He doesn't really look any more amazing than he did earlier on this year (which is good but he's unbalanced). 

Still, hard to tell.  Presumably those are pumped pics.  He might be able to explain whether he's made some improvements. His shoulders are monster.

Edit:  Well I only saw 3 pics and they were the worst of the group.  Looks awesome but as far as I remember he looked awesome a while back too.

He just doesn't have the balance (mainly poorly shaped bis and tris) to make it on structure alone, he needs to come in shredded if he ever wants to make a top 3 and he just hasn't seemed to nail his conditoning in recent shows.

I was speaking too Luke when i came to Sydney for the Australian titles a few weeks back. It was very evident that his chest has come up alot! his arms, still need more and legs are always huge. But its his delts and back now that are just STUPID! i believe his back and delts can stand next to anyone in the world and look on par!! his back is like YATES! i think his delts and back really over power his arms though. His arms are not small, his forearms are huge but his delts out weight his bi's and tri's.

Luke said he is doing the Ironman early next year.
Title: Re: Luke Wood. 281lbs looking awsome!!
Post by: rocket on November 08, 2006, 03:12:01 AM
There's no doubts that he has no problem with his delts being too small, they're just stuffing with the balance of his physique.  They knock out the size of his chest which may be getting better as you say.

I agree that his biceps shape is unfortunate.

How many top pros have you been around?

Its not that I disagree, its just you comments sound biased.

Its easy for me to be positive about Luke Wood and Lee Priest because they're australian but this board is all about being real and me being real is that Luke is a freak and his shape doesn't flow enough to be hanging with the best (YET).  Luke himself wouldn't claim that though, the guy is a champ on here when he posts.

I think so too. He is too lean all year around to be real huge
Title: Re: Luke Wood. 281lbs looking awsome!!
Post by: shootfighter1 on November 08, 2006, 06:46:26 AM
Thats pretty damn lean for 280lbs.  Even more impressive is that this is off season.  Luke has plenty of size.  As stated above, he needs to nail his conditioning to move up more in the placings.  I think you'll see him in the top 10 for sure this yr.  Sure arms could be brought up more but almost every BBer has a region to improve.  Major improvements to his chest in the last yr which makes more balance to his large delts.

Agreed!
Did Luke tear his right biceps? Or did he just get that fucked in the proverbial gene pool when they handed out insertion points for his arms?

I hate to say it, but the way he is put together - I don't think he will ever crack the top tier.  Even if you added another 15 pounds in all the right places, his build just isn't what it takes.  Odd structure and inserts.

He'll overdiet to 245, try to carb up too much, overdo the diuretics, and end up flat and washed over again. 
Luke tries to do too much for a contest.

I'm sure Luke is a great guy, but I'm tired of seeing him go out and disappoint Milos.  Milos is old, and his ticker can't take the kind of constant disappointment that Luke brings with each show.

Post by: Vince B on November 08, 2006, 07:49:35 PM
In the old days Luke would have enterred just like that and be considered cut up. He has to find a way to keep the size and get more defined on stage. Dorian failed at presenting his biggest on stage so it must be a challenge to do that. So many others, like Dennis, have the same problem. They look huge and fantastic in the gym but somehow don't look so amazing on stage.

I disagree with Dorian , but both Luke and Dennis look great in the photos they show pre contest as they never show you the poses that cost them their lower placings both Dennis and Luke are top 10 in any delt pose they are massive, but front double bis and front lat spread, they start slipping down the order, sadly in the pros your placings come from your weak points not strengths and both have problems with these poses, or basically any time they put their arms above their heads hence why we never see them do those shots when showing improvments, you cannot rate ones potential on a few chosen poses, but need to see all the mandatories to access ones potential, many props to Luke though hes brought his chest up and his arms are well, hes doing the best he can, but both have to keep control of their waist as they get bigger, personally i think DJ is on his way down as hes played the mass game to much and as hes got bigger he hasnt improved his weakpoints and his strengths have become more obvious and hes lost overall flow and this year he wont place high, if luke can improve his front two poses he will start to move up the ladder but if he cant hell struggle

I don't know. I see a huge, reasonably cut guy like Luke and am amazed. There are guys winning some shows with far inferior physiques to Luke. I cite Darrem Charles here. Darrem should carry Luke's training bag!

I think Luke should enter a contest looking like he does above and forget about cutting up. Heck, I would rather leave an impression of being huge than just being another guy on stage who missed something or other.

Yeah and sometimes less. Problem is with Luke he seems to lose more conditioning the more he tries to get. Ends up looking flat and small which for Luke's structure flaws not a good thing. Looks much bigger, better at a higher weight.

