I don't know about that, I've seen him train many times in the past, he puts in alot of effort from what I've seen and he's pretty damn strong.
yeah I didn't mean that he doesn't train hard, don't know him. It's just that the individual parts aren't very impressive,
for a pro, but when he's onstage it's still impressive and sometimes dominant in a way. And of course that freak factor, making the less than perfect muscle bellies full, hard, vascular etc, is very drug dependent. All pros are drug dependent but some appear more so, if that makes sense.
I think someone like Namat with the same budget could be much better. Now I know nothing of Hide's money situation but I suspect he isn't hurting and needing to clean people's houses or whatever.
Those pics just aren't very impressive.
