Boyer was great.......saw him around 1973 or 1974 guest posing in Worcester Mass.............his build impressed me immensely........he was in top shape and looked unreal from head to toe.

The first legend I ever saw in person.

one bodypart he was sometimes criticized on was his abs.. just Genetics not his fault

It always held him back. Would be hugely frustrating to have 1 bodypart that keeps you from winning at the highest level and not being able to do anything about it.

Yup,in a few of his later contests he did have decent abs.......however,he always had a smallish tight waist.

Genetics can make or break you unfortunately.

He had some upper development but mostly looked very smooth. However as you said he had a small waist & it was tight.
just Genetics not through lack of training ..

I tried these, fun gadget, never used one enough to see whatever results they promised. Also I had a big green one that you could adjust the springs on for grip only.

I have the 1.5, 2 and 2.5 which equates to 167.5lbs, 195lbs and 237.5lbs. Pretty challenging to close. The heaviest is the #4 at 365lbs.

Yeah that's weird. I bet his hand is too small to grip the gripper so he clamped it to make it smaller.
