My opinion: He came in much heavier (40 pounds heavier), but he's bloated with really bad conditioning. He was crazy striated in 2016 at 223 pounds. At 263 pounds he's carrying a ton of water. His legs are definitely bigger, but so is everything else and not in a good way. He needed a few more weeks to dial in his conditioning and shed at least 10-15 pounds of water to look really good. SEE, I'm NOT biased. ;)

He was a fair bit worse here than at the Olympia. His back regressed, he has a gut and his conditioning in general is not good. Time has just passed him by as far as being an active competitive bodybuilder goes.
-
Check out Kevin at 255 pounds probably in his best condition at that size.
He's come in that big but not with this condition. He's been more
ripped but it was always at a lighter weight.
Enjoy some rare clips with Flex & Dillet & his posing routine.
I appreciate the views & take a second to Sub if you have a youtube account.

Honestly, if you brought the version from today to the same level of conditioning as 16 there would be a glaring lack of improvement in general.
-
I refuse to believe that there aren't any genetically gifted guys today that could look like those guys. Drugs have ruined the
sport pageant.

He looks incredible. Too bad that version of him couldn't stand onstage at the 2018 Arnold Class or Mr. Olympia. He'd be the winner hands down.

It is not only that. They just don't train as hard as before.
If they trained harder would probably destroy their bodies
becouse of the amounts of stuff they take.
Don't diet as hard.
Arnie and Platz for example would destroyed them head to head in training.
-
damn he did come in a lot bigger.
-
Kevin is in guest posing shape.
Compare the 1996 Arnold classic video to the 2018 version. It’s night and day.
-
good physique for a guest posing.
-
pretty impressive to come in that big at his age.
-
Not sure what Kevin was thinking. He needs to come in much lighter. Legs are bigger but he is holding too much water. His color was also better at the 16 Olympia but then again it could be the lighting because Wolf also has that red look.

This was his guest posing shape in 2016. I like his current look more.

Drug short cuts and which drugs certainly a factor in comparing 80s and 90s versus now. But you point out genetics and I think that’s as big a factor. Guys with pleasing physiques (born with) used to become top bodybuilders. Now generally weirder physiques with some exceptions. This is mainly evident at the level of the top national qualifier events. Why this change in the pipeline?
-
-
unreal...
-
i will give him this much better in terms of size and fullness over last yr,less in terms of trying to be supernlean at this age or point he is at onstage.he has a look that for 53 looks great.but he has larger waist which is normal as one ages legs were bit better as well.props
-
I always question athletes of any sport that retire and try to make a comeback.....
Stay retired and not come back OR make a comeback just to please the fans but only present a shell of your former self.
I loved Kevin back in the day but breaks my heart seeing him like this....can't tell if he spilled over or just needed a few more weeks to dial it in...

i think he wanted to recapture the mass ,,he has been at this 2yrs comeback,training heavy,eating,he laid it all out

He is not fuller, he's fat. Worse from every aspect compared to last time, less muscle, more fat. The year of drugs and training did absolutely nothing. Not a diss on Levrone the person, simply an observation of facts.

Very true. Most people no longer build a solid foundation over time. Instead they turn pro and try to put on 30lbs in their first year.

The roids did work, but not as good as when he was say 25 years young

he looked amazing, but Heath is better

It's like he opted for the Jason Genova contest prep: take random gear, train sporadically in between BSing with ppl and making pointless instagram posts, dirty bulk into the show, come in last, surf the wave of delusions some more.
-
Does anyone have picture of him doing that?
Thats his best poses...I think he did great. Would like to see him doing another year Legs Back twice/week, Arm chest shoulder once/week. Calves abs twice/week. No heavy duty, no hardcore, just strikt contraction high volume...ad ad 5-7 pound and come in more dry next time...I dont know the healthy risk but he can absolutely be better than this...
"Cant post picture on this fucking forum...stupid ass shit! WTF!!!"
-
I hope he spends the next 7 years prepping to do a show when he's 60. This will give him time to improve.
-
4000+ posts and you still don't know how to post a pic? And since when were lat spreads Kevin's best shots?
-
Did not look good at all... Vince Taylor could probably up the dose and beat him.
-
Now he is making excuses on ig about not being willing to dehydrate. I am taking this to mean he wants to imply he was also not willing to floor it on the drugs in general.
-
he`s done !!
-
Looks horrible.
-
just guest poser look
-
He is not fuller, he's fat. Worse from every aspect compared to last time, less muscle, more fat. The year of drugs and training did absolutely nothing. Not a diss on Levrone the person, simply an observation of facts.
Exactly. He needed to be minimum 15lbs possibly even 25lbs lighter.
-

