Damn. Mofo looks pretty sick for a 52 year old. Give him another full year of intense training and he'd actually be a threat to cracking the top 6.

Dan serious question was it his goal to look good for a 52 year old?  Because as a competitor he's always looked good whatever his age was.

You don't hear people talking about how "good" Jordan would be in the NBA today at 52, or Bonds or Elway respectively.

Yeah he looks good, but he's flex wheeler  so  the standard is high .

Bullshit what? How can he look horrible covered up? He looked like nothing covered up be he was covered up.  Someone who is truly ripped won't look big especially at 210. He will look awesome on stage and I'll predict a win or at least 2nd.

Look at the thread I posted about him a week or two ago, you couldn't tell he had any must underneath, plus he was using baby weights because that's all his kidneys can handle

Well no offense you were obviously wrong. He didn't build all that in a week. His kidneys haven't a clue what weights he is using. He did at minimum what he had to do to get back enough muscle to compete in the classic division. From what I seen of his diet he ate a very healthy one. A lot of guys in here could learn a thing or two from him.

Wow, well we finally see his legs. His quads and hams are pretty separated and hard despite being wayyy smaller than before.

Calves look to be completely gone. Oh well.

Back width wasn't great back in 99 or 02 or whenever, but worse now.

I'm curious what he's gonna do about all that water he's holding. Dude looks super watery and was known for holding a shit ton of water back in the day. Curious how his body holds up with the diuretics and "harder" drugs like Halotestin.

You really think he can win the classic division against breon, bumfuckstead, Hester, arash, etc?

He looks pretty good I must say by himself but line them up and we shall see

Everyone was saying how good Kevin looked leading up to the O last year then what happened when he stood in the line up

Anyone who professionally competes in bodybuilding on an ongoing basis is mentally ill; and, they probably have enough since neither one has a regular job, but they miss the adrenaline rush and ego trip of having several hundred people gawking at them on stage and recording them with their meep machines to upload to social media later.

Shawn Ray actually did make a personal comeback in the mid-2000s; it was a video feature of him going to the doctor, getting poor results on blood panels drawn recently, and slowly getting himself back into sixpack shape. I'll try to find it later on. But then again that was 10+ years ago so he may have backslid.

Found it

I still can't do it. I guess when nothing matters and you have no dignity left because your main revenue source went offline, you'll do anythin to survive. Still, he worked at a gas station, so he didn't have that excuse available. He was just a deviant and far from broke considering the cycles he ran after hanging up the thong.

Agreed.  I also didn't like his penchant for backstabbing and intentionally giving bad advice only to laugh behind the poor saps' backs.  He was also known for his tall tales; e.g., lying about (and later sidestepping) horrific synthol abuse, and that ridiculous excuse he offered for benching less than fucking Genova at that stupid Muscletech v. Weider 225 for rep bench contest.  (In fairness, Nasser did 15 perfect, slow reps with total ease.  It was clear he could've kept on going, but he just quit, then told the commentator he wasn't used to high reps, y'know, seeing as how he was "used to WORKING with about 600 POUNDS.". Yeah, Nasser...Fortress on here saw you train, struggling like a bitch to incline 315 for a few whilst weighing about the same.  WEAK for a man as fuck-off huge as he was.)

Haha, that's why this board is a trove of insider info you won't necessarily find anywhere. I'd never heard of that bench press contest or that he knew Genova.

I remember at one expo him telling some skinny hardgainer to "eat more Mcdonalds" if he wanted to bulk up for a show. Totally horrible advice in training AND dieting. Then again maybe he believed his own stories because:

Aside:  it looks like your "sunken treasure" chest filled out.  Given that you have always been a pretty good bencher, particularly for your weight, I was a bit surprised to see you complain so about your pecs a few years back.  Then I saw you train :D. LOL.  Form, form, form.  You were rebounding the bar quicker than Robin Meade and Kate Mulgrew could tag-smoke a carton of Marlboros.  I reckon you introduced some paused benching?

I must confess, I'm a bit surprised too.  I think Palumbo said he saw and was very impressed by Flex's wheels awhile back, but after Dave's bullshit about Kevin Overblowne last year, I took that with a kiloton of salt.  Hmph.  Guess Dave was right.  We'll see how the dude looks onstage...

makes zero difference to your body composition what you eat, as long as you get some protein in for muscle gain you can eat whatever you like, excel cals on a bull, reduce cals on a cut, its that simple.

I imagine it makes a big difference to your lipid profile and BP what your sodium and saturated fat intake is, not to mention sugar

times are a changing, flexible dieting is the way forward.
Sure, eat some high quality protein carbs and fats but add in something you like as well.

4 meals of chicken and rice is no better for you than three chicken and rice and a Big Mac if your calories are the same.

Bullshit what? How can he look horrible covered up? He looked like nothing covered up be he was covered up.  Someone who is truly ripped won't look big especially at 210. He will look awesome on stage and I'll predict a win or at least 2nd.

