HAHAHA, Out of 3 and a half guts you only see one?
-
If everyone has a gut then no one has a gut. :-\
-
How the hell is Gustavo supposed to get rid of a muscular spare tire?
-
Funny cuz aside from branch in thats pic they all have guts
-
Gustavo was not in his Olympia form....too bad.....
-
branch should of won
-
branch should of won
Agreed....
-
Branch has a realy small waist
-
Only have the Flexonline pics to go by but Gustavo looked poor and should have been lower. Not improved and structurally flawed - especially the shape of his quads.
-
branch should of won
Melvin should have won.
-
They should start giving an award at each show for biggest gut, and most improved gut. That'll teach 'em.

Regarding the "gut" issue, when Mike Mentzer won the Mr. Universe way back, there was a picture of him backstage and he had a very pronounced mid-section. Yet on stage, he had a pretty impressive vacuum pose. ND, do you, or anyone else out there, have a picture of this?
BTW, it seems this was way before growth hormone use.
-
I think heavy squatting is as much to blame. There is often a correlation between perceived leg growth and gut growth. e.g. Vic new he had to bring his quads up fast and what do you know he gets a waist from hell. Branch is learly gifted in this area so hopefully he can avoid it for longer!

I watched the arnold and gustavo had the only "gut" that was uncontrolable and sick looking, when there was a side view of his front double biceps and he was attempting to suck his gut in there was still a bulge and you could see him breathing so you know it wasn't just him exhaling. Gustavo is becoming a joke but i think with his placing he will start to understand that hes not as great as he thinks he is.

gustavo is only breathing... even dexter jackson can look like he has a 'gh gut' when he's breathing...
where did his gut go when he was posing?

also, with all the guys here its easy for their stomachs to look worse and upper body look smaller than they actually are if you consider the fact that all the pics you see online are from below ground level... you'll be looking at a completely different competition if you saw it straight on

seemytree did you even seetheASC, gustavo had a gh gut and it was clearly visable from any side view.
-
Victor's looking pretty bad himself
you should look so bad right now as we speak
-
Gustavo's 'gut' is much improved over previous shows. Pics don't show everything. It looked pretty controlled all the time he was relaxing at prejudging :)

yeah i think so too. most of these guys have little ones...im sure lots of you guys out there do too! i hate cardio and abs.
