    I know who Aziz is, but why do you label him the most inspiring person to ever walk the earth? There are tons of inspiring bodybuilders/people out there.

    He was funny, charismatic and had a great physique but I'm not sure a guy into steroid abuse and who used recreational drugs regularly is particularly inspiring.

    He had a great rig, but with lots of pharmaceutical assistance. Aside from his dedication to bodybuilding, I'm not sure what won him so much admiration. He seemed very immature and self-centered from what I saw of him.

    OP seems to have alot in common with him (not to say OP is immature and self-centered, I obviously dont know him)....young, was overweight, started lifting to impress/ be able to talk to girls. Not necessarily a bad role model for him to have, as long as he stays away from the steroids and other drugs that zyzz was fond of

    Zyzz came from being a skinny little thing. There are worse role models, and he has in his own way inspired a lot of younger people to take up fitness as a part of their lives. The drug abuse is a major negative, though.
  • How he inspired the world is he taught of a better lifestyle of being shredded and don't let any haters bring you down. So what if he did or didn't do drugs? what he taught us was to be ourselves.
  • Nice.

    that statement in itself is a bit contradictory. A better lifestyle should not include illegal drug use.

    Not trying to ruin it for you, and like I said there are alot worse role models to have, and he could be a good one as long as you stay away from the drug use

    More than a bit contradictory...how is 'being yourself' pumping steroids to get big? That's not being yourself in my books.

    Was just thinking the exact same thing. Its just like a fake chick pumping plastic into her face and chest and saying that she loves herself the way she is and doesn't care what anyone thinks..