Yup, what is the fucking point ::)
-
dude sounds and looks like a total scam at this point..
-

I rewatched it fuller screen,,ur right was smooth with hint of abs,guest pose should have been it.

True. He would have been better off coming in a lot lighter with better conditioning and done the classic division against flex.
-

nah Heath has a disgusting slin belly looks fucked up
-

There are. Many probably are in other federations or doing the amateur classic division. I saw one guy from a amateur classic division content that had Brian Buchanan proportions.
Not too many guys want to look like the open Pros

How the hell did Tom’s Legs

-
Kev far to heavy this time out.
Should of come in midway
Around 240s
If he was 225 & now is 260.
Would of been tighter / smaller waist
Yet still carry a good amount of tissue.
Clearly he isn’t responding as well as he used to
And legs especially the lower thighs are not returning
Back is also lacking.
Not knocking him -
Is he intending to carry on competing
Why not if he’s enjoying it.

Maybe people should stop endorsing channels that spread stupid clickbait bullshit morphed pics like this:
(http://i0.wp.com/ytimg.googleusercontent.com/vi/Gs10Fdllwow/mqdefault.jpg)
Only true schmoes are into morphed pics like that, even dumber are the ones that routinely fall for it.
-
He should’ve at least showed up in condition and without a gut. Time to hang up the sock and enjoy your life.
-
-
He looked fucking great and I understand not wanting to go crazy on conditioning at 53.Levrone is kicking ass.
-
People can’t call him all drugs. He has legit genetics. You can’t just get a 50 year old and pump them with a shitload of hgh and roids and expect them to look like Levrone. His drug response is amazing.
-

X2.
He had a decent V taper when he finished dead last in 16'

He was literally 40 pounds heavier yesterday than he was at the 2016 Mr. Olympia. He should have dropped another 15 pounds imo. His legs did get bigger, but he was carrying so much water than it sort of defeated the purpose. Had he come in 15 pounds lighter, he still would have been 25 pounds heavier than his 2016 physique. He literally kept growing into this show and forgot to work on his conditioning. This is a 4-6 weeks out shape.

And to think he was preparing for two years.

.... And more threads on GetBig. No one give a flying fuck about Philsulin.

He looks like a bakery product imitating a man
-
Judging by the pics you posted, Kevin was better than that dude. Not much but better. His waist is bigger than last year and conditioning was off but he looked better. The other dude has pretty bad gyno.
-

Hi tried that last time. He was shredded but lost the size. This time he went for size but not as conditioned.

People keep saying he competed last year. He competed in 2016 (18 months ago).
-

He looked significantly larger than he did in 2016 for sure (including his legs), but he forgot to work on his conditioning. He was several weeks out. He needed to come 10-15 pounds leaner.
-

When has that ever worked besides Ronnie ‘03? Answer: never
-
He had a good run, it’s time to hang it up. As much as I miss the guys from the 90’s and early 2000’s time has passed them by. Dexter is showing it now too
-
When in tank top not full body,..hitting favorite most muscular pose...with good lighting in gym and not showing legs Levrone is quite impressive for over 50 years old.
-
dead last. from top to bottom out of shape poor conditioning. you cant come back from a 15 year lay off from pro level bbing ever. Ya he is just trying to build his supplement line and fan base and was a top contender for years and had a great amateur and pro career from 90-2003. but for a former 2 x Arnold winner and top Olympia contender and now second to last place. ??? not impressed at least get in damn shape
-
talks about water ???.. there is a big difference from holding water and being out of shape..try poor conditioning from head to toe. ya looks great in normal world for his age but pro level bbing . terrible for a former champion. second to last place
-
Hmm. Drug monkey talking. Awesome pawsome.
-
Danimal77... you believe Levrone when he lied about his contest weight back then, 'admitted' it was 218-219... and now you believe he is actually 40lbs heavier than 2016. After the contest, he'll again 'admit' he was actually only 10lbs heavier and 'going to come in bigger next year.' It's all bullshit. Apart from his bullshit, he seems like a decent person.
Not in contest shape this year, though.
He never said anything about contest weight this time...he said he was 260 and the last week he will dropp 10-15 pound...o probably around 245-250...he was bigger he was better. He just need some adjustment...add 6-7 pound muscles and get down like 10 pounds...then I think he could look even better...He didn't look small standing there next to the other pros...He is old, yes, He cant look the way he looked before yes, but he can look better than he did yesterday...if he want...All the pictures on the web make him look worse, beck people looking for the worst quality pics of him. I cant post the pictures I captured from the webcast but he look pretty solid and decent there. Sidechest is monster, most is monster, side triceps and last-read is great to...to bad this fucking forum dosent let me allow to post some fucking pictures...He also had big ass arms...biceps was bigger than Rolley
-

