I just found this video.
When was this sh!t filmed? Now or back in his 1990's dayz? Because if its new training footage he might be returning to the Mr Olympia real soon!!

It's old footage. Back doesn't compare to the GOAT though.

Flex had a good back, but far from worthy of being the greatest back ever.
He was placed 13th in an article about the 20 best backs of all time.

Oddly enough, they put him below Robby Robinson and Benaziza.
There's no Kai or Phil in the article neither.

Flex's back always looked narrow to me and not very thick. Detailed though, yes.

Certainly not the greatest back ever, but his BDB is great.

Flex's back WASN'T the best ever, but I DO believe it's underrated and/or underappreciated. It was pretty good.

Wheres the option in the poll for "In the future?"
Spike92 is 15.
^ place this in your sig to remind the world that Spike92 is indeed 15 and will never be anything other than 15.
When im not hungry I eat. When Im tired I train. When I feel like giving up I push harder.

I really dislike wheeler's back honestly! Dorian, Phil, Kai, Vic, and even some fresh/lower tier pros have a more appealing back to me!
