He will be completely bald before soon.

Then he’ll start winning more shows

He’s got nothing left up top, wonder if he started abusing dht’s heavy.  I heard he loves Mast Prop.

It’s what “generation nothingness” does.

Steve has been at a high level for a long time...it was Justin Harris who said [in 2004] that when Steve starts juicing, everyone will know.

Low and behold, in 2007, he reinvented himself, and became a giant.  He has been massive ever since.  It makes me wonder what the change was...I suppose there is some possibility that he was naturally until the age of 20, in 2005...but even then, he competed at 205-lb at his height of 5'11 or 5'11 and some change.  It know it may not sound massive, but being 205-lb of lean contest-ready muscle at 5'11 is NOT small.  It's just that in 2007, he became that much bigger.

It's possible that he went from using minimally - maybe pro-hormones and ephedrine only - to actually using gear as a competitive bodybuilder would.  Or I suppose there is a chance that he was naturally when he was 18-20.  Whatever happened, he really blew up in 2007, and has stayed massive ever since.

Is Steve still laying waste to the big numbers in the deadlift like he used to?  He was extremely strong before...look at this video at age 21, from 2006:

The first two photos are from 2005, when it was alleged that Steve was natural.  As said, I believe he was around 205-lb in those photos.  The next two photos were from the 2008 NPC Nationals, which was held in October of 2008...it was around Spring of 2007 that Steve blew up...and he has stayed big ever since, and gotten progressively bigger and more refined over time.

Steve knew Art Atwood quite well.  At the 2012 Arnold Classic, I talked to Steve a little about that.  Art's death didn't seem to dissuade Steve from continuing to pursue the life of a professional bodybuilder.  At the same time, Steve was only 26 at that time, so he likely wasn't thinking about the long-term potential risks of pro bodybuilding.

Given that Steve is a paramedic, I would guess that he is a smart enough person to know to quit if there is any writing on the wall.  He is also only 32 years old right now, so he still has some time left.  Hopefully he doesn't continue to compete past the age of 40.

Looks big!

Going bald is a curse, unless you accept its inevitability. You'll know you have when you shave it all off. He's what, 33? That's not too young to go bald.

And he already has transplants in the front. He also uses that thickening powder in most videos or wears a hat.

Seems like he's resisting it by not going bald gracefully. That's a shame.

My aunt told me that if you make it to 26 without going bald, then your hair is likely here to stay...or mostly stay [it may thin slowly over the years, but you wouldn't be likely to go completely bald].  I think I may have also read something like 50% of men will experience male pattern baldness...that's sad.  I am grateful for having a nice full head of hair, that hasn't declined by one hair, even now at 36.  That said, I have masses of white hairs...luckily, my hair is so dark, that it hides a lot of the white, heh.  I can't complain about my hair - as superficial as hair may be, I do enjoy having it.

Is it bad to hide it?  I know people say that being bald "adds character" or what have you...but is it really necessary to go bald?  I have met a few men who I think declined in looks once they started losing their hair...I don't get this stuff about "character".  I have white hairs, and I don't think of it as a benefit that adds character.  In fact, I hope my hair stays as dark as possible for as long as possible - and of course, as thick as possible.

I’m in my 30’s as well and same hair as I’ve had since I was a teen, hopefully it stays that way

Steve is one of those guys that can’t go completely bald, he’ll look very awkward cause of his facial features and head shape

I know what you mean about head shape.  My head is massive, and I think that is why long hair is not suitable for me - it just draws attention to my head being so big.  I think the hairstyle I had when I went to the 2013 Mr. Olympia is about the only style I can pull off - short hair, and a clean look.  Admittedly, it's not something I have spent a lot of time thinking about, but I probably should now.  I'm not getting any younger, so I might as well try to look my best before aging hits me hard.

Speaking of head size - when I spoke to Rich Gaspari when I first met him in 2012, I told him that I didn't think the criticisms of him being narrow/boxy were necessarily accurate [although anyone would look narrow next to Lee Haney], but that Rich had a big head like I do, and it will make anyone look more narrow than they actually are.  The funny thing about that is that he didn't acknowledge it, heh.  We were speaking and getting along fine, but he didn't respond to that comment - and I don't think that comment was out of line or inaccurate.  Like Phil Heath, part of Rich's narrow appearance was that he had a big head - or at least, not a small head like, say, Orville Burke.

It's funny how head size makes a difference like that - I believe Peter McGough said that Sergio Oliva had a small head, which helped him to look wider than he actually was - even though he was already pretty wide.

I never understood the comments of Kevin Levrone being "narrow", nor do I think Kev has a big head.  I believe Bertil Fox may have been called narrow too, but I may be mistaken about that.

Big delts... but he didn’t have wide clavicles like Orville Burke or Jay Cutler.
