Very good bodybuilder, but wow, what a tear. Markus Ruhl just cited this as one of the main reasons he retired; the fact that his tear like this has progressively continued to "slip." Tommi Thorvildsen had the same thing going on but it wasn't this significant; he explained to me that he'd been told it was basically inoperable; it's what happens when the tendon remains intact, but the superficial-most fibers start to tear away from it. I doubt docs can fix this one either. Adorthus may still have a chance at turning pro, IMO, but he's gonna have to come in absolutely 100% with this structural flaw. I wish him luck; I know he lives this stuff.

how does he train around something like that?

i would imagine his right side would almost always give out before his left on chest presses. would be interesting to know.

You can really see it here.

This is why bb's shouldn't train like powerlifters.

throws off the whole look on most "most muscular poses",pecs are a must on any good bber,any top pro have good full and shaped pecs,and some bring them up the hard way like chic,david henry,yates didn't have great chest either.

Man there's a way to train around every single thing; you've just gotta think out of the box sometimes. If you tore something, you'd figure out some stuff that you'd never even considered before, trust me.

Overall, a really good structure on this guy, though. Ron was right, and boy did he improve over the last week.

OH SHIT, I was thinking he got second to Centopani for some reason...my bad!

Well that explains it; I'm impressed by this guy. Great for him, then!

The tear is ruining all of his poses..

Awesome structure though.

i take back my words about his tare being too bad,,in the one particular picture i was shown it looked very bad but from the number of other pictures it doesnt look as bad especially when his condition is 100% on
congrats and deserved

duncanlukas · « **Reply #15 on:** November 18, 2007, 04:23:39 PM »

uhh he won his class and got his pro cardd...with a torn pec. that is savage.

McFarland · « **Reply #16 on:** November 18, 2007, 04:23:58 PM »

I actually think Markus just needed an excuse to get out of the sport, myself, I don't think it was actually career-ending for him.

Yeah my bad, I guess I was assuming he was superheavy because his frame is pretty much filled out, he looks like a pro here. He can still improve some, too, so be looking for him next year.

does that gap show more or less when he's not flexing?

Yes, but still pretty much apparent.

More noticeable than Federov. $:-\$

Pity, that dude has a great physique otherwise.

BayGBM · « **Reply #22 on:** November 18, 2007, 04:51:55 PM »

Ouch! What a shame. He looks great otherwise.
