OG Craig Monson Had The Prison Guards Shook

[NatiboyB]

Him and Tookie did.

Spoiler

Pause

they were whole damn body builders and ex athletes not all of them were swole but it was more common...

Aye this nikka was doing tricep lockouts with 3 fukking plates Jesus Christ

 

[Double Burger With Cheese]

Brehs couldn't survive in the LA streets if they wasn't lifting weights.


It was about fighting back then.




Pause

I mean both y’all probably right. I’m sure more brehs were working out and getting swole back then, but I’m also sure the average dude wasn’t walking around the streets looking penitentiary swole though. That’s not a normal level of swoleness

 

[duncanthetall]

Lol them nikkas were monsters

I don’t even think it’s just an LA thing a lot of the Gs I knew or saw around were in some type of shape or extra fat either way they weren’t small and petite if you will.

 

[SheWantTheD]

These nikkas now would've gotten eaten alive back then.

Skinny jeans wouldn't exist if nikkas got in-shape

How? Just skip leg day

Naw, I'm only talking about the gangsters back then.

The OGs talked about this in these videos.

Naw I feel you. That wasn’t my era back then but from pictures and shyt it definitely sees like brehs were more in shape and had more weight. I was actually on the block talking to my homeboy the other day like look at all these lil nikkas; they all small as fukk and frail as hell. They have to shoot. They too small to be thumping lol

 

[JP_614]

He was dropping some gems in this interview about steroids and over lifting legs and how it effects you as you get older.

yeah but that’s what I don’t understand so if you are in the streets you eventually will end up having to fade or in the joint catching a fade. So I would think nothing would have changed.

It was different back than cats like my pops and uncles stayed lifting weights getting swole and boxing. I guess the reason you don’t see that now is because people are on drugs and they would rather use guns.

I’m not from Cali like them though but I know cats used to workout all day at the crib in the yard and if they went to jail worked out even more. Even in the chi back when I was younger they were bigger...

I was surprised when Big U said a lot of Rollin 60's took martial arts classes.

Big U said that he's a blackbelt.

All them oldschool cali gangsters were big af & didnt mind rolling from the shoulders

Now the streets fulla skinny-fat lean/pill addicts

You mean crystal addicts

 

[50CentStan]

They had discipline. Which is very hard to come by now. Nobody gets that kind of physique without discipline.
