King Kamali 2001 Photoshoot.
« on: June 22, 2011, 08:22:03 PM »


If King could just reproduce this look he would perpetually qualify for the Olympia.  I'm not sure if he can at this point plus I'm not sure how much interest he has in competitive bodybuilding these days but I think even King haters have to hand it to him, he looked great here.

Seems that way...although he did come close in 2006 and 2008.

Do you suppose he just had better gear at that time or that he just stopped responding?  You have to think he was only 29 in that video and how many bodybuilders peak at 29?  King is 39 now and by no means is that old for a bodybuilder.  I saw Toney Freeman in Toronto and he will be 45 in August and he looked at or near as good as I have ever seen him for around this time in the off-season.  King not being able to reproduce a look he attained at age 29 made me initially think it was not using the same gear which prevented him from looking this way.  Could he have really burned out at such a young age?  Also, King has a family now and I think that's where his heart is and not so much in competitive bodybuilding.

Dude, Toney Freeman cracked me up, he started an arguement with me that his pain relief spray works better then oxycodone/oxycontin for serious pain, LOL he went on for almost 10 minutes trying to convince me and get me to spray the stuff on myself..

King doesn't have the genetics for bodybuilding, he never did, he just somehow managed to keep it all together in 2001, he never look that good again after, some guys have it..some guys don't

Does Toney work on commission?  ???  I did see him explaining the product to some people at the expo and he seemed pretty into it to be honest.  As for King, you are right and his contest record speaks that.  I think he kept improving up until 2001 and got cocky thinking it would last forever but it didn't.  I think he's been humbled in recent years and really seems to love his little family.  He has a little girl and a little boy just like me so I can relate.  Small children require constant attention I find.  I know in my case it's the best part of my life so I can definitely understand if King's interest in bodybuilding has dropped.

He has high but wide lats, a short torso but good ab structure. He was a good bodybuilder at one point but he wanted to play with the big boys and got burnt.

The flame of bodybuilding flickers it's dying breaths as pictures like these are posted. It's like a kitten dying every time you masturbate.

I think he went for the size - ruined his physique - always had relatively shitty arms just became more disproportional once his mid-section started growing. His legs went to crap too.

If this were true, do you know how many drug addicts would be spraying themselves and licking the spray off?

In the 2002 Battle for the Olympia DVD, King was really worked up over some of the comments from Getbig.  The funny thing is that at the time he was the 11th best bodybuilder in the world so unless the people talking smack about him were in the top 10, who cares?  That was my friend's logic on that and it makes sense.  Some of these guys really get worked up over online comments.  I think King looked great in 2001 but I agree that he has since regressed.  He offered me two of his DVDs for free at the 2007 Arnold but I watched one already so only took the other one.  Seemed like a nice guy and his arms were huge in person.  Ron was following him around for most of the expo.  ;D
