WHEELER - 92 USAs

[Nether Animal]

Looks damn great. I'd say this is right up there with his '93 Arnold form. I'd take this look over the '98 Arnold Flex.

[Nether Animal]

2 more. I believe ND took these originally

Fresher muscle in 1992... compared to 98 or 99

[ARMZ]

I don't know what props are, but I have to give Flex some.

[Fortress]

Guy's a tool, but his physique back then was undeniably otherworldly.

Check out that side-kneeling pose. Awesome.

[Wiggs]

Best amateur physique of all time in that show. Olympia ready as an amateur. Would place  top 10 in the O today.

[Coffeed]

Is that a V Cobra?

[michael arvilla]

Pretty much perfection right there ( as good as it Gets/ shows you how fucked up the sport is that that physique never won a Olympia)

He was sharper and held less water at the Arnold.  IMO, what Flex presented at the '93 Arnold was the best bodybuilding physique of all time.

Not many could argue with this.
A shame that ninjas set out to ruin him.

[The Abdominal Snoman]

I believe he weighed in at 225 pounds there

[Bevo]

Flex just got out of the hosipital recently with more health issues

Interesting question: has anyone ever seen Flex hit a traditional side-tricep pose?

Yesterday on Heavy Muscle Radio, Dave Palumbo basically said that that Flex admitted to him that Flex considered his own side-tricep pose to be weak... so he would hit an alternate version of the pose.

Yeah seems like he doesn't hit it the normal way very often at all. Was hard to find an example.

I just looked through a lot of the Flex pics and I can't seem to find many lol ironically he had amazing triceps but he disappeared from the sides

[Royalty]

Flex's pecs also seem to look smaller when he hits the tradition side-tricep pose

A very strong case can be made for this. Especially aesthetically. Ronnie and Dorian though brought something else. It depends from which angle you're looking. Mass / Density / Freakiness vs Aesthetics.

[Wiggs]

I heard that on Heavy Muscle Radio as well. Good show by the way. I enjoy the back and forth between Palumbo and Aceto.

Flex had no flaws in his arms. They were perfect not freaky. For how big Ronnie arms were, the insertions of his outer head made his triceps appear weak.

How many were the ninjas that set out to ruin him?

What ninja-clan etc?

You know as well as I it had to be at least a dozen. A physique with functional strength like that is no toy.

[Skeletor]

Not the ninja that attacked Flex:

thats best version of flex ever to step foot on stage

weird thing about flex is he always looked better at the arnold than he did at the olympia

[Parker]

I believe he weighed in at 225 pounds there

215. 216 at the Arnold, and 218 at the 93 Mr.O.

Maybe because he has somewhat of a weak chest? Because his arms, especially triceps are flawless. Or maybe it was because Flex lacked confidence in his own physique?

Here you go. It looks pretty good, but at the same time it looks a little awkward if that makes any sense. ..
