Looks very good, has put some size on his legs, arms, and delts.. Should be top 6 this years.
-

-

-
He looks great!
Good luck MA!
-
If he can nail his conditioning he could be top 5

Should be top 6 this years.
That is a very bold statement. Let's look at the facts, shall we? Who were the top 6 guys at the 2005 Mr. Olympia?
1 Ronnie Coleman
2 Jay Cutler
3 Gustavo Badell
4 Gunter Schlierkamp
5 Victor Martinez
6 Dennis James
It's safe to say that spots I & II are already pre-reserved and going straight to Ronnie and Jay, knowing the history of this "sport", Ronnie will surely walk away with a 9th win. This preordained arrangement leaves spots 3-6 vacant for the taking. This year Dexter Jackson is in the show, so you can most likely expect him to place 3rd (Especially since he didn't go with the PDI, the IFBB might need to grant him a little "gift" placing). Down to slots 4-6 now and I think spot number 4 will go to either Gunter, Gustavo or Victor. Assuming he comes in with an added 10 lbs of muscle, Victor should be number 4, if he doesn't, my next guess is Gunter (via the need for the white hope, magazine sales & WHITE POWER!!), so that's a toin coss. If my prediction for 4th is correct, 5th place would then go to Gunter, followed by Gustavo at 6th place.
The question now lies in whether or not Melvin will beat Dennis James & Branch Warren for 7th place....

*Remember IFBB pros, the real money is to be made in the GAY-4-PAY Mr. Olympia weekend, our sponsors will be working hard this year to match the Mr. Olympia prize money.*

Looking good bro, good luck @ the O
-
got to give him a shout out just on the fact that he didn't blow his calves up with oil...He must be battling with that everyday...props to him...
-
He won't make it to top 6 unless he's in PDI
-
Maybe average is not the correct word , because yes his average is awesom , maybe I just should have said i cant see him making top 6 , and yes i would like to look average if that is average !!
Dont forget though he is in the Olympia and the top six are pretty much already set !!!
-
This'll help his Olympia placings, but he looks worse to me. Maybe if his calves were bigger it'd look like that weight belonged on that body, or I'm just too used to seeing his old self, which I preferred.
-
His calves look worse even though they stayed the same because his quads got bigger. Why are pro's calves so bad these days? Also, his pecs need to increase in size to match his arms/delts.
-
The first thing I noticed, Back is very wide, great v-taper. 2nd thing, his chest lacks thickness, not in proportion to rest of body.
-
I wonder what his chest workout is. Looks like he needs to isolate the chest more with dumbells and strict form.
-

WITH THIS KIND OF SIZE...ESPECIALLY HIS LEGS...I WONDER IF HE WILL STILL BE ABLE TO DANCE AND PERFORM LIKE HE USED TO. Large muscles can make smooth moves difficult.
I think he looks GREAT though.

Yes, and you would know because your chest is so massive. ::)

Well I dont' like to brag, but my chest does look good.

MONSTER VANITY
-
Fat guys like BrianX talk a lot of shit due to jealousy. He's too weak to diet.
-
even with some weak points (!), he still looks awesome to me...good luck!
-
Neck and traps need work, imo. The skinny neck make him look a bit odd.
And maybe he's just posing weird, but what is that? A four pack (abs)?
Yes he only has 4 separated.

His best bet is just to come in the same conditioning as the NOC where he won. Adding more size isn't gonna help fix his flaws if he hasn't been able to fix them in the past.
-
Melvin needs Hams and glutes shredded,period!
-
His lower body is soft from the back if he can sort that he is a threat great shoulder to waist ratio
-
Great development in the quads.
The arms are once again lagging.
They looked greatly improved at his last showing, but now they are back to look outsized by his lower body and torso.

Spot the difference ;D
-
Honestly - he doesn't stand out from his norm. Don't get me wrong.... he still looks good.
-
I thought Melvin looked great at the olympia last year...that being said, there's something about his physique that's missing..I can't put my finger on it but when I see him I don't go :o :o vs. when I see an off season dennis James or recent pics of cutler they both have that "wow" factor to thier bodies.
-
Looks exactly the same year in and year out.

He lacks freaky stand out body parts. Everything just flows.

Freeman will be making a splash - TRUE STORY

Toney "Hercules" Freeman will crush all these insects in the lineup
-
Melvin's Chest is undersized like a small drink with biggie fries...

-
I think its lack of vasculinaty. He'd look a hell of alot better with a few more veins pokin out...
