That's the Mike Katz phenotype:  Very large chest and lats, shit-tier triceps, weak forearms, thin legs.

Lobliner and Katz are both Jewish.  Maybe they're related. 

I ought to give credit where it's due and note that Katz, in his day, was actually good.  Lobliner is like the wish.com version.

The guy is listed at 5 foot 6 and used to compete in the 212. How much does he weigh in the pic? He has to make 184lbs to compete in Pro Classic. They give them more weight as Pros. His arms are going to look worse at 184lbs. But regardless he is competing as a Pro.

What exactly does "Make it" mean? The goal would be to get a pro card and do a local Pro show someday aka The Charlotte Cup. I have no delusions of winning over 40 Pro shows in my 50s

I never said I competed in the Pro show. I said the goal would be to compete in the Pro show. The Charlotte Cup is a Classic only Pro show. They had like 10 guys just in the over 40 division and probably 20 in the Open. The goal would be to win a Pro Card and then compete in the Pro version of the Charlotte Cup.

But again one thing at a time. Can I get my pec fixed first? Can I get an offseason to improve?

This morning 210lbs 5lbs below my stage weight at the Cup

His 1/4 body sized head and total lack of hamstrings disqualifies him from Classic other than in his delusions.  Please seek professional help in a setting more conducive to seriousness than fajitas.

Your goal is to become a professional and then compete in the local show?  Do you think it’s just the pec tear that is stopping you from becoming a professional?

When I win my IFBB Pro-Card,I`m the gonna`then do the Pittsburgh Pro Over-60 and tie for last place ,but I`m cool with that because then I can say that I actually competed in a IFBB Pro Contest.

When Hankins wins his card,maybe we can do a pro event together.

What else could it possibly be.....except maybe his scrawny neck,mismatched looking arms,one delt the size of an apple,and the other the size of a basketball,or his wafer thin back,shallow underdeveloped abs,his piss poor inability to pose,thin Pecs that disappear when he raises his arms...huge disproportionate noggin,or possibly his lack of conditioning,weak training,lack of dedication,no pre-contest diet.....but I highly doubt any of that would hold him back.....he`ll make it if he keeps grinding!!   :)

“ Classic is a look” … small waist/ flaring quads …everything in proportion…: this guys wide thick waist / puny arms and legs is the anthesis to Classic!

But many of the Golden Era bodybuilders had goofy physiques. Like Katz and Columbu with his bow legs. And practically no one had "flaring" quads, least of the guys thought of as "symmetrical." Many complain that physiques are so uniform these days. Yes because they mostly have big everything, as opposed to the past when one guy was know for his arms, one guy for his legs and yet another for his pecs.

I'm still unclear on what exactly is classic? Can't be symmetry or proportion because more bbers today are symmetrical and proportional. Blasphemy! you say, but notice the words I used, they are not synonyms for AESTHETIC, which is what everyone is actually talking about when they talk about those other things.

Not much flare here. And that's ok, some actually try to have small legs but big upper body, they think big legs look real bad aesthetically.

classic for me is about balance
Calves neck and arms should be the same measurement

Its also a "look"

This guy has some impresssive condition and some great bodyparts but he just doesnt have a stage physique

I know exactly what you mean.

But the problem is in deciding who exactly should compete in classic, because it's just this "something" you have to have, which can't really be expressed by a mathematical formula. Like those specific measurements you mentioned, someone could have a really thin neck but still look fantastic.

I agree about that guy. You can tell he's very advanced and has put in time but at the same time it's bad. Not Palumboism, genetics.
