Branch Warren nr.6??? Manden skulle havde vaeret ude af top ti mindst!
William Bonac. Nr.15 WTF?!! Han burde istedet havde ligget et sted taet paa top ti mindst! Jeg har hoert at nogle af dommerne ikke er sae glade for tattoveringer, og det er derfor han bliver doemt ned, men ved ikke om der er hold i det?
Derudover synes jeg at Wolf som 4 synes jeg egentlig er OK. Han var flad til pre-judging og fik foerst hentet det dagen efter. Derudover sae bliver han aldrig sae aestetisk som Shawn Rhoden.
Roelly lignede lort og har helt sikkert spoleret sine i forvejen udfordrede fysik med at spille "The Mass Game." Sidste aar var godt for ham, men han har tydeligvis koert den for langt nu! Man sad jo og blev helt bekymret for om han ville foede midt under sceancen eller bare eksplodere! Han hoved lignede mest af alt en overspaendt bums lige foer den brister - Pop!!
Grundlaeggende synes jeg dog at Olympia er ved at tage en skaevvridning igen. Da dexter vandt i 2008 lignede det, at der var en aabning for at en mere streamlined fysik var paa vej tilbage. Jeg forstaar ikke hvordan man kan havde saae forskellige bodybuildere sammen i top 10. I den ene ende har man folk som Big Ramy, Kai Greene og Branch Warren og i den anden har man Dexter Jackson, Shawn Rhoden og tildels Phil Heath. Det kunne vaere fedt hvis der var en lidt stoerre konsekvens i det udtryk man gik efter.
212 klassen var til gengaeld meget mere spaendende, og der havde man langt flere atleter i virkelig god form! Alene her er vaegtbegraensningen en god ting! De fleste kommer i god form, fordi de skal klemme sig ned i klassen. I den aabne klasse er folk bange for at blive for smaa, og saa ender de paa scenen 10 pund for tunge. Jeg savner at se folk saa ripped som i 90erne!
Kan godt følge dig i det med ripped, særligt Dorian Yates var knas tør i 90'erne. Ved ikke om det skyldes at folk er mere forsigtige med diuretika nu om dage. Nogle der har et bud?
Dorian Yates siger det meget godt her synes jeg. Det er et uddrag fra denne artikel:
http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/dorian_ ... _shots.htm[ Q ] At least as far as fullness goes very few, if any, have shown that kind of size in photos. Do you think, all things considered, your size in these photos has yet to be surpassed?

Yes: fullness, roundness and proportion, it is all there. Just perhaps the degree of granite-like shredded-ness I used to go for was not quite there, but it wasn't far off. But it was definitely better than the condition the guys are coming in these days though.
There is none of that (granite hardness) anymore. Some of the guys who are coming in now are really disappointing, to me anyway. I don't want to single anyone out for criticism; it is across the board. It seems that the guys of the '90s were going much more for condition. It seems now they are just trying to come in bigger and fuller but they have a soft look to them.
[ Q ] It is felt that the sheer level of mass you presented in 1993 marked a turning point for professional bodybuilding, where the more massive physique took precedence, in the judges' eyes, over any competitor less than 250 pounds, ripped. Did you, indirectly, encourage competitors to seek a more massive look, to stay in the game so to speak?

Dorian: In a sense, yes, because I came in with the kind of size that people had never seen before, but let's not forget that I came in with super conditioning as well. So the thing is, I could have come in bigger as those black and white photos showed. I could have come in at 270-275 still in very good condition, but I chose to come in under that because I chose to be totally shredded.
When I was getting ready for a contest I was not thinking size, I was thinking I want to come in shredded, so shredded that people are going to be shocked. That's the mindset I had. So it is correct to say that I came in with a new level of muscle size, but that was also combined with super conditioning and that's not what's happening now.
I believe in those black and white photos taken six weeks before the Mr. Olympia that I'm in better condition than most of the guys today hit the stage at. It is very disappointing. You see guys in amateur contest who are much better conditioned than the professionals. To me the professionals should be better. Just because they are bigger, it doesn't mean they are better.
[ Q ] So you were aiming for optimal conditioning and the size you were able to maintain pre-contest was a natural consequence of the training you did in the final months and weeks leading into the show?
dots
Dorian: I trained for size in the off-season, but when it came time to get ready for a contest it was all about coming in shredded. The glutes must be striated, with the lower back shredded, no water anywhere, no loose skin. Like you are covered in cling-film.
