To me jay's "weakness" has been his detail in the arms and shoulders and the glutes and hams. His balance, size and conditioning have been very good. n these pix it does look like Jay's arms and delts are on their way to becoming more detailed than previous recent years.
The GH did incredible things to Jay's face....that's a fact and it isn't a surprise to anyone that knows and ACCEPTS the actions of the hormone, either abusive amounts or very long term usage....it is obvious in many BB's and even girls that compete in figure...yet in their world it is DENIED. I will try and post some pix from an endocrinology book showing the skulls of cadavers suffering acromegaly...which, wether BB's deny it or not IS the condition they are simulating when using these enormous amounts of gh.....when your mandible grows like that you can bet 100% you are exceeding the normal LVHypertrophy of an athlete from exercise....it is exactly like a person with acromegaly. Obviously there are many benifits to gh use, but abuse is very very damaging long term.
As far as waist go...yes measurements are not what they used to be, but guys are 60 or more pounds larger than they used to be....I'm not sure if any BB jay's size could have a 34 inch waist around the umbillicus...maybe at the pants height but not above. 38 is a very good measurement for a guy his size, no doubt.
In the end I think Ronnie will win and should win, no one has his detail at that size and with a "generally balanced" musculature, calves excluded. The guy is incredible. Dexter should be right up there as well.