Yes. I captures some real great pictures (side chest, most, side triceps, last-read) from the webcast but cant fucking post them here...to bad really...

Lame excuse.
Paraphrasing:
“I’m over 50 years old and I didn’t want to put the stress on my body and deplete/dehydrate my body like I did back in the 90’s”
Nothing but excuses.
He had fat all over his hamstrings and back. Has hamstrings like a fat woman. Gross.

I agree
He’s saying he didn’t want to do what it takes to dry out??
From a physique stand point and being 53 he looks good, of course not as good or competitive in contest shape but there’s no shame
At this point he should retire and maintain a healthy lifestyle and physique, nothing else to prove

You can post ANCIENT South Park pics, old man, but the following remains true...
He is a IFBB pro bodybuilder on a IFBB pro stage. He isn’t lean like everyone else. He clearly doesn’t belong there anymore. Even Earl agrees with the fact that Levrone seriously needs to retire ASAP.
-

But Royalty is not stepping on a bodybuilding stage. Levrone is.
-
A shame really. All that work. Had he come in 10 - 15 pounds lighter and in condition, he would have looked great.
-
Any comparison photos?
-

Like Duchaine would say it's the contest diuretics and the week leading and week after the shows that kill bodybuilders.
-
He looked terrible to be on that stage. That's saying a lot considering most of the others didn't look too good either.
-
1- So, he didn't want to place good on his last contest
2- he didn't care about prize money either
3- For the 2016 Mr.O he only trained for few months and with a Knee injury
4- this time around, All he wanted to do was to look better than he did in his " Battle of the legends" comeback in 2016
and he didn't ....
He prepared for two years for this contest
WoooSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH LE VRO NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Pet shop you forgot he is the uncrowned king and greatest responder of all time

Was a good showing for a guy closing in on 60.
-
Kevin is immortal he is close to 70
-
I thought he looked pretty big. Not in great shape but still...
-
-
He needs to up the dosage..
:-\ :-\
-
Just a shame seeing Kev up there, he was a great bodybuilder who in his day could have won this show, but its not his day and he should have stayed retired. Hes gained nothing by doing this.
-
Was a good showing for a guy closing in on 60.
Yes but the point was to be "better' than 2016 Mr.O
And he was lucky after all!!! .... just think about this , Cedric McMillan , Steve kuclo and Lionel Be ye keeeeeeee (all top six at last week's real Arnold classic ) did not show up . ( Maybe they didn't want that paycheck ?)
So Kevin would have been a legit 17 th place finisher ... worst than his 16th Mr.O .....and remember, this is Arnold Australia" ( not the Olympia by any means )
That was one giant ego chattered like never before in pro BB history
Knowing the Maryland Muscle machine ; Kevin must be on anti depressant a we speak ...
Yes something went wrong and yes he will be back for one last chance (Just for his fans )
WoooSHHHHHHHHH BE YE KE

For Levrone's next venture, he should come out with his own alcoholic beverage. The tagline, "This'll get you dry."

Kevin is more of a peculiar dude than an interesting personality.

Kevrone is and has always been the most interesting bodybuilder of them all.
Sleeping with guns and knives pointing towards him, facing the pain, no matter what.
Roelly only has his drunken sailor dance, his interviews are a snoozefest.

