Just checked out Levrone's instagram and it seems that Kevin uploaded a new pic of himself. If this is a new pic, he looks like he weighs 175 pounds with big arms.

Yet here are a couple of new videos he posted too, so maybe that pic isn't new.

Great shape for his age. Other than that... 90% hype.
Without drugs he wouldn't be able to bench 405 for 1 rep.
If he keeps it up, he's going to get hurt.

Without drugs, he couldn't bench 315 for 1 rep

Without drugs, he wouldn't be able to bench nor would Mel Tormé star in "Top Secret".

Hope that's not recent...

Legions of men on more drugs than him bench less than him.
-

If it is recent he's definitely not competing in May like he said he would, unless he plans to compete in the fitness competition.
-
NO chance to be competetive
Rackpulls with 405..
Meanwhile young up and comers Mcgarver is Deadlifting 8+plates...
-
and why does he incist on using 3 spotters for 315 ::)
just squat in the squat rack with safetybars....
-
He looks good, he is still extremely lean. From where he is coming from in January right now, as far as upper body, you would have to assume he can be old Kevin in the upper body, but it looks as though his legs are really his focus, currently.
He said 9 months quite a bit lately and I think he meant starting at the start of this year so you have to assume that that means olympia.
-

Yeah.. and the current Mr Olympia.. what, six times, continues to cash cheques as a result of his extensive tours around the gym machines, doing uninspiring weights.
Go figure ???

There is still the issue of him having to qualify....I doubt they will gift him a special invite after last years showing.

These are his schmoetters, not his spotters.

Slim chance he qualifies. I can't see him beating anyone in the top 12.
-
He should be invited to pose at this years Olympia. No way he's going to legitimately qualify to get on state.
-
He hasn't improved or gained any size since the Olympia
4 months looks no different

And dallas has a shitty back this is bodybuilding not powerlifting, deadlifting is great for size but size is not dallas problem his back lacks detail, at this point he would be better off using machines to focus on detail in his back.
-

If anything, he looks much smaller than he did in September. He should have pulled a Dorian Yates and gone into hiding until the day of the show. That's why they used to call Dorian "The Shadow".
-
I think he is trying to ride the extra attention for as long as he can to pocket more supp sales. He has no real intention to be competitive anymore. You could see it in his eyes leading up to the olympia. Plus kev isnt the sharpest tool in the shed. He isnt good at hiding his intentions.

Of course they will.
You're forgetting the IFBB isn't a strict athletic federation, it's basically a somewhat corrupt business.

Yeah, I don't blame you for not understanding this - because he says so many contradictory things (like the latest IG post where he claims the workout is the first time he has trained shoulders since olympia) - but I don't think Kevin started his new "transformation" until the start of this year. There was no way with the amount of touring that he was going to get larger during that time. He basically was on the road the whole time after the olympia.
It's actually interesting to me that he kept so much muscle.
-

Maybe he's showing all leg training because of his pec tear before the Olympia. First he makes sure he has the "all clear" from dr's before the Olympia training, then says he has nagging knee issues that kept him from squatting, and then a pec tear that kept him from benching. ::)
I can't keep up with all the bs and don't get the hype. He said if he was not healthy he would not keep bodybuilding.

Yeah, well, with no respect, what you think is utter fucking horseshit. I think you are the person who is not the sharpest tool in the shed if you believe that piece of morose speculation.
So many people on this site read so much into so little. Reading in his eyes before the olympia that he doesn't want to be competitive ::)
Every day, pre olympia he can see his legs are small and he has a (mild?) torn pec, so how you read that he doesn't want to be competitive from "this is not going to be a very good showing for me", I don't know. You might be the world's most foremost eye reader.
Moving on from the olympia, the dude resolves to stay on the gas and give it another show, continues to work out and push himself to get better, barely pimping his supplements in the process and that isn't enough for some people. They still call him out as not meaning it. They still think it's all for money.

While I really would have liked to see him bring up his legs and add more thickness to his upper body for 2017, I think the writing is on the wall. He looks to be max 200 pounds and that's being generous. Last year at this time he was huge (he got smaller after his injury). I sadly don't think he'll ever step onstage again unless it's for a guest pose.
-
Of course they will.

