Kai Greene was known as one of the great natural bodybuilders because of his dominance in the 90's when he dominated the WNBF, now that he's an IFBB pro do you thnk that he is still natural???
Do you think he was a natural during his dominance of the WNBF in the 90's. In the latest edition of Natural Bodybuilding Magazine they mention him as one of the great one's, but now that he's an IFBB pro it seems that his dominance and drug-free life in the WNBF is questionable (at least to me).
What are you guys thoughts on this?
Does anyone have any pics from his days in the WNBF?

here is one of the quotes i found by him when asked about being natural
I’d like to get to a point where I am not considered natural by myself. When I say that I mean that I don’t want to fit within the guidelines of what other people feel it is to be natural. If people feel that natural bodybuilders usually are the ones who lack legs or have poor body parts or don’t train very hard or aren’t very strong or aren’t very intense, if that’s your perception of what a natural bodybuilder is, then that’s not what I want to be. If you accuse me of being on drugs because I’m very focused on what I do, because I’m very serious, because I’m very hungry, because I can squat 800 lbs, because I can bench 500 lbs, because I can press 315 behind my neck, and if these things don’t fit under what you consider to be natural, then I don’t want to be a natural. I don’t want to be what you depict as a natural. I want to define myself for me. For me I’m natural not because somebody else believes I’m natural, I’m natural because I don’t use steroids, I don’t use growth hormone, I don’t use any of those enhancers. I’m natural in my own right because I don’t do that and not because other people accept the fact that I’m natural or not.TEAM NORTON

I believe there are some honest people out there. And he's on the smaller end for a pro.

he turned pro at Team Universe a couple of years ago...his body doesn't seem like it's changed much since then, so I dunno. but then again, Team Universe "natural" isn't quite the same as WNBF "natural"

if he is natural, I'll eat my words, but that is the biggest cut belly I've ever seen on a 'natural'

Sounds to me that he feels guilty about lying about something...
Anyone who goes off into a tangent like that...

I agree...I am going to have to call BS on the natural thing. He sounds as if he is trying to split hairs. I have yet to see anyone with his size or thickness who has not used some substance which would prohibit them from honestly referring to themselves as natural. Either way...I could care less.

Looks huge if he's natural, but it's definitely questionable .. Check out his peaks from the back dbl bi, crazy.

I don't know, I think he could be natural. Maybe it's just me but he doesn't seem that impressive to me. He has some good size, but I think I've seen more impressive physiques at an NPC national qualifier I was at this weekend. And I know there not natural either, but I just don'g see this guy as being so freaky that he couldn't be natural.

He must have amazing genetics to look like that, but I'm not saying it's impossible. Check out Rob Hope from the 2005 worlds....

I was only looking for opinions and to spread the fact that Kai Greene is/was a Pro natural bodybuilder in the IFBB which is a plus for naturals everywhere.ARMY VET, POLICE OFFICER,SHEEPDOG

well the thing is, there are a lot of people who *are* truly natural and it is tough to find a "role model" so to speak, which clearly defines the upper limits of "naturally developed"
i.e. I, as a non-steroid using guy, can't really look to Ronnie Coleman as "the guy I want to look like". It's obviously not going to happen without some pharmaceutical assistance.
Is Rob Hope fully natural? maybe, maybe not. i'm rooting for him if he is, because he looks phenominal. Is Kai Greene natural? Dunno. Maybe steroid free, but that is quite a large midsection for a ripped guy. Take a look at Layne's midsection, and then Kai Greene, and tell me the difference.

wtf??
as a fan of bodybuilding i am asking...is that too much to understand.
it might be his problem, but as a fan i think it would be great to know that an IFBB Pro is natural, it gives hope to those guys who want to be natural a natural pro in the ifbb and it tells people that they can get a great physique naturally.ARMY VET, POLICE OFFICER,SHEEPDOG
