    Who is ALBOB?

    Big Smoothy created a thread and I believe it's a great idea. When Robert proposed that I be named a mod my response was that there are a ton of users here who have thousands of posts. Just one of those users is IronMagazine's ALBOB, resident (and self-proclaimed) "IDIOT SAVANT" and possessor of 10,675 posts at this moment!

    And so I respect the poster, ALBOB.

    I've read many of his posts on this board.

    Yes, he has knowledge and strength:

    He doubles me on leg press and db bench presses. See for yourself!

    ALBOB's Andro Adventure

    Good on you, ALBOB.

    Question:

    Who are you?

    What do you do?

    What brought you to IronMagazine Bodybuilding Forums? And perhaps more importantly, what makes you stay?

    If I may ask. Inquiring minds, want to know.

    Note: Reveal as much or as little as you'd like. My intent is just to learn more about the members of IM without entering into the Stalker Realm.

    A sincere tip of the hat to Big Smoothy for initiating this train of thought. I truly hope it catches on. Who would you like to know more about?

    he runs a semi-successful washer and dryer rental business in Canada.

    and he has 2 first names, and was named after his two also semi-successful business owning uncles...A Chicago shoe salesman Al Bundy, and a Scranton PA entrepreneur Bob Vance of Vance Refrigeration

    Who is Albob?......


    Charles AlBob, born AlBobo Siciliano (October 30, 1892,[1] Acri, Italy – December 23, 1972, Long Beach, New York[2]), was the developer of a bodybuilding method and its associated exercise program that was best known for a landmark advertising campaign featuring AlBob's name and likeness; it has been described as one of the longest-lasting and most memorable ad campaigns of all time.[3]

    According to AlBob, he trained himself to develop his body from that of a "scrawny weakling", eventually becoming the most popular muscleman of his day. He took the name "Charles AlBob" after a friend told him he resembled the statue of Al's Beer and Organic Brewery on top of a hotel in Coney Island[2] and legally changed his name in 1922. His company, Charles AlBob Ltd., was founded in 1929 and, as of 2009, continues to market a fitness program for the "97-pound weakling." The company is now owned by Jeffrey C. Hogue.

    Albob seen here giving one of his earlier interviews.



    Training partner and long time friend Triplethreat was also approached by reporters.



    Upon his arrival from his latest trip to Mexico, gym aquaintence DOMS said a few words.

    I have luckily or unluckily met ALBOB in real life. I must say that that first pic DM posted really resembles him.
    Other than that, he's a great guy and friend, but he's still gay.

    That's explains why he's been asking me for my "before" pictures for the past six years....

    I'd tell you that might stunt your growth but, I'm obviously too late.

    (On a side note, since you've obviously got Built's attention, could you tell her wax isn't just for bikini models anymore? )

    I find velco easier than shoelaces when you have thimble sized fingers.
