Just too much Synthol. And there was no reason.    Still a pretty cool physique.

[QuakerOats]

quads were and still are insane and you cant fake that.

Looks like top 3from the front to me

[Iceman1981]

Wrong.


Did he have a bad career?  He made it to the Olympia.  How many BBs do that?

I didn't say he had a bad career. He would of had an even better career if he stayed at this weight and work on his conditioning instead of ballooning up and getting out of proportion and losing his condition. The only contest where he looked great as a mass monster was the NOC 2002.

Wow, he made it to the Olympia. You know how many guys make it to the Olympia and don't do much? Markus is one of them. He only won 2 contests as a Pro. Why? Because he started to get out of proportion because he got too big. He was marked down for his obvious synthol abuse and his lack of conditioning. He tried to play the mass game and it didn't quite work out the way he planned. Bigger is not always better in his case. It's quite obvious everyone else agrees with me in this thread. Just read the comments.

 Markus had success at the Olympia stage. He was fifth in 2004 and basically destroyed everybody on challenge round(on the eyes of fans). He beat Jay and Dexter and just missed sixth place at the 2000 Olympia. 4 times at the top-8. He had a good carrier.

2002-2004 he was a force but injuries piled up and his body couldn't handle it anymore.

Check out the 3rd pic. It has to be one of the widest RLS ever.

Set 3

[MONSTER_TRICEPS]

Lee was pretty big there.

Set 4.

[Immortal_Technique]

Lee was pretty big there.

That's not Lee Priest

[Fortress]

Massive at one point, and in a good way, but as said, it all fell apart, quickly.

And is it just me, or does the guy not have an aura of gay in him? Yes, yes ... no homo. 

Just wondering what others thought. He always strikes me as a "possible" member of that club. Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course.   

[Kulutues]

zero triceps, calves as big as legs.  He has those Nasser skinny quads

[mesmorph78]

looks good.....
arms even look decent there

His chest reminds me of Franco Columbu