I fully agree with this. If he wants compete, he will most certainly be invited. His name alone with generate an inordinate amount of interest and in turn, revenue into the pockets of the promotion. That said, I don't think he'll be back onstage again. The fire is out imo. Last year at this time he had size and was hungry and gave a ton of updates and new pics and vids with his progress. He looks like a man who weighs 180 pounds today soaking wet with big arms. If he wants to compete in September, he needs to start putting the pedal to the metal to have even a remote chance of cracking the top 10 (of which he won't).

Just thought to add. There are tons of gyms all over the world he can use while touring. Just look at the pro wrestlers who stay large year round when on the road. When they come to town for a show they go to the local gym, be it the YMCA or wherever and work out before the show. My local gym used to be flooded by the guys from the WWE when they'd come to town for a show (The Undertaker, Kane, Stone Cold, Triple H, etc). If Kevin wanted to do this, he could, so touring around isn't a reason for him not to stick to his regiment of dieting and working out.
-
Maybe lowered the dose, looks like lost a lot of size...
-
he never was one to stay on between shows, he always slimmed right down.

Of course they will.

Can't see it happening....it would be a complete slap in the face to all the other pros that need to qualify. The first time was understandable, but after last year I think there would be a lot of upset people if they did it again.
-
It's my understanding and I could be wrong that Kevin has not trained upper body much if at all since that Olympia. All he has been doing is legs. I believe he is just now starting on upper body work full force.

I don't think the organization cares about what the other competitors think, if Kevin brings revenue and fans will buy tickets to watch him so be it, money comes first

Fully agree. The organization couldn't care less about what the competitors deem as being fair or unfair. They are running a business and Kevin will put asses in seats and people will tune in. He's a cash cow for them. They won't pass up that opportunity if HE is willing to play.

It's weird because Kevin was already pretty jacked up in the upper body already in November (or earlier) of 2015 for the September 2016 Mr. O competition. Unfortunately he lost a ton of that size sometime in the summer before the actual show. Now, in February 2017 he looks like he doesn't even train his upper body. How the fuck can he expect to gain that much size by September at 52 years old? He should have been seriously training since last September (a full year). He's not in his 20's or 30's anymore. It's almost arrogant of him to expect to start training end of Winter or early Spring for a summer event where he placed LAST only the year before. Where's the fire under his ass. His will to win just isn't there. He's just thinking about his supplement company and is stringing along his fans along the way, the same way he's been doing since 2008.
-

On his latest Instagram vid where he is doing smith machine presses he says he hasn't done shoulders since the O, don't know about arms, chest or back though

Nah, I was talking about steroids. Of course he can work out during the time on tour. It would be difficult to stay on the gas hardcore. Some places would be good, others would suck.

I'll tell you what is arrogant.
Arrogance is du nce c u n ts like you who see the worst in everything and conjure up theories of evil Kevin only wanting people's money, based on no fucking evidence.
All he does at the moment is train and take a few instagram photos/vids of himself training. It was the same when he was training last year. I do not understand how people can think that is being obsessed with only money and that being the only reason he does it. It is such a half wit, pessimistic, bag-everything to make yourself feel better about your own inadequacies mindset. Where is the proof? fucking nothing. I have started to wonder if the type of people who think dickhead things like this with no evidence are people who have no actual appreciation of lifting weights themselves. People who can't actually recognise someone enjoying their milestones and sharing them with their followers, instead only seeing it as some kind of drip feeding the audience.
I'm all ears to know exactly what sort of contact with the rest of the human race is permitted by the likes of you - that suffices to reassure you that it isn't all some sort of money grab exercise with absolutely no enjoyment of the process involved.
My working theory is that you're all fucking stupid. Stupid people manifest theories with no evidence.
-
I think kevin proved his point in the last mro and should be happy he got that far ,why risk anything else in trying to get his lower body even close to his last form in early 2000's ..keep a upperbody build at 220 or so for rest of his lifting life at least..
-
Ok guys according to kevin the reason why his upper body looks small is because he was only training legs for the last few months, his upper body grows very fast so he stopped training it to focus on legs, his legs has increased in size so now he is going to focus on back, he actually has a gameplan and he might shock a few people this year.

