Why Frank Zane Regrets Bulking Up for Contests 😟 #shorts

[0:00]In my career I bulked up three times and each time it was a big mistake. No, I mean you think the first time was I was teaching school in New Jersey and I bulked up to 220. 38 inch waist and 28 inch thighs and squatting 20 reps with 325. And then I moved to Florida and I came down to 190 and I looked real good. The next time for the 72 universe, again bulked up, I was like 208. Took photos and I saw how bad I looked. It was only five weeks before the Mr. Universe. And I went to emergency training mode. I had a lower back injury too. And I got in great shape and won the contest but it was like panic work the last five weeks. And then after that, 1982. I mean you think I didn't learn my lesson already because I wanted to go into Olympia weighing 200. Joe Weiders Frank, oh got a little bigger, hey. And you know, I ruined my lines. I ended up getting second but I could have wanted if I just would have went in there my normal self.
