Ahmad Haidar at the Night Of champions

[catmando]

A well-deserved 4th place. Looks like he hit all his parameters right on the money for this show. His abs are the best in the business, look at that shot in the photo gallery of him down on his left knee, his left arm behind his head. No one has abs like that!!!

And it looks like the rest of his body has caught up to his magnificent midsection. Excellent symmetry of all body parts. The only negative thing I see is his relatively weak forearms. Other than that, he was outstanding IMHO.

It's great to see a new face and body do so well so quickly, especially being from Lebanon, where they just don't have the bodybuilding culture we have here.

I believe Ahmad Haidar will ultimately surpass the other great Middle Eastern bodybuilders such as Bannout, Sonbatty et al.

Hes got a great midsection bro but his abs are a victim of the same tragedy as Gunter's physique: hype. Some pro somewhere said "Damn hes got great abs." and everyone jumped on the bandwagon. I thin Dexter Jackson and Richard Jones have the most balanced abs in the business. Ahmad has the deepest abs, but not the best. Remember, bigger isnt always better...greg kovacs hsa set that example many times.

Even though it is a small country (3.7 million inhabitants), Lebanon definitely has an important bbing culture; probably one of the most pronounced in the whole Middle Eastern region.
