And chest. I know he's holding water, but you can normally see the size underneath.

There were pics of Dex too, also bloofy. But you could see the size there. I can't find the post again to grab his pics.

Water retention of peace... Where did his back go?

His lower back is genetically shit. Which is why he will never win an Olympia.

Genetics and muscle insertions are every bit as important, as size and conditioning.

I beg to differ. Rhoden came on the scene a little bit later. You normally see backs like his when the bber doesn't train it like the others (intensity, mind-muscle connection, work the middle)---Phil, Ronnie, Shawn Ray, Dex, Flex, Cormier, Kai, Dorian, etc. But, when one trains like Jay one gets Jay Cutler like results.

Sorry Parker, but you can't fix muscle insertions. Rhoden will always have a half-developed, inferior back.

His back was better this year than last. And he improved last year over the year before. It's not about insertions, but about the thickness and detail.

His lats don't insert very high. They're just lacking thickness, the same as his spinal erectors are.

Its about how his muscles are put together. He looks like he is missing his lower back. It's not about lack of training, or improvements he can make. Rhoden's back is simply not as aesthetically pleasing as other top pros.

.....because it isn't developed as well... I'm not sure if you're trolling or just don't have a clue about bodybuilding....

You can't develop insertions that aren't there. Rhoden is muscularly mature, meaning that he can only make slight improvements to what he already has. It is simple anatomy and physiology. Rhoden's back will never look complete.

Maybe he should try doing a deadlift. Reverse hypers, and deadlifts. If those don't add thickness nothing will. My guess is hardly any pros do either one as that would require some effort.

Why do you keep mentioning insertions? I've just highlighted in that picture how his lats don't insert high. Meaning he has muscle situated on his lower back that can be grown.

You're like an armchair quarter back. Your expertise in bodybuilding comes from looking at photos of finished products and videos. I've seen no evidence that you've taken yourself through those stages, yet you have knowledge of exactly how big Rhoden is able to get?

His back could be more muscular. I have no idea why it's lacking, but it is not because of insertions.
