Biography

Eddie Robinson is considered a model for any bodybuilder, a kind of " good boy " in the world of big sport. He was incredibly lucky: as soon as Eddie first appeared in the US amateur championship, he immediately won first place. The beginning of his professional career can be considered a performance on the podium "Niagara Falls" in 1990, where he won again.

Body-building

Robinson began his career as a powerlifter, even became the world record holder, squeezed 276 kg in the supine position, taking into account his own weight of 100 kg. But outwardly, Eddie was not much like a powerlifter, he rather had all the data to become an excellent bodybuilder. Learning the various concepts of training in sports magazines, he began to work hard to create his perfect body. Thus, in 1986 he expected the first victory, earned by hard work at the Junior Nationals championship. The top podium of the Niagara Falls professional competition opened Robinson's path to Mr. Olympia, the most prestigious tournament for bodybuilders. At his first Olympia, Eddie took 10th place, but for a beginner it was just a phenomenal result, especially considering the factor that Robinson played honestly, without using anabolics and steroids. Considering that any victory should be crystal clear, Robinson moved to the World Bodybuilding Federation, where rigorous testing for all types of steroids was conducted. Four years later, he returned under the wing of the IFBB thanks to his friendship with the president of the organization, Joe Wider.

Eddie Robinson has always been an ardent opponent of the use of so-called " restorative " drugs and other " chemistry ". Although lately he has quieted down and no longer speaks so zealously on this subject. This is due to a series of disqualifications due to the illegal use of these same substances.

Now his sports career has frozen in one place, every year Eddie is finding it increasingly difficult to compete with new stars in the world of bodybuilding. But the “good boy” does not give up and still hopes to climb the podium of the best competitions in the world, knowing that his star is still shining in the sky of victory.

Eddie's interests are not limited to the world of sports. For the past five years, he has been known as a wonderful master of cosmetic surgery. He has particularly good tattoos on his chest. Whatever you say, a truly talented person, talented in everything!
