He should also hit the tanning booth. As jacked up as he is, he looked really pale.

He is a beast! I don't think I know a guy his age with the shape that he's in.

I never liked the blatant double standards/hypocrisy with that family.
"Oh you can't take any drugs/supplements guys but me, my daughter and son in law can all look like this even though were performers"
When the owners look better than the talent something is seriously wrong with that picture. How can the 70/50/40 year old owners look better than 95 percent of their roster and have a "drug test" instilled? Nonsense

Terrifying if you consider that he's 70 and has injected more into his system than Ivan Drago did.

After a certain age, I feel like you sort of HAVE to start adding supplements to stay in bodybuilder shape. Look at Sly Stallone, who is about the only other person I can think of at a similar age that's still that kind of ripped.
It's different if you're sports-specific since I know that rowing for instance seems to have a disproportionate number of 60+ athletes still at it, but to be jacked/shredded at that age is a completely different animal.

Vince is certainly an oddity, but if you google you can still find plenty of pics of guys around 70 who look just as ripped as McMahon. Sure it's rare, but some guys do it.

Not to sound cliche, but not a doubt in my mind Vince is using HGH.

My friend is a personal trainer that is a retired natural bodybuilder he's 70 and still looks like he could compete today if he felt so inclined. Not to say that Vince isn't on anything, but it most assuredly is not necessary if you have the genetics and the drive to do it. Fun fact: he once lifted weights with Bruno Sammartino and swears that Bruno was benching something like 600 pounds as his warmup.

Did I spot the pre-Attitude Era WWF logo on Vince's weight training belt?

Adrian Street, too, though I haven't seen if he's still in shape recently. I feel like a ton of it depends on both genetics and how they trained when they were younger.

I'm the last guy who would know anything about physical fitness, but I would imagine that Vince not having to wrestle everyday and having the means to take better care of himself gives him an advantage that his employees don't have.

If by "terrifying" you mean "his heart could explode at any moment".

Given how un-athletic and un-coordinated most of the guys have said Vince is, and how awkward he tends to be when he is in a match (the matches themselves may be as good as they can be, but it's not cuz ol Vince is doing a lotta moves); he seems like he'd be the very definition of gym muscles. He's strong as hell obviously, but lifting a lotta weight doesn't mean you can fight.
As far as if he's on something or not, I think the truth is probably somewhere in the middle. He's been obsessive about bodybuilding for decades, so he's gonna have some of that naturally, but I think at his age he probably does have a little something to help whether it's testosterone or whatever.

Oh, Vince is so totally of the "Show Muscles is Best Muscles" approach to things. I'll bet a month's supply of protein powder that he's one, never looked up the dictionary definition of "musclebound", and two, has never really processed that bodybuilding muscles only really tend to be useful for, well, bodybuilding.

Maybe this is impressive, but I also remember that Vince McMahon is the guy who once blew both of his quads simply by getting into the ring.