Will be interesting to see if it made a difference.

and you think thats a acceptable reason.
He can hit his entire boy every week, are you suggesting its a good idea to train legs every day and leave the upper body alone.

Its actually a good idea and will allow his legs to catch up to the rest of his body, looking at his olympia pictures the two problems was legs and back, so bring those up and he will be competitive.

No it wont, if he allows his upper body to match his legs he will be taking a shower with his clothes on never mind stepping on a bodybuilding stage.

I dont understand why you would think this, if kevin was training hard for the last 6 years then I would say there is no way he can bring up his legs any further, but remember that he is coming off a break and he had serious tendinitis in his legs so he was unable to train them, now that he fixed that problem and he is training legs heavy again he should see some results.

He can't naturally sustain a 220ish pound physique year round. Maybe 205-210 at best. At times he has looked as low as 170 pounds at 5'9". To think he claimed to be in his 240's for last years Mr. O is a joke.
-
You can see a noticeable difference in his legs in recent posts. His upper body still responds easily. I think it is a good idea to bring the legs up first. He can also heal his pec tear this way.
-

Yeah but he also needed to add thickness to his upper body last year as well. His upper body was also lacking that previous thickness and size he used to have. His pecs were deflated and his back/lats were smaller as well. He needed to do 1 year of overall body weights from last September to this September to stand a chance at being taken seriously again.

He didn't have tendinitis in his legs. He had issues only with the tendons in his LEFT knee. The real issue has been and is his BACK. He fucked it up in 1999/2000 and that is why he lost a lot of his size back then. Training partners of his back then have come out and said that Kevin used to be doubled over in pain during training sessions back then between sets because of his back injury. I'm sure with age that has only gotten worse.

He also has had a tricep tear and has fucked up his back big time and I'm sure his knee isn't 100% yet either.

He said that he purposely held back on upper body size last year because his legs were so far behind his upper body that if he had come in the olympia with a bigger upper body then his legs would have looked even more ridiculous.

Levrone says a lot of things that simply aren't true. He said in an interview prior to the Olympia that he hadn't touched a weight in 13 years, prior to his comeback, which was horseshit. He also said his waist was 30", and a week before the Olympia he was telling people everything was on schedule and going as planned, and that he was ready to shock the world... Sha-boom!

Are you telling me bodybuilders all lie all the time about almost everything? This is very shocking I am so very surprised. ::)

If Kevin would have stayed on full bore after the Olympia people would have said how stupid he is to risk his health. Instead he lowered down to minimum and stopped training his upper body so he could concentrate on his legs. Kevin upper body minus his back was pretty close to his 2001? showing so I don't think it really matters that he stops training his upper body for a few months. If he's going to enter the Olympia he's got more than enough time to not only gain back upper body mass but even more. Kevin mentioned in a video that he was going to hire a nutritionist. He sure as hell knows how to diet so I'm guessing he going to do what the rest are doing today and needs some insight. He just started training upper body so I'm looking to see him pretty large by mid summer. I don't think that he even came close to how big he can still get.
-
i'm afraid he's going to get hurt or worse, i don't want him to compete anymore
i almost cried when he came out for the prejudging, it was like running into some beautiful girl from 20 years ago and now she's old and fat, except in his case he's shrunken and skin looks worn out
the guys that compete today couldn't hold his jock in his prime, he has nothing more to prove there's no shame in getting old and letting the past speak for itself

I posted some comparison pics from 2002 when he was smaller, and his upper body was basically the same as this year. Seriously, this 2002 GP showing is basically exactly how Kevin COULD look if he managed to figure his legs out.

that won't be good enough to compete at the olympia today

I definitely won't argue with that. Small steps.

OK yeah and I was off by a year. Let's be honest, drugs are what will get him there. Not so much dose but what he would use. He's human like all the rest well maybe not ;D but I will say again Kevin get freaky big if he would just do what the rest are doing. Kevin is old school and he certainly was not equipped to deal with todays guys when it comes to supps. At least if he was armed with the same weapons win or lose at least he played the same game.

