2nd place dwarfing the eventual winner
« on: January 19, 2006, 02:10:22 PM »
I think the 1997 ASC is a Classic example......Nasser has about 50lbs on Flex here.....

Yes, but bodybuilding is like a magic show.  By using conditioning, small joints, and full muscle bellies you can give an illusion of being just as large as or even larger than someone who outweighs you by a significant margin.  Flex had one of if not the best general structures of all time.

Yeah but when Nasser turned around he had an incomplete back compared to Flex.

We can thank Shawn Ray for that level of conditioning on Flex since he trained him for that one...

Shawn, what was the routine for that show?

I love when people go on about Flex Wheelers structure as being the best ever , its something they read in Flex magazine and start rehashing online , Flex had tiny insertions & full round muscle bellies , HOWEVER structually he is flawed , he is narrow , he had a middleweights torso and superheavyweights arms , Cormier has a better structure than Flex .

So?  You need glasses or a lesson in judging.  I dig Nasser but Flex easily wins in that photo.

I think Jay has better genetics that Flex.....


and when its all said and done...I think Jays record will be more impressive than Flex's

Jay won an NOC, a pro IronMan, 3 Arnold Classics, and has placed 2nd 4 times at the Olympia......who knows what will happen in 2006!

You gotta be kidding me? Jay has better genetics than Flex?

Flex by far has the best genetics in the sports.. Jay is a damn hard worker and all those physique, he earned it by going through hell and lots of hard work

everytime I see an impressive pic of Jay, he never seems to be hitting a pose.

That is what is weird about Jay: he looks much better when he NOT doing a mandatory pose.

Nasser may look like absolute shit now, but he should have definitely won at least one olympia.
