knowledge

strongman6969's picture

Damn incredible bro. What was your style of lifting back then?

VIKING EVOLUTION's picture

Heavy everything, pyramid sets all the way of season, prepping would be mega high reps with a lot of tonnage shifted......... no cardio, never done it, never had to bro....... simply graft, graft then a double dose of graft till i fell down and puked shaking from the onslaught.

jimmycrackcorn's picture

Now u know u were too young to run gear! Eroids does NOT approve! ;)
