If his upper body matched those legs he'd move up the placings dramatically. Very impressive.Quote:

Not to carve on our fellow Canadian Fouad, as he has always been nice to me... but, am I the only on that thinks he hasnt quite made the improvements that are necessary for him to take things to the next level???
I'd have to see more pictures. His quads look freaky big.Quote:

We miss you.
hes got a nice X frame, but its too early to tell if he'll even make things happen at tampa.
I pm'ed fouad abiad over on Bodybuilding.com and asked him to post over here.

I think what he means is being competitive on stage with the big boys at the Mr. O. I agree he has made huge improvements and looks awesome. What I think BDH was getting at is that there is another level, and he maybe hasn't gotten there yet. Personally, I would need to see more pictures, too hard to tell from only one pose.Quote:

Also, I dont want this to come off like I am not proud of Fouad. As I said before, he has always been cool with me when weve interacted on the boards. Obviously, we all want him to sit atop the throne that seats Mr Olympia. I am just questioning whether he has made the necessary improvements to be competitive.
It would be great if he posted here and gave good free advice,like p.s does.
i believe he has the frame to do well on the Olympia stage, either way even if he qualifies this year I dont think he will be doing the O... he wants to add another 10lbs to his frame at least.. top 10 Mr.O next year? quite possible if you ask me.Quote:

here he is at last years Europa show.. he placed 3rd behind Toney Freeman and Dennis James..
I think he made the improvements to definitely be competitive.. but i dont think he is ready to break out in the top 10 at the O just yet... but with that said, i think he has a great chance of winning a show this year.
Absolutely... and I do wish him the best. I hope he keeps improving and kicks the shit out of everyone. I just dont think hes at the level to make waves at the O just yet. Heres to me being proven wrong.Quote:

I agree, hes not at the O level quite yet.. "but who is?" besides the eliteQuote:

Hope the best for him and respect for sure...
I ran into him before the Montreal Pro at my old gym and his arms are freakishly bigQuote:

I also wanted to touch on BDH's comments. He is a complete jackass and has no idea what he is talking about...sorry bad jk.
In all honesty, he is totally right. I have made some improvements and I had an okay offseason but not as successful as I would have like for some different reasons. The main reason being small injuries throughout the year.
Some improvements are fuller legs, shoulders, chest and back. Not necessarily bigger but more complete and more full. So my weight might only be a few pounds heavier than last year but I expect to have a different look this year. Finally just so you can all say I said it myself. I am not ready to stand with the top ten at the O, I think I need another year without injury to get into that spot.
That being said I am going into Tampa with the mindset of being able to compare with Dennis James and at least get a good look with Toney Freeman. No predictions but I am aiming for a top spot.
Thanks to all of you for the support and kind words.
^ Very humble. Congrats on the success and good luck!
Thanks for stopping by, bro... so many of the members here, including myself, look up to you and are eager to take anything we can from your vast experience and apply it to our own lives...Quote:
