Worlds biggest arms ::)

Just another overblown guy on gear, nothing special. Heavy rock music and a lens filter doesnt make him look any more impressive.

Paulo Almeida is a 100% portuguese name, albeit i never heard of him. Maybe immigrant, maybe brazilian. He looks good.

Here is the thing ... In order to look like a "freak" something extraordinary you have to go to extreme measures (steroids,synthol, growth hormone etc) nobody is claiming
This guy is natural ... So stop pointing out anomalies .. We aren't claiming this guy
Is a natural men's physique competitor! He still
Worked hard/dieted hard and worked his fucking ass off! Yea lol he uses shit/whatever he can!

Boom

Viator legit curling 225 for pretty strict reps.

Seems most bodybuilders have weak biceps today compared to old school guys who based their training philosophies on powerlifting.

Not many bodybuilders these days curl 225 for reps, Coleman is one that would probly make it look pretty easy. More likely to see powerlifters or pro wrestlers lifting that sort of poundage on biceps. Fcking strong.

What does the amount of weight matter these days anyway when you know its drugs,genetics,diet  ::) . I stroke my ego from time to time by curling 185 but is it doing anything for bicep growth? Bodybuilding no?

I don't understand the need to use fake plates in these type of videos.  Poor young kids are impressionable enough.  Why the need to overdo it with fake plates?  I really just don't understand their reasoning unless they are simply appealing to the "low information lifter."

I think he won a Canadian provincial show and highest pacing i believe is 3rd in the Canadian nationals.BIG ARMS BIG DUDE decent potential but his problem competing is conditioning mostly from the back. But once he nails it he will turn pro..

Here's a post of his from another board:

 "Thanks for having me on your show Taylor. I am just gonna post a quik bio of myself that I just did the other day for a magazine to try to answer some questions other members might have I am from Vancouver bc Canada. My nationality is Portuguese. I am 38 years young But feel 28 and am told i look it too!lol. I'm 5'10 and am curently in middle of my Ofdaeason and sittin around 290. My last show in sept 2014 I was 245 and plan on being 5-10 lbs heavier and better in July this year. I started lifting weights in high school when I was14 until 18 but than took a 16 year lay off from the gym cause as I like to say life took me on other journeys. I played soccer for a Cpl years and just swim here n there and maybe do some push ups but nothin really to build muscle. I got bak into the gym April of 2010. I grew pretty fast from there cauae i was always pushing mysef to lift more n more everyday. So I just kept trainin hard cause I loved it and grew really fast (Thts why I got the nickname "the freak") . And the following year in late 2011 my friends convinced me I should do a regional amatuer show. I didn't wanna do it at first but than decided too when it was 4 wks away! I remember it clearly cause it was day after thanksgiving where I ate so much. Lol. So I ddid the show and almsost won. I came a close second and with only 4 wks of prep! After that I decided to try the provincial show (Which would be a state show if I was in the states.) I came third that one because my conditioning wasn't that great. I decided to do the Canadian nationals that year for the experience and came 10 outta 19. The following year I did the same provincial show and came a very close second and again condtion wasn't there again. I tried nationals again and placed 9 this ttime. Size was never a problem for me it was condition. So finally did the provincials in 2014 and finally brought conditioning and won my class and the overall. I'm pretty sure I would have won the first time I did this show if i would have came in condtioned.so than I did the Canadian nationals again in sept of last year 2014 8 wks later and came third. I will be doin the Canadian nationals this year July 15 and trying to get my pro card there ! It's funny cause I never thougt about turning pro till after this last nationals when I seen how I look properly condtioned and I know the package I can bring to the stage and also a lot of good feedback I got from people in the sport. Before that was just a hobby. And Diet wise was never that great before but now it's much better as I've learned a lot over the years. I try to kee it pretty clean in Ofdaeason as im an endomoprh and we can gain fat pretty easy If we dnt eat clean. But I do enjoy myself once in while still and actually have come use to eating clean now. Pre contest it's pretty much ame food just clean it up even more and of course lower carbs weeks until the show and throw in some cardio. Trainin wise I always train intense and to failure and believe in full ROM. I train 5 times a wk Ofdaeason and 6 times precontest. I believe u need 1 day off to let the body rest and ur mind! Nowadays I really try to go for that mind muscle connection. Lifting as much weight as I can while keeping proper form and making sure j can fee the muscle wrkin not just pushing the weight. The best Advice I can give young guys is make sure u use correct form first and dnt wrry the weight ur lifting. The weight will come. too many young guys just put too much weight on exercise and dnt use good form or full ROM. U won't grow efficiently like tht. I just wanna thank all my supporters out there cause without them it's hard to do this sport and if anyone wants to follow my journey in bodybuilding they can follow me on Instagram at paulo_the_freak_almeida. Thx again for having me on such a wonderful show."
