Body building: one minute of glory
One minute of glory That’s what it's all about.
That's why these guys spend hour after hour in the
gym, fine-tuning their bodies all the while giving up
chocolate cake and Twinkies . ■ {
"That’s what you train for. the one minute of
glory that you get.” says Cary Woodte. a University
senior in history. "It’s not like football or basketball
where you always get to play and always get to be
seen.
"It is something where you stay in the dark
dungeon, the gym, and you-train for one or two years;
then you come back out for a minute at night, and
that’s your glory. And than you go bark to the gym."
That one minute of glory comes when body
builders are given a chance to do optional freestyle
posing during competitions. Usually, that time comes
after a hard day of prejudging, and it is the part spec
tator* usually get to see.
By the time the night show rolls around, the Judg
ing and competition are done, and the results an* in,
although the competitors are not told who has won
"At the night show, that 's pretty much of a show
for the spectators and for the competitors to have
fun," says Dave Shew, a University senior. "The
pressure is basically off then, and you are just out
there to have a good time. It is your 60 seconds to let
louse and have fun with all the hard work you've been
doing. It's great."
And all in the name of body building.
Woodle arid Shew, who both workout at Help's
Body Building and Health Club, will get the chance to
display the results of their years of hard work later this
month during the Seventh Annual Emerald Empire
Body Building Championships.
The competition, to be held May 31 at the Ijine
County fairgrounds, will have four Emerald Empire
divisions: men's and women's novice and open com
petition. There, will also be competition in over 35.
Collegiate and teenage divisions ’
According to Mark Help. a member of the family
that owns Help's, there should ire approximately 70
people jn the competition.
He thinks the largest groups will be in either the
collegiate division, in which anyone taking 12 college
credit hours may enter, or tho teenage division, which
is for people 19 and under V . ;v
Help says even though people may tie working
out with weights, it may take two or three months to
actually prepare for a competition During that period
of concentrated training, body builders heavily em
phasize diet in an effort to cut their body fat down,
sometimes to as low as 4 percent.
Preparing for competition is a very individual
thing. Help says. "During our Iasi contest, one guy
about killed himself through diet and stuff, and
another guy. who was just as close to him in terms of
definition (of muscles), just cut out beer fur two
weeks." Help says. . ;'
The judges for the contest will be looking for
miiscularity, a combination of having large muscles
and definition, as well as proportion and symmetry of
the body and the shape of the muscles. Help says
Shew says his strength in competitions is that he
is "not overly big hut I am very symmetrical."
Size in one of the things that brought Shew into
body building. As a senior In high school, he was only
about tt-2, 150 pounds. Now, ho competes at around
200 pounds.
"I was Just small.. and 1 got tired of being that
small. And I decided to do something about it,” says
Shew, who has been weightlifting since he was about
15 years old. "It snowlralled and I decided I might
want tu compete i saw those guys and decided they
weren't that much better than I was.”
So far. Shew has been serious about body
building for the Inst three years, having entered four
contests In 10H4, he won the Mr. Collegiate Southern
Oregon contest and was third in last year's Mr. Col
legiate Oregon.
Although Woodln hasn't had as much com**
petitive experience yet, he says he is in it to stay.
"The day I started lifting weights In the gym was the
day I was n serious lardy builder.” YVoodle says.
"After graduation from high school. I made the con.it
tment that I wanted to be a body builder. It has been
47 months."
Maybe someday, Woodle says, he would like to
turn his dream into something big like breaking into
the professional world of body building or even
Hollywood or endorsements. Also, he says he would
like to opart his own gym "I like the gym. It's a com
fortable at nmsphere."
Woodle says he got interested in the sport
through a surf of building process that started when
he was younger. Watching his heroes on T.V. and
reading Tarzan books!
“Everything was sort of geared toward the bigger
person and the:athlete And I was into urt also in high
school! I was* painter, and the subjects i used to paint
would be like .the muscular physique whether it be
male or female.
"I myself was only fi-1. 135 pounds as a senior in
high school so i wasn't a big boy and being little guy.
you do get picked on Everything came together, and I
wanted to be a body builder." says Woodle. who says
he has been as heavy as 250 pounds, but has been
dieting and is now about 210 pounds
As part of his diet. Woodle has had to give up eat
ng "everything that tastes good in life: pizza, Oreo
cookies, ice cream, apple pie."
