I don't know why guys fuck around and carb load and dehydrate so hard and end up looking worse.  The shape you are in the Sunday before the show is the same package you should bring to the show the following Saturday.  In those pics he looks dry and hard.  I'm curious to see how he looks the day of the show compared to that pic

hes always had a slight distention

EVERY pro does.  certain guys have it worse than others...  but it goes with the territory, and most guys control it well on stage.

The ifbb does not like him because he does not do gay for pay, everyone knows he is looking for a sponsor

Man, he's got so much potential if he could just take that physique into the NY Pro and simply take the water layer out. Wow. But he won't come in ripped enough yet again I'm sure.

Wow. I haven't been this impressed since RC's Unbelievable! I've never seen anything like that before in my life! Ronnie Coleman couldn't even front squat like that, and rockel is like 40 pounds lighter. There is still hope in this; Over-crowded, lack of talent, borderline gay fetish(guys wear costumes, OK), thing we call the IFBB. More Rockel, less Fridge Gutler.

He could have gone much heavier, too.
Imagine the kind of weight he's pushing in the offseason!

What does he way 210-15 ish? He might be able to hit 202 and destroy everyone.

People think he's a dumbass just because his english is far from perfect, but he seems like a very intelligent guy to me.

i met and talked with Ronnie rockel @ the australian pro show this year- he is a quietly spoken person, very humble and v knowledgeable re BB

very obliging to the fans

doesnt look huge in clothes- jsut very dense and solid and thick but when the shirt comes off he looks MASSIVE and ripped, very dense hard muscle

Would love to see him place 2nd at the NY Pro,  No one is beating Kai but Ronny looks awesome

He has too much muscle to make the 202 class.  If his conditioning is right he could be 1 or 2.  Kai is bigger but looks soft for this close.

I loved the way his delts held onto the bar for those front squats.

Even better was when he pulled his pants down to show those massive quads.
Men covered in muscles and oil, wearing nothing more than thongs...

I do love Men's BodyBuilding.

You do realize that those are 15 kg plates and not the 20.4kgs ( 45lbs ) plates Ronnie uses, right?
