its such a joke...the decline is actually hilarious to witness at this point....

This is the show Levrone should have shot for.
Here's my thoughts on KL's prep.
He's 52 & if he's taking less PED's than he did in his
prime how can he expect to be competitive.
To be competitive (if even possible) he's gonna need to
take what the young guys are taking; the down sound being
he's going to have to risk his health to be competitive.
I could see him at a solid 250 but he's going to have to up
the doses to today's standards. I bet he was 225 at the Olympia.
-
Omar Deckard and Lionel Brown? I thought these guys stopped competing! And An Nguyen, he has bee sketchy at best.

The winner...😀

prize money ? 100 dollars and a protein tube ?
-
Sad to hear about John Meadows, since he's known for his conditioning. Maybe he should stick to the 212 class..
-
Crappy lineup. Lookout for Charles Griffen, guy has a damn good physique and getting better.
Agreed. His family have good genetics - check out his brother, Peter...

With their placings they pretty much did stop competing

::) underwhelmed. Everyone else must have been way off.

'Horrible'? Not the best arms but the rest of his physique looks pretty good
-

A bump up five places in the "KLTL" aka "Kidney/Liver Transplant Line".

Good physique and he's smiling versus making a stupid constipated bowels face like Phildo or Roelly. Not (yet?) unreasonable by any standard and the general public would be far more accepting of a well built man such as this.

Meadows got last ?? :-\ :-\

Surprised me as well since he's known for his conditioning. Maybe he should stick to the 212...

All of the pics that I took from prejudging are here on NPC News.. I have a few from the finals, but we did not get out of finals until 11pm, so today is family day.

The top 5-6 were pretty good, then not so much...
Gerald did look good, see other pics, but you cannot compare him to the top 10 at the Olympia, it is a different caliber. Never the less, the battle was with him and Sasan, and it was close at some poses. Dexer Jackson and Chris Cormier were there watching, and they semmed to agree with the results, as did I. They did get it right. I wished Akim would of been more conditioned on stage because he is a big freaky competitor if he can dial it in
As for other sites stealing my pics and putting them on there, I don't mind, but please just give me credit for the pics. I truly hate it when they crop out my name on the pics - that is just wrong.

Big will pix?

seems like there is something in culver city all the freakin time

Will Harris - they are there.
Gotta love Will - good guy, but some amateur competitors looked better than him... his routine at night did get me laughing, because it was pretty funny... although somewhat embarrassing though.... he knows he wont be top 15, but at least is having fun with it, as a few others too..
(http://seems like there is something in culver city all the freakin time)
The venue in Culver City is a good one.... good music there, good stage, good lighting, room around to park, seats about 1,400 (there is a second floor if needed). Rooms backstage and outside to get ready. They use it for most of the shows in Los Angeles. Culver City is 8 minutes from LAX, 35 minutes from Anaheim, 15 minutes from downtown Los Angeles, 30 minutes from the San Fernando Valley, so it is in a good area too. It is right next to Sony Studios.

No big names, but nice lineup actually.
Second place.

So why did Akim go out east again ????? Didn't seem to help his placings.
-
That fake tan shit has to go. They look like they were dipped in the River Shitz. Even some black guys (like Phildo) seem to be smearing diarrhea all over themselves except for their faces (feces?).
Too lazy to even get a real tan.

Have you've ever been on stage? A real tan won't help you

A few times and yup, my physique was not as good as others but the tan was just fine because it was a real tan. I think fake tan stuff looks like shite, especially when it's over applied.
Nothing would "help" me. I was not as good as others but I still tired, enjoyed it and then realized that I could not compete well enough to warrant doing so. Not the end of the world or training, just competing. ;D

Maybe the tan was good from your perspective, but a deep tan will reveal the muscle definition/separation much better, provided you're in shape ;)
True, not the end of the world but it still sucks after all that work & diet.

He needs to drop some weight, he's coming in too heavy.

Agreed ! And you think someone would tell him that and/or he would know himself !?! :/

This physique compared to this physique. This is where we are now. ::)

Yeah, that's a really valid point. And I'm still not quite sure WHY guys these days look so damn different than guys of yesteryear ( 15 + years ago or so ). IF I had to guess ... IF ... I would almost say it's due to overdependence of insulin. But I could be wrong. Disgusted, BFG, the old GH15, etc. would be better suited to answer that question, I suppose.

Will Harris soft as butter but his shape is a bit better than previously

Looks great for being 3,000 years old.

Not at all. He looks flat and watery. Look 5 weeks out.
Looks like garbage.

Griffin has put on some size. He could have easily won if he came in in better shape.
