Levrone 9 Weeks Out (2 photos)

[Devils]

If Ronnie or Dorian never existed he would have won multiple times.

Oh and for anyone doubting him, believe back in his younger days it was stated that at 12 weeks out Levrone was 170lb, come comp day he stepped on stage at 245lb and won (forgot which year, believe was like early 1990's)......anyone doubting Levrone is kidding themselves....he still has 9 fkin weeks to go and already looks good!

lmao at people still believing this dribble

It's common knowledge, many eye witnesses have seen Levrone grow this fast. 2002 as an example he was about 180 and 12 weeks later was 2nd at the O. lmao at people still not caught up on things that were well-known even in the 90s.

stories like this get exaggerated all the time.


can kevin add more muscle in less time than just about anyone in the world? absolutely.

can kevin add 75lbs of lean mass in 12 weeks? no. no. no.


Think about it...it would work out to him adding 6.25lbs of LBM every single week. It's physically impossible regardless of the diet, gear, or genetics.

I could see a one-off story being exaggerated, but this has been seen by many people, many times. Kevin would often take up to 6-8 months off in a year. Yes elite genetics, crazy diet and gear. Many industry professionals have witnessed this.

This, lol at people doubting the stories.

Kevin was/still is on another level when it comes to putting on muscle in a short period of time.

[VaughnTrue]

lot of stories out there saying "x" bodybuilder routinely ate 30k calories a day. or trained for 5 hours a day. Or is 6'4 when in reality he's 5'11. the list goes on and on.

Ok, when you see them, go tell Kevin, Palumbo, Lobliner, Cicherillo, Cormier, and dozens of others you don't believe them. As mentioned it's not a rumor or legend it's common industry knowledge.

until something is substantiated by fact, it is in fact a rumor. plain and simple.



You're acting as if I'm personally attacking Levrone, when in reality he's one of my all time favorite bodybuilders. I'd LOVE to see him win the Olympia, yet at the same time I can sit back and take an objective look at what and what isn't physically possible.

Kevin always grew that fast probably of the higher amount of "supps" then other bb were taking.
Surely his choice.

But the older one gets the less resonsive to "supps".

We will know at the O..

[Armani7]

You all forget he used to grow into shows. He will do lot better than you guys expect.

Wut? How in the world did you come to that conclusion? Kevin's growth was from his genetics. Laws of diminishing returns, doesn't matter how much he was taking, and I HIGHLY doubt it was any different than the amount his peers were using. Do you just come in here on a daily basis to come up with something new to hate on the MMM for?

I think this is an implausible claim and would like to see proof.

It might well be "common knowledge", but such things are often wrong. Millions of people can recall Tom Cruise bouncing up and down on Oprah's couch. Watch the video and it never happens. Millions of people think Darth Vader says "Luke, I am Your Father." Watch The Empire Strikes Back and he never says this.

Sometimes collective memories are false.

Are there any photos of Kevin during the off-season where he looks like he weighs 180lbs?

I search Google for "Kevin Levrone off season" and I get a bunch of pictures like this.



Obviously smaller but he still looks like an IFBB pro.

[TropicalSunset]

I would not trust ANYTHING to do with numbers when it comes to the bodybuilding or fitness industry. It is built on lies, deception and false appearances.

Did Kevin gain a LOT of weight during his prep. FOR SURE. Did he weigh in at 170 in the off-season. Not very likely.

I feel like everyone in the fitness industry is like the old guy at the gym telling you how he used to bench 500 pounds for reps and squat 650 ass to grass when he was younger. Everyone exaggerates.

Yeah I typed this out with my 12 inch dick and I can tell you, A LOT of people lie.

Good post. Anyone else agree that kevin looks like the giant Orc leader that Aragorn fights from the Fellowship of the Ring with that hair. lmao.

He actually looks terrible there. Despite the fact he's fighting a losing battle with this current O appearance, that right there is genetics. Even though he won't place, it's nothing short of amazing.

Pictures never happened either?

[BartPimpson]

Didn't he jump up once and then jump down again?

I think the collective memory is him bouncing on it repeatedly, but I don't know.

[SammyJr]

supposedly for 2002 olympia he was 153 in june before he got to ~250 in september. just shows how what hard work and dedication can do. full blown baby 2016 mr o

Supposedly Ronnie is natural, and it's 100% more likely than levrone being 153 LOL.

Ahhh, the "Mandela effect." I read so much about it just last week after I realized the Berenstein Bears were actually spelled BerenSTAIN Bears. Shattered my mind. I also vivdly remember Mandela dying in prison in the 80s as well.

I still stand by the fact it's BerenSTEIN not STAIN. I'm in the wrong damn reality.

Back on topic though, how significant would muscle memory be to gaining his size back so quickly? It's not like it's new mass he was putting on but mass he had then lost.

Much like Christian Bale going from Machinist to Batman Begins in a matter of months.

[MillerTime07]

I like how Levrone gaining muscle is now basically compared to The Manchurian Candidate. These are not the droids you're looking for. Face it haters, the man is a genetic freak. Look at all the Pro athletes. Imagine if football didn't exist? Bodybuilding would be far more advanced than it is now. Genetic freaks exist. The MMM is one of them.

The Mandela effect is the stupidest conspiracy theory i've heard of in a while.

Lol agreed. I've never once heard from anyone who thought he died in prison. If they paid attention in 6th grade history they'd know better.

and instead of simply admitting they were mistaken, they would prefer to believe that the illuminati traveled back in time and changed history..