Funny thing is I think Bostin is being honest

I agree, that is peculiar behavior displayed by Kevin. His behavior is interesting, so is big penny's, that doesn't correlate to a great personality though.

Looked even worse than I’d imagined.

He improved since his last showing. And he has proved that there is such a thing as
muscle memory. It's just that some muscles has better memories than others.

I like bostin
Doesn’t give a shit and even makes fun of himself and his small cock :D ;D

This is actually an entertaining video. These two don't hold anything back.

Improved how? Heavier/bigger? Sure.
But he’s less conditioned (WAY off), his legs are dreadful (in a way, worse than 2016), his back is crap, his waist growth outpaced his taper, and his whole flow is off.
Kevin looks tremendous in the gym, in a tank top. But competitively, it’s over. And to the former, it’s not gonna remain for long. He’s on a tonne of shit and, without it, he’s back to being a weak and unimpressive physical specimen.
Levrone was an unreal freak in his day, but now he is just embarrassing himself.
-
Omg nick look so old like a 45 years old.

BBing is subjective by definition. I think he looked better heavier and bigger. His legs were bigger and looked better than 2016. That's my opinion. Having said that I don't believe he belong on stage at
that level. If that's the best he can improve after two years since his last competition being considered
as one of the most genetically gifted bbers then it is indeed time to hang it up.
-
Agree whit everything sad in this thread...Levrone is the most important bodybuilder in a long time...
I would love to see him do another show ,why not doing a show every year? How high is the health risks?
Levrone was clearly better than 2016..now he got some pro size, he didn't have that before...standing next to the others he almost look bigger...he made the legs grow a lot, arms chest shoulders are up there and almost better than some pros...back look like shit, dont know what to do about that, I dont care...His side triceps, side chest and most look great, but he need condition...but then again...he have been on the sauce for 3 years straight now...and the health risk might be to high to continue...
-
Levrone was a beast onstage...he made large improvements...need to dial in thats all...

Jeez this shit still going on ::)
-
Levrone still got his schmoes.....
-
Or is he ?
levro neeee its setting a Super Guest pose tour up for our enjoyment .... to a stage near you !
But what happened last weekend can't be his last contest ever ..... His Ego cant live with that ...... It was 2 years preparing for this baby .....
He already mentioned the 17 plus hours trip ruined his condition ..
He has to finish better than he looked like in 2016 ...... to prove his haters wrong..... Whatever it takes ! Sha Boommmmmm
WooSHHHHHHHHHHHH
i got even worse water retention when I flew from north america to australia a few years ago. think 15lb+ of water, took almost a week and a half to get rid of it.
at the time i had no idea what was going on, thought my kidneys were randomly fucked (i wasn't even on AAS, just trt, started AAS later). freaked out a bit, then did research and found it's common affliction on the trans-continental flight
-

He looked better in 2016, sorry.
I wonder how functional his kidneys and liver are at this point ..... The size of his heart too , I mean he is an awesome reponder .... But no one wonders what's going on inside him.
I do believe he's not done. Look at Ronnie Coleman he's still juicing and lifting when he has everything to lose ....
These guys are well in their 50's and are beyond careless.
-
Two fucking drug addicts.Who gives a fuck what these morons say.doubt levrone would ask an idiot for advice.
-
I agree, that is peculiar behavior displayed by Kevin. His behavior is interesting, so is big penny's, that doesn't correlate to a great personality though.
Greatest personality this decade.

good posts pellius and fortress sums it up...like I said even a retired labrada 'looks incredible'even now and shawn ray'ahem'well he could whip into form maybe would never comeback and they were 'greats'

Hes finally close to 02-03.
-
He’s full of excuses
He’s saying he didn’t want to take what was “necessary” to get dailed in cause he would be risking his health

If he's not interested in taking diuretics to drop water then he'll never come in good enough condition.

Agreed. Shame that the lack of conditioning took away the gains he made in size.
The legs where bigger this time around.
-
He's dillusional and shouldn't be encouraged. ::)
-
He is improving. Even his legs responded and he is bigger.
Needs to bring it together with the conditioning from 2016.
-
He's only doing this to promote his supp line he's shipping every where now
-
its just better lighting that he had control of. not rocket science. the people making these vids are so desperate for views.

