Mass Secrets

Q. Greg, a little over a decade ago, you were arguably the biggest and most popular bodybuilder on the planet. I remember vividly the massive lineups just to take a picture with you. Can you tell us some of your fondest memories of being on the bodybuilding circuit?

A. Some of my fondest memories are the interactions I had with my fans at various events and even when I would be out somewhere and people would recognize me and approach me. I made some close relationships with a few fans that went out of their way to help me when I was doing tours in various countries. Also, when I began doing appearances with pros I had only a few years earlier looked up to and they would actually know who I was. I had the pleasure to spend a lot of time with various legends during these events, eating, travelling, and training with them. Ronnie, Dorian, Vince Taylor—the list goes on, and I made some good friendships along the way.
