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 ;D

Gustavo would always post pics of himself 2 week,1 week, 4 days, 3 days ,2 days, 4 hours, 2 hours, ect before a contest.. I always thought that was dumb cause the judges already had seen what he looked like before stepping on stage .

Already that would be impressive for an IFBB-Pro.
