Legs were always slim. His claim to fame was his back.

He’s taller & had a Very Good Back - Not matching Markus On overall Size.
Also legs drastically under par.
So glad your not a Judge - Ridiculousness of the Result would be totaly Laughable.

Carry on.

So movie critics have to direct a box office hit to have an opinion?

I do look like a god however...

Curry won the Olympia with no legs, so that's hardly an argument these days...

It would probably help if they did & add a bit of weight to what they say
As they’d have some idea of the difficulties involved.

Only yes you’re most certainly entitled to your opinions
As I am Mine.

nah- no experience needed. Bodybuilding is a male beauty contest and ugly is ugly. No training required to see that some bodies look like shit.

Certainly we all have Physiques we like & their are some with better aesthetics than others,
The fact that so many say they’re shit Physiques to virtually every pro physique
Makes me wonder
1, how good these people’s Physiques are
2, And Who they do rate physique wise & Why

The ancient Greeks nailed it down pretty well: Inverted triangle over triangle. Works well for men and women. That's how Steve Reeves based his physique development. The advent of synthetic hormones unfortunately has led to such a grotesque overdevelopment that it is now rectangle over rectangle in many cases.

Post by: michael arvilla on April 08, 2020, 01:20:15 PM: Joel is 6 ft 3” and was already “ older” when he turned pro (had Injuries to his knee/knees from basketball which totally hampered his leg training) super impressive with a “ Coleman like back” .. was too old and injured to wreak any havoc in the IFBB pro ranks (which is a shame would have loved to see a prime Stubbs in the IFBB)

So Arnold/ Scott / Zane / Paris / leidelmeyer / Ray / Labrada / & countless others
Who’ve used synthetic hormones have Grotesque Physiques- Hmmm I think you’ll
Find Opions Vary & Many would say they had Great Physiques.

Now that isn’t to say there aren’t unappealing Physiques that’s as much to do with genetic
Make up as Synthetic hormones - not all Physiques around the Reeves era or before we’re
Great either - some just weren’t put together by Nature to good.

Post by: TTfit on April 08, 2020, 02:30:18 PM: It was always his legs that held him back. And to be fair they were huge but not proportionate with the rest of him.
Title: Re: HOLY SHIT Joel Stubbs was a friggin' beast !
Post by: Fortress on April 08, 2020, 03:41:58 PM: During his peak, I had a workout with him.

Man was incredibly impressive. Freakish, even.

But as others say, his wheels were seriously lacking. Like, A LOT.

He told me his knees were fucked and this is why he couldn’t bring them up. Whatever. Sure. I’m sure his knees were fucked. Doesn’t change anything.

Stubbs’ wheels were flat and that’s that.

Post by: honest on April 08, 2020, 03:58:58 PM: Biggest widest back I have ever seen. both Yates and Ronnies were thicker, honourable mention goes to Lee Haney, his back was something else as well.

Yes I watched it.
Hmmm they may or could’ve been a bit drier & tighter.
I wouldn’t say smooth - Wouldn’t we all like to be that off & smooth as them.

Yeah but his competition had more flaws than him. Stubbs competition was of higher quality.

Curry has legs....NOW! Not so much did he have them, back in the day.

BTW, what happened to Leo "The Freak" Ingram (the guy to Ruhl's left at 11:00)? He qualified and competed in one Olympia (2008). And he hasn't really been seen since then.

Glaring weak parts.

Anyone else notice Cedric in this video? He looked to be the healthiest of them all. Would have never had him on a death list ahead of Marcus. I think Cedric is a casualty of the vaccine which was mandated for him.
