ya but he couldn't keep his great shape as a top finisher for a long time.. he was relatively young when his places started to go back.. may be injuries or just his genetics i dont know..

He was not good enough at his best. Worse than bad at his lowest.

I saw a recent pic of him doing crossfit and looking much smaller. Is he returning to bodybuilding? Anyone know his age?

Yes, whenever some newbie at the gym asks me what can be achieved naturally, I tell him to get a copy of the 2005 Mr Olympia contest.

3rd place at the olympia!

Ok, I realise he did a few cycles of cell-tech and he could've stacked it with other MTech stuff, but he's been open about that...

yes bro. at his best he was much better than badell's best.. much better whole lower body,.. better chest, shoulders and abs.. badell's arms were better shape wise.. both had relatively weak backs,.. badell's lacked thickness and mass.. nasser's lacked dryness and details..

and if we put body parts aside,.. nasser was better in more poses imo..

i didnt want the thread to go this way but here we go

nasser was one of the best, and still is.
250 lbs with abbs and able to speak 7 languages.
