I made a thread a while ago about the 7ft (214cm) Mark "Conan" Stevens, but the thread is ancient now, and he has improved a whole lot since then.
This is his site here: http://www.conanstevens.com
He has quite a bit of info there.
After a 6 year off setback in the gym he finally started training again only 1-1/2 years ago.
Nerve damage ate the nerves in his right arm and upper right side of his body. His body regenerated the nerves at only 1mm a day, so it took him 6 full years off before he could start training again. :-\
Primarily he is an Actor; bodybuilding is just a successful hobby of his. His primary focus is on acting, and bodybuilding is the secondary agenda on his list. As such he prefers to be compared only to other full time actors physique wise.
Keep in mind that only 2 years ago the entire right upper half of his body looked Emaciated, he really has made a hell of a comeback. He said he still plans on doing a lot more work improving his physique, but he has made a long way for a recovery in only two years.
Here is what he looked like only about 18 months ago: http://www.conanstevens.com/component/option,com_gallery2/Itemid,32/?g2_itemId=227

Not impressive at all
-
Speaking of tall bodybuilders, who's that one that looks like Joe Camel?
-
Where was the update for that 2nd and 3rd year he was laid up?
Some fan you are >:(
-
Why in the hell does someone make a thread up about this guy every week to two weeks??? Yeah he is a big guy being 7ft, but not totally impressive..
-
why does his site have links to "thai super porn"?
-
He needs to learn how to pose those arms, That just makes him look bad.

dude carries some damn good size for being 7 feet.
-
LOL, I just put up the thread because he put up better pictures and is in better shape than in the last one.
Yeah, I am a crappy fan.
Damn, I thought people here would be impressed that a Bodybuilder, even one who does not compete is making a move to bring muscle back to Hollywood.
OR, that going from looking like a fitness model to a bodybuilder's build again in less than 2 years after returning to bodybuilding training would be impressive.
That build on an ectomorph frame tall enough to center in the NBA is some small acheivment. ::)
Hi Conan.
-
LOL! "not impressive at all.".
this guy is fucking huge.. 7 feet tall!!
he shoulders are probably twice as wide as everyone here except daddy waddy(who is 6'6'').
if you saw this guy in person you would run the other way crying for your mother.
-
lets be clear...this is a big guy who trains and has some muscle. this is not a bodybuilder who can get on a stage

Someone's got a "big man" fetish.....

Who is Som Tam?
Is the salad named for him/her?
-
They pay stiffs like him $2-3M a year in the NBA just to stand under the basket, and try and rebound. Why bbing?

Being that you used the term "only" for the nerve regeneration speed.....are you aware at just how fast nerves typically regenerate at? When speaking of the "1mm per day", thats considered normal to mildy accelerated. Also, were the nerves severed? Thats usually the only time nerves need to "regenerate".
-
Guys, keep in mind that the guy is 7 feet tall and obviously has very long bones and muscles. If the same amount of muscle were put on a guy who was a foot shorter, he'd look huge.

regular size bb
