2015 Olympia - Dennis Wolf trains arms eight days out.

[WalterWhite]

Looks good at the end when he shows off his arms. Has that near death look to his face.

[NaturalWonder83]

One of the nicest guys in the industry
He's well known in the casting director circle too

[The Ugly]

Every year we anticipate some exciting unveiling, and every year we see the exact same shit as (or often worse than) the year before. Same here, watch.

Not sure how much longer I can front this 'half-full' optimism charade, fellas.

[DroppingPlates]

One of the most likeable pros

[OB1]

Too bad he looks like he's gonna kill himself.

[Vince B]

Gosh, such light weights and loose style. The only exercise he did strict was the triceps extension with the ropes. Love the convex preacher bench. Larry Scott recommended that because the elbows stay away from the pads.

Wonder what he would look like using my triceps exercise and biceps-supinator? He sure isn't putting his biceps under severe tension for very long in those reps. Short, cheating movements.

[WOOO]

... and you looked decent for one year in the fucking 40s.

Seems like a nice guy.

His arms would look exactly the same

[Vince B]

Yes, maybe guys like Dennis have reached maximum hypertrophy. My point is that anyone here trying to get bigger wouldn't do so if they trained like he did on the video.

I mean, if you are going to do biceps concentration curls with a 30 pound dumbbell you should try to do a fuller range of movement and keep the muscle under tension longer.

I was using that kind of weight when my arms were not even 16 inches!

[NickEdge779]

One of my favorite bodybuilders personality wise, but his genetics just hold him back from the top stop. Lat insertions too high and small calves. Makes him look more narrow from the front.

Well, things like the need for a full ROM and the required TUT for hypertrophy are classic, never ending debates. Look at Ronnie Coleman, he often trained with piss poor rep techniques but he's still the GOAT...
About the weight, his joints are prob fried at this pre contest stage, so why risk an injury?

[Fortress]

I always cringe seeing the colour, etc. of this guy's mug. He just DOES NOT look well.

If he's gonna pump this close to a contest, I think he'd be better off doing so to his calves.

Seems like a decent enough fellow.

Hope he gets out and salvages whatever he has left of his health before it's too late.

Not necessarily. All relative to the individual. Matarazzo probably had the most ridiculous calves ever, and all he ever did was quarter reps. Just squeezed 'em up top, no stretch at all.

Most of the monsters use incredibly short range of motion. And if it works, why the hell not?

[SF1900]

If Wolf used Basiles Bicep supination machine, he would have massive arms like Basile.

He's 6 days out from the Mr. Olympia, you stupid moron. Why is he going to be killing himself to do 70 pound concentration curls? He's not going to be putting on any muscle in 6 days.

I don't take kindly to being disrespected at my gym or even on the Internet. So watch what you say to someone who has been there, done the lot. For a guy as big as Dennis I should think he would use somewhat heavier weights. He goes on about his fans but I wasn't impressed and neither should anyone else.

lol


But ome thing you  forgot about these pre olympia videos is that they are often just a few weeks from contest and just want to pumpcand not get injured. I have no idea how wolf train in the offseason but can be totally different

Be quiet, you demented fool. You don't know shit. You look like utter garbage.

Dennis peaked in 2007. Sliding into Palumboism ever since.

Yes, and Negro Jesus doesn't much trouble himself with muscleman miracles.

Vince what's your "tricep exercise "? Did you post a video?

[Vince B]

I must do some videos one day. One of the most effective exercises is what Larry Scott advocated. I made a few triceps machines for our gym.

The updated version has adjustable side pads to keep the elbows from going out to the side.

I even converted a Nautilus Triceps machine so it could be used properly instead of seated.

[Croatch]

Wolf looks like he's on the verge of Black Death for the past 6 years.  Ruhl genetics.  Luke Wood looked similar.
If I saw someone doing kickbacks for triceps with that form, I would be laughing.  Just goes to show how form means literally nothing compared to drugs and genetics.  Wolf actually uses decent weight in general though.
