    Lee is the quintessential southern gentleman. If Arnold’s record ever had to be beaten, I’m glad it was done by someone with Lee’s disposition and moral character
  • @damion1483
    Lee could seriously get into voice acting with that timbre.
  • If all male bodybuilders had the class Lee Haney has, bodybuilding would be an Olympic sport !!!!! What an amazing man !!!
  • @STONESGAM
    I love this guy. This is a real man. Forget all these stupid Alpha Male vids on the internet. This guy is the real deal. He is a world champion bodybuilder 8 times over. Has a good marriage with his wife of 32 years. Stays in shape. Is articulate. Believes in God. Went after what he wanted in life and follows his passion. Is a good role model. This is the type of guy I would want my son to be if I had one. Though I wouldn't want my kid involved in competitive bodybuilding these days due to I think it is extremely unhealthy. You can't be natural and be competitive.
  • It's no wonder Lee's legacy has endured so long. Awesome bodybuilder but an even more awesome human being.
  • @johnswaim3919
    Lee Haney. To me, this gentleman has always epitomized the best of bodybuilding. He exudes class, grace, humility, and has a spirituality that inspires like few others. Truly a gift to humanity. All the best and God Bless.
  • @twds01
    First Frank Zane and now Lee Haney, strong work!
  • @victormillward
    Wow! Brilliant interview. Why oh why is Haney not respected more? Everyone talks about Zane, Platz and Arnie but Haney needs to be at the top. What a champion and gentleman. Thank you
  • The man is such a great inspiration. Lee Haney: Body of steel and a heart of gold!
  • @TOM_OUTDOORS
    Lee is such a nice guy, so modest and humble. His back and lats were incredible, you knew as soon as he walked on stage, he would win hands down! such a soothing voice, could listen to him for ages, and such a likable personality. one of the few golden era bodybuilders who has had a healthy life after his career.
  • @porcupinecraig
    Lee is a completely happy guy. Contrast that with Phil Heath who seems to never be happy. Just goes to show that winning or money will not make anyone happy. It has to come from within. Lee has it. I met him once in person and heard him speak. Same as this interview. Stand up guy.
  • @TheScottishoats
    A man of substance, integrity, and character. Truly a role-model for men.
  • @matchutang4626
    Lee Haney is so well-spoken and articulate, I only recently discovered who he was, he is definitely under appreciated.
  • @MROST
    He is actually a REALLY Good Person I feel that
  • Lee Haney attained Mass with Class and in 1991 he won his eighth consecutive Mr. Olympia at his best physique ever. Defeating Dorian Yates in the process. He has no blemish on his record. He is the greatest bodybuilder of all time in my opinion.
  • @jeffkaplan7777
    As a body building pastor, I love this guy! His priorities are spot on. May God continue to bless you and your family, Lee!
  • @louiehewitt6514
    Such an amazing and genuine human being. Probably the best ever role model for bodybuilding
  • @carpediem6568
    Build strength in off season, pre-exhausting legs, stimulate-not annihilate, maintain weight within striking distance, maticulous notes and using to analyze, then strategize, it never ends with Haney. In a class of his own.
  • @lh9140
    Great champion! Great Faith world needs more like him.
