We are NOT BUILT to sit behind desks “both figuratively and literally” and when humans stop using their physical might the cellular regeneration declines prematurely imo...

I do not know to what extent one could attribute the way he is to the steroid extras he may or may not be on..... If he is using steroids than he is in remarkably good condition for his age so i personnally attribute his strengh and build to exceptional genetics , a lifetime of passion and dedication for lifting and eating smart....

  • Around 1991 there was a Yukon Jack tourny in Chicago. I had a buddy around 140 #s or so that could beat anyone in our small town so we took a trip to try his luck... We walk in and the first guy I saw was Rich, he stuck out not only because of his size but also because he was the only contestant not wearing the yellow and black shirt. They didn't have one that would fit him. He also had on black and white body building sweats. His first match almost got me beat up. At the start of the match he just stared at the other guy, a huge foreign guy I think it was, than proceded to slam him in about a tenth of a second, never taking his eyes off of him. As the guy walked dejectedly back to his table I was almost laying on the floor laughing. That's my memory of Richard Lupkes. Webster's dictionary should have a picture of him under the word Beast. Oh yeah, my buddy got slammed twice in a row and left very humbled.