These cult like followings are interesting, guys who've done nothing, competitively or educationally are treated like experts. I guess he has a good personality and is honest.

Keeps saying his goal is to "look better than last show"...in 2016 looked worse than last show in 2003..2018 looked worse than 2016
Where does this train end?

Hopefully never.

He must be saying that because you'll have to 'guess' what kind of shape he will show up in.

Didn't he own a big gym at one point? If he did what happened to it?
-
He must be saying that because you'll have to 'guess' what kind of shape he will show up in.
Why cant these guys just let it go there time has passed. bodybuilding and strippers are the same theirs a shelf life and you have to know when to pack it in because its just sad..
-
“Guess” posing ;D
-
“Guess” posing ;D
I'm guessing he will look potentially decent, but shitty modern lighting will betray his improvements.

Looks great for closing in on 60!
-
Hopefully never.
Agreed. He has made two otherwise-deathly boring shows interesting, and not just because people were expecting him to fail.

Kevin’s body fat was too high.
Kevin’s skin is saggy.
Kevin is not as musclular as he was 25 years ago.
I’m not a hater. I’m just stating facts.
-
Kevin looks great for his age. If he was 20 years younger he would be destroying all of today's pigs.
They need to bring back a proper masters division for these older guys to compete.
-
He claims he was 251 pounds onstage in Australia and is now 244. He says he lost 7 pounds of water since Australia and will be 242 when he guest poses this Saturday. He needed to be MAX 240 pounds in Australia to look conditioned.
-
Total lunatic.

Total lunatic.
Yes you are.

More smoke and mirrors. gonna keep riding this hype train until the wheels fall off. ignorant MD-level fans will keep falling for it. he should really thank the criminal boredom of the current crop more than anything.

Yes you are.
Clever.
I look forward to your next zinger.

His conditioning in the video where he shows his abs is amazing! He just mistimed his peak.

You would be surprised
Kevin has elite bbing and strength genetics no doubt, that’s a given but he’s not all that smart if you followed his career, always needed someone to baby sit him, had a couple cook all his meals, (which was also his gym partnership) and also run his “business” would throw fits if he didn’t get his way
Wheeler and Coleman were the same, elite genetics but not very knowledgeable and only listened to gurus
Shawn ray was actually knowledgeable about diet, drugs, etc.. same with Cormier to an extent
-
One year later, Kev was becoming inconsistent even then:
Kev tooks months off of training at a time , didn't know if he wanted to be a bodybuilder or a rock star , Insane he could take so much time off and still look so great but you can only get away with that for so long. Happens to every Amateur , they're so hungry & focused to turn Pro and once they get it , they slack off.

Shawn trained himself too though. Didn’t Chris get trained by Glass?
I don’t see how these guys use so many coaches
-
About Kevin not being too bright...basically he told Bostin that back in the day he would only use 50mg of Var but Kevin didn't realise Bostin had the same trainer (John O Reagan) who told Bostin what Kevin
was taking in his early years lol ;D
-
Asking is fine. you can ask but do not follow their advice.
-

Yes
Chris is pretty knowledgeable when it comes to drugs and dieting
I’m not knocking Levrone, wheeler or Ronnie, even dexter, all these guys have elite genetics like I said but they all need their hands held and just do everything these gurus tell them, I’m not surprised they even know the exact amount/dosages they are putting in themselves
Of course guys like milos and Farrah know their “shit”

Bostin is hated and prob exaggerates a bit but I’ll take his word over stupid lee priest any day, priest preaches on telling it like it is but he’s more bs than the ones saying they are natural
-
Agreed. He has made two otherwise-deathly boring shows interesting, and not just because people were expecting him to fail.
He won't want to find himself anywhere near the Olympia or any Arnold stage........However, after the Hype and noise he will cause with his guest posing in Baltimore and social media , He will compete for one "last" show....
the question is which one ......
the Shabooomm classic ? ;D
WOOshhhhh the X rays are in and I guess his knees aren't of a 22 year old no more "

Interview with Paulumbo was great and funny...