He's also going to be 53 come Olympia time!!! In 2002/2003 he was 38/39, and that was on the decline, big difference
Let's be real here, no top 10 placing what so ever, last once again
His time has passed sadly

I also don't like how he trains, too damn heavy for his age. Lets hope he gets a little smarter and lightens up like the current Mr O. ;)

Last is fine. May be wishful thinking but I'd love to see him come in with bigger legs and back. All else being the same it's a win. I would NOT have watched this year if it weren't for Kevin.

Makes sense, but his upper body is nowhere at the moment. He has decent arms, but aside from that it doesn't look like he even lifts weight. I'd like to see him blow up in the next 1-2 months. The guy needs to put on a good 40-50 pounds overall.
-
YOU SAW THACUTLER VIDEO HE SAID THEY ALL LIE ,,ABOUT THERE WEIGHT/HEIGHT,WHAT THEY EAT ECT,,,,
I don't think Kevin lied about his height or weight in the 90's. When he weighed 225, he said so. When he weighed 240, he said so. When he was 250, he said so and he looked every bit of it. He started lying about his weight in the early 2000's and clearly lied about his weight last year. The guy was 205-210 at best the day of (he had 0 lower body and his upper body was smaller than in the past), not 240 something.

He sure as hell knows how to diet so I'm guessing he going to do what the rest are doing today and needs some insight. He just started training upper body so I'm looking to see him pretty large by mid summer. I don't think that he even came close to how big he can still get.
It was close to his 2002 showing, not 2001. The thing is, Kevin's upper body was as large as it was onstage last September after he had been building it up since October/November of 2015. We're already February and he hasn't even started bulking up yet. What does that say? His upper body will be even smaller than it was last year, maybe resembling his 2003 size/shape or worse.

Without drugs GetBig wouldn't exist so let's drop the charade!

Kevin have contact with Chris Cormier...Chris works in O2 gym. Chris should know what the freaks are on nowdays. KEvin will have the same stack!
Lets see what happens! He will probably look better than 2016. And thats a win...some poses will probably look great, but back legs and arm (double biceps will make him look small)
His arms look great from side/front, but in double biceps they look small...how is that???!!!
I would personaly advice him to come in fuller/bigger, and not try to overdiet. Better full than overdiet (and miss the condition) and look flat n small...

If Kevin would have stayed on full bore after the Olympia people would have said how stupid he is to risk his health. Instead he lowered down to minimum and stopped training his upper body so he could concentrate on his legs.

Despite you knowing far more what you're talking about than anybody else in this thread, your regular reality checks rarely seem to permeate the conspiracy theorists.
Off topic to this thread, 3 months ago you told me to do no cardio whilst dieting and I followed the advice - the first time I've ever done that and I'm now 10kg lighter - so have a digital high five. Honestly, I know it is odd - but I have never dared to diet without cardio before, I always thought it was sub optimal but I'm guessing I would be a hell of a lot weaker right now, had I not seen you mentioning it in a thread.

Damn 10kg that's a lot good for you. What most people don't realize is that if Kevin lost any size from not training after the O till now he will get that back in a month then from there on he will be able to get some serious size on. The fact the he is 52 doesn't bother me as much as most. We will never see Kevin again at his prime but we can see another version of him and one that can still shock people. If Kevin would have started out in this era he would have never looked the way he did back in the 90's. He would have been more of an insulin GH freak like all the rest of these guys today, much bigger but just not as grainy and dense more of a bloofy look, sorry. ;D

Can't wait to see what he looks like with a full year of training under his belt!

But that's not going to happen. Kevin clearly stopped working out after last years Mr. O. This years Mr. 0 is 7 months away. Looks like he'll only start to get serious maybe 3 months out. Now, for the 2016 Mr. O he DID train for almost a full year (at least his upper body), but then seemed to downsize a few months out and came in depleted. The guy should have just done higher reps/lower weight for his upper body since September, while blitzing his legs until they get to a point where he then goes heavy with his upper body. As it currently looks, the guy seems to be 180 pounds MAX.
Last year at this time (February 2016) he was walking around at 250 pounds (or at least 240 something).

He should lower the dosage, grow his hair and head back to Hollywood ....
