Samson has very small and fragile wrists. Wrists never lie.

Yes but it's not because the skull itself grew. The soft tissue, the muscles, are swollen. Temporary.

My buddy always developed a double chin when he dieted for contests on GH, went away when he dropped it after.

Looks like he is over dieting, way ahead of where he was 6 weeks out last year. Wonder if he will come in flat and stringy from trying to get as ripped as possible.

He has better proportions than Nick or Derek. So yes, in shape he is one of the best on the planet right now. He deserved his 2024 Mr. O win for sure.

Samson has very small and fragile wrists. Wrists never lie.
And that's a plus in BB. Arnold or Flex Wheeler had small joints which their muscles tapered into making them look bigger than they were. Big wrists like Eddie Hall's or Brian Shaw's are useful for lifting heavy weights. But not for BB.

I think without oil we wouldn't be seeing any impressive arms on stage these days, oil is an essential part of building thick and peaked guns, you can't target that with training.

I know that this is the consensus view, but I am not sure if I personally agree with it. To me it looks inharmonious, there needs to be a certain proportionality, but that is just  my humble opinion.

Totally unimpressed?  ??? ::)

I know, I know, for a Mr O, but still he does have a 'pleasant' physique. If he had one hell of a back he would be even better, and Mr Os should have the best back in the line-up imho :D

He had some kind of falling-out with Milos and Milos was crushed but Milos was still saying he could win and he did. I didn't analyze the show that much but IIRC there weren't that many complaints; a competitor can't choose his competition.
