Flex Magazine: 20 Best Backs of All Time-- a bone to pick

[NarcissisticDeity]

Not; his taper's nowhere near Coleman or Stubbs thanx to the keg's blockiness, blockhead.

Ah you didn't say compared to Coleman and Stubbs , you said ' who needs taper ' and you proceeded to post two shots that would indicate he has no taper , which you were abruptly corrected ( as usual ) and a smaller waist and hips doesn't make ones back better it helps with the illusion of width but Yates doesn't need that he's wide as a fuck already despite his wider waist & hips

ND using his own pic ROFL

whats wrong with the pic?

[NarcissisticDeity]

1996 Coleman at 250 pounds and Dorian at 257 pounds , Yates' traps , lats and spinal erectors are just leaps & bounds better , density & thickness that is unmatched and this isn't even at his best ( for bother men )

um. Ronnie was just as wide but WITH a tiny waist.

hope this helps.

Depending on the year I'm sure he is , but comparable width doesn't make up for his lack is separated & striated traps which BTW Yates are also bigger especially the lower traps , lets not forget Yates has lower inserting lats , which are striated & feathered in a likes Coleman's aren't and lets not forget the razor sharp spinal erectors and thats not including the infraspinatus and teres

I love how ND seems to think that a 96 Ronnie was even close to a 99 Ronnie LOL



even from 1997 to 1999 there was  dramatic increase in width and thickness:

something that ND continues to ignore LOL

Did I or did I not mention neither were at their best? idiot did you miss that? I know your reading comprehension skills leave a lot to be desired but again if you missed it thats understandable but we both know you didn't 

1999 Team Flex Voted Yates best back EVER this was in the same magazine as the 1999 Olympia footage  oh snap

these pics are 1997 BTW he was 255 pounds

[Hulkster]

I really do find it amusing that ND has to come on here and campaign for dorian to be at number one, when in fact he was rightfully assigned a distant second to this: hahahahhaha

[Hulkster]

you keep posting the pic as if it somehow verifies that dorian had a better back than Ronnie did even at his peak.

it doesn't.

I love how you're reduced to trying to distance from Yates greatness a distant second lol not according to Ronnie or Samir Bannout 

[pumpster]

Stubbs is arguably no. 1, leaving Yates 3rd.

It shows the obvious , Yates has lower lats , thicker & bigger traps , and sharper spinal erectors now these show clearly Yates' back is better , Yates owns the traps , lats and x-mass tree , Ronnie may have equal width depending on the year but who cares? Yates owns him on detail & density as well

still waiting for Coleman pics that surpass these , show me traps split from the front , separated upper/lower from the rear with striations , show me feathered & striated lower lats and razor sharp spinal erectors to this degree , you CAN NOT do it and we both know it

[NarcissisticDeity]

owned troll who can't offer a cognizant reply

[Hulkster]

I love how you're reduced to trying to distance from Yates greatness a distant second lol not according to Ronnie or Samir Bannout 

but clearly according to real life visuals which is ALL that matters...opinions are pure bullshit unless validated by real life.

ps why the fuck are you posting dorian most musculars LOL?

you are truly a sad insecure man that you feel so bothered by the fact that Ronnie owns dorian so badly that you feel the need to try and show dorian's
'superiority" (sic) by posting front upper body shots in a thread about backs...

LMAO

Hulkster again where are the visuals of Ronnie's separated upper & lower traps with striations? please answer the question to and stop running , where are the visuals of Ronnie's lower lats striated and feathered in Yates-like fashion? where are they? please produce them , where is the visuals or Ronnie's spinal erectors when paired with striated lower lats to showcase a christmas tree that surpasses Dorians? where are the visuals? I posted tons of them and you've done nothing and I supplemented my visuals with quotes and the most muscular BTW you ignorant toll is to show the traps from the front with a clear split where are the visuals of Ronnie's split?

put up or shut up kid , we're all waiting 

[Hulkster]

Hulkster again where are the visuals of Ronnie's separated upper & lower traps with striations? please answer the question to and stop running

LOL who the fuck  cares?

you think that traps are all that there is to the greatest back ever?


where the fuck are dorians ARMS?   

[Hulkster]

ND check out the detail in dorian's left arm in your most muscular..lol ZERO detail..

 

you truly have no clue if you think that is a good pose LOL

 

[Hulkster]

LOL so much for ND's "challenge" LOL

its easy to find Ronnie shots that own dorian because his physique was so much better.

for a full discussion of this, see the truce thread.

 

now ND concentrate on backs, not crappy most musculars..

[NarcissisticDeity]

lmfao when owned so badly he attempts to bring arms into the best back , we're strictly talking back loser and NO I don't thinks having better traps means its the greatest back , Think having better traps , equal width , unmatched thickness and density combined with unparalleled detail does , oh lets add lower lats to boot , now if we're talking back double biceps shots thats another story , lets focus on backs 

[CigaretteMan]

doesn't matter. We cannot assume to know what Ronnie was thinking (your logic, not mine). Show me where he explicitly said "Dorian has the best back of all-time" otherwise it never happened.

  So maybe he only meant "biggest, most developed" by "freakiest", but there isn't much to a back besides it's development in judging it's greatness, so we can assume here that the word is conotatively the same as saying it's the best ever. There are bodybuilders who's backs surpassed Yates' for detail, the only other quality there is in judging the greatness of a back, like Shawn Ray's and Wheeler's, but the difference in size is so great that it is unlikely that Ronnie would consider these backs as being greater than Dorian's. So it is a reasonable speculation that what he meant by saying that Yates had the freakiest back ever is that he had the best back ever.

Heed your own advice moron stick to backs and NOT arm shots  and BTW moron part of the back ( traps ) can bee seen from the front and I'm still waiting for the visuals of Ronnie's split traps

Great post ! he knows what it means he just like to play with words because he needs to at this juncture

[NarcissisticDeity]

Visual proof Yates has all bases covered

[NarcissisticDeity]

look at the thickness of his lats unflexed mind you
