Was VERY under-rated -

Met him on the the GP circuit and he was so thickly muscled. Best chest and arms I have ever seen

Actually the guy got very good placings when he hit the pro scene. He just vanished quickly. The fact that he appeared at the time when Bbing was highly competitive didn' t help either?

Big muscles on small joints.  Looked awesome.  He was an advocate of single-leg leg presses.

Whitby.  Used to be a really nice area to live.  I remember a time when the sun shone much brighter on the Durham region.

The first truly huge muscle man I ever saw in person. His size floored me as a teen in west Toronto in the late '80s.

(I actually bought a " ... and on the eighth day God created Nimrod" t-shirt. ;D)

I remember watching him train biceps with one-arm dumbell preacher curls and passing the 60-pound 'bell back and forth between hands, seemingly forever. Set after set like it was nothing. His biceps looking like they'd explode at any moment. Strong.

Like another says, Nimrod had extremely small joints and billowing muscle bellies. Freak.

Very soft spoken guy, too.

Interesting as he claimed to use very light weights and 20-25 reps on everything
