Author Topic: Did Putnam bring up his back at all? (Read 12248 times)

amazing detail

not too many bodybuilders have that sort of separation in the back, I can even see the separation between the teres major and minor

If you had 20lbs more muscle at that level of detail you would have become a professional, no?

that was a long time ago. i don't know what i coulda done to turn pro. i think one thing i did wrong was never competing at the nationals two years in a row. i think you have to be on the judges mind from the year before.
after 1991 i only competed every 2-5 years.

What frog? Hazbin, you look good there. But are you in the process of falling down to your left? That would be bad.

lol, no. i was told that the legs would look bigger if the knees were pointed outwards. on second thought maybe i was falling over! haha

Nope. Needs more width up top

Putnam's back is just flat out embarrasing. You couldn't win some state shows with that back. How he gets so much hype is beyond me.

And he has that marhsmallow conditioning to go along with that pathetic back.

Fixed.

Pootnam looks like a deformed dwarf - zero aesthetics - Ben will be rotating in his grave

I just don't understand this guy's logic. Would you be proud to show up looking like hammered crap, the worst you've looked in years for a show, and accept a pro card just because the rest of the field looks like crap, too? He's WAY off. Embarassingly smooth and off.

After his loss last year, where he was closer to 3rd than first, the guy said he was going to come back the next year improved but stay in the same weight class. He was right at the cutoff for that class in weight. So let's get this straight: Your BF is around 2.5-3% for that show (his 2007 show) and you are right at the cutoff limit yet you planned on coming back this year IMPROVED? How so? You weren't going to be able to put any size on your non-existent back unless you put on weight. Period. Fear of moving up to the heavyweight class caused this guy to regress. When you enter into anything scared of competition/not being in yourself, well, who's the real winner?

Anyway, this guy's nickname should be "The Gift" if he gets his card. Screw Phil Heath. His "Gift" is of a different kind, though....

No, it went down with the rest of him.

Too bad we can't say the same about his wife.....

maybe Peter doesn't like deadlifts,rows,chins,hyperextensions,pulldowns,pullups,hammer strength rows, or pullovers?

there's a video clip of him training back...and it seems like he loves using machines. You know, the opposite of what has built great backs of the past

Maybe he's on to something

WTF, he has the weird Branch Warren post-lat tear thing going in the first pic with his shoulders nowhere near parallel in that pose. WTF happened?

Musclecenter would humiliate Putnam in the gym, Peter would give up faster than a Muslim on all you can eat ribs night.
