bodybuilding legend










one of my favorites.. good shape and well proportioned.. his biceps are from the best ever!!.. but as many others when he tried to add more size he lost some of his beautiful lines.. he would have been definitely one of the very top pros if he had appeared in the 80s!!..

Great physique but a legend?  Um, no.  There are plenty of tweens today who have no idea who he is. :-\

Darrem is always telling me that I remind himself of Charles Clairmonte. My face, my hair and my classical physique. Well I tell you what...Charles competed 15 years ago but if I'll achieve his level then I'll be pleased.

Awesome physique!

Talk about an awesome physique.  That is what I strive to look like one day.  Screw looking like Coleman, Cutler, etc,  I would take this look 1000x over those any day of the week.

Could you imagine how much vag was thrown at him on a daily basis. He probably stunk of gina juice cause it was thrown at him so much.
Wait for it....

can you imagine the feeling of working arms and posing and looking at yourself in the mirror when you look like that ..or lifting your shirt and see all the ripped abs. amazing feeling im sure  :D

then going to french riviera and get old women to pay everything for you  ;D (not saying charles did that tho!....i would if i looked like him lol)

no sorry i dont know why he retired but i know he didnt look as ripped at mr olympia as previous years.

i guess he lacked alittle thickness (compared to guys like nasser, yates, francois..)..but his shape was elite of the elite...