Sorry Vince Darrem Charles is in a different league. But Luke time will come when he can place top 5 in a pro show.

good call Bigkahuna. But with 20 something million people, there isnt a market for pro BB. IF you want to make money the US is where its at..However with sports like golf, tennis, swimming, rugby/ AFL... thats where the money is with Aussie sport  ;)

Luke was born sometime in the fall of 1976 if I'm not mistaken.

How does juice affect aging?  Kevin Levrone looks around my age, but is 41.  ???  Dorian is not much older than Kevin but I would honestly believe it if he said Kevin was his grandson, especially given Kevin's questionable ethnic background lol.

The juice ages you - especially in the face (where it counts).  Look at Like, Dorian, or even 22 year old Flex.  If you juice, get ready to look older than you are.

I am only months younger than Luke - but look much younger.  I am not 280+ pounds, but I'm perfectly ok with that...  :D

You need some more medication there grandpa, Luke is good, hell you have to be good to make it to that level but to compare him to Charles in the way you have is nothing short of ludacris, I am not a big Charles fan myself but just look at the mans career and it speaks for itself.

Luke was born sometime in the fall of 1976 if I'm not mistaken.

How does juice affect aging?  Kevin Levrone looks around my age, but is 41.  ???  Dorian is not much older than Kevin but I would honestly believe it if he said Kevin was his grandson, especially given Kevin's questionable ethnic background lol.

August 2nd 1976!

I'm sure Luke is a great guy, but I'm tired of seeing him go out and disappoint Milos.  Milos is old, and his ticker can't take the kind of constant disappointment that Luke brings with each show.

Ok!! let me correct you! Disappoint Milos?? Im sure Milos could answer this better, but the day i dissapoint Milos is the day i quit bodybuilding! Milos is old!!! MMMMM, you will regret that when he kicks some major ass in his comeback next year!

I don't know. I see a huge, reasonably cut guy like Luke and am amazed. There are guys winning some shows with far inferior physiques to Luke. I cite Darrem Charles here. Darrem should carry Luke's training bag!

I think Luke should enter a contest looking like he does above and forget about cutting up. Heck, I would rather leave an impression of being huge than just being another guy on stage who missed something or other.

Hello Vince. Next year i will bring the size and condition in one BIG package! :)

Man i can tell it would take 5 Luke Wood's to fill Milos's shoes!!! Milos wants to get his point across and trust me he loses no sleep over this!! Milos loves to compete in all area's of life and he loves a debate. You guys think he is biting but if you really read his post he is just answering the question or the critisium he has been served in great detail!! The man has the brains of 5 doctors, has more training knowledge than anyone and still is in incredible shape, so thanks but no thanks! I am in no position to even come close to filling Milos's boots!

I will never sacifice health!!! i love bodybuilding with a passion but there is life after as well. Marrige, kids, the big house and getting old that is very important also.  I think i will have enough size next year to qualify.  I  mean 265lbs at 5'11 will not need more size just exposure!

yep , luke looks great in the pics..and obviously has improved....but front double bi sorts everyone out....you cant hide anything except a weak back in it.

Which Dex does have, but he's flexing his abs together which makes his waist look wider.

I will never sacifice health!!! i love bodybuilding with a passion but there is life after as well. Marrige, kids, the big house and getting old that is very important also.  I think i will have enough size next year to qualify.  I  mean 265lbs at 5'11 will not need more size just exposure!

Ok then, if of course you dont mind, what are your numbers on:
BP
HR
ALT/AST
LDL/HDL
Triglycerides
Creatinine
BUN

Just some basics here...

Health is something a lot of Pros don't consider.But if Luke says it,it must mean something to him.Remember his dad is a cop and would have been a great rolemodel.I think Luke will have a great 2007 placing well in Oz show with the Judges down there Top 3 and with no Lee they have to have an Aussie to keep the crowds paying.

Which Dex does have, but he's flexing his abs together which makes his waist look wider.
I'd like to see dexter not crunch down his abs on a front double bicep also... if he sucked up his ribcage into a semi vacuum he'd look better imo...

i wouldnt....dex's is better for a bunch of reasons...thanks for posting a crap pic of him  to illustrate the point....to claim cc destroys dex in that pose blows your cred out of the water.



Well that is from a contest in which they finished 2nd and 3rd ::)

Are these better or no wait the one of dex probably doesn't look good enough again right...........

This is an interesting comparison of the 2 ways people do this pose...

Chris is doing it the traditional arnold way (semi vacuum) and Dex is doing it with his abs flexed down...

