I give respect to him as arguably the best Mr. O ever but why so much muscle loss? Many BBers in their late 40s retained most of their muscle and shape. Dennis James is the same age as Ronnie. Benefatto is 55 and retained much of his muscle. Vince Taylor was in his early 50s and looked great still. Is it injuries, nerve issues, something drug/receptor related that has caused the more rapid muscle loss? Sure he may not be training as hard and on less stuff but the extremity atrophy is more than I would have assumed given age. Something for others to realize...the abdominal and organ growth does not go away when you stop competing. Once people get into their 50s and 60s we loose a lot of muscle, it sucks but staying relatively injury free helps.
