ITT: Natty Inspiration

[soccerdad5]

Great thread.....so many great physiques and guys working their butts off.

Thought maybe I'd give ya a peek at a couple of us "older" folk and show ya that life aint over after 50!

All up...there's close to 120 years here...

Tony Haranas on left - Aussie >50 Champ and me on the right, >60 title holder

All I can say is "WOW!"

[red_cat]

Been mirin a poster at my gym for a while with Ben Tennessen on it hitting a side chest. Ridiculous thickness all over. That's been my motivation every time I get a drink from the water fountain.

Thats awesome to have that pic up at your gym! Dude is a BEAST!

Yeah. It's great that the owners put all the posters up for shows that are in the states around Nebraska. Always plenty of natty pros staring me right in the face!!!

Jeff Rodriguez

Surprised that no one posted any pics of him yet.

[visionz1234]

The thickness of jrod's tricep in that side tri shot....what the

[xKyle10]

J Rod pics recent? Look old. Unless he's just less conditioned now. Usually looks better IMO. Fuller and more conditioned. Looks like wheels blew up, wtf

[greekmanman]

Dude's always huge in the offseason and I think he loses some size getting diced. He kept it bigger this year and won an npc show as a light heavy and then did the team U just this weekend as a light heavy. Definitely not near as conditioned but dat thickness...dunno if these pics are from prior to this weekend or not.

Placement? His wheels REALLY blew up but I don't think his tris are as feathered as they have been in the past, unless that's just the pics, as insane as that is lol.

If anyone is unaware on Jeff, watch this, hnnnnng. Really wish he would cross over and do the Yorton, someone needs to get on his ass for that. Him + Ricardo Jr + Cleveland Thomas + Miller on the same stage, got dayum

Is that down for anyone else? Vid won't load, that's where I first learned about t-bar rows though.

^Last update said he competed at the Costa and won light heavies like you said, what are Team U results?

[extremenergy3]

Team U for JRod was 2nd in the light heavies. Glad he was tired of losing solid lean body mass to reach the middle weights for the past 5 years...

he has amazing thickness for a natty. just goes to show you what a lifetime of filling out a big frame can do

thinking about making a tall natty motivational thread for the misc, he'll deffinitely be in it!

wow, that is amazing. your color and conditioning are awesome, probably the most inspirational thing in this thread IMO, physique does not look a day over 30 tops and mean that in the best way possible

Thanx...much appreciated!

Hopefully this years version of me is a better one!
