In 1985, biosynthetic human growth hormone replaced pituitary-derived human growth hormone for therapeutic use in the U.S. and elsewhere. I'm sure it was extremely expensive back then, so I doubt...

Actually it's not that difficult to prove your theory. If you are correct, then a bodybuilder with a distended gut sporting under 10% subcutaneous body fat (determined by pinch calipers) will...

Actually, after reading this thread again a couple of years later, I should add that my knees were screwed from a couple of motorcycle accidents, not from squatting. A severely fractured femur and...

I agree. I remember years ago a guy in my gym who was paraplegic and confined to a wheelchair had very decent arm development.

I reckon you can squat till the cows come home without putting a mm...

If you use a bench row and keep the chin glued to the bench it can be determined how strong the back really is compared to the chest provided the bench press is also performed performed strictly. I...

That may only work if the person has Celiac disease, which is only one cause of many for distended abdomens.

This is an old thread, but someone may be interested.

Last year I had a bodyfat level just on 11% using pinch calipers in 9 places. Hopped in a tank to be weighted hydro statically and came out at...

Could you please explain why the defending champ has a slight edge?

I believe Cutler has already reached his peak and he'll have a very difficult time this year to hold on. I'll give him about a...

How can waste money if you don't spend money.

Give the OP a break. He obviously meant "intend".

The main problem with narrow stance squats is that it is very hard on the knees compared to wide stance. The knees do a lot more work and take a hell of a lot more stress. Take this from an old guy...

That all depends on how tall you are. Calves can't be big enough IMO because it's the only visible muscle to fill out the leg from the knee to the foot. Anything less than large doesn't cut it. Mine...

You mean "off cycle". I don't think Jay would go off everything.

I gave you some good examples of not-thin-waisted bodybuilders who took the top crown for a total of 17 years combined and you're still coming back with ****ing stupid comments.

The judges don't...

Any waist around 32" or less is skinny. That's about the size of top bodybuilder's quads these days.

Dexter has great mid-section, but it's hardly a wasp thin mid-section as portrayed by Buchanon.

You GTFO. Just because you like looking at feminine tiny waists on men doesn't mean we all so. Bodybuilding is making a well developed waist look small in comparison to a huge chest and back....

IMO people are getting too excited about femine body traits. A tiny waist line is a femine trait.

A V-taper coming about from a very small waist is not very impressive for a man. A V-taper built...

I can't believe some of you think he's looking great. I don't reckon he looks much better than an average 62 year old. There's plenty of 62 year old plus guys in my gym who look a lot better.

You...

I keep hearing this nonsense all the tiime. They give it to the highest point scorer. That's why they have a panel of judges scoring the event.

Branch got 46, Dexter 47. They couldn't even give...

Yeah, that's weird. I thought it was intuitive that an arm should be measured flexed. I've believed that for 33 years. I've seen dozens of photos with tape measures around flexed arms.
