As stated in the post I wasn't expecting a response so it's great to hear at least one person enjoyed reading it. And I LOVED reading about your memories of viewing muscle on TV growing up. I have my own similar (and very fond) pre-Internet memories of viewing muscle on TV and actually used to have a VHS tape I’d record anything muscle related on (I probably still have it somewhere)! For me one of the best shows for muscle was actually a really cheesy American chat show on Sky One called Jenny Jones - for some reason she regularly featured bodybuilders/muscle guys/wrestlers (I read on the Internet somewhere that she actually had a bit of a thing for bodybuilders). But that character on “The Club” sounds like the kind of thing I would have recorded on to my muscle video (hehe) - I did a quick search but couldn’t find anything (will have to have another look)! I’ve said this before to a muscle mate who is around my age - I often envy today’s teenagers who have access to so much muscle on their phones/tablets etc. They can just go on YouTube and there’s a whole world of muscle just sitting there. No embarrassing trips to WH Smith to awkwardly buy magazines with bodybuilders on the front cover! But equally I’m also glad I grew up when I did with little access to muscle because it made me appreciate it so much more (even when we finally got the Internet it was dial-up, YouTube wasn’t yet founded and watching videos wasn’t a common thing so it was really just images - though that alone was incredible). Thank you again for the brilliant comment Anonymous and the trip down muscle memory lane! And (again) I really did love reading about your own memories! Here’s to our equal, how did you so brilliantly put it...”lifelong, wonderful (it really fucking IS!) and horny muscle obsession”! ;)muscleaddicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13734151732695498345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8050413444095079705.post-2033431271385304232016-12-29T07:16:41.785+00:002016-12-29T07:16:41.785+00:00An unusual concept MA.

Unfortunately I can't comment on any of these TV productions except Happy Valley, which was brilliant. It's obvious from your punchy journalistic style of writing and inclusion of the vernacular,that media/script writing etc interests you greaty. In the new year, I'll try to catch up with some on your reccomendations. Off the subject slightly...Your post got me thinking about muscle and bodybuilding on TV in my formative years. This was a very different world to what it is now. No internet, youtube, mobiles n for me growing up in the 70s not even video for another decade! Funny how even pre-puberty there are signs of sexual disposition, n what we'll be attracted to in later life. Obviously for me, virile men was my focus of attention so 'fraid to say there wasn't that much eye candy about except the occasional glimpse of StarTrek's Captain Kirk, sexy cowboys on 'The High Chaperal' and on saturday morning TV, the loined clothed Tarzan! That was about it! It got slightly better in the early 80s and by then i'd discovered the amazing world of bodybuilding . Like most lads of that age I would be tugging my pud whenever I got the opportunity, but my growing collection of muscle mags had to be my main source of wank fodder. TV wise, bodybuilding was in the desert with few exceptions. Lou ferrigno's incredible hulk for one. I do remember staying awake late and watching a screening of 'Pumping Iron'. By then we had a portable tv so I was able to watch it in the privacy of my bedroom. Fuck! It's no exaggeration to say what an incredibly memorable personal experience that was..seeing such sexy musclemen flexing their astounding physiques. I was so turned on, permanently hard and orgasming time and again. Even writing about it is exciting me and that was nearly 40years ago! Another programme which I vaguely remember but have been unable to find anything online about it. I think it was called 'The Club'. Maybe a pilot soap on ITV and was probably a wannabe rival to BBC 's 'Triangle'. It didnt last long. It was set in a gym but mainly the reception n back office. It was really hammy n I can see why it was axed. It's only saving grace was a sexy muscleman..a personal trainer. In my memory, he was gorgeous and huge (probably neither in reality). It was so hot and intense to see a real bodybuilder on TV. One episode involved steroids but the abiding one was the last episode when he won a contest. Fuck, I was so horned, watching a bodybuilding contest on TV..beating one off just as my mum was calling me down for dinner! "Coming Mum"! I gasped, and I certainly was! Lol! I would love to find out about this programme if anyone can help. Anyway MA. I'll end there. Thank fuck for the internet and abundant access to muscle..my lifelong, wonderful, horny,(and as you would say) 'fuckity fuck fuck' muscle obsession!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
