Very good !!!  Understatement
Very full round muscle bellies

Only areas that let him down - obliques to thick - taper out.
& Left bi / trio look smaller than right arm.

He’ll still make top 5 comfortably at Olympia.

Still by far the most impressive bodybuilder I’ve ever seen in the gym regardless of size and although he isn’t the biggest on stage he’s still huge in person

Really?  I only wonder about that, given that I know you've seen some great bodybuilders in your day.

He looks insane there though...wow...lol, how is it that he doesn't age?  Sheesh.  Even if the video is a year old, and he is 49 there and not 50, that is literally crazy.

It must suck to look like that for so long and then have to retire, lower the dosage, and shrink down a little.  Hopefully Dexter can downsize like Levrone did, and still look great at a lower weight.  Even at 200-lb, he would be extremely impressive.  Heck, I know a guy his size who was shredded at maybe 165-lb, and he was huge.

Actually, come to think of it, Coach - he was around your size.  Looked amazing, and was the biggest guy at the Lakehead University gym, and in PUSH Fitness Thunder Bay.  I know some people SAY that guys that size [your size] are "everywhere", but that's bull.  Even at expos, there are not masses of men with your size and conditioning.  They are very rare - and when people see people who look like you, their eyes tend to pop.

Biased much?  ;D

As impressive as dexter is, guys like Dillett, Wheeler, Levrone, Ronnie, were much more impressive in person, many others too, not taking away anything he’s done either

Total freak, amazing accomplishment for someone that age, hopefully he can leave the sport and still live another twenty years with a good quality of life.

You’re right about Coleman but I’ve seen the others in person and Dexter is is still more impressive imo...no, not biased

It is.  Unreal.

Oh...and the 165-lb guy I meant who was the biggest guy at some of my local gyms who I said looked like Coach...I meant Coach back when he was 167-lb, as he looked in this Ironage shot [I understand Coach got bigger as the years/decades went on].

Great, Ironage shot of The_Coach:

Dillett was over 6 ft and massive during the 90’s, I doubt dexter was more impressive

Dex has to be the greatest bodybuilder of all time (right there with heath) I mean by what measurement would not reach this conclusion? Most pro wins? Longevity? Most pro shows? Most consistent placings?

You have this thing with height. It’s usually an insecurity with taller people as they always want to keep bringing it up...lol.

That's a very impressive physique.  I'd say that's the ideal combination of size and conditioning.

In terms of his longevity in the game & the fact he’s won the Olympia
Make him in the top tier - Not the Greatest or Best Ever, Very very Good Yes.

I agree with this

His longevity helped him, you can say the era was a lot weaker like many have said, so he was winning a lot of the small shows and Arnold’s with not much competition compared to the 90’s and early 2000’s
