Flex Was He The Best or am i Insane.
« on: February 05, 2006, 04:47:43 AM »
In my opinion Flex was the most complete modern bodybuilder to hit the stage with the bone structure of a 150 pound man and the mass of a giant.Please call me ignorant or an idiot for this statement.
Were his genetics that good to take out guys 30 to 40 pounds heavier than him or was this an illusion he created.In 98,99 at the MrO would he have taken Ronster out with his 93 Arnold conditioning.
I am an unashamed Flex fan and thought he should taken the 99MrO sure he was not the hardest in that show but his Flow and Muscle density i thought was superior to any one else?.
Please if you do not like Flex as a person please show an unbiased post of his Physique.Anyway Flex,Arnold,Sergio are my favourite past bodybuilders and i think it will be another decade before we see any one else with those genetics.Hulkster i am ready for your Ronster on slaught. ;D

Probably one of the only pro's who looked great with synthol.
I don't know whetter it was synthol what was responsable for his drastic change in mass especially his arms or something else.

Very Cool Physique - 90's version of Robbie Robinson.  Best of all time?  No Way.  Coleman's all time best destroys Flex's all time best.  So Does Sergio's all time best.

me too!
he was narrow, no back width just detail, arms are totally disproportionate, high lat insert, weak calves, later used something in his shoulders and calves and it widely said thatthose years were his best. i think he looked better when he first started, like the picture ND posted. i think guys like coleman,yates, ray, etc. in their prime would still beat him. will he be one of the best yes, the best no!

he's ok, but he's clearly not the best ever.  the admitted synthol use alone dq's him for being the best ever.

from head to toe, shawn ray was more compete and better.  it seemed that wheeler got favortism from judges despite not showing up at his best - like they thought it was still the 1993 arnold classic.

overall, i think he's a bit overrated.

supposedly he admitted it in his book.  as well as his bs story about the ninjas.


instead of competing against dorian yates again, flex made some story up that he successfully defended an attack of 4 azn's trying to car jack him.  successful, in that his car was no stolen and he wasnt hurt badly.  he showed up at the 97 Olympia, with some banges on his fingers.

dorian called him out.  he said that flex never stated what his injuries were and why he couldnt compete.  flex never responded or gave anyone an indication to the extent of the injuries.


in 93, after the Olympia, Flex called Dorian "untouchable".

Flex may be the most symetrical/aesthetic bb ever. Tiny joints, huge guns, etc. Unreal proportions.

Flex is pretty close to perfection, but his torso could've used more beef. Thats why if we are talking about the most complete guys I will go with Sergio, Haney or even Arnold.
just push some weight!

Flex would have been perfect if he had lats, more back and chest thickness, ripped glutes and hams, and real calves.

Other than that, he was perfection!
