I have been a fan of Lee Priest for a long time. Does anyone else here think that he has been getting screwed over at any of the shows / competitions he has been entered in?
I think pound for pound compared to height, Lee is the biggest bodybuilder around. Yes, even bigger than Officer Ronnie Coleman.
If Lee was the same height as Ronnie, Lee's weight would be at roughly 315-320lbs. in the off season. (calculations done with simple math)
this is a good post for the lounge.....i don't like coleman at all, but lee at his best can't even come close to ronnie at his worst
anymore comments?
lee priest got screwed alright... but not by any judges, it's like a practical joke... great genetics for bb, but he can't drive a car without being propped up on a few phonebooks.
You lost me on that one, bro!
Lee is the Franco of this generation
Can a mod please move this thread.
Lee got second place after Dexter last weekend at the Ironman, im sure his happy with that.
You cant say Lee would be a certain weight if he was taller, it dosent work like that...and who gives a sh!t what a person weighs offseason? A competing BB should only be judged on stage.
its alot easier for a shorter bb'er to look bigger than a taller bb'er because they have a smaller frame to pack muscle onto, they get wider alot easier than someone who is tall. Lee would not be 300+ if he was as tall as ronnie because he would have more spread out muscle than he does now.
It's not as simple as you make it sound either. It's not as though everyone has the same potential muscle mass, and it's "stretched out" or "compacted" based on height. It's just as hard for someone 5 feet tall to gain muscle mass as it is for someone 6'5" to gain mass if their genetic predisposition for muscle size is similar....it's not a function of height.Quote:
