had he not suffered a near death car crash who knows?

**Jack87** · 06-13-2004, 05:25 PM

IMO Flex never worked as hard as he should have to reach his
incrediable potential... He just counted on his super genetics
being enuf for him to win it all... **** shame cus he had what
it took to win the big one...

**decadbal** · 06-13-2004, 06:31 PM

never be half the BBer as ronnie.... ronnies the greatest..

**Dude-Man** · 06-13-2004, 07:57 PM

I think flex was the ultimate in aesthetics, while ronnie is definitely the ultimate in size.

by the way everyone just for future reference, jay cutler sucks.

Agreed, as someone else put it so eloquently: "Jay cutler looks like a refrigerator with arms".

What the hell is Ronnie's successor going to look like? <shudder>

I agree....

Flex looks like his muscles were hand-drawn. The most awesome shaped bellies period.

thats scary to imagine

**sir20** · 06-22-2004, 05:00 PM

I could not have said it better, Flex Wheeler is the most beutiful bodybuilder ever and Ronnie is unbelievable and in my opinion the biggest bodybuilder ever. And yes Jay Cutler sucks Amen to that.

**Prime** · 06-22-2004, 06:01 PM

i have already posted this elsewhere but it shows how truly aesthetic flex was

Flex was the most promising, genetically he was very very gifted. I've heard that he had a variation of that genetic mutation that baby has that everyone was talking about.

**nickrizz** · 07-01-2004, 07:41 PM

you have to read his articles in muscular development, he talks about how he used so much stuff and so much crazy stuff that he almost died so many times, and how he regrets it. his articles are always great reads

Wonder if paul dillet also had that genetic variation

**nickrizz** · 07-02-2004, 06:22 AM

dillet was a freak, he has had so many injuries that he cant compete anymore, but he says he misses it a lot

**PJAY71** · 07-02-2004, 04:47 PM

Dillet was one of the most amazing 6ft+ bodybuilders - probably the best. I'm 6'2", so I gotta give him props.

Never really could hold a pose long enough to show his full potential.

**eacman65** · 07-02-2004, 06:43 PM

yeah that man was incredible

**BodyMechanic** · 07-02-2004, 08:31 PM

Flex definately had the best tools to work with just not the work ethic.

**H-BOL** · 07-02-2004, 08:52 PM

flex was sick .. that all there is to it..

**cjvan** · 07-03-2004, 12:27 AM

My favourite bodybuilder was Rory Liedlelmeyer , what a structure .Saw him compete at the NPC Nationals in San Jose a long time ago , one of the most amazing posing routines ever .Fantastic contest Bob Paris won the heavy wieghts and the overalls , Mike Christian who we knew placed second possibly could have won , Rory third .Rory always had a problem getting lean , liked to ballon to 300 pounds , word was that he had used to much thyroid and it made his dieting very difficult. How amazing was his posing routine ? Carla Dunlap reigning Ms Olympia (i think she was at the time) had to whipe the tears out of her eyes, i was in the 3rd row. The guy had a cult following even though he never did win a major. I still have the tape , think i will watch it tonight for motivation.

Never heard of him, did a search on the net and cant find him anywhere. Got any pics?

**nickrizz** · 07-03-2004, 09:37 AM

i never heard of him either

**Aboot** · 07-03-2004, 10:01 AM

Rory Liedlelmeyer was a huge star a decade or so ago. He was annointed the next big thing but always missed out on his pro card. There's been rumours that his problem was that he just burnt himself out on drugs, staying on cycle way too long and then having his body shut down on him.

In my opinion he was good, but not spectacular.

**cjvan** · 07-03-2004, 12:44 PM

That is his picture in my avatar i will find a few more , it wasn't that he had the best build but he did have a fantastic structure, It was his chrisma which saddly has been very lacking in body building . As stated in my post he lost to Bob Paris and probably deserved to lose to him but pro card? i know some of the North America winners and they defenatly couldn't have beaten Rory . But the over use of thyroid medication brought on huge wieght loss problems. I am guessing he is about 6'1 230 in the avatar picture about 220 contest.
He is below standing with Paul Dillet , I would guess he was over the 260 mark in the picture to even stand with Dillet.
I have been to many a pro and amteur contest and Never seen anyone who could touch his possing , an actual artist on stage. I love the size ronnny Coleman as much as the next guy and of course Rory couldn't touch him but Rory looked the way a bodybuilder should look on the street. a link to some pics ?http://www.tesztoszteron.hu/kep_bong...940a02b55f15bc

And I am str8 .lol .

**Prime** · 07-03-2004, 12:51 PM

Something just doesnt look right about him! A good bodybuilder with tonnes of muscle yeah! But i just dont particularly like his physique.

**cjvan** · 07-03-2004, 01:32 PM

yeah, guess you had to be there when the crowd went crazy at the NPC nationals and the anounncer a radio guy in the area said "My daughter has his picture on her bed room wall " to apprecaite the following this guy had. Like i said he was a cool guy , nice to talk too, smart ,articulate , dressed well at the after party, something that we don't see enough of in body buidling. Met arnold a few times , gave him a ride to the airport cocky as ever but he walked the walk so he was allowed to talk the talk.

**Prime** · 07-03-2004, 01:37 PM

He look sgood in the pic on your avatar, but i dunno, on some of the pics it look like his frame wasnt bigh enough to support all the muscle he was carrying.

**cjvan** · 07-03-2004, 05:29 PM

All the new body builders look like they are over packed with Muscles but at 6'1" pretty hard to be over stuffed with muscles . I have a decent structure but would kill for that kind of should width and arms with that waist size. **** genetics.
