Looks damn good ! I hope he does well
-
Fucking unreal.
Great shape.
Only problem is he has some OBVIOUS synthol in his tri/delt are, other than that he looks like a champ.
:o

Troy Alves is one of best esthetic pro bodybuilders !!
-
He's 41 going on 42 this year and still has a crisp and young looking physique.

Totally agree, always under rated, and usually gets a 3rd or 4th when he should get a first place.

He only competed 2 times in 2007:
10th at 2007 Atlantic City Pro
6th at 2007 Montreal Pro Classic
He was under-rated before !

I was thinking the Ironman Pro where he looked like a champ....
2006 Ironman Pro Invitational - IFBB
1 Lee Priest
2 David Henry
3 Troy Alves
-
always looks like the champ he is
-
That's the nicest lockerroom I've ever seen.
-
No one had rear delts like that in the good old days!
-
He looks great, small waist, but i still feel his hamstring and glutes will still be under developed and hold him back in the show.

I think the development is fine and the problem is conditioning in that area.

I remember that competition, Troys was ripped all over...he owned everyone in all the backposes.
-
Upper Body looks great but he really does lack detail in the leg department.

not following just commenting because you are from here also---dude if I was following you would know--note the avatar I have and maybe browse some of my posts on the Y. People are very aware if I am following them.

If Troy Alves bring up his hams & calves at 2008 Ironman Pro,then I think he can enter top 5 .
-
Troy looks packed
-
looks good. at least he doesn't have a monster wide waist.
-
trim waistline. looks good...
-
looks good, should place top 6, such a tough field tho
-
im far from a expert but is there oil in that rear delt? but troy looks very good. if his lower body can grt as dry as his upper body, a top 5 finish you couldn't argure with. very pleasing physique

Why is it that everyone on this board thinks that almost EVERY pro has "OBVIOUS" synthol ???? Buddy, ever hear of a pump???? theres not one drop of synthol in this guy..... ::)

They post under their "user name" certainly have the advantage of speaking whatever they want .

He is the one of the enigmas for me.
He looks very very good in weeksout pics. But why he doesnt look so good onstage?
-
Awesome. Looks especially good from the side. SHould do very well.

Gold's Gym Peroia, Az
Troy is one of the most gifted bb as far as genetics go. Problem is, his hams and glutes stay water logged and blur definition. Before the show, they are there but when he gets on stage they swell with water. That is the only hitch and if he fixes it this year, will be top 3 with that shape and hardness.
Looks good, go rep AZ TROY!!

Up the Slin
-
easily one of the most disrespected bodybuilders over the last few years, admittedly he is not always on, but even when he is he seems to get overlooked. Hope he can pull it all together and get the placing he deserves.
-
HE'LL BREAK IN TO THE TOP 5!

thats because you dont walk around with 23-24 inch arms with a torse of 20 year old local bodybuilder at height of 5'8 ,,,doesnt work this way my friend,, we push lots of oil everywhere and some of us know how to do it and pull it and some obviously not,,
have you ever looked at the narrow back and torso of heath? that guy wouldnt win a local competition with out the arms and the details he has in the arms ,,legs and the narrow midsection,,but guess what if you take the tose by itself he woudnt win even local level coompetition! he is only one example of many many and dont think i have anything againt him he is weider boy and suck the right connections now inordeer to become top 3 in the sport but have no doubt about it,,
WE ALL USE SEO,,ALL USE SEO ,,ALL USE SEO
the guys who dont use seo are the guy that at 5'10 present 19-20inch on stage,,those are the lucky ones genetically as you like to put it and the ones who respond phenominally to hormones as gh15 like to put it,,
you dont understand yet how much drugs as to do with ones phsyiqe,,NO DRUGS = NO BODYBUILDER,,if a guy like heath go of the drugs for lets say 6-10 months ,,,he is poof back to 200lb of nothingless at 15% and from there on go down the scale
again this is nothing agsint heath or troy ,,its just fact of the sport,,i do think heath will do quite well and weider will push this thing as much as possible because american is to alwwys be prefered on none american as of 2000s ,,its more marketable to push american but if you look good at the situation heath got nothing when it comes to the torso,,take arms out and it is not even top 5 in nationals
-
HE'LL BREAK IN TO THE TOP 5!
Hopefully - judges seem to take a shit on his head at every show.
Maybe he doesn't swallow ???
-

A bit like Flex and Priest. Most prefer the arm dominant look over the opposite, like Yates who was torso dominant. It's more aesthetic in most peoples' eyes.
-
Holy arms Batman! where did they come from?

Totally agree.

GH in your opinion what do you think that troy needs to take to take his game to the next level?
-
Fucking unreal.
Great shape.

:o
i dont see synthol.

that simple huh? make it sound easy
-
GH in your opinion what do you think that troy needs to take to take his game to the next level?
he needs to get in time machine and go back 10 years,,he is just too old if he had same pacjage with 10-20 more pounds he would be sitting as your mr olympia top 5 year round,,the problem is he is just 10 years too old for mr o top competition and at this age to add 10lb of muscle in a year is a very very hard mission especially if you want to keep yuor over all symetry and plesent look because this is his key strength
never the less the guy is PHENOMINAL BODYBUILDER,,alot better than many others who place ahead of him,,sometimes life sucks if you dont suck enough to the right people
-
Troy would have competed well in the '80s. Now he's too small in the overall lineup to do more than be a midrange IFBB pro, & that means he'll have to get by on being the Mr. Nice Guy he reportedly is.
