I got ragged on by Che and others for doing Tampa way out of shape last yr. I promised GB I'd redeem myself being that I kind of represent us as one of the few pros that been posting here for awhile. Wasn't 100%, wasn't happy with 13th & holding too much water. Will be 100% next time. Here are pics, this is GB so let the hate begin :-*
-
Very respectable.

great structure! looks like you could hold a ton more mass. and respect for subjecting yourself to this site ;)
-
Good build. Balanced and dense where it counts (no homo).
-
Very good -- Those that will hate are only jealous.
Good to have you on here.
What height & weight are you.
Do you do your own contest Prep.
-
See what the difference is when you come in shape? As someone said you have a good structure and look like you can hold more weight (although, refinement would be better).
-
Gonna need to know your stack and session rate.
-
Was about to tear you apart but you don't look too bad. Not very wide but neither is phil Heath.
-
Superior Hebrew Genetics.

Do you have an actual job other than bodybuilding?
Yes!! bodybuilding's never been my job, it's my hobby. will always be my hobby but plan on placing in the money later this season.
Very respectable.
thanks

I've been here quite awhile. I just don't post a lot. I've gotten into it with the great Squadfather, the not so great Special Ed, and the likes, I'm very familiar with GB
Thanks NA. ILLUMINATI, I'm 5,11, 251 in those pics.
What's up Parker. I agree, I think I can do both though. Refinement & size as long as I take it slow.
Gonna need to know your stack and session rate.
stack, I'm natural like Skip, Lockett, etc ;)
Was about to tear you apart but you don't look too bad. Not very wide but neither is phil Heath.
Lol, I'm actually very wide. It doesn't look that way because of the angle of the pics.

Top legs, great calves for a hebrew..... I think you condition is pretty good, glad to have you posting here

Superior Hebrew Genetics.

Thanks, that was the night show so i was a little tighter than prejudging. Was holding too much water at prejudging
-
U look great rudy....good hebrew genetics......easy to maintain with little gear. Lol jk out of curiousity, u think roelly and victor deserved their placing??
-
hey rudy
do u still train @ Bev francis' gym and with the firefighter guy Rodney, forget his surname
I remember you guys training in a Battle for Olympia video a while back
you wore a University of something T shirt and glasses in that video

lol. Thanks. Onstage you actually have the worse angle so a competitor might not be the best to ask that Q. Rolley was so thick it's easy to see why he place 2nd. Vic is a friend of mine & I really like the guy so I'm not sure I'm being the most objective but I think he did. I didn't get to see Max from my angle but I though he got robbed at the Arnold, he should've been 4th. Kulco & the kid that took 7th I though we're very impressive.

Damn!! You going way back. Believe it or not I've never train at Bev's gym. That was my only time there For that video I think I'm '04.

yes i have to hate and be jealous....i got stuck with mexican genetics....hard to maintain with a shit load of gear....
-
You need more mass in the lats. The thong stuffing is also disappointing. Would not hit.
Overall a very good look though. Not dry enough to win serious prizes, but overall a much better, healthier look.
-
Do you think the Earth is flat or a globe?
-
Any chance of getting a sneak peak at your drug protocol?
-
Nice size and symmetry Bro, less water would have put you in Top 10.
your brother in Christ,
Lucky
-
Very good structure & potential.
add more size on low lats & tape it down, then will be perfect.
Good luck!
-
Hell yea Rudy , great Job !!
good luck in your pro pursuits

It must be an honor to do the NY Pro, always good to see competitors posting here :)
You've got a great overall structure and a good stage presence.
Work on your mid back and your overall conditioning and you will place better next time, best of luck!
-
No hate here; I wish I looked half that good. Bay approved! 8)
-
A modern day Chris Cormier in the making? At 5'11 251, it means he could be 270 shredded and dominate.
-
Great look Rudy....
Don't take anything personal as 90% of the people on here don't know the difference between a dumbell and a door knob..

it was an honor. This was the 1st pro show in went to back in '91 when Dorian, 92 with Levrone. Always wanted to be on that stage.
Thanks for those pics Royalty, haven't seen them before.
Thanks Bay

Why is a genuinely good bodybuilder posting on Getbig?!
-
Back is as flat as Wigg's 2nd favorite planet.

