Title: Flex Lewis will not compete in 2010
Post by: 240 is Back on March 29, 2010, 05:09:50 PM
Dan/Bob reporting on PBW.

He was the #2 Bber in the world behind David henry, until kevin English came around. 

Why is he taking all this time off?

its just fucking boring anymore all these bodybuilders taking entire years off.

i think most of the time it is a ploy to keep relevant....see, if you compete, there is a chance you can place poorly and lose value to fans and the people who give supplement contracts.  bodybuilding is the kind of sport where everyone is always lookign for the next big thing, you place poorly in a few contests and your over.

this way, he can stretch out his relevance, and be guaranteed and additional year.  all it takes is a couple bad placings and your fucked

 Or maybe the massive amounts of drugs and hormones they are injecting these days are fucking them up and they need to take a rest from it sometimes?

 Trying to avoid Palumboism and serious health problems?

He looks like a better more polished version of a younger Lee Priest, minus Lee's Arms.

 I don't give a fuck. I don't even know who he is.

 Pro bodybuilding sucks these days. I watch it just like I watch the circus, for laughs and shock value.

Flex can only do the 202, he's stuck...he might as well quite if he thinks that can compete with Phil, Kai, etc.

Why is he taking all this time off?
but seriously how much more mass can the guy pack?

Face it... It doesn't matter how much bigger he gets the taller guys will always be more impressive.

I personally don't think he needsmore mass

but all bb seem to be hell bent on getting bigger


trimming the waist and increasing shoulders is more effective imo

X2

he's not going to accomplish much taking a yr off. So basically there are a few rookies and wet behind ears bbers competing this yr. It seems like the ones that need to compete don't. Lewis can stick to doing Muscle and Fitness article shoots.

Maybe it's because he wants to be No. 1?

Doesn't matter about "taller," guys. He is in the 202 class where all the competitors are either 5'4 or 5'7 max.

Plus what do you mean "taller??" The top guys Heath, Cutler, Dex, Branch, Kai, are all under 5'10

ANd in case you forgot Kai is 5'7 and made Heath and just about everyone small.

Yeah, now here the question. Isn't Lee shorter than Lewis (I believe "Flex" should be reserved for Wheeler)? And if so, would or wouldn't that affect the angle? I still think's Lee's forearms are bigger...

You are correct, Lee is shorter than Lewis. I've met Lewis a couple of years ago at the Europa here in dallas and he looked about 5'6 or so give or take. I was surprised cause I thought he was a lot shorter than that from what I've read, lol.
