yep, he hasn't been able to match this conditioning since then!!!

That was last year......he doesn't look the same now. I wonder what has changed, drugs/diet/workout style? All?

I figure he did - what?- 54 shows last year and whatever regimine he was 'on' last year to remain in that condition has now burned him out. Needs to take a break.

Judging from this pic he looks like he hasn't hit the same conditioning he had when he was with Milos......and he looks smaller, if that's possible.

The same goes for Gustavo. He's not as hard and sculpted as when he was training with Milos. Phil and Moe did great; but I would have place Gustavo bellow Silvio. Moe should've been 2nd.

He was a little better when with milos.

Brazilian by Birth, moved to Spain. I hear a brazilian accent. But someone needs to tell him how to do certain poses. He keeps standing with his legs akimbo, and it makes the pose look awkward.

Oh yeah. well, we'll see how he does in the upcoming shows.

Silvio needs to get together with somebody like Shawn Ray or Vince Taylor or Labrada and take some posing lessons. His front double biceps is horrible....I am talking about the form , he keeps his elbows way too low and almost looks like he forms 90 degrees angles between his torso, upper arm and forearms, position which does not help him for sure since he doesn't have a huge frame like Dennis Wolf. Also his legs look very weird( again I am talking about the way he flexes them) he looks like he's holding a barrel between his knees, looks very awkward for a short guy. He's got a crazy quad sweep so he should just look for a different position that would maximize his quad sweep instead of spreading his knees so far apart that it detracts from his qualities.D

Looks some weird shrunken headed kind of African tribal art

It's like in the cartoons where someone gets hit on the head with a mallet and their neck disappears.

really...why do people try to hit the "victory" pose when they have no idea how to do it, just cause you put your arms up overhead it's not the vicotory pose. same wwith gustavo a few years ago at the olympia. he looks like an idiot in that pic.

alexxx · « **Reply #45 on:** February 18, 2008, 12:35:46 PM »

I personally really like Silvio and think he could be crazy once he adds the size in the proper places.

He is like Serge Nubret where he stands by himself he looks like a work of art but when he is compared to bigger guys his flaws are more apparent.

alexxx · « **Reply #46 on:** February 18, 2008, 12:48:50 PM »

I would also like to add that hitting the traditional bodybuilding poses will expose some flaws.. that's why he needs to hit more in transition poses or relaxed poses, until he can bring up those flaws that is.

Silvio is Nigerian.

Not everyone on PBW were on Silvio's hype train. Pepe said on the show that Silvio needed to take an off season and improve his back and hams if he wants to move up. He's right.

IFBBwannaB · « **Reply #49 on:** February 24, 2008, 12:59:11 PM »

I said it LOOOONG ago,he have NO DELTS and not much of a back either.
Thats 2 of the 3 (he got the third one quads) most important parts a bodybuilder needs.
