Thats even less likely, judging from the fact that it looks like his delts held ALL the load.
He may have had something goin on, but its not the reason his back looked like that, otherwise it would have affected his shoulders, chest, etc.
And its pretty obvious to me that his shoulders werent affected. Lol.
He was helped thru his delt workouts by his white towel...he would always chew on that when he trained delts (or just trained).
He was apparently going in for shoulder surgery after shoulder surgery...
No, it is no reason why his back looked like that...His back looked like that because he didn't want to train it like he should...he was a pumper...
Even Shawn Ray had said he wondered why guys like Dillet and Fux played around with 100 pound dumbells, when he is using 150s-180s (for chest), so this gives you a key to what Dillet probably did for back...
Plus, he didn't pose his back well, had trouble with spreading the lats. In fact his lats were wider when he stools with his arms outstretched than when he did a lat spread. Odd, huh?
