-
You're in the minority if you think synthol delts are anything to be impressed with.
-
You forgot his synthol biceps and his absurd synthol calves. >:(
Dude was huge though. :)
-
not even Ruhls shoulders were as wide or big, Nasser was a genetic phenom from the front
-
Markus dwarfs Nasser because he can hype up like this
-
good job on finding some of the worst pics of nasser ever
-
I can still remember an article in Flex where he said "why should i use synthol, shoulders are already my best bodypart so why would i put synthol in it" and stuff about the haters on the boards haha. what a tool.
It was obvious he used synthol in his delts and biceps, his bis where always flexxed haha.

No he’s not. Most people who go to body building shows don’t care about synthol and wouldn’t even recognize it if they saw it in or outside of a delt, bicep, or any other muscle; those people just want see big muscle and that’s what Nasser gave them. :D

Those pics of Nasser makes me wanna cry. To believe that he once were great...
-
i remember watching a video of him struggling to finish out a set with 185lbs (total) on teh shoulder press....and that's when i knew... :'( when guys three times your size do less weight than you do..something is up... :'(

Not necessarily. It’s body building--not weightlifting. The point is to sculpt the muscle not simply throw around as much weight as possible. Depending on what he was doing before you saw him (and remember, videos are always heavily edited) the muscle could have been fatigued enough so that 185lbs was exactly what he needed.

Maybe you caught him at a bad time. During a FLEX photoshoot (long time ago - mid 90's), Nasser did a one-rep seated shoulder press with 200 lbs dumbells. I know a lot of ppl are immediately gonna jump in and say fake weights, but Chris Lund actually witnessed the lift and confirmed the same. And Ian Harrison, who was in that gay photoshoot wasn't able to do the same feat. Not saying I witnessed it first hand or even that you can believe FLEX's claims, but I dont think Nasser was that weak as you put it in your post above.

kiwiol, I think you forget about the bench press competition at the last Arnold. Nasser pumped out what, 12 reps with 225 ??.
Nuff said.

ROFL - no arguments there. But the fact that he did press the 200 lb dumbells for a single remains. BTW, I am not a fan of Nasser - never been one.

and in the latest one you have Darrem Charles BNP with 315 ::)
Flex photoshoots are scripture you know!

Like I said, the photoshoot was from the mid 90s and no one back then was claiming or saying anything about fake weights being used. Plus, in that pictorial, it can be seen that they did use real 200 lbs since they have 2 guys handing Nasser each dumbell and Ian standing right behind. Of course, the whole thing could be fake and I wouldn't know any better, but judging from Chris Lund's comment and the grimace on the spotters' faces as they hand Nasser the dumbells, I'd say it was an authentic lift .

i dont know, ive just seen so many far fetched photoshoots you dont know when they are legit. Like a ripped Dugdale inclining 495 and ET doing seated tricep extensions with a 405lb barbell

Haha, can't argue with you there. The funniest part of those pics is the really serene looks the guys have when in reality, they would be grimacing like fuck and probably bleeding through the nose while lifting maybe 70 % of that weight.
-
nasser did so few reps with 225 mostly because his shoulders are all kinds of fucked up these days. synthol and the surgeries to drain it has destroyed his muscle, he probably can hardly move his arms these days.
flex photoshoots weren't always with fake weights. look at them years ago, the mid/late 1990s come to mind. i have an article sitting around showing a chest workout with cutler. there's one picture of him holding 405 at the top on incline, but the only picture of him with the bar at his chest is with 225. there's also a shot of him at the beginning trying to incline the 200 pound dumbbells and failing, complete with three spotters panicking trying to help. the weights were obviously real.
i would hazard a guess that the fake weights started when injuries started happening, especially when fux got crushed. it's only been in recent years that all the pros have been using gigantic weights for everything.

To be fair Cpt, Nasser did full range reps slow and controlled. Everyone else did super-speed half reps.
