2016 Olympia - Kevin Levrone had multiple injuries - torn pec

[Simple Simon]

that's a double edged sword because without the heavy lifts he wouldnt get as big.

of course he would, you dont have to lift to the point you are tearing muscles of the tendon to gain size.

Palumbo said that he spoke to Levrone nearly everyday throughout his 2016 Olympia prep. Palumbo said that Levrone gauges his progress by how much he can bench press. About 1 week out, Palumbo had Levrone on his program. Levrone said that he was benching 405LB for 10 reps.

So, Levrone's chest was healed by Olympia time. But it did look a little dented.

Let's face facts. IF levrone tore his pec, it would've affected his UPPER body far more than his LOWER body. But his delts and arms were his best body parts as always. So the pec tear excuse is total BS. And of course the fact that he was pressing 405 for reps on video 2-3 months out. Basically, the dude has picked up weights and lifted over the past 5-7 years but hasn't done a single squat or deadlift. Did he get last or did he finish ahead of Pakman?

Kevin doesn't always tell the truth.

That said...IF this is true, then more power to him for getting onstage.  Although I did read another Instagram post where he was talking about Quad Tendonitis and then saying that's why his legs weren't there.

Hmmmmm....Not buying it.