Why cant these guys just let it go there time has passed. bodybuilding and strippers are the same theirs a shelf life and you have to know when to pack it in because its just sad..
He is the most popular bodybuilder now on social media, his queue at the expos are the longest. He is the most entertaining pro bodybuilder out there at and have been for 2 years straight now...why let it go? He loves it, the fans loves it! I would say, lets continue this! It brings excitement to the sport...

Was on Facebook live last night. When Kevin said he will not compete in 2018 Mr. O.
Don't know about other contests.
He is planing to compete in powerlifting.
Specificly his plan is to break the Masters World record in the Bench Press.
-
Looks great as long as he does frontal upper body poses only and stays away from current pro bodybuilders ;D
-
Remember when he thought he was going to go to Hollywood and become a star?
It's nice to see that he's less delusional now.
Oh, wait. ::)
-
Kev looks great in all them pics
It’s not those poses he is lacking in
If he could look as impressive in Back & Leg shots
He’d be getting somewhere.
This from a a Levrone supporter
He was once very very good.
But keeep on posting the same few shots he looks great in
Isn’t improvement.
Oh well he’s happy enough.

-
For his age, he looks great and it's amazing that he can still juice up and get such results.
For his age, though, he doesn't look great at any pro shows.
This has most likely been another hail Mary attempt by Kevin to make some extra money. I could be wrong with regards to him, but most of these guys do not have a retirement plan, pension or sometimes even adequate savings. Maybe he is trying to just put some money away in light of his age and future. I am not too sure.
Either way, I've always been a huge fan and as long as it makes him happy and they're still willing to let him get on stage, good for him.
"1"

Great body to pose as guest in all his european shows, but in contests is another story.

He was cheating on her way before that.
I remember back in 1995 he guest posed in my area. He was making out with some girl at the club afterwards. And it was definitely nit his wife. Whatever, it was a long time ago.

The best ever of Kevin remains in the 90's .....
What he's been doing this past few years in his mid 50's to most Instagram followers is "beautiful" inspirational but in reality is just nuts and beyond dangerous ... If his heart, liver and kidneys are still healthy, then he's really a genetic freak !!! Milos would try to get him shredded and bigger just to beat both of his last showing and take credit/ publicity
Kevin is still the hottest ticket in BB finishing dead last and all ......
But Kevin can die for us and everyone will blame Milos too
the saga continues
SHABOOMMM CLASSIC LEVRO NEEEEEEEEE
-
Points for not leaving the stage, like Kovacs.
-
I just saw the clearer pics now, really looked bloated and fat. His condition in 2016 with the mass he put on his legs would have been much more impressive, maybe not able to place well in a show but amazing for his age no doubt.
-
I worry about his liver and kidneys :(
-
Kev looks fantastic for his age and should stick to personal appearances lean and tight .... I saw him compete up close every year from '92 to '97 and he is MUCH smaller all over than at his peak and way off the pace. He was a monster back then and even though I am a brit, he wiped the floor with Dorian a couple of times! He was THE most marketable bodybuilder on the planet and even had a Nike contract at one stage. The IFBB missed a trick in not making him Mr O.
-
I worry about his liver and kidneys :(
I fear for his liver and kidneys. :(

What I don’t understand is this: he fully prepares for 18 months for this show, goes full blown with drug regimen, food prep, trains his ass off, and then blames the fact that he didn’t give himself more than two days to acclimate after the 17-hour flight. After all of that effort and hype, why would he fly out Thursday for a Sunday show? Makes zero sense, all that prep and he’s unwilling to spend a few extra days in Australia before the show to lose water. Maybe he knew he was off and wanted an excuse? He does look better now - at least in his signature front and side poses - but epic fail on the timing.
-

Yeah it doesn't make much sense tbh. He should have either flown in earlier or taken a fucking diuretic. He's done it so many times in the past, probably 1000 times. It's not as risky as he's making it sound. He should have been much much drier onstage.
-
Yeah, it was an acclimation issue. The flight made his back look like a low level state show competitor and made his stomach fat.
-
1997 Mr Olympia.. great photo

Funny Coleman was always in strip clubs all the time but goes to church and preaches God every Sunday, the irony of like him
He also cheated on everyone of his gfs including alti
Between him and priest I don’t know who is worse? I’m going to go with lee and his sick fantasies ;D
