what is wrong with this young bodybuilder's physique?

[stuntmovie]

X,. good to see that Greg impressed ya. I got no idea what his bodywt is but he is former military and damn impressive to speak with.

My ass was pulled out of a tough situation by the US Army 101st Airborne so I am partial to active duty and retired military personnel no matter the bracnh of service so when I was told that Greg was military (West Point maybe?) I made it a point to talk with him.

BTW .... as a result of the 101st coming to my rescue, I threw a party for about 30 of the guys involved and was 'adopted' by the 101st in a very emotional but inebriated ceremony and I got the scars to prove it. A bit later that same night we got an alert and they dragged me off to see how they conducted combat maneuvers with the 'bad guys'

Nuff of that ..... The funny thing about these fitness guys is that they look like the average kid off the street in clothes but once the shirt comes off, it's a horse of a different color.

X, It might be a wise idea to contact Greg and see if he would offer any advice that would help you reach this new found goal

You too, JNN!

[clued-up]

So he's on juice?  What gh?

Is that a serious question?

[johnnynoname]

I'm sincere when I say I think you can achieve the same ... but ya gotta have HEART!

i believe so to

i just have to come to grips with the fact that i'm a "niche" where someone like Greg has more of a "universally marketable" look

in other words, i have a more "ethnic" look which ,lets be honest, isn't as excepted as the more "white" look

@james001- i agree that i don't have the genetic tools that greg has but i, thankfully, have a small waist and long torso so i have that work with. also, i can't comment i he is or isn't on "the gas"

[XFACTOR]

Is that a serious question?

lol I guess ya. I thought that was his full time job so he can look like that.

  i have posted 1 pic more than you.

when you post any pics we can talk. 

i have simpleton.....post up your thumbs up, fat tuba player pic and I'll re-post mine for a comparison.....shall we?

[stuntmovie]

JNN, it looks like you just 'convinced' yourself out of it".

But you guys gotta remember that Greg started off similar to the way JNN presently looks .... meaning he started off looking skinny but with lots of potential.

That Greg photo posted above was taken a few years after he was a skinny kid.

I agree that JNN may not end up looking like Greg but he can get into similar physical condition.

I see 'potential' when it comes to JNN's present condition and you guys seem to see just the here and now.

ANd JNN just convinced himself 'out of it'.

As for Xfactor, it would be interesting to see what he can achieve. but his major disadvantage is his age and the fact that he's gotta go DOWN to reach his goal, whereas JNN simply has to bo UP.

ANd that UP / DOWN shit is a major factor in reaching Greg's condition.

Maybe TBomz can explain that better.

not convincing myself out, per se--just know that certain doors are closed being a "ethnic" model

lets face it- i do have a ethnic look that doesn't sell in the Midwest

however, i'm not counting myself at all

[johnnynoname]

i have simpleton.....post up your thumbs up, fat tuba player pic and I'll re-post mine for a comparison.....shall we?

if fatpanda posts a recent pic of himself without his shirt (and holding a sign with his name on it),  then i will never post here again

and you have my word on that

My other disadvantage is that I like to party 

[SF1900]

Cut the bangs! 

[johnnynoname]

Cut the bangs!

@XFACTOR- you can still maintain a amazing physique and party hard
i'm proof of that

OK, I can't beat that old "Ethnic" excuse. That's an entirely new one to me.

[body88]

Go ask my friend Tony Halme.  He'll get you what you want.  And tell him hi for me.

Are you in this same pose in every picture from 20 years ago?

[Robgun1]

Try this pose its good for us non 300 pounder  (non 165 pounder)

what do you weigh

[Robgun1]

i'm he's not "attention whoring" but certain posters *cough* shrief sheleby fatpanda *cough* have taken exception with how "ugly" it is

i don't get it

seriously, what's wrong with it?

  granted he isn't that big but he is very aesthetic

Appears to be a swimmers body more so than bodybuilding.

[The True Adonis]

X-Factor,

What did you do with your mid 90`s 3 series BMW, Maserati and Porsche that you had 3 years ago?

[stuntmovie]

Here's Greg when he was little.

And that's his mom and dad.

Goes to show - you can do it without genetics....

but genetics are 98.9% of it.

The lady is Sherri, Be nice! She's a great lady!

[newmom]

oh for goodness sake TA, why are you dredging up a 3 year old thread..

X has a good physique, good looking wife..let it be

I would hate for anyone to get the wrong impression of our story telling friend. 

[The True Adonis]

After reading that old thread, I almost feel sorry for X-Factor in a sense.
 

[stuntmovie]

Not to change the subject but this bodybuilder impresses me way more than any other bodybuilder I've ever met.

I've never met him but I believe I once read  that he had many bouts with cancer.

He had the heart to get it done and I salute him with admiration and total courtesy.

It's amazing what we can accomplish once we put our mind to it.

[stuntmovie]

Thanks, SH, I was only trying to be funny and show how small Greg looked in a shirt.

Now I know I failed in part.

Thanks, SH!

Lucky for him that he only has to do half the work on leg day.
