Definitely on hypertension meds and using a CPAP at night. 

Impressive size, but not sure if I call this "progress" as a whole for the sport...

Who really cares if it's pretty or not?  I for one am interested to see just how far the likes of McCarver and Compton are going to push it.  Brings to mind that old Ironman Edit: Muscular Development magazine comic strip - Max Rep.  I used to read that and think the insane development of his and Quadra-blu's physiques was beyond science - now though, maybe I'm not so sure...

That GH/Roid nose would give Kai or Dex more than a run for the money.  Disgusting.  Why do gorillas have such big nostrils?  Look at their fingers.  Disgusting. Dallas needs to be nicknamed Kong for that nose.  The nosedown should be epic for the nose-festish schmoes.

Mike, how do you think he would compare to a prime Gunter?  Not in terms of conditioning - I think it's pretty obvious that Gunter in 2002 and 2005 surpassed any conditioning we have seen thus far from Dallas - but I mean in terms of raw muscle mass.

He's 320 in the pic I posed with fairly decent conditioning. If he nails his conditioning which was off at the Olympia he should do well at the Arnold.  And yes he dwarfs almost all the pros.

I think that's extremely lean for off-season. Hardly any fat at all. Many competing pros aren't harder 2 weeks out.

IMO it will be hard for Chad or anyone to make Dallas improve much. What can he do? All Dallas can do to improve is be 2% drier on stage or whatever. Otherwise he's pretty much maxed.

It would seem that way.  Let's hope he doesn't do what Greg Kovacs and keep pushing the gear and calories in unnecessarily.  As you said, it's just a matter of gradually refining his conditioning; not much more can be done, if anything.

Oil, spray tan, posing, etc, those small details will help.  Not much more.

For whatever reason, Kai Greene and Big Ramy didn't seem to understand that they were maxed out and focused on size rather than conditioning, as if more muscle was a necessity for them to place higher.  I think when bodybuilders are maxed out, they need people around them who simply explain to them that it's only a matter of gradual refinements in conditioning.

330 lbs and still lean?! Dude is fucking massive. Those calves are insane. I said before his lower back is great he just needs more detail in the upper back. But he certainly has the height and size to completely dominate in BB. I wish him the best it is clear he is training harder than almost all pros. Jay never trained as hard as him. Only guys that I think were on the same level were Dorian and Ronnie and I think Dallas is stronger than both. He certainly has crazy genetics.

Even the conditioning is basically maxed out. There can only be tiny improvements there. People talk about guys like Ramy or Dallas being "off" or not conditioned enough, but these guys are basically as lean as Heath, whatever difference there is has to do with how the skin "sits" on the body genetically. That and tiny differences in hydration levels.

Of course many fans will talk about Dallas improving his back or whatever, how he should bring it up through specialized training. But they are delusional and haven't observed pros attempting to change their symmetry and balance. No one at this level brings anything up except through the use of site injections of whatever.

If he can keep adding and bring up pecs delts and the lats I think he can make top 3 at the O. A has a big career ahead of him.

He wont change his proportions. He's deadlifting 845 for reps or some shit, what more can he do?

Heath can't bring his pecs into proportion, nor his width. All that can be done is site injections which he is doing, as we saw in the delts at the O. Same with Dallas.

The insulin, GH etc can worsen conditioning for sure but if you study pros you can see some of them just look different despite very similar subcutaneous fat levels. And they all do the same things. I think "off" is often the wrong term, even things like stage lights, color can affect look from one comp to the next.

I mean, I wouldn't call this "off" really

Very good points.... Nasser tried for years to bring his back up (more so in terms of detail than size) but never really made much improvement in that area.  I remember watching one of the Battle for the Olympia series and he was talking about how he was training back 3 or 4 times a week so its not like he didnt try or wasnt willing to try new things to bring it up to par with the rest of his body.

As a matter of fact im really struggling to think of a pro who was able to make substantial improvements (witjhout SEO's) to a lagging bodypart.  The only one that comes to mind right now is Sean Ray...his back was a weakness early in his pro career and he did noticeably improve it.  Paul Demayo  did slightly improve his upper/lower body balance... perhaps there are others but it is definitely a rarity to see and advanced bodybuilder change their symmetry and balance.

Dallas has much better flow/symmetry than Gunther.  He is so young that in time, I think his back will be on par with Big Ramy.

Great posts - or maybe I should say, that's also how I see it.

I think it's safe to say that Dallas is ahead of Gunter, when Gunter was the same age.  Dallas may burn out yet though, as a result of that pace.  It will be interesting to see if he can bring his back up.  Ultimately genetics factor in, and there is only so much any person can do.  Maybe the key will be conditioning and posing improvements, to better show the world what he has, flaws included.  I hope Dallas has the right people in his corner giving him the right advice.

I disagree to some extent. Many good examples of people bring up poor parts. I did it myself with both legs and traps to the point they became overpowering. Heath with His back is perhaps the best example of all

You can bring up a weak bodypart if you won't training it properly to begin with. However, if you're doing everything correctly and it still remains weak, then it will almost certainly stay that way.

I doubt Heath made any radical improvements to his back, he just upped the dose and put on size slow and steady.

His back was top-tier pro level in 2006 when he burst on the scene..

Dallas is maxed. His back ain't going to improve, but he keeps coming in off at the O. Look at the pic posted above, that glazed donut look... maybe it has something to do with his skin but he never looks right.

Look at the weights he's competed at since he turned pro. He's not maxed at 6ft and he was pretty shredded at his first O and should have placed in the top ten. He didn't dial it in last year and looked to be holding some water.  He needs to come in shredded at the Arnold and shut up his "haters". :D

I guess because I know these guys want it now, but I think they will regret it later.

How do you think Greg Kovacs enjoyed the last five years of his life?
I couldnt care less, I didnt know him.

Standing relaxed has got to be one of the worst poses he has.

Really accentuates his abdominal oddness (which goes away in MM) and that chest gap

In the Iron Debate show that got posted, Dave Palumbo said that Dallas is bigger than ever lately and he was concerned he may be taking similar risks that Greg Kovacs did.

I fear for Dallas McCarver's health.

Palumbo was 300+ lean himself and claimed to be using 2iu of GH, 6iu of insulin and a little over a gram of roids, practically hrt these days. So why does he think Dallas is taking risks. Unless Palumbo's a stinking lying scambag.

On another forum someone claimed an old schmoe/trainer had Dallas on 400mg of tren a day, 60 injections of synthol a day etc... as an amateur. Who knows if true, but wouldn't surprise me.

The fallout was with recon1 the supplement company that they both were signed to, matt got kicked out so dallas had a choice money or friendship and he choose the money and told matt good bye.
