This is a buddy of mine - 25 yrs old, 6’1" and I believe this pic is at about 305-310lbs. He did his last show in August at roughly 255lbs.

Fuck. I really hope you’re working out with him.[/quote]

Unfortunately, despite my absolute BEST efforts, we can’t seem to get our schedules lined up right - both full-time students and I work full-time.

We’ve all seen what these other mass monsters look like on stage so for comparison, here’s what he looks like in a show.


He’s trying to get his natural card right now.

God damn it, he is a pretty motherfucker

Martin Kjellstrom didn’t do very well at the O but I think he’s got a pretty cool off look. Like a ripped Shrek hahaha.

This guy recently turned pro, Ahmad Ahmad. He’s very light, I think he’s only a touch over 200lbs in this pic. I really tried to find a more bulky pic but I was unable to find one. :confused:

Marko Savolainen, now we’re talking bulk!

C’mon mods. This is out of control.

We all (the non-trolls) understand the ‘spirit’ of this thread. And that spirit is not debate the freakiness of off season, heavyweight bodybuilders or to disparage heavy wieght BB’ers looks, asthetics, lifestyle, or supplementation.

There’s discretion, and then there’s discretion. That last post by ‘gettinitdone’ doesn’t belong in this thread. It just serves to diminish the purpose of the thread. No, I take that back-- it’s an obvious and unwanted troll attempt.

If Tim’s aim is to have “TMuscle, T-Nation, etc. whatever” be more serious about bodybuilding, then this shit needs to get nipped in the bud.

There are several former T-Nationers who have migrated to a much more serious “bodybuilding” site (which I won’t name out of respect for T-Nation), where this kind of dickery isn’t tolerated. Hell, you can’t even post advice on some more serious sites without approval from staff because they don’t want any part of this trollish bullshit.

wtf dude you’re making no sense at ALL. I posted a picture of an off season bodybuilder: PURPOSE of thread- check. As far as I’m concerned my commentary was just an attempt to write something which I thought would actually add nicely to the thread. As I see your and CC response it apparently had a contra affect on you guys for some reason.

I did not debate the freakishness of teh dudes, disparage their lifestyle or physique or anything like that. I just said most of us will never be that size. Whats with all the B.S by some on this site who consider themselves serious lifters but in no way whatsoever, even remotely resemble the bodybuilders they ‘protect.’ I think your scrotum momentarily went vertically into your body when I mentioned steroids.

Can’t believe you’re calling me out when a few pages back there was some 1 page argument about adre shots and power lifers and whatever.

If you really feel that strongly about my comments ill go ask a mod to remove them for you lol? Say please next time though.

Damn, that’s one thick dude.

Holy shit…some awesome pic guys. It’s amazing to see what a lot of hard work looks like in people with differentiating genetics. I know I can’t look like this or that guy, never. Yet who says I can’t become impressive within my own right? I wish more had that mindset instead of bashing amazing bodybuilders and spreading bullshit.

the question “who of these had freakier arms?” prevails for me…


get the hell out of the way and let me see that MM! b$&%h.

Another impressive shot; too bad he got sick in his last Olympia, considering he took a year off.

Heath’s forearms are just ridiculous! I haven’t seen brachialis development like that since Paul Dillett was in his prime.

Well its gotta be something, don’t know how you could build arms that size and have such small looking forearms in comparison.[/quote]