According to the IFBB rules for the classic physique, if you are between 5'8" and 5'9" (Flex is stating that he is 5'9" for this competition) that you cannot be over 195 pounds for that height in this division of the classic physique, so Flex will show up at MAXIMUM 195 pounds for the competition.

Flex doesn't look very good.

Sure, he's put on muscle, but the whole package looks shitty. For his age he looks quite good, but then again, a boatload of guys his age could and do look every bit as good, and better, than Wheeler.

It's called drugs and above-average genetics.

(Concerning his hams, a couple posters suggest he's oiled them. Dumb. They appear as they always did.)

I honestly think very few here have eyes for bodybuilding. Wheeler really doesn't look anywhere near top-flight status.

you can go up and down an inch by flaring your legs out and bending your knees slightly.

NABBA used to be 5'10 for tall class, so if you were 5'10 bang on you could do the class below just by crunching down a little, I imagine Flex is able to do the same.

He attended all of his sons college football games, lost over 30lbs of fat and improved ALL of his blood health markers on each of his last 4 blood tests prompting his kidney specialist to ask him how he did it (Hint: Lose 30lbs of fat, fixes just about everything!!). And he maintained an aggressive international travel schedule for BlackSkull while staying on his meal prep. .
▶️He's created a sustainable healthy balanced lifestyle at a much lighter body weight (Competing at 210lbs), eating much healthier and training much smarter to avoid injury. "Stimulate, don't annihilate" he always told me (In one ear ... that's why I'm always mending an injury!!)

Looking great and trains much more sensibly than Levrone.

But like Levrone he's coming in super conditioned (respect for that) but like Levrone it will be at the expense of some muscle.

I've heard him mention at least 4 times in videos he has to be 210
and then correlated that to him weighing 214 at the 93 ASC.
195 would probably end his kidney.
Flex & Kevin both are pretty lose with the facts I've noticed.
He told so many tall tales to sensationalize that book.
Recently, He said his best ever was the Grand Prix after the 1999
Olympia.
1. He said Ronnie told him that Flex should have beat him.
2. That he weighed 256...don't believe it.
3. Then he said his glutes & hams were all striated at that show.
Video & picture evidence tells otherwise.

One that many talk about where he was probably his most conditioned
and probably a little over 230 was the 98 Arnold.
His shoulders were puffy for the 98 Ironman but it had to be Esciline
because they were down and striated by the ASC. McGough, Arnold
and Chad thinks it was his most competitive physique bodybuilding wise.

Here's a buffoon who is riding with one (borrowed) kidney, making a "comeback" many years after the fact, and risking it all only to look a mere shadow of what he once was. Well over two decades past his best.

During his prime, Flex was asked if he'd continue weight training after he retired. He responded he would likely never again set foot in a gym.

Wheeler was never of the iron.

Yates, 20 years past retirement, is living a good life, and here's his nearest competitive combatant re-donning a thong to pose down in some drippy "classic" division.

The ironic thing is that Flex is probably working harder now than he did in his prime.

I reckon all he'd have to do is up the dosage and increase protein by say 150gms a day and he'd be a threat in the BB open. He'd be like levrone last year, only with legs.

Don't think his kidney's would survive the last week of prep for the open though.

They'll give him token top 10. His body doesnt "pop" like the younger guys do, but won't know til he's actually next to them on stage. A guy like Arash might make him look old I think, but good on Flex, I'm curious to see it.

When you actually think about it, free of the hype, chattering, etc., it truly is moronic what Flex is doing.

Here's a buffoon who is riding with one (borrowed) kidney, making a "comeback" many years after the fact, and risking it all only to look a mere shadow of what he once was. Well over two decades past his best.

During his prime, Flex was asked if he'd continue weight training after he retired. He responded he would likely never again set foot in a gym.

Wheeler was never of the iron.

Yates, 20 years past retirement, is living a good life, and here's his nearest competitive combatant re-donning a thong to pose down in some drippy "classic" division.

Hey, get back in the gym, if that's what you wanna do, but stay off the frigging stage.

Just because you were one of the best doesn't mean you are necessarily hardcore.

Flex was NEVER hardcore.

He's a narcissist wingnut.

He's still training in is 50s and looks great. But "Wheeler was never of the iron"?

That makes no sense whatsoever.

Tony Pearson is in his 60s, still training, guest posing, and occasionally competing. But, I guess he's not of the iron, either.

What does Dorian Yates have to do with anything? BTW, Yates donned a "thong" just like Wheeler. But, yet Yates was "hardcore" while Wheeler was/is a narcissist wing nut?

Yet on the other hand, we have people on this site who wish their favorites from the 90s and 2000s to comeback, because they can't stand the current Mr. Olympia, Phil Heath.

2000 ASC. Pretty ripped but still soft glutes...

What's up with the shiny/glossy lighting? He does look pretty good there though.

Think its a fan-shot VHS rip or something.

Damn. Mofo looks pretty sick for a 52 year old. Give him another full year of intense training and he'd actually be a threat to cracking the top 6.

And he'd be back on dialysis.

FFS it's this thinking that keeps landing people 6 feet under.
