what the hell happened to the guy???

said it before and i'll say it again, he does have great arms. shame about the pec cause aside from conditioning which he could fix with time he is young he could be a real future threat. who knows maybe he could overcome the pec tear. there are other pros that have excelled and succeded with underdeveloped pecs, lee priest anyone? nothing against lee everyone has their strength and weakness lee has many good qualities his pecs are not his best part. so if federov brought his pecs up he could match lee in terms of developement.

looks like art atwood in those pics a little.

Too much vodka, too much cruising with his hummer, too much party's. Too much for a simple russian guy anyway

I'll tell you what happened to this guy. He got overrated when he competed against Cutler and Coleman in shows where both were coming off the Olympia (not in OLYMPIA condition, close) and he was being compared against nobody lineups and he had homefield advantage in Russia. Put him on a plane, on foreign soil, against stacked lineups, and he falls apart. Add in the torn pec, him being too young to completely knows what works for him, and this guy will never fulfill the promise FLEX put so heavy on him. i.e Richard Jones, Chris Cook, Gunter, and now Federov

You guys don`t know shit.
Fedorov was unbelieveable in 2003. In that condition he was top six material at the Mr. O. So the hype was ok. Lightyears ahead Chris Cook for example, who wouldn`t have a chance at an Amateur European or World Championship.
Unfortunately since then he wasn`t in that condition anymore. That`s the point I don`t understand, we all know his chest problems, but why is his conditioning so horrible ?

Adam Empire · « **Reply #8 on:** May 21, 2006, 07:33:19 AM »

I just think the dieting part is tough for him (I have heard that it may be a fod quality problem in Russia - due to lack of labeling, standards, etc). That would certainly make it tougher. But he just need to learn to come down earlier to ensure that he is low enough...

TOp six at the Mr. O with one pec, and a asymetrical back? He's the Russian version of Art Atwood, and if Atwood couldn't make a dent what makes you so sure Federov could? what are you smokin'?

Ditto:

He’s another Kovacs: BIG bulky muscle that’s fun to look at or grope but not cut out to be a pro bodybuilder. He has terrible lines, ugly muscles, and should train simply for the fun of it. He will never be in the first or second tier competitor.

umm..how can you mis label chicken breast and potatoes? wouldn't he be on a strict diet during comp prep? also they all access to the same drug. I would even argue that he has more access being from russia. He doesn't have the same governmental restrictions as the US.

his obliques and lower abs look like crap. Can someone chime in on if that is fat or water

he look 2-3 weeks out, need to cut more

War-Horse · « **Reply #21 on:** May 21, 2006, 11:35:10 AM »

He missed his peak. He needed 2 more days of carbing up and dropping his water immensly.

Hes flat and holding water....hes gonna learn the hard way. But hes young, so hes got time.
