As I recall the stated dose was very, very high for the time, something like 20iu. First guy to really mega dose plain testosterone as well as is standard today.

He was even better than given credit for I think.

Imagine if Munzer had done 54 iu the night before the show...

It's not quite the same look to the skin, Munzer had more fine detail and Yates looked harder perhaps.

Munzer only had slight structural issues that prevented him from going to the very top. He did have the long legs which is good aesthetically. Same as all the best, Yates among others. But I guess it's the waist to shoulder differential among some other things. IMO no one beats Yates on back, Munzer's was way inferior.

His midsection never seemed to show the same detail as everything else. Strange that.

Munzer was a lot bigger than that I first thought. Seeing him in comparisons he was usually the biggest of one of the biggest on stage.

True. I think it was that the skin wasn't as taut there, so it looked squishy. He actually may have had a water problem, ironically. We know it wasn't fat. It might have been that his organ problems were so severe and the dosages too high. Speculating.

Was that really Andreas' body and liver? If so, someone broke medical ethics laws I would think...

"a liver that contained numerous table tennis ball-sized tumors (with half the liver consisting simply of a crumbly mass that was similar to polystyrene)"

Maybe not the liver in the pic. Liver cysts in bodybuilders aren't that uncommon, probably many have the benign tumors and don't know it. Benign as in not cancerous, but dangerous nonetheless if the blood filled cysts rupture. Several forum posters have discovered them, sometimes sort of by accident as liver enzyme tests may be normal...

"Nature's multivitamin," they say. I've read that the old timers, perhaps even before the steroid era proper, I'm not sure, would eat upwards of 300 pressed liver tabs a day lol. Gironda was big on them. I checked the supp stores here and organ meat tablets actually cost a lot, so I never bought any. Lee Priest used to claim he ate them IIRC. Maybe orchic gland tabs would be good too :D

If Munzer didn’t die in spring 1996, I think that he would’ve placed above Flex and Levrone at the Olympia (they were both way off)

Top 4 would’ve been:

Yates
Ray
El Sonbaty
Munzer

Munzer was a lot bigger than that I first thought. Seeing him in comparisons he was usually the biggest of one of the biggest on stage.

I always thought the same thing. His absolute were a little blury- probably not the right word- but odd that his abs looked less than average while his chest, shoulder,  tricep striations were so crisp.

It never looked quite right.

I also thought he should've placed higher in his shows. When he first turned pro he was fairly lean as in lighter weight/smaller,but ripped as hell. So the knock was he needed more size. But over time he put on a lot of size. He lost some of the cuts but was still shredded and still never placed really high. I don't know if he ever won a pro show.

How about some Beef Tongue

Beef tongue’s nutritional value
A 100g portion of beef tongue contains 278 calories, 19 grams of protein, and 22 grams of fat. Calories are important because your body uses them as fuel and energy. Protein is essential for repairing cells and making new ones, and because beef tongue is so high in protein, it’s a good dish for those trying to build lean muscles

The fat content in beef tongue comes from a mixture of healthy unsaturated fats as well as 7 grams of saturated fat. Although the beef tongue is not considered a lean meat, it’s a great addition to your diet in moderation.

thats what it is… munzer is lean, but yates is lean and bone dry - granular.

Munzer was way inferior.

munzer died attempting to become what yates was innately.