Instead, he has had to eat puffed wheat, oatmeal,
fruit and very lean foods.
"Mentally, it takes a lot of will power." Woodle
says. "My roommate is a junk focal junkie, lie eats
chocolate pie in front of me. Captain Crunch, Pop
Tarts, Snickers bars.”
Cary Woodle
For physical training. both Woodle and Shew lift
weights six days a week as well as doing some aerobic
exercises such as riding a stationary bike. Both say
they would like to run but are unable to because of bad
knees and shins.
"Training not only fine tunes your physique, it
also prepares you for flexing for that long because it
does take a lot out of you to hold that pose for 30
seconds. Then you relax and a couple of seconds later
they ask you to do it agin." Shew says.

Bui. apparently, he didn't think he was good
enough for the Oregon track team. Oregon men's
track and field coach Bill Beijinger, however, kick
ed Boileau back onto the track and convinced him
he had what it took to run for Oregon Boileau ran
for the Bucks from 1977 to 1980.
“We had some horses back then," he says,
naming Alberto Salazar and Bill McChesney. Five of
the team's members became Olympians
Bellinger says he saw promise in Boileau. "I
got him into a P.E. class — he wasn't even out for
track,’’ Bellinger says. “I think he's an example of
an individual with some talent. . if you stick with
something long enough it pays off,*'
“We won the NCAAs in cross country in
1977,” Boileau says. “1 was on the team then, but I
didn't score in the meets. But those guys could run
They were an inspiration. It's great to run with the
best. Alberto — be was awesome.”
Boileau is now able to run as much as he wants.
when he wants. Unlike many Eugene runners.
Boileau doesn’t have to schedule his training
an>iiml work or school.
He has earned a strong reputation as a distant.*'
runner, and recently, Hoiieuu gained a shoe contra* t
with Tiger International to support him.
Boileau sits in blue Tiger sweats with clean
Tiger running shoes on his size 13 feet. "Hig. aren't
they?" he says, laughing He tells how strange hut
necessary it felt at f’rat to be an "advertisement."
, "That's what happened after '83. was to nail
that thing ... because not too mony world-class run
ners hold down jobs," Hoileau says. "You basically
can’t work, especially if you're traveling a lot."
Although he only runs in one or two marathons
a year, he runs about eight or nine miles twice each
day. However. Boileau says increased mileage
shouldn't lie a runner’s goal.
“Some people really get into the mileage Hut.
you don't know what percentage of those are easy
miles and if you're running poorly or at slow in
tervals you should probably cut down." he says.
"You train so you can run fast. You don't train so
you can train more.
"You only need to run about 2t) minute* a day.
You’re better off running tin* ink. God knows what
kind of shape some of those guys are in a week after
the marathon," ho says with a grimace.
For Boileau, the pain came three days after the
Hoston Marathon
"I'd say it's ahout like being DO years old. You
come to a set of stairs and it's tough." he says.
The five-foot-10-inch, 155-pound runner con
siders himself "stocky" for a distance runner. "A
lot of distance runners are skinny, hut the top three
guys at Boston were all 150 pounds or heavier,
which is big for a marathoner." he says.
Aging is not a detriment to distance runners ac
cording to Boileau. lie says running is a sport that
c an l>e enjoyed throughout life, providing the run
ner is careful.
"A lot of people have success early in life. It’s
Icetter to start off slow and gradually improve," he
says. "There aren't too many 19-year-old record
runners; most are in their mid-20s. . .Staying clear
of injury is the main thing, and that's hard to do-as
you net older."
Good diet and relaxed running are necessary
elements in a runner's life. Boileau says. Training
doesn't mean going 100 percent all of the time.
"People can get burned out. and that's dangerous,"
he says.
So far. Boileau says he is not burned out and is
definitely bound for the Olympics. He also says he
will have a tough race when he heads for the Com
monwealth Games on Aug. 2. in Kdinburgh.
Scotland. Boileau says the race will be bigger, and
he will run against de Gasteila again.
"That's a big one — there are a lot of Africans.
Kenyans, Tanzanians. It could lie a really good field
if everyone shows up.”
Dellinger says Boileau's running career is
similar to his running style: He starts out moderate
ly slow at first and then gradually increases his
speed.
"He's good now, but he’ll get better. He’ll
become one of the internationally competitive
marathoners."
