0:13.9 | Thank you for being here. |
0:14.6 | I am, Bepp Bacolski, the host of muscle intelligence. |
0:17.2 | If you don't know I am, I was professional bodybuilder for a long time. |
0:20.5 | Started off with what I would say is negative muscle at about 16, 15, 16 years old. |
0:26.9 | I was about 155 pounds, certainly not very lean. Same height, 510, 511 maybe. And I remember celebrating |
