He didn't really stick with it and obviously things didn't end well for him with all the chit he was putting in his body, but if anyone finds some of the pics he posted from that phase there are few people on the misc that would be as big/bigger.
Your bar is set so low. He looks like an average gym bro that hopped on the gas.

For a non-natty, his physique is average at best.

He definitely wasn’t small right before he died, maybe small for the amount of gear he was running. Dude had great insertions and would have looked good with any amount of muscle.

That's what happens when you want to party, not train hard, but still look better than you should, I guess.

How does that make any sense, of course dosage matters. A pro is going to take much higher amounts than an average gym rat.

zeez was awesome and so was the aesthetics crew. I was here when it was in its peak. I was active during peak misc years. I really miss those days because I had so much hope, drive and ambition. I was completely oblivious to the devastation caused by my circumcision back then. I would do anything to go back in time to around 2006 to tell you the truth. that might not be enough though because I'd still be circumcised. genital cutting is one of the highest forms of human cruelty. I wonder if zyzz was intact or lynched now, its a thought that never occurred to me back in those days.

I think your perspective is altered. And tbh, without current pics of yourself or some examples of non-natty physiques that you are impressed by (but also not too big since you don't like bodybuilders...you sure do like porridge don't you?), I kind of am smelling some trolling from this thread.

Natty or not, once a 6'0 to 6'3" person gets into the 220+ rangeand misc-standards lean, they are vastly larger than "average" gym bros.

Edit: now I understand (after you posted your opinions) - your perspective issignificantlyaltered because the physiques you prefer (and I am guessing yours as well if you actually are "big" and not natty...) put zero effort into aesthetics or being lean while big. Klokov is the leanest of the list you mentioned and he is pointedly not as lean as zyzz was.

He wasn’t huge by any means. But he had good insertions and was lean, and when you have both of those you can appear much bigger than you really are.

The great thing about actually having muscles is that you don't need to be super lean to look awesome. And guess what? You still look like you lift when you have a shirt on.

I've been as high as 255 lbs. Chill at 230 ish now.

I used to like zyzz physique years ago while he was alive, plus we were about the same age, and I'm attracted to plenty of the girls he had. It's just that I dont dig wanting that much attention to myself anymore from my body because I've gotten pretty unfriendly over the years.

If I had zyzz physique I'd go through many people bothering me everywhere I go, women not seeing me as a boyfriend & only using me for sex, and guys wanting to fight because I lift to look better than everyone and I never put a shirt on!!! Who really wants that life? I'd rather go places covered up and go unnoticed like frank zane did when he had one of the greatest physiques of all time! Zane was a good guy and a true legend!!

He had wide shoulders and looked great in those pics when he was at his biggest

Unfortunately any positive influence zzyz had while alive is negated by the fact that without him we'd never have had chestbrah.

It was more so the absolute perfection of his genetics.

His abs were goat, chest was goat, back and traps were epic plus he's 6'2 so he just had that aura around him.

Now you look at the new best physique in Mike Thurston, yeah he's big but his body doesn't flow as well as zyzzs did. He's very blocky

People ITT are missing the point. Arguing about his size, his weight, etc.


Thats irrelevant. He didn’t excel for his size or for how lean he was. Genetically, his muscle and bone structure was ELITE. Dude would outslay anybody ITT at 170-190-210 lbs doesn’t matter. His waist, his Adonis belt, his pec insertions, his shoulders, fukin everything was on point.

Nobody on this thread could look half as good even with all the gear and dieting on the world.
"The flowers bloom, then wither... The stars shine and one day become extinct. This earth, the sun, the galaxies and even the big universe, someday will be destroyed. Compared with that, the human life is only a blink, just a little time. In that short time - people are born, laugh, cry, fight, are injured, feel joy, sadness, hate someone, love someone. All in just a moment. And then, are embraced by the eternal sleep called death."
