What's the point of adding more mass if is counter productive to the overall illusion of size. Unfortunately there are structural limitations, more mass on chest and delts is also more mass on waist, it just kills their lines. Serge is killing him in that shot.

I'd rather they held as much mass as they can before they loose their lines.

being 275 onstage isn't worth it to me if your waist is 42 inches and you just look like a big block of muscle. 250 with a trim waist and good shape is better IMO

it's not about who holds the most 'muscle mass' - it's the combination of shape, size and symmetry and how it is best displayed.

who gives a fuck about muscle mass. serge looks as good as rolley, and he competed without GH and is giving up prolly close to 30 pounds or more.

thanks for playing 'bigbobs'.

muscle mass. god.  ::)

So taking the best ever pic of Serge (not onstage either), standing alone (with no frame of reference to show his relatively size) and comparing against a random shot onstage of one of today's pros is a fair comparison?  ::)

If a guy with Serge's physique were to beat a guy like Rolley at any show everyone would be like, "wtf Rolley dwarfs him!" when they'd see their pics standing together doing similar poses

The only way judging would change is if fans were to push for smaller more aesthetic physiques and question why the bigger guy with the bigger waist beat the smaller - but that never or hardly ever happens.

I don't think anyone is saying Serge would beat Roelly in a BBing contest, we just think he has a better build.

Mass for Mass' sake is what ruined bodybuilding IMO. Yates started it... and then Nasser followed suit and went overboard trying to outmass him at the expense of detail. I think those two are largely responsible for today's competitive landscape.

That was when we started seeing offseason pics of these guys in the gym blown up to 300+ lbs. and the number on the scale became more important than how they looked.

when you look at these two pictures you can see how serge sees his body as art and actually although smaller is easily as muscular with better lines and more much more refinement. his chest is thicker and basically looks way better
