Aside from being a UFC commentator and one of the world’s leading podcasters, Joe Rogan is also a fitness enthusiast. The 55-year-old is proficient in martial arts and maintains a superb physique. So it may come as a surprise that Rogan once ignorantly mocked an entire category of bodybuilders.

Joe Rogan regularly posts about his workouts on social media. He has also hosted bodybuilding legends like Ronnie Coleman and Dorian Yates on the Joe Rogan Experience. However, in an old segment featuring Michael Malice, Rogan made some uneducated comments on Men’s Physique Bodybuilding.

When Joe Rogan made fun of Men’s Physique Bodybuilding

Joe Rogan and Michael Malice conversed on JRE #1608 in February 2021. The pair had intriguing discussions on several interesting topics, including bodybuilding. They pulled up a picture of a Men’s Physique bodybuilder on the screen while they were discussing the use of tans in bodybuilding.

“They don’t show the quads because they’re in the board shorts,” Malice observed. However, this detail drew out some poorly informed comments from Rogan. A surprised Rogan responded,

“What? Wait a minute, what is this nonsense? Wait a minute, they don’t show their f—king quads, they wear board shorts?… This is real? What is going on? Why are they wearing board shorts? What the f—k is that? That is so strange. The stage outfit is (board shorts)? It is hilarious.”

Unlike Classic Physique bodybuilding, Men’s Physique focuses on upper body proportions. It requires competitors to wear those knee-high shorts as opposed to the briefs worn by the Classic counterpart. This is because legs are not as much of a priority in Men’s Physique category as in Classic Bodybuilding.

Rogan’s comments were in poor taste. Considering he has had conversations with legends of the sport like Ronnie Coleman, he should have done his research and understood the different aspects of the competition better.

Ronnie Coleman explained his insane diet to Rogan

Back in June 2020, Joe Rogan hosted bodybuilding icon Ronnie Coleman on the Joe Rogan Experience. Coleman and Rogan discussed Coleman’s career and various other topics surrounding the sport of bodybuilding. During their conversation, Coleman explained his insane diet to Rogan.

“I eat about, like, a pound of chicken, grilled breast you know, with half a cup of rice… That was a normal meal. I had about six meals a day, you know. It’s kind of hard to eat like that, you know. So I would have to wake up in the middle of the night to eat and go back to sleep.”

Coleman added it was normal for him, but it would be difficult for a normal person to follow that kind of diet. Rogan asked if it was tiring or annoying to wake up to eat. Coleman said it was something you had to get used to. Well, those are the sacrifices you have to make to reach Coleman’s level of success in the sport.
