His prime was 1996-1997

His downhill slide started in 1998, and it was fast & furious

Squatting nearly 700lbs.... In a power rack that is designed for safety

but, the safety pins were inexplicably absent. No spotters present. (There is a schmoe's hand present in the far left however).

Never trust a man with a mustache. He has something to hide.

I know I should but I never use the safety pins either. I wonder how many people actually do after you have been training for a while?

Fux was a total beast........but his stomach was starting to bulge before the accident, huge distension...

As big a rami is, he isn't as much as an imposing figure, imagine how small the current crop would look next to him

Always squatting outside of the rack with bumperplates you can ditch if required.
But then, I'm only squatting in the low 200kg's.

He was only about a year away from Stage Four palumboism when he had his squat accident so all we missed was him going the way of Kovacs and giving us more material to laugh at.

 agree with the post above, huge distension of his stomach probably 2nd to kavacs, insane hamstrings and back beast



that video of fux and nasser lifting together on youtube is disturbing with them both having monster stomachs, and i am all for the freaks

That's Dave Palumbo^^^^^^^^^^^.

Fux's lats were more cobra shaped like Dorian's.

This was probably Fux's best picture that was taken in his career.

I will concede; and say that it is indeed Dave

But it was in a google image search for JP Fux.

That was his peak, his best ever showing and was unlucky not to make top 6.... Be interesting to see where he'd place now...

Fux was a beast!!! He had the right tools to be Mr. Olympia, but later in his career he sacrificed size for conditioning. What a shame really. He compared very well to Dorian.

Fux was slightly taller too, right?

Post by: Alucard on October 09, 2015, 10:17:35 AM
A true freak and mass monster, probably the thickest back ever seen, compares very well to Yates, slightly taller if i remember correctly... Always overlooked, fairly complete, ruined everything chasing too much size with an horrible distended stomach...
