-Some people say good things come to those who wait, truth is, good things come to those who work..... who work later.....who work harder...... who are willing to go further than anyone else to get them. If you're waiting for good things to come to you, you'll be waiting for a pretty long time.

Having flabs doesnt mean you are 10% bodyfat.
Really muscular dudes can have an ab outline even at 20%.

Given the amount of muscle he is carrying, his BF% will be lower than an average person of the same visible leanness.

Let's do some quick maths here brah. Everything I found said he weighed between 260 and 270 at his competition weight. So let's say 265 @ 8% BF. 265 × 0.08 = 21.2# of bodyfat on stage. I think we can all agree those are fair numbers, yeah?

He started playing the Hulk 2 years after his last Olympia appearance. Do you really think he gained 35+ pounds of pure fat in that 2 year span?

As someone else said, he was also covered in a thick layer of paint that would hide a lot of muscle separation and make him look softer than he actually was.

10% is a joke, but 15% is a reasonable assessment.

and his 16% bodyfat is more like 23%.
At 15% you already have a defined chest, that dude has borderline man boobs and a huge gut.


this is a legit representation of 15% bodyfat.

This guy gets it. You can't compare someone who is 6'5" and 300# with Mr Olympia level muscle tissue vs an everyday gym rat who is 6' and 200# and expect them to look the same at 15% BF.

Skip to 9:45 in this video, Bryan Shaw carries a LOT of bodyfat but a dexa scan had him at 22% because he also carries a ridiculous amount of lean mass.

This.

He has some ridiculous veins in his arms and striations in his chest. You typically don't see that at >15% bf

Here's an image that shows a little more:



He might not have super visible abs, but he never really did have the best midsection and they caked on the paint.
