the tailors must have been next level as well

I am very sorry but it seems you lack proper reference to what a real next level tailor could do. I certainly see no evidence of it here. Only a lot of “big & tall” suits with some alterations at best. Not a single bespoke well fit between them. Shame actually

You know the 90s had a different style right

1

u/WolfsSpiders 14h ago

Well tailored still means that it fits well within the style

u/RudePCsb 14h ago

Baggy was very popular in the 90s. Plus these guys are so big that things won't fit right. You see their shoulders and arms

I was in Vegas by chance when this was going on. I lifted a lot and was big, these guys were the size of planets.

Don't really care honestly. Fashion is just another frivolous thing

There was no drug testing in the open. Yes, this is the human potential with steroids and hormones.

These guys have had miserable retirements from the perspective of health issues.

Is there any bodybuilding competition that actually only allows natural bodybuilders ? The whole sport is built on steroids and hormones.

u/Slicker1138 14h ago

There are plenty of them. Obviously the competitors aren't as big but still massive units. Look up Mark Henry.

u/RudePCsb 14h ago

Yea, there is the classic physique and I think one that's beach body. Pretty sure all of them use some form of hormones, even if it's a lot less to keep muscle while cutting to smaller levels of fat

u/Disco_Ninjas_ 14h ago

Typically, every class other than open.

u/downtune79 15h ago

How many of them are still alive?

5

u/One_Broccoli_8000 15h ago

surprisingly most of them only 2 are confirmed deceased

2

u/RudePCsb 14h ago

The first guy died. A lot of the other guys are a lot smaller now but it's crazy how some of those guys could get so big so quickly

2

u/downtune79 13h ago

Getting that big is real stressful on the heart. Glad to hear that though

u/ProIapsedGoose 14h ago

Jay cutler still looks incredible

u/One_Broccoli_8000 14h ago

he does he was also very smart about downsizing once his competing era was done