Rudy, these pics were taken about 10 years apart. What kind of gains do you still expect to make, and do you think they will be enough to propel you to the upper echelons of the sport?
Best of luck.
thats an excellent point/question. We will see, all I can do is try. I believe I can, nothing wrong with trying though.
Back is as flat as Wigg's 2nd favorite planet.
you're right. I said I wasn't happy with everything.
Why is a genuinely good bodybuilder posting on Getbig?!
A lot more bb'ers should post here, they just need thicker skin, not literally ofcourse, that doesn't look good onstage lol. Not everyone's gonna love your look or kiss your ass, that's why I like GB & post here. There are a lot of a**holes here but you'll get the truth instead of a jerk fest of ppl telling u how good you are.

Yes! ( great job Rudy) ... Even getting your props on Getbig ( life is good)
Daamn, you know when Big Mikey A comes out of hibernation, shit is on. ;D

You look great dude, props...

What do you have planned for the rest of the season? Congrats on kicking it off at a stacked NYP!
-

x2..hams and quads have some nice density/seperation,conditioning is what it comes down too with that size in pros.rudy is cool dude here and heck of a build.
-
Good physique! Very balanced and aesthetic. I wouldn't try to get any heavier at this point, you're sporting a good classic look right now.
-
Superb legs/calves combo
-
Great physique -- Maybe a bit more overall back thickness would help.
Easier said than done at that level & after many years of training.
Very classic physique & at 5'11 & 250 certainly big enough.
Surprised not placed higher.

you're absolutely right about the back thickness. Not easy at this stage after many yrs of training but I'm gonna try. Those are the finals pic, I was a little tighter than prejudging why I think I didn't place higher.

thank you

Finally a Hebrew getbigger who actually has the mythical superior Hebrew genetics, a refreshing change from the usual wiggs/goodrum shite.
In all seriousness looking good man, and nice to see a pro down to earth enough to take this place with a pinch of salt
-

I agree with this. Just depends on what you're going for, though.

Do you like PlayStation's?

How are you doing back training?
What exercises & how often.
Understand if you don't want to discuss.
As you don't know me.
Good physique -- Like to see you placing Higher.
Would be a step in Right direction for Bodybuilding.

it's a subjective sport, gotta be able to take criticism here or wherever.

nothing wrong with those questions. I do back every 5th day. I'd like to do more deadlifts but I have a sciatica that acts up around my 2nd or 3rd set. I focus more on T-bar, wide & close grip pull downs, one arm or barbell arm rows & throw cable rows & various machines in about 10% of the times for variety.

Thanks for replying.
A few ideas--
Maybe do a heavy workout poundage wise & rest a little longer extra day or so then a lighter day
Rest 4/5 days.
Are you able to do / or are doing Deadlift off blocks or in a power rack.
Not strictly bodybuilding exercises -- some power cleans / hang cleans.
As we stated it's tough improving a physique after a good few years at it.
-
I use a power rack for deads all the way to the floor. I did power lifting when I started but not much in awhile. Definitely food for thought. Good suggestions, I appreciate it & will incorporate them in my routine. One good thing about getting inshape is it makes it easier to see your flaws. More back thickness will be a priority in my training.

Doing the deadlifts in racks from just below or just above the knees
Clearly allows for heavier weight to be used.
Again maybe try doing them in a round back style with a shrug type
Motion at the top.

i know Dorian was a big fan of those. I've never tried them that way. Genuine & excellent advice, I appreciate your feedback on this. I'll def give it a shot.

What the hell are you talking about, as a natural I don't do anything ;). But if I did I'd probably do TRT then a few months off. Hypothetically speaking ofcourse :)
