Title: When did your favorite bodybuilder jump the shark?
Post by: GHGut on March 27, 2008, 04:19:09 PM
Here's an example I just cited in another thread, and I don't expect others to agree with me...

Dennis James. Turned pro. Looked awesome. No way small in any sense of the word. Then started to put on an outrageous amount of muscle that ruined his waist, threw off his lines, and softened the detail in his muscle fiber. That's what I mean and that's it for me.

What do you guys think about other bodybuilders?

I would respectfully disagree with you. Kevin didn't blow out his waist, but as he put on size he lost detail, especially in his thighs over the years, and the shaved head didn't help.

"True dat" but the level of competition went downhill, otherwise the placings would have too.

You're referring to Jay Cutler 2001 Nationals Bantamweight champ Ricky Parks no doubt?
