He naturally is good friends with a endocrinologist who writes him a prescription who naturally gives him access to pharma grade steroids, T3/T4 and god knows what else. He naturally sticks a needle in his butt a few times a week and naturally the result is what you see. Good job. Naturally, he trains also.

They all use more or less the same ..but, in this case, I see a genetic predisposition and a strict dieting taken into very unhealthy territory. No way this peeled without genetic predisposition and very very strict prolonged dieting. The drugs, they all do them .. but few end up this way.

I am not impressed at the level of bodyfat of the gentleman, it's achievable without the drugs.
The surprising is the amount of muscular mass he kept during starvation, that i can not believe.
So to me, he is not natural, maybe using small dose but natural no.

Everyone will look different when their body is devoid of fat. The muscle shape and belly length and even the pattern of striations to a degree is genetic. As far as the extremely low level of body fat this man has achieved well, there's only one way to get that lean and it's really quite simple. Simple as in what needs to be done, but it takes much discipline to get there.

Anyone who is that ripped is not feeling normal no matter what they tell you. As far as holding the conditioning when you are that lean your body fluctuates it's conditioning almost on an hourly basis. It's not healthy to be that lean all the time your body is not functioning properly.

Post by: dave19 on February 21, 2014, 04:23:13 AM
The pros look like "glazed donuts" because they are afraid of losing lean muscle mass while dieting, they don't want to sacrifice size for definition but in order to get THAT lean you will have to sacrifice size..

I know exactly what's going on in their minds because I think the same way every time I diet. First few weeks it's all good and I stick to my diet 100% but after a few weeks of strict dieting with low carbs you will start to feel flat and then there comes the point where I will have a cheat day and I will justify it by calling it a "refeed" to fill up with carbs.. after that it's fine again for some time but the closer you get to really shredded condition the more you will start to feel small and flat and the more often you will add a carb meal to your diet and that will keep you from reaching this ultra ripped level.

Of course genetic does play a role here as well but in general it's all just a matter of strict dieting over a long period of time and on top of that some diuretics for the last bit of water. I'm sure he'd appear a lot bigger if he had like an extra 100gs of carbs per day but would also lose some of his crazy conditioning.

Anyone who is that ripped is not feeling normal no matter what they tell you. As far as holding the conditioning when you are that lean your body fluctuates it's conditioning almost on an hourly basis. It's not healthy to be that lean all the time your body is not functioning properly.

at what level of bodyfat does it start to become unhealthy?

He should breed with fellow natty Dana Linn Bailey. They would have super ripped children with no body fat issues.

The pros look like "glazed donuts" because they are afraid of losing lean muscle mass while dieting, they don't want to sacrifice size for definition but in order to get THAT lean you will have to sacrifice size..

I know exactly what's going on in their minds because I think the same way every time I diet. First few weeks it's all good and I stick to my diet 100% but after a few weeks of strict dieting with low carbs you will start to feel flat and then there comes the point where I will have a cheat day and I will justify it by calling it a "refeed" to fill up with carbs.. after that it's fine again for some time but the closer you get to really shredded condition the more you will start to feel small and flat and the more often you will add a carb meal to your diet and that will keep you from reaching this ultra ripped level.

Of course genetic does play a role here as well but in general it's all just a matter of strict dieting over a long period of time and on top of that some diuretics for the last bit of water. I'm sure he'd appear a lot bigger if he had like an extra 100gs of carbs per day but would also lose some of his crazy conditioning.
BUT as an amateur they did what it took to make a weight class,most lose there lines when they turn pro, the good amateurs .

Well hard to say, First if you are eating an extremely low fat content diet  then that's not healthy no matter what level of fat. I say this because a lot of guys still do diet on very low fat diets. Over time I've seen people hair fall out skin texture become horrible looking hormone levels become imbalanced especially in woman.

This guy is probably around 4.5% or lower. Like I said he's not feeling too great at that level no it's not a healthy level to maintain for long periods of time.

Yep that's correct ... since there are no weight classes in the pro ranks anymore they don't have to make a certain weight class and usually end up 10-15 lbs too heavy in fear of losing size.

Due to fake stats in magazines, the internet, even gym smalltalk[...] every pro seems to have a certain weight in their head that every IFBB pro HAS to be on stage. Now if the scale shows a figure lower than what they think is needed as a pro they will carb up and look bloofy.

Pros put size before condition and you can't really blame them since the judges reward them for that. It's also dangerous and very unhealthy to be below 5-6% bodyfat and especially the dehydrated state. They should simply change the lighting at every pro contest so that it's still bright enough to properly judge the bodies but not like the lighting that is currently used where anything over 6% bodyfat and a healthy amount of water in the body will make you look fat and all the lines are blurry.

Just take a look at the contests in the 70s - the competitors were not absolutely shredded to the bone but still well hydrated yet under the lighting used back then they looked phenomenal and certainly not fat.
