I'm shocked that some of these guys weigh 202. With some it is obvious, but with others I would put their weight at 220. I guess they have some room to gain some size after weigh-ins so I'm not exactly sure what some of them weigh. They announced this as the 202 so I'm not sure when the IFBB is increasing the weight restriction to 212.

Thanks, MC musclecenter! :)
I guess I was naive to it before, but it is growing increasingly clear to me that many people want to see pictures of ebony mountains of muscle.

LOL!!! Are you saying they are manlets? Wouldn't their muscle mass offset that somewhat?

He looks great! How old is he? I had no idea he could still come in shape like that.

I can't believe he's 202. I know this guys are mostly 5'6 and under, but I still think he looks bigger than 202, as well as others in the contest.

No clue...he`s still a pup copmpared to me,but then most people are!! ;D
He`s gotta` be in his mid 40`s maybe ???

Lou Joseph was huge:
Look at Lou's calves. He has a good look to him.
-
Big midgets. All the way, big midgets. ;)

All of them look great, the photos are not so clear, because it was shooted from right side and not from the front. it is very good if it was shooted from the front, and their muscles will show greater than in the photos. thanks.

Just got off the phone with Henderson. He turned 50 in March! Incredible.

Thanks for the feedback. I will try my best to get better seating in the future and learn my camera better but the best seating is reserved for the magazines so there isn't a lot of choice in the matter.

If a mod can edit the title to include "Finals" as well that would be good, since it is better I post them in here I think than to start a new thread:

I was backstage with these guys. These are not large men, folks. Muscle-large, sure, but their frames and height, no.
Henderson is 50 and continues to look great.

That's very interesting considering how huge they looked on stage. I guess ultimately the scale doesn't lie, and they are all under 202 [although maybe a little more after weigh-ins].

I have been involved in the industry for many years and, let me tell you, a great many pro bodybuilders aren't near as big as they appear on stage. Last night I recall thinking to myself as I stood backstage, Man, these guys are all mini-sized dudes. And I mean no disrespect. But they are quite short and small men. Lots of muscle though, naturally.
Guys around six feet and carrying 240-plus pounds, in shape, they're impressive in person, size-wise.

That's interesting. Ben Pakulski is around 5'9-5'10 and he has so much muscle that even he can look stocky. It looked like he was wearing a pair of Vibram FiveFingers at the expo which made him look shorter, since 5'10 is by no means short in my opinion. I do agree with you that height gives a greater impression of size.

I was a little surprised that Luc Molines and Lou Joseph did not make the top five. I thought they looked great.
