These days he looks like he is in decent shape, but he also looks FUUUUCCKKED up on shit all the time. I think he's a fan of the Oxy and X and Vic and alcohol. Still manages though, he must be a fan of GH and Clen and T-3 too.


Hell of a deal. The "REAL" deal... ;D

He looks old, and he has those dark spots around his eyes that black folk who had a hard life usually get.

chris cormier is probably the most consistent pro, next to shawn ray.


The guy has never been out of the top 10 @ the olympia


he has the best seperation in the quads, along with milos


he is still looking awesome these days.......i would put him way ahead of cutler..... coleman......nasser....e tc

he is a very capable poser as well......great transitions.....smooth and fluid


he is the real deal and for people to say he is all done.......is just plain ludicrous......the man would come back and kick ass......if he got focused and worked with charles glass again or if he moved to england and worked with dorian for a solid year.......his shape and conditioning along with his mass......would be too much for the other guys to handle......jay and company have gone way overboard on the size......no aesthetics anymore. imho

Nope. Sorry to say but as good as Chris was, Flex Wheeler out muscled him head to toe and was that much better.

how can you put a guy with fake calves ahead of Cormier?

How can you be so sure they're fake? Did you personally run tests on Wheeler? Reality check. ALL pro's use synthol.

I never noticed how much muscle he really had back in the day...



Maybe because back when he had it, you were between 4 and 10 years old  ::)

No he didn't. Flex had tiny quads. Tiny pecs. Tiny traps and Synthol arms in the late 1990's. They were the same height (5'9") and Cormier outweighed him by a good 30 pounds. Cormier had more overall mass than Flex.

Chris was incredible.  One of the all time greats, very friendly and down to earth guy and very good to his fans. Party animal, I partied all night with him in 2005 after he came 2nd to Lee Priest in teh Aussie Pro show.  One of the best nights of my life.

He's in his 40's now. Easier said than done. He will not resemble the Cormier from 1999. Not even close. Same thing goes for Levrone, Ray, Coleman and Dillet. They are past their primes.

Chris was most of the time out of top-5 and placing 6-8 usually at the Olympia. Shawn Ray on the other hand was top-5 twelve times.

Chris had potential but couldn't nail it at the O. His best achievement was beating Kevin and Shawn(and Nasser) at the 99 Olympia which was the toughest line-up in my opinion ever. I remember Chris talking about it at the Flex magazine "I'm finally gonna beat those guys" and he did.

I actually got to see Chris Cormier in 1999 in Cancun (I went for my graduation trip) partying at a club "Cats"...he was all wasted, dancing without shirt, and surrounded by some girls...My friend saw him first and pointed me to him, never before had I seen anybody with any significant amount of muscle, yet alone a bodybuilder. I was absolutely perplexed at how tiny his waist looked in proportion to his upper body (traps, shoulders, chest)...it looked alomost cartoonish unreal. I couldn't stop staring (no homo)...

Yes, muscle weighs more than synthol.

Chris was one of the best no question about that and should had won atleast one arnold... I think he was better than Flex or Shawn but Ronnie, Dorian and Kevin were better than him (in my opinion)...

BTW. Wasn't the 99 Mr. Olympia the one were Paul Dillett allmost died because of insulin?

Cormier could have been an Olympia winner.  Too bad.  He's a cool as dude though.  The guy that sold me my car is best friends with him.  I didn't believe him till he pulled out his phone and called Chris on speed dial and I spoke to him myself. lol.

You must have jizzed in your pants considering his is a brother that had made it more than you.. hahahahahahahaha

I know a dude that knows Cormier... He said Cormier was the laziest bodybuilder they had around. He wanted all the fame and fortune but didn't want to work at it like others.

That type of thing is largely genetic and doesn't necessarily have to do with a "hard life."


Cormier is a major tool.
