Retired Pro Displaying the Least Sides from AAS Usage?

[Matt C]

I'd have to go with Kevin Levrone.

Keep in mind he is turning 43 next month.  He not only looks like a normal person, but I would say he looks much younger than he is.  He doesn't have any of the side effects of gh abuse that I can tell and also not much in the way of stretch marks or even loose skin which would naturally come with aging.

Maybe he had the right idea taking time off gear and growing into his shows.

He looks his age (or a couple of years younger) to me. How is a 43 year old supposed to look to you?

Damn, definately the one of healthiest and still handsome retired pros.

I would say he looks a little younger, but maybe I just don't have a good idea of what 43 is supposed to look like.

I thought Special Ed looked 27 when I met him.  I suppose a decade isn't really an enormous amount of time.  Perhaps most people generally look their age give or take five years.

Some more examples.  In Will Brink's gallery, it says the picture of Dorian is from the 2004 Mr. Olympia in the drop down menu at the top, but the 2003 Mr. Olympia above the picture.  So he is either 41 or 42 in the picture.  The picture of Don Youngblood is from around age 46-47 for him.

Dorian is still on hormones though. He would probably look a bit younger totally off.

I remember some pics of Dorian handing out trophies in some UK show shortly after he retired where he looked like he had taken a break (looked different facially). Anyone happen to have them?

Many people generally agree that black men tend to age a bit better facially than do whites or men of other races. Don't kill the messenger (me) for saying this, but I think it is often true.

[McFarland]

How about Bob Paris, or do you not consider him to be from the generation of pros about which you're trying to make your point?  Somebody got a more recent picture of him?  He never got as big as Kevin though.

Federov retired?

[Pete Nice]

holy sh#t...is that Federov?

[240 is Back]

Federov retired?

He's supposed to be ramping up trainnig this summer for a comeback.  that pic is at least 6 months old.

[Meso_z]

holy sh#t...is that Federov?

Yes, the same gentleman.





looks healthy don't you think?

[timfogarty]

these pics look like they could be from California weddings next week

[chris_mason]

WOW!  Man, I have never said it, but talk about all drugs!  I just boggles my mind how guys like Levrone and Federov can shrink so much.  I don't understand how anyone would ever just stop training.

Notice the date on the first pic....23 march 2008...

but then again considering he juiced non-stop from a young age, he looks pretty good,

LOL

[dr.chimps]

Hmmm. Maybe Kevin just has good genes? -ie. 'black don't crack; brown don't frown.'

/matt: want to hazard a guess how much below the mean iq kevin is?

Q: You wouldn't tap Monica Brant?

A: I don't go for that little Aryan Irish upturned pug nose look. That reminds me, what do blondes have in common with Kevin Levrone? They both have black roots.

Black men do have numerous advantages over white men for bodybuilding I would say.  Small waists being the primary one I think.  Whites do have advantages also though (calves).

[TrueGrit]

Levrone is a decent shout. He lived large amounts of his life as a normalish guy pursuing other interests. This means less time doing the extreme eating, drugs and training that can 'weather' the face and put extra stress on the whole body.

However, he didn't win an Olympia and maybe if he'd done the crazy stuff..he might have?
