I see that troy has put on some size at the expense of his mid section.  His arms are looking huge.

Like I have been saying, I guess that this year, at mr O., some surprises are going to happen! As far as Alves is concerned, is definetly bigger this year and still supercut!

Legs holds him back?

LOL.

IMO, he's got great quads, good sweep and proportionate. Can't see the hams all that well. The only problem is the calves, they suck quite bad. But that's alright.

Awesome physique.

I predict Troy will be overlooked as usual, because he won't beat Cutler, Coleman or any of the usual top guys with fridgerator midsections.

those are some drastic changes.... we'll have to wait and see if he can maintain his conditioning from previous years at this size

Troy is one of the most underated bb.  He looks amazing and I'd like to see him get in the top 10 maybe higher.  His waist is where the IFBB wants to supposedly wants to go, proportions are nice.  He is as good as a Johnnie Jackson and could have won the Montreal.  If he nails his conditioning this time and they stand him next to Branch, Johnnie, Dexter, etc. it will be hard to ignore him.

Agreed, Troy's looking to be the one to watch!

He's transformed his physique far more than anyone else.

He doesn't have calves!! and his chest is overpowered by his arms and shoulders...  other than that he looks great! 6 - 10 as per usual..

Nor should he. I'm a fan of the tight midsections myself, but there is room for more than one type of physique on stage. He shouldn't beat Ronnie or Jay, but maybe Dennis James!

He looks weird, he looks much bigger and doesnt look quite like himself anymore.  If he can come in shredded he should do well!

Troy look's as though he's been putting in serious work. Looking good.

How much do you reckon he weighs there?  ABout 20 pounds heavier than a couple of years ago?

He's looking much larger and improved.

His uppser body is really good,his legs lag alot.I dont understand how you can miss it.
His sweep is MIA and his quads arent full enough.

Dont get me wrong,he looks good but he will be raped on legs alone.There is such a big diffrence between his and the other top guys that it doesnt matter how the rest of him will look.

Troy looks awesome. wish him all the best ;D Troy's only weakness is ham's & glute's, if he get's in shredded condition should place well

I question whether we're looking at the same pics...???

Dare I say it, he looks like shit 2 weeks out, but it does boil down to what he's like onstage. I won't hold my beath, however. That's a sick front double bi, and if anyone can get a good placing (in contest shape) it's Troy.

My thought exactly.

Troy has always had an amazing physique. He has an upper body taper that very few Pros can match, including Ronnie, Jay, and Dexter. His arms look bigger than ever. His legs have always been a bit behind the upper body, but Troy's albatross has always been razor-sharp conditioning. If he can nail that, I think he could place 9th or 10th. Too many big names ahead of him to do much better than that.

Dammn thats the best I've seen him! All he needs to do is bring up his chest and calves. Why doesn't he work on calves?

with his new size he will need to bring up the calfs

Troy looks a hundred times better with more size! He's still pretty smooth in these pics so, we'll have to see if he can dial it in come the O.
Title: Re: new pics of TROY ALVES 2 weeks out..
Post by: MikeThaMachine on September 18, 2006, 10:22:58 AM
If he can nail his conditioning and tighten up on the backside he will be top 10 for sure.
