Interesting video was not aware of Decola but he certainly looked good. I noticed Chuck Sipes was mentioned he was an old school superman who had a strong natural stance and had a sad end to his life.
Yeah right..of course he never took steds…is that right after he said that the moon's made of cheese👎👎
you are good you become the main source for truly bodybuilding…thanks for the video……
Great video nick 😉 But you have to mention this dude has great genetics. Just look at the photo where he is standing next to arnold, at this time arnold already took roids and he looks almost the same! Great chest arms small waist this guy is cool!
John Decola respect for a real bodybuilder.
reminds me of Franco the 1st pic.
Get an interview with him
Can you make a video about if Damen Griffith could compete in bodybuilding events
A very interesting video Nick. I woud kindly sugest another big name Bob Gallucci.There is an iteresting book "The Last Drug Free Bodybuilder" link below. Take a look on page 136. https://books.google.al/books?id=ZuM5AwAAQBAJ&pg=PA92&lpg=PA92&dq=john+decola+training&source=bl&ots=l3zPX-Jaq_&sig=f5LG5ePx-E7R5u01RIWdzliwj0w&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiYwvnI2vnUAhUDOxQKHf0cDUkQ6AEILTAC
Can you do a top 3 Ruby predictions video?
2:37 impressive lateral head on the front groin extensor
60s women had better physiques too
it is obvius that he was also taking steroids,steroids were in use from the 50's.
I belive you can be a heavy weight bodybuilder 225 lbs and above if you keep your waist size checked,and they have higher body fat around 12-15% i belive.And that percentages are healthy and truly anabolic.Nor cadaver body fat percentages.
YEAH YEAH, AND I GOTTA BRIDGE TO SELL TO YA´!
He certainly had a very large package 🙂
John still works out at Hagerstown golds gym. His arms are still huge. I see him daily. Great inspiration as to what staying in shape can do for your life.
John DeCola should have placed much higher than he did at the 1964 Mr. America Contest. Same for Sergio Oliva who also entered this contest; who actually shown have won! Unfortunately, Bob Hoffman had a hand in the decision making process. Harold Poole suffered from the same faith and even lost the Teenage Mr. Contest to Jerry Daniels!!!????
John was my fathers friend. My dad worked for John at the Apollo Diana health club in Hagerstown, Md. in the 1970s when I was just born. He is a really humble man with a great sense of humor.
hes still alive that means something bodybuilders are dropping dead at 33
hey nick can you do a video on body builder jose guzman he was a great friend and my training partner please thanks nick.
he's a great guy… I see him every year at the AOBS Banquet… He still has great arms
I was the promoter of one of the Master Shows that John won. I'll try to find some pics.
Truly appreciate the video. Nice to know some more legends
He looked great.
He works out at the gym in Maryland speak with him all the time. So nice and pleasant
Mr. John Decola, a humble man with a good heart. Friendly and easy to talk to. I don't think this man would step on anyone's toes to get ahead. After several casual conversations with him, I can tell, this is a man who would feel dishonorable if he competed unclean. Today, literally today, he still works out, and works out very sensibly for his age. He is still in good shape . I asked him about aging and testosterone therapy, and as a matter of fact he recently got his levels checked, and his levels are normal, won't be needing the stuff. Goes to show that working out on a regular basis and doing it naturally is the way to go if you want your health to go far. The man is an Angel. Pleasure to have met him, The Honorable Mr. John Decola.
Proud to call Him My Uncle!!
