   Any dude who competes in this 'sport' in which the ultimate goal is to build the body beautiful must himself have been turned on by the prospect of possessing the physique and strength so powerful as to gain the respect and adoration of others!

   I completely agree with Elcsum. Plus I find the "exhibitionist" side of any competitive bodybuilder's personality a TOTAL turn-on!!!

   Barneysman, here's what Arnold says it was like to stand and pose in front of his fans:

   The unique thing about bodybuilding is that when I compete, it is just me on a stage alone. There is no field, no bat, no ball, no skis, no skates. All other athletes have to use equipment, like a football. As soon as the football if thrown, where does the eye go? To the football. But I don’t use anything in competition except myself. It’s just me up there. Me alone. No coach. No nothing.”
   It is as satisfying to me as coming is - you know, as having sex with a woman and coming. So can you believe how much I am in heaven? I am, like, getting the feeling of coming in the gym. I'm getting the feeling of coming at home. I'm getting the feeling of coming backstage when I pump up.When I pose out in front of 5.000 people I get the same feeling. So I'm coming day and night. great huh?

   I've completed 4x in BB competitions. I had trainers, training partners, lifted heavy, and built a naturally good physique into competitive muscle. I am 5'10 and 200 now, and would compete at light heavy. At first, I was feeling uneasy about an on stage performance. Being gay, and surrounded by muscle back stage was a challenge. I knew that I would start to "chub" if I starred or fixated on any other tanned boy pumping muscle backstage. It was very difficult, so I concentrated on my own routine and pump almost starring straight ahead or focusing on the wall. When time to go on stage for the line up or individual routines, we would stand in order behind the stage side drapes, waiting what seemed forever to show the routine and flexed muscle. On stage, the auditorium howled, clapped and whistled with each turn and new pose. Is it like cumming? No, Arnold is wrong. There's no substitute for throbbing and shooting cum with another muscled man. I'm on bigmuscle.com as kobeypdx, so take a look.

   I saw you on bigmuscle, Kobey. I liked your picture with your partner in particular, but all in all you are also a handsome man. And your self-description reminds me that of an aesthete.

   Thanks for the inside info I was seeking Kobey. I agree with you about what Arnie said - I think he was either talking nonsense or showing off. There's no substitute for being in cum soaked bliss with your man! I looked you up on bigmuscle.I envy you your stats - 49" chest and 30" waist. Nice shape man!
   Good to hear from Urbano again and from all the guys.

   Kobeypdx, thanks for offering another perspective. I found it a real insight. I always wondered, how would one cope as a gay man competing at a competition, who can get aroused easily at the sight of muscle. But you handled it well. However, there are quite a few "straight" bodybuilders who sport a boner on stage and it doesn't bother them in the slightest, some even ooze pre-cum and the stain is visible. (I find it even hotter to view).

   I saw your pics, and I'm impressed, you've packed on some noteworthy beef, respect to you there too. I find the whole muscle scene and the embrace of hitherto unmentioned homo-eroticism refreshing and appealing, which your view provided a glimpse of.

   Thank you to Elcsum also, it takes courage to compete and show your courage and it is appreciated.

   Great contributions to this debate fellas! Bodybuilding is an exhibitionist endeavor even if there is no intention to compete. I for one made many an attempt to greatly improve my physique but regretfully lacked the discipline to commit to really serious gym work. My goal was not to compete but to ultimately 'rise above the average' and impress friends and family with a build that would make me stand out in a crowd whether I was in formal or casual gear. From my early efforts at the gym I recall and still feel, the tremendous sense of well being and power a good workout gave me. Then, still hugely pumped, soaping myself in the shower and donning some really tight shirts and shorts was a major turn on. I would strut from the gym as if I was as big and buffed as the best of the other dudes I had admired, their rippling arm muscles stretching the sleeves of their tee shirts. The mirror was no friend of mine, but the feeling of say, my shirts tightening over my pecs and biceps was the closest I would get to achieving my goal. That's why as much as I enjoy the sight of bodybuilders competing practically naked, I think that if I had reached that level of development I would enjoy most, the feeling of my muscles constantly stretching and straining against my clothes.

    I put in 10 years (in my 40s) at Gold's gym and was surprised at how much muscle I put on. Side benefits included fabulous blood pressure, great heart health, and stress reduction. So I am glad I put in that effort. Then things got crazy and I stopped going except sporadically at a local gym. A surprising (?) benefit came up in the name of "horniness" after a workout. That was one thing to look forward to and, believe me, I took advantage of it. And I have always been one to ogle the bodybuilding mags with their ultra-handsome and muscled guys. But I have always wondered what it was like for them the first time they took to the stage in those very brief posing trunks. That would give me a little stage fright at first, showing my private anatomy for all to see. But if others can do it, I suppose I could have........not that I ever got into that great shape physique-wise. Does anyone know if it is at all common for a gay or straight guy up on that stage to connect to another gay or straight guy afterward for sex? I have often wondered (and fantasized) about that.

    Hey ManOMan! Did you read David Michael Roberts latest story "Jerry after the Competition"? Your post seems to have set him going. He mentions you in the invitation to respond, although the E address is actually dmrob@hotmail.co.uk.
    I have the same questions in my mind about what it would be like to have a superb physique and present it to adoring fans in posers that seem to be getting briefer and briefer every year.Very sexy for competitor and spectator alike!

    Hi, Barneysman! I read David Michael Roberts story and was surprised to see a reference to me at the end! His story was very stimulating (if you know what I mean) to say the least. I really liked the pickup of his friend after the show and the anticipatory foreplay to follow. Reading about these two men enjoying each other, getting turned on by each other, and participating in mutually-gratifying sex tugged at me somewhere deep in my mind. Men loving men is what it's all about. And men are not the unfeeling creatures some people portray them to be. Bravo to Mr. Roberts! I did send him a thank-you email when I read it.
