in the Toronto pro…[/quote]

Bro, I’m positive I read NY Pro. Magazine is at my office at work. I’ll check again. You read it in Flex too?

Alright, well I’m going anyway. Anyone else going?[/quote]

All of mcgrath pics he posted on his facebook and instagram are always 1+week out from the NY PRO guys and the toronto pro is the following week

Maybe he changed his plan idk
[/quote]

I hope im wrong, his presence at the NY pro would definitely mix things up a bit


Ye AC put a pic up instagram earlier and he looks 40!

I feel like AC will definitely be the most conditioned guy onstage

Only reason i want Ramy to win is well, coz he’s representin the Egyptians!!!

Does anyone have the full line up of competitors?

Yep. He came in sliced at the USA and didnt diet even close to as hard as he is now lol

I dont think I can post his current weight :confused:

I wonder how much gh he’s running to cause his face to look like that

Very very far from abusing it.

Appreciate you know him etc

but honestly don’t you think this is a bit naive - not just the GH but all the other gear?

they are all abusing the shit out of everything they can get their hands on

that is why they all look like aliens

if his genetics and/or response to drugs were far superior to other pros - wouldn’t he do even more drugs then?

he looks like an old man and is a pro in his early 20s

again you are closer to him and to the pro level side of the game

but i read alot of stuff from pros/top amateurs who say anyone who says they are not massively abusing are talking complete BS

it just seems to me that if he is not hugely abusing why isn’t he? when more drugs = more results

Went back to my current issue of Flex. McGrath wrote (or his ghostwriter wrote) that he’ll be doing both the New York Pro and the Toronto Pro.

I hope you’re right. given the proximity of the date of the shows it would make sense to compete in both of them

Isn’t Ramy Kuwaiti?

Just realised that half of these big guys work out at the same gym as me - I see Mohamed Salama there quite regularly, although he does wear stripy clown pants. But at his size, that’s forgiveable!

he lives in Kuwait yeah, but he’s from Egypt. Train at oxygen gym. Apparently one of the best gyms on the planet.

It’s pretty decent, but I wouldn’t go that far - they don’t have any power racks, only 1 squat rack, no chains / bands / etc.

^ he looks 50. He’s 25. most of those pictures he was closer to 20. Some people just look fucking old. I remember a kid when I was in the 8th grade who already had male pattern baldness, a full beard, and truly looked 30+ at age 14. I said in another thread that I see no reason to believe that drugs are related to AC’s ‘old face’. I could certainly be wrong, I just don’t see a good reason to make that assumption.

he looks extremely old in his pictures he looks nowhere near 25

it is well known this is often linked to drugs

sure it could be just how he is

but he is in his early 20s, already a pro and looking insane so let’s just use some common sense

the guy is on mountains of drugs just like everyone at that level

to say he isn’t cos his genetics are so amazing is just a joke

at that level they are all very serious drug addicts willing to do fucking anything to look a bit bigger or leaner

that is my point concerning some of the “he isn’t on much” type comments

no i do not know him and no i am not hating - i want him to win lol

it is just common sense plus the opinion of a large number of competitors at this kind of level who ocassionally tell the truth

how did ronnie come from nowhere to dominate? he took fuckloads more drugs. dorian? the same

the answers is always more drugs at this level it’s not coconut oil or using chains and bands

i am only saying this because alot of guys on this board seem extremely naive/ignorant about this or want to actually believe it is because or peri nutrition or whatever
