I enjoyed his classic style of posing, something I'm sure Milos influenced

he also knows how to display his physique to maximum effect

Mr Olympia in waiting but still needs to sort a few things.  More thickness required, needs some serious improvement in back thickness and detail and low lats if he can although he may not have a lot of say in the matter, hams too a bit.  Hands placed slightly too high on the front lat spread and like too many pros, seems to hide in his side chest.  Why the hell can no one hit this shot properly and in the best way for their physique?  I would say that in terms of skull, Dennis is streets ahead of most other pros.

As Gunter said, more routines set to classical music or powerful love ballads would really bring some class to the posing round. But also more BBers choreographing their routines, so it flows nicely.

Some great routines are:

Arnold Schwarzenegger - 1974 Guest Posing at Mr Southern Hemisphere in Australia
Dorian Yates - 1993 Olympia
Flex Wheeler - 1998 Olympia
Frank Zane - 1982 Olympia
Kai Greene - 2007 Keystone Pro
Lee Labrada - 1991 Olympia
Milos Sarcev - 1993 Olympia
Rich Gaspari - 1987 Olympia

How are spastic routines impressive ?? I don't understand..ok routine...but not even close to great. And I like Dennis...just the robotical moves and weak transitions and poor muscle control.

Great list there! People don't give Dorian the credit he deserves when it comes to posing, he was a master poser indeed.

Some of my other favorites include:
Kevin Levrone - Mr. Olympia 1998
Nasser El Sonbaty - 1997 Finland GP



Feminine posing has no place in bodybuilding. These are powerful physiques and should be displayed with powerful music and routines. Routines such as Shawn Ray's with soft music and "ballerina" type posing is actually detracting from the physique in my opinion.

Brutal irony!

I just don't like hearing negative comments about the 2008 Mr Olympia.

Add Flex Wheeler's performance at the '96 Arnold Classic.  8)

Kenny Wheeler 98 Olympia man that was the shit........  End of story!  King is a nut and ya its different but hell gotta give him props for trying something different plus he is a pro and paid his dues.  He is trying just like all of us to improve so I at least gotta give it up to the guy.  Do I pose like that no I don't but at least it is different and adds a little spice to a show...  Its funny people blazz it here on the board but if they were there in person they would be enjoying the routine and cheering.

Labrada's routines in 87 and 88 were among his best.  Phill Hill and Bop Paris in 88 both posed superbly.  Obviously, Bob Birdsong in 84 too.
