Ronnie weighed 340 one year when he was here to guest pose.  He weighed himself at the gym.  He came here every year very fat.  In fact I dont really recall any guy who came in great shape except for Dave Palumbo.  He looked like he always does.  He is in shape 365 days a year.  Garrett Downing looked good.  Quincy Taylor actually looked pretty good at 330 lbs.  Still had abs.  Sean was horrible each year he came here.  He was so bad one year he didn't even get on stage.  Jay Cutler comes in very white and bloated too.
Yup, when Gold's Gym re-opened here in mississauga he came to guest pose and he looked brutal. Very over weight and just big. I realize these guys have to take a break and also there's the off season thing but when you pay 65-75 bucks for a ticket to see one of your bbdg hero's com in looking very fat and flat, it can be frustrating.

I saw the late great Paul Demayo, guest pose years ago. He was not in 100% shape but solid and massive.
He did this opening skit where they played "Godzilla" and he stomped on these little paper houses as he posed, really cool, the crowd loved it.

Thats sounds so cool...I wish i could have seen that

I agree. I wish I could have seen it too. Too bad he had to die before his time.

hsit, dex can get pretty big as well.  his face gets round as hell.  there are pictures from shows he attended but didnt compete in and he is pretty out of shape too.  most guys get pretty big when not dieted down.  this year jay stayed pretty lean, and priest doesnt get huge like he used to.  mostly its alot of water.

yeah, he doesnt start getting in shape until around may.  he would do a lot better, imo, if he stayed leaner all year, then do a 16 week diet and just coast in the last two weeks.

I saw Vic Martinez guest pose in the beginning of the summer, he looked pretty swollen, not appealing IMO. I'd rather the pro's come do a seminar if they're gonna be fat. Either that or give the money to the top 3 in gift certificates for costco or something, chicken and beef are damn expensive!

Kevin fitting in Abercrombie...He has DEFINITELY downsized!  They only go up to about XL!  :)  It is necessary to get a good hollywood role though.

All that matters is if they are ready come competition time, when they are JUDGED. The OFFseason is their time to make gains and improve for the next show. I don't hold anything against them, but I do commend those that hold their conditioning year-round.

I was at a show and the guest poser was of all people Jumbo Palumbo.  He relay knows how to guest pose though.  He was in as good a shape as Jumbo can be in 99 and He owned the crowd.  Even though the MC, Mike Katz said that Dave's physic should be tapered down if He wants to earn a pro card, like I said it was 99.  Still kinda put down Dave at the same time.  Dave was all over the place.  He was so close you could see the needle marks all over him.  At the time His wife was Gail Moyer (sp) quite the hottie herself.  During the show They sold pics in the hall along with Crag Licker, remember him?, but Dave earned what ever He was paid.  Licker, I felt sorry for.  He drove a junk van and was selling protein bars and pics at a table without much business.

Ronnie guest posed at a show this year that I attended.  The girl I took had never been to a bodybuilding show before or knew anything about the sport  When Ronnie came out she asked me what was wrong with his stomach.  Of course she was in awe of his size but he looked terrible.

ronnie looks like he may actually be off the gear in that pic.

mike katz is retarded. his claim to fame is being the village idiot in pumping iron.

Chris Cormier guest posed at a show I did in 2000 & looked completely horrible. He told me he had not worked out in 5 months & looked it.But as bad as he was,he looked 10X better than Hines Senior(?) looked at the West Palm Beach show in June 06. He looked like a Water Buffalo.Take my word, hands down, he was the worst.
