I watched his docu on youtube, guy was a headcase. Very negative thinker, which seems to be a symptom of the bodybuilding cocktail.

Great arms on him, some of the best ever.

Seriously... fantastic calves for a black guy.

But where are his quads? They look smooth as a baby's :)

That bodypart is totally at odds with the overall physique, looks as if it doesn't belong there.

1983 was not Fox`s best condition.

I have no clue which years he has looked better off the top of my head,but I`ve seen plenty of pics where his conditioning is far better than at the 83 Mr. O.

They are weird but they give you a massive pump, when you contract and squeeze at the top of the movement the forearms receive alot of the work. Not conventional but very effective.

He got freaky huge in the mid-late 1980s but by then he had trash-mouthed the judges so much that he received very mediocre placings, as a result his promotion in the magazines dropped

which is why most of the pictures of him are from the late 70s-early 80s

You mean they killed themselves by provoking him, thereby actually using him to commit suicide?
They told him he had a weak back, taunting him repeatedely or something


Maybe his lawyer can use that on appeal..

Yep, he was much better here than at the '83 'O. No quads, zero definition there. Waiting for Arnold nuthuggers to chime in and say that it should be that way, that legs should be smaller than the upper body, etc.....Hope they never get to teach biomechanics to anyone.

Post by: panicwide on January 12, 2012, 07:17:51 AM
The problem with a sport in which contestant placing is based on subjective opinions. I am a huge Dorian Yates fan and was always glad he won, but to be honest there were a couple of Olympias, particularly post bicep injury, that I expected him to place behind 1 or even 2 others. One of which was Shawn Ray, who I was never crazy about.  I have some of the same sentiment toward Bertil Fox. He just seemed to stand out more to me than the others in the line up. My eyes kept being drawn to him. I also could not help but notice that several others, even Haney, who is 1 of my all time favorites, seemed to have skinnier upper arms than I ever remember them having.

Quite True..here is the transcript of that fatal event.

Bertil: Everyone knows I am the uncrowned 83 Mr. Olympia.

Bertil's Girlfriend: Hahahahaha. You sucked ! You got beat by that 150 pound Egyptian, Makkawy.. The lebanese guy only weighed a buck 80, and even Zane, who was flat as a pancake that year..kicked your Gorilla ass.

Bertil's Girfriends Mom: You were 5th place that year, you dumb simian. You were holding more water than the Hoover Dam. hahahahaha

Bertil: Stop laughing you stupid bitches...or I'll...

Bertil's Girlfriend: Hahahaha or you'll what...lauch into your pathetic clumsy posing routine...or you'll cry to the heavens about the judging injustice...

Bertil: I'm the biggest bodybuilder out there you mouthy whore...

Bertil's Girlfriends Mom: Hahahaha. Sergio Oliva made you look like a Tiny Tit when he destroyed you in 81.

Bertil: AAAAAAAAAAAAAghhhh   (Pulls out gun and empties it into both mouth whore)

Bertil had a great Physique in Certain years and arguably some of the best arms of the era, however  imo he lacked width in the back Mandatory's when compared to others, good thickness, lacked width @ the Top tier Competitions.

That had alot to do with his ego and paying more attention to what he saw in the mirror instead of what he needed to work on ie back and legs. he still had one badazz build though

Also, I think training as well. You can't train legs and back like that haphazard teaming that he did for arms and chest.
