anyone else disappointed with levrone?

[munzar]

just looked like a mess overall. how could his legs be that bad?

[Loctus]

His legs were bad fifteen years ago and now he's a 52 year old man who haven't been a part of this sport since 2003. What. The. ****. did you expect?

Anyone seen a comment from Levrone ?
Nothing on his IG and nothing on his ********.

[deathmetal1992]

Pretty much what the above poster said, those who were realistic knew what to expect. Those who thought he was going to be top 10 for certain, top 6 very likely, were embarrassed and shaken. I can't imagine what those who thought he could place top 3, let alone win, must be feeling.



Levrone was Straight Dave (Bruno), his fans were the overhyped hilbilly. I think this is a perfect parallel.

[Marc.o]

Just saw this vid, he tore his chest in May and couldnt train legs much because of calcific tendonitis

His upper body was good enough to potentially place had his carb up and tanning/oil been a bit more on point, but his legs were obviously not anywhere near relevant.

If he's healthy enough to continue to actually train properly for a complete season I can totally see him placing in the middle of the pack in some smaller shows. Maybe even grab some podium finishes by mid season next year.

Because say what you will, but his Upper body isn't half bad. And with some more work and on point dieting he could definitely beat a lot of guys. The real question is whether or not he can properly train his legs (someone mentioned a health issue). Because I don't think it's impossible to improve them, despite his age.

[SPARTANUP]

Not disappointed, just shocked, shocked in 2 ways, one was the sight of his legs, yes I had to look away. Second shock is how he actually held his own in some poses (upperbody front) with the best in the world, his arm size was appreciable in the front lat spread and side chest.

Good that he created some pre Olympia buzz.

Not sure what you delusional fuks expected. He looked great for how long he had been training, and his age. And a couple of his poses he looked good. The legs and back were obviously pretty bad.

It's only been like 12 hours

Oh, well that explains the legs. Good on him for following through. Upper body looked good all things considered, front MM and side chest were beautiful. I wonder if he's able to or planning on trying to fix the leg issue to bring them up.

[bartosh]

His muscles are one thing but there isn't an excuse for his conditioning.

[KevinSorbo]

How did Ben score better than Kevin or Akim, awful gut, and a worse back than Kev.

[GearHound]

not disappointed at all. i didnt know what to expect on his legs but his upper body honestly blew me away

[tonyt82]

His conditioning was good

[bartosh]

His conditioning was good

For a 50-whatever year old man? Sure. For somebody who was saying that the conditioning of the current era is pathetic and he'l show us true 90's conditioning? It'd bad

[tonyt82]

exactly,a man is his 50s...

[bartosh]

exactly,a man is his 50s...

You're saying it's good based off of his age. I'm saying it's bad based off of what he said he would bring.
It's relative.

[Steron99]

Well,if nothing else,he created a lot of hype.That much is true.I just get tired of the same old,same old each year...

[tonyt82]

true,i suppose he had to hype the be jesus out of it

[Salden]

I haven't followed all of his postings but it would have been best to post it before the Mr O instead of the day after...

[KevinSorbo]

conditioning was on point for the finals

[x-trainer ben]

Let's give the man credit, age 52, pec tear and knee tendonitis.....cmon. He showed up.

[MillerTime07]

Give him a FULL off season and he will do some serious damage. Really hoping he keeps training and competes again next year. He will be a shoe in for the top 10.

[joediesle]

The guy entered the most prestigious bodybuilding contest in the world after 13 yrs off, give him some credit, its not like he was entering the Mr Maryland contest.

[DPNZ]

Disappointed? Not at all.

This was exactly what I expected.
