So what is better ab-wise? A vacuum with no visible abs or a bloaty thick slab. Not sure either is that great?

hahaha most pro bodybuilders look small next to half decent tall guy

Its all an Illusion

I remember standing next to Phil Heath at the UKBFF North west in I think 2009 and he was totally underwhelming


I was in Vegas one time and there must’ve been some low level show because there were bodybuilders around but it wasn’t Olympia time. Anyway, two of these dudes got into the elevator with me and they looked like children. Like I could’ve palmed one of their heads and held them at arms length. Very unimpressed

when I competed in the 80s and 90s the biggest looking guys onstage always looked tiny in clothes

If you saw someone you were competing against looking drawn and flat , you knew you had your work cut out

I once got stopped by a doorman going from one part of the theatre to another, I thought I was some hobo that had sneaked in, I had to show him my abs to prove I was competing  ;D

  • And he was just like a great darkwing
5'9 187

Benafetto 5'6 170

Guillaume 5'7 176

See a pattern here

For me at 5'11 195

Somehow I'm gaining muscle on only 10 mgs dbol ans cheque drops WTF  ???

I'm starting to believe that my gear in Moscow was bunk can't be explained any other way as I was dosing 100 mgs of test daily and now my current stack is shitting all over that

Funny thing is is that I really don't want to gain any more muscle

So true. Unless you are an IFBB Pro, amateurs generally look like twinks in their clothes on contest day. But that has little to do with who wins.

The talent isnt there right now. Put 1999 ronnie next to both of them and then compare.

Let me understand this- I should grab a guy from 26 years ago to show that modern bodybuilding (aka 2025)  hasn't gone into the toilet? lol

Doors are always at least 6'6", so the guy is well over that.

Fella is tall and broad which is very rare

Most guys over 6'2 are kinda narrow

6'3+ and broad is like 0.5% of all men

My experience was similar, protruding cheek bones looking small in a tracksuit usually meant you were in trouble unless it was you. most guys looked underwhelming until they stripped off got a pump and got under the lights. Except for Yates you could see that guy was in shape in the dark, conditioning was on another level.
