Great read that. I think the bodybuilding pic and training routine would shut a few haters up. He's just a big lazy fat f**ker is something i've heard in the past a good number of times. Always came from someone who he worked about 20 times harder than.

Nice read thanks for re-posting.

It's a shame WSM was more athletic based when Glenn competed.

If it was heavier like now I think he would have done much better. He always lost too many points on the moving events from what I can remember.

Shaw looks massive compared to past Mr Olympia's

I just don't get it?

I mean, people like Cutler and Ronnie bang on about how they eat 100 egg whites per day and a stupid amount of calories to build masses and masses of muscle, plus there's all the PEDs and slin, hgh etc.

But they aren't even that big. Sure in 'proportion' they look enormous but stood next to joe public they just ain't that big. Confused

Would love to have seen how Mark Henry would of faired as a full time strongman.

Obviously he has made a fantastic living but according to many, his freaky strength was unmatched when younger.

He did win an Arnold Classic with apparently minimal training.

They are both retired. Dont recall of either saying they ever ate 100 egg whites a day but back when he was competing coleman had his arms to 23.5 inches in contest shape, around 3%. The average mans arm is 13.5 inches and bodyfat up over 20%. Ronnies arms were in no way out matching any other muscle group.

Comparing these guys to shaw and saying they small could be said for millions of individuals most would consider massive. Brian is literally more the size of a bear than a man.

they are bodybuilders
not naturally big people
without all these muscles they usually have small frames

in terms of pure muscle Ronnie Coleman 2003-2004 was the biggest human ever
AdamT
To be fair Ronnie is not at his biggest in that photo.

Paul you are right. His arms were apparently 23 plus inches on stage at 3% bf. He was also to 300 on stage. At 5'10. He was a freak!

shaw is big but has pretty narrow shoulders and no chest for his frame and has ugly phisique for strongman-powerlifter

thor is blessed with much better genetics and if he is Shaw's weight he will look enormous

I met him at the weekend, I'm a pretty big guy compared to your average person, but stood next to Shaw I looked like a skinny 12 year old. Absolute beast, and a very nice man also

before going into his contest prep ronnie weighed 150kg.
there was one documentary about his life and preparation and he stood on scale his last offseason day.
