3x (at least) Mr. Bathroom Olympia.
At least he can now go to Sweden and not risk being arrested.
-
Good for him, he’s in his 50’s or close to it. I always thought he had one of the best physiques because of his height. He peaked too late/old.
-

He’s in his 50’s, most likely not health scares but figured it was time to hang it up

Suspect second picture.

Suspect second picture.
Yeah.... It looks a bit zesty :).
That being said, Freeman looks good, his skin looks great, and he doesn't have that burnt out look many old pros get.
-
He may be beginning to transition based on the second pic....??
But srsly good to see him dropping weight and looking healthy.
-
I dont trust that face
-
Freeman was awesome.weird to see him looking normal.
-
It's from his Instagram page so I'd say it's legit...

Maybe it was just time to stop force-feeding himself, busting his ass in the gym, and taking a ton of hormones.
You can never win here at GetBig, if he was still huge then all the comments would be dead by (in five years at whatever he is now). If he trims down and is actually healthier and enjoying a more balanced life, he's dying of aids or has kidney/liver damage. The fact is that he is still bigger than most men on the planet and I know that is what is so important to most of the fatsos here.
He was one of the greats but it's time to move on and focus on other things that life has to offer than just having big muscles and impressing other men.

He is 6'2" and walked around in the offseason at over 300 lbs. Remember what Jay said about what life is like when you are over 300 lbs? The guy was a great bber but I think his torn pec hurt his placings as well as competing in the prime Ronnie/Jay era.
-
To the layman, his torn pec is probably unnoticeable but when you are at the top of the top every bit matters. One big advantage with being tall is how you stand out in comparison shots. Many look great alone but in a line-up, they disappear. When you are taller than everybody else you just stand out more.

From a Masculine to a Feminine pose? :D
-
He must be absolutely lost now. His entire identity has faded away. He must be struggling for meaning and purpose. I wouldn't be surprised if his friends have abandoned him. And that endless stream of pussy....no more.
Or maybe he has grown as a person and his identity and feelings of self-worth no longer revolves around having big muscles. Not everybody sense of self-worth is the same as an adult as when they were in high school and college. And if someone was your friend just because you had big muscles they weren't friends to begin with.
-
Good for him giving up the drug addiction. I hope all bodybuilders wake up and realise that steroid drugs are the wrong path in life.

Well, if that is your passion and you're successful you will live your dream. But you're right that there comes a time, as with all athletes, when it's time to give it up. Guys that try to stay stupid huge long after they retired don't last long. Look at Nasser walking around 300 lbs and haven't competed in years. Just like that bber that had kidney disease and after he lost all that weight, got off the drugs, everything went back to normal. Still, he couldn't handle it and went back on the juice and the problems started all over again.
Imagine being so insecure that you can't live life without bulging muscle and looking like a freak even if ruin your health is a sure thing?
-
Actually, I'll stick with my original statement.
What about you? Do you look like a massive bber? Have you posted a recent pic?
-

He keeps commenting on IG about being healthy etc I think he was forced to quit do to abusing his body
-

You have no way of knowing that.

Probably. Only a few of these thong warriors are mentally fit enough to cope with being average looking again and not drawing attention wherever they go. Insecurity is a bitch and if u don‘t have a plan B after ur glory days being in top shape u‘re in trouble.
-
Obviously one cannot expect him to look anywhere near his biggest when he was in contest shape, but he looks like he's half the man he used to be.
This is the man who got arrested because the police thought he was too big!! ;D

So? He's still bigger an in much better shape than you are.

lol..this is what happens when you stop force feeding and using huge amounts of drugs, it just shows you what natural is... Mike Ohern take note, if you were clean this is what you would look like..

It's almost 7am here in Thunder Bay, so I'll just make a short post [for me ;D], and come back to this thread later:
Toney - with and E - Freeman is a class act. Absolute all around great bodybuilder and great person, who is kind to everyone.
It's funny - that a guy who is a massive 6'2" bodybuilder that many people would be afraid of if they saw him in a dark alley, is a book that literally cannot be judged by its cover AT ALL.
I have no reason to believe that Toney had any health scare - he likely just wanted to put his bodybuilding career behind him, and move on to greener pastures, as it were.
Toney is 53 now, looks much younger, but still looks to be well over 200-lb in that photo. So the reality is, he is STILL bigger than 99% of men, and is only small in comparison to past versions of himself.
I think Toney knows full well that he can just run some gas and be back at 275-lb in contest condition, if he REALLY had any reason to do that. But he has absolutely nothing to prove.
He looks great in that photo - he's STILL large, he looks healthy [and I'm not saying "healthy" to mean he is small, as I would often get a chuckle seeing people use the term healthy to mean small over the years on the boards], and for whatever it's worth - he's still far above average in terms of musculature, at 53 years old. On top of looking younger than he is, and looking pretty happy in that photo.
Although the feminine pose in that recent photo...I can't explain ;D [no homo].

Did Toney hack matts account?

Seems Matt wrote the post with just one hand...

That's Charles Barkley on the right.

Smart man.

Well we still got Jay Cutler, thank god for bodybuilders who still train and look like they do !
-
Tony is a great guy. Very nice. I have never heard anyone speak bad of him. Hope he is doing well.

Doesnt matter.
Muscle matter.
-
Don't kid yourself. He is NOT going to be happy walking around looking like an average joe. Previously, men cowered in fear and burned with envy when he came through. Women lined up to get their hands on that onyx muscle, to feel that 10-inch plus piece of dark meat fill all 3 holes. All the preferential treatment a tall muscle-god receives. I give it 90 more days tops until he's full blast again. That lifestyle is just too tantalizing.
steroids have nothing to do with that, on gear or off...

I'm a fan of steroid bodybuilding. I'm in awe of what drugs, workouts and genetics can accomplish. Having said that I never forget what I'm looking at. So many stars look very ordinary and dare I say below ordinary without the drugs. I know users like to rationalize their own use and are very defensive of other users.
Imagine if drugs weren't here what the Olympia would have looked like? 170lbs Zane at 5'9". A very muscular Sergio but he would weigh around 200lbs. like he did when he competed internationally in Olympic lifting. Larry Scott would have weighed at his best 175-180 muscular pounds. Would we have different champs entirely?
One thing that is a pet peeve of mine are guys that use social media and posting boards to show people what they look like when they are on passing off training advice. They know when off the juice no one would be seeking out their advice. I know more than a couple of guys that kept a crumpled up picture in their wallet prior to the wide spread use of cell phones to show people what they use to look like. One guy was chubby with a pot stomach showing me a picture when he was on the juice on stage. It was just sad. Here he was right in front of me looking like shit.
I wish the sport wasn't based on drugs. Without drugs this sport would be just about gone from public knowledge. Still people are clueless. Every time I see an actor go from a nothing to a hero anyone in the game knows he's juicing. Meanwhile TMZ and other entertainment rags will talk about how they trained like a lunatic to play the super hero role but will never let anyone know about the syringes and vials their trainers shoot them up with.
I wish drugs were never associated with working out and bodybuilding. I want a level playing field. You want to say you're more ripped and muscular? Compare Apples to Apples with two drug free guys in the gym, and not one guy using and one guy clean. Don't pop pills and go to your syringe stash then say look a me, ain't I great? Nope, I know what you look like without the assist.

Is it possible he has a gay twin brother?

You have no way of knowing that.
bb is the healthiest sport
