Title: CORMIER's tricep tear
Post by: Nether Animal on December 03, 2016, 05:59:30 AM
If not for this injury and that spinal problem, I think Cormier had more gas in the tank.

I had no idea Cormier tore a tricep and I'm here all the time and normally pay attention to Cormier stuff, having competed in the same show as him at one point.  I am very worried that this is some Mandela Effect type stuff going on now.

Was Cormier's last contest the Atlantic City Pro, or was it the Montreal Pro?

I recall him being sad he did not win.  But I can't recall whether or not he had that triceps tear when he competed in those contests.  I recall him getting that tear in 2007, I just don't recall what month.  I'm thinking around August, but I could be wrong.

By 2007 he was regressing and done, he was smart to hang it up unlike Ronnie who kept going

That's the problem. As you get older and keep pushing around crazy weights, something's eventually gonna tear.

He tore it in a fall biking with his kid.

Chris was a wild party animal back in the day he went hard in the clubs high on recreational drugs while being one of the top bodybuilders in the world at the same time, I think he could have being mr olympia if he would have trained hard eat and sleep bodybuilding like ronnie and dorian did.

no he wouldn't, he was maxed out and anymore would have fucked up his strength which was balance and symmetry.

Wasn't he exposed to that party scene life because he was a doorman bouncer at the Roxbury along with Rico McClinton?  Did Flex do it also?

All a myth, he trained as hard as anyone could have in the late 90's, early 2000's, Chris wasn't lazy at all, he got screwed in his placings many times esp the Arnold classics

There were a few of us who trained that hard at Main Line Health and Fitness.

It was not uncommon to see one of 3 individuals out in the parking lot in the middle of winter wearing shorts trying to cool down from a Mentzer style session.  Not a schmoe session.
