I read on Robby Robinson's site that he lives in Puerto Rico now.  I don't know if that's true.

The last I heard, He was deported from the U.S.This is what I read some where,but believe nothing what you read and very little what you see. I wish someone would come up with the truth. I havent seen him in 40yrs.

Isn't there another thread on him around here from about a year ago?  Somebody saw him training at a gym in NY somewhere?  I think Freddy gave the guy some advice on how to do his chins.  Something like that.

Hulk,if you want to contact Bob Adams for some mags about Freddie,then have a look on our members list,click the letter B,then page 8,scroll down and you`ll see Bobs name there,he`s a member of this site.Its got his e-mail address and his website on his details,i`ve had quite a few Muscle Builder and Power mags from the 70s from him.

In those shots it looks like his arms are bigger than his waist!  Stop it right now!  Shocked  It's not humanly possible!  I WELL remember those shots!!

"Mom, can I have some weights for Christmas so I can build arms bigger than my waist?"

"Of course, Dear."
