Post by: Rampage on May 03, 2007, 03:10:44 AM
Was reading The TRUCE thread when i saw this pic of Ronnie from 04...

I compared it to his ridiculous form of `03

And of course in `05 (which i dont have a pic from) people had Cutler takin out Coleman when it came to the back poses

Yes Ronnies back looks better in the 03 pic, hope that helps.

If not for whatever injury Ronnie has, he could probably hit the same condition as he did in 2003!  I don't think Ronnie's injury is serious or even detectable by scans/MRIs, but I think it is enough to make a subtle but noticeable difference in his physique.  I do think his back is only SLIGHTLY smaller than it was in previous years.

In bodybuilding, slightly = a lot!  A 5'10 bodybuilder would be considered tall, but a 5'9 bodybuilder would probably not be.  Being 4% body fat instead of 3% body makes a huge difference.  As Tom Platz said in one of the old Road to the Olympia videos, during contest prep, little details become big, big details!

Yeah but Ronnies back has been looking as if its caving inward

It should look upright and crisp , as per the 03 pic

Im sorry , but i dont believe ronnis gonna do damage at the O this year unless he gets his back sorted.I dont think he`s going to place second even

Remember , Ronnies trump card was his back - no trump , no win