Now Dex has great abs but he is really doing himself no favours here by doing this pose the way he does.

By flexing his abs down and NOT lifting the ribcage up his makes his lats and torso size smaller than he should - the front double bui is really an arm and lat pose first and foremost not an ab pose and his method lets his lats down a lot...

He should realize that even if he did a semi vac he is so lean that the outline of his abs would still be highly visible and that the judges aren't really too stressed if they don't see a full ab flex in this pose...

Here are a couple of good examples even though the chickster ain't in great shape here he does it very well...

My father retired after 37 years in the Police Force as a Detective Inspector. He was rank in the top 4 Police Offices before he retired in the state of New South Wales. Was a sniper/bodyguard for George Bush senior, Pope John Paul the second and the Queen of England. We have a whole room full of medals and awards my Father won and never took a back seat to no one. So yes i was brought up strict but couldn't be happier how i turned out. My Father also served with you Americans in the Vietnam war from 1964-1966. I am very proud of him and his incredible achievements.
My brother is a Sergeant in the Police Force and a hell of good Copper!! My Sister is a Senior Constable in the Police Force and i am a Professional Bodybuilder!!! ;D

imo Dex looks better than chris there...thicker, bigger arms, thicker chest, better legs, smaller waist, better delts, better shaped lats, far more pleasing aesthetically...

and all teh while he is robbing himself of even more added illusion as you say.

then again ive never been a fan of CC. his legs appear sinewy and dont sweep like others- the way he holds his front DB looks awkward and skewed- tris arent great and all the pec mass is at the top. from the rear he appears to have great detail but lacks thickness across the back in the upper and lower body.

anwhoo i cant figure why the CC fans, and you cant figure why the Dex fans...

i am convinced you are wrong....and you me...

BB is wierd like that eh?

Thats good :) Seriously though, whats your blood pressure looking like? Forget the blood numbers. I'm just curious because the biggest I've ever gotten at a lean weight was 230lbs and at that time i was regularly 135/90 (currently 108/62 widdled down to 215)...  I dont know how you guys could be anywhere near that.... Yeah, I understand its just going to go up from the added mass and all, but well what the hell, you probably cant even get an accurate reading with the size of the arms!

Blood pressure was done 2 weeks ago. Exactly the same as youirs 135/90. My Doctor was happy because for my size this is very good. 
I have had 140/90 a few times, but that bottom number is never ever over 90 which is most important. When i get to about 265lbs its normally 120/80

i'm actually not saying CC is better here stu because he doesn't really do that pose very well either (aside form sucking in his abs).

that is why i posted the 2 pics of arnold and bob.

Ok. Dexter has such an awsome physique and seems to be able to peak for everyshow. He is very consistant and very confident. A truly beautiful physique. Chris fails to be as consistant. Chris has and still does have a tremedous physique! But does'nt come in the 100% like he should sometimes or has the potential too!! But i will say when Chris is at his best he is in my eyes MR OLYMPIA!!! when Chris is on, he is flawless!!!!

Good response, Dex is awesome and has a crazy physique but he just isn't complete in my eyes which is why I feel he is overrated but def top 10 in the world depending on whose is competing and on their game. Chris is just what I feel is an ideal physique with nothing missing, sure you could nit pick but you can't say he lacks in anything except the ability to come in 100% consistently. As you may know I am a huge Cormier fan and since I didn't follow the sport until he was past what some say was his prime I am rooting for him to come in 100% again and I hope to see it. The main reason I didn't go to the Arnold last year cause he wasn't doing it, same with the AC pro. Anyway have you ever competed with them before (sorry I don't feel like looking it up myself)?

I have competed against Chris in the 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004 Australian Grand Prix's. Chris won 3 of them and placed second to Dexter at one of them. I competed against Dexter at the 2001, 2002 and 2004 Australian Grand Prix's. The size and shape Chris brought in 2001 was just awsome. Dexter however in 2004 looked amazing!!!

this is the way to bring up bicep peaks.

forearms could use some light, high rep close grip reverse curls with the straight bar also with the elbows held in front of the hips...

Luke the Ironman is before the Aussie show right? You should do the Ironman even if you aren't fully dieted down cause you would still look huge and in the Ironman lighting you would look insane. Plus you could use it as a warmup and get some hype behind you before the Aussie show. Just a suggestion :)

I will be in super contest shape for the Ironman as well. I have never done this show and i want to peak for this as well. Yes the lighting is incredible i have heard so yes i will be bring a very full but very hard phyique there. I will be about 264 at the Ironman.  I respect your suggestion! thankyou!!!
