guy in the middle looks really good add 15lbs of muscle to him and keep same condition and he'd look amazing!
but really, mens physique can be hated on all day, but the reality is that its bringing a LOT of guys in to the NPC and IFBB to compete. its the way forward. bbing doesn't sell anymore. no one cares. its like powerlifting- no one wants to see guys lift hundreds of pounds, because its been done before and seen many times as well. its not a big deal. there's no wow factor. whilst physique doesnt have wow factor, the accessability it offers guys is great and means anyone can compete and do well and feel good. plus the NPC/IFBB knows it will sell masses of memberships to hopefuls if they think anyone can look like this (which they can). its about the numbers, NPC/IFBB can give a shit what a bunch of nostalgic middle aged closet schmoes on a bodybuilding forum think about it.
