Even in his mass monster mode, flex still so aesthetic, crazy..
So crazy to think that while they were here training with Charles in the best gym in the world at that time, Ronnie was in Texas training in a sweat box on beat up, rusty equipment.
Ronnie was a BEAST that's why
Ronnie trained like an animal..he was a man who beat all odds
To say sweat box would be a bit of an exaggeration, Metroflex was as polished as a commercial gym could be in ‘99 . Ronnie was definitely not in some barn training.
@@executiverobbery Lmao you gotta be trolling. Metro has been in the same old industrial park since the day opened. No air or heat. I’ve lived in Arlington my entire life and can assure you it’s ALWAYS been grungy and hardcore
@@daedevillewrestlingI personally love old school gyms.
Flex Wheeler had an Amazing physique. Flex Wheeler’s physique was way ahead of the competition. Chris Cormier and Tom Prince alike are great champions. Rip Tom Prince. You are not forgotten Champ.
Everyone says he’s a nice guy, But as far as his training and what he used for supplementation I’ve heard a hundred different things.
I wouldn´t say he was ahead of the competition in terms of mass/development of the body. But the roundness of his muscles gave him an almost unbeatable look of a bodybuilding cartoon. The only problem was that Coleman´s muscles were very round aswell, and bigger....
he had a great physique that he ruined later on in his career and never worked hard enough to compete properly shredded like his competition.
Unbeatable physique? oh please. It could've been but that's projection, as he was, his physique was definitely beatable and that's translated in his placings.
STEROID LOSERS!
Stay natural buddy!
Flex's back while he's doing T-bar rows looks absolutely INSANE
Deadlift too..
Flex never won the Olympia but for me he had the best physique of all time.
Ronnie said he just didnt had the dedication
@@arslaanpasha3334 All that matters is the quality of the physique, whichever way its built and to my eyes Flex was the best.
@@streetspirit956exactly people are blind
I was there, brings back memories. Was in my early twenties, living in Venice and training at Gold’s. One day Charles walked up to me and my friend and says to her, “This guy’s got great shoulders.” That was a good moment.
Damn that must have felt good coming from him. It’s crazy how a few words from people you respect can change your life or perspective on yourself.
I watch at least 5 of these videos a day if not one of the full ones you guys put up. They just never get old.
Great to hear! You have tons to choose from on this channel now.
@@stitchthisditchthat259 😆
Yes siir
@@stitchthisditchthat259 the gym and those old school videos wont leave you man.. :)
@@stitchthisditchthat259 so you have nothing to worry about being alone with no wife and kids or even a girlfriend right?
Flex was absolutely unreal
yes indeed mate
The difference between Chris and Flex shoulders was overwhelming. Flex shoulders were amazing!
and full of oil.
flex had 3D like shoulders unreal!
the good ole days, levrone was training at our gym, he asked me if i had any ideas f o r a posing song. he was really impressive in person, nice fella though. i never bothered him though. he came backstage and congratulated my brother when won the Maryland in 93. i miss those days very much. 58 now still hittin it. kevin was doing lying leg curls one day and they looked like quarter horse hams , race horse , it was hard to comprehend how huge and separated they were. he looked like was around 280 imo, it was the best i ever seen his legs. i forget what year it was, but he trained at our gym the POWERHOUSE GYM in linthicum Md.
He also comes up to Exile fitness in Baltimore on route 40
Thanks for the video Bruce!!!! Olympia 99 was one of the greatest Olympias of all time
You’re welcome!
Maybe the greatest man...
Maybe? Imo it was the greatest by far
@@willthomas7666 wish my boy gunter was in it would have made it even more unreal!
Flex always said Chris Cormier was the strongest training partner he ever had. I believe it.
flex wheeler deserves at least five times Mr Olympia
Flex arms were insane!
Oil
I watched those video so many time i can remember unknown ppl and music on the background.
Thanks for uploading all these battle for the Olympias, I love it
You’re welcome! 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Can never getting enough of those guys, that was then and this is now, I feel sorry for flex, is a good dude 😉 ❤️
Flex looks very depleted. Insanely round, Sultan of Symmetry
After watching this video I can’t see how Flex didn’t win at least 1 Mr.O
Because,you have not watched Ronie coleman (at his prime) who was his competition in some of those Mr.O, Flex undoubtedly was awesome but Ronie was even better.Nobody on earth there were or are who (also in their peak shape)could beat him in his absolute prime.
I seen all of Ronnie’s the very 1st one Tonnie won flex could’ve taken that 1
Which year do you mean by " the very first one"?
Is it the 1998 mr o?, if it is then too i would disagree, because flex might have won (you are right here) if only there was nobody called Ronie as his competition.
1998 was flexs sandow trophy!
In the 90's everyone had a gym membership trying to get to these guys level
My guess is Flex is loading the T'bar with 10kg plates for greater range of motion. Doesn't look heavy, 50-60kg.
Glass is always promoting quality over quantity.
Still I've never seen Flex push or lift heavy lb's, his form is always spot on.
That was so educational.
Flex looked unreal
There it is! Best BFTO ever 😁😁
Thanks MOC! 🙏🤝
Bfto?
Moc?
@@SHORTS_N_SHIRTS Battle For The Olympia series, made by Mitsuru OCabe ?
Ty broooo
CHRIS CORMIER is one of my all time favorite body builders, but NOBODY had a body like FLEX WHEELER!! NOBODY!! I often wonder how much did MR. GLASS charge them for coaching.
Chris’s back looked on point with the close grip pull downs. But yea, flex was in a league of his own!!
I wondered the same thing
At the very end I had to replay it 3x just to make sure. FLEX Was eating 15oz of Turkey every 3hrs lol
Thanks , MOC Video is Best
🙏🏻🙏🏻
Flex should have never touched synthol! It totally ruined his symmetry, he had the best physique in the history of bodybuilding.
The 1999 Mr. Olympia contest.
My man Jay Cutler was in 14th place
.";-)
All the greats
Charles Glass always there for ya
Shiiit it’s just legendary 3 gods in one frame , just like the dad and his sons 💜✨
Flex had a phenomenal back great proportions overall
Seeing these guys lift their tiny weights compared to Coleman makes me realize why Ronnie was so much bigger from the rest of the pack. It also makes me understand why Ronnie has screws in his spine and is unable to walk.
Well flex lost his leg due to the kidney destruction as well
It was genetic. Ronnie was just doing insane amounts of weight for years and messed him up it's different.
Because with Charles Glass the system is very soft and look for the focus and the location of the muscle than heavy weight
@@marcosoterovaleta4142 love charles but i would have preferred the great Milos sarcev giant set routine instead
Tom Prince looking HUGE here RIP 🙏
The Sultan of Symmetry baby please...
Is fun to watch back old school time training. Today's training mostly half reps that's it
Flex le plus belle athlétes des années 90 a 2000🤩
didnt know Snoop Dogg used to be a pro coach
Me encanta el sonido del gym😘💖❤💝😍🔥
Flex back muscles look crazy
Flex is a god here
If only Chris would have taken things more serious. He would have at least had 2 or 3 Arnold Classic titles. Maybe even an Olympia.
Look how clean, full, round and dense the muscles were, unlike today. Today's bodybuilders look like bloated noodles.
They clearly rely wayyy too much on drugs (insulin and hgh)
Amazing arms 🦾
9:25 got the lady saying "Oh my GOd"
Flex should have one a couple of Olympias at least. He looks how people actually dream of looking. Few strive, or dream about having a bubble gut. Damn "mass monsters" look like pregnant ninja turtles. Even Ronny and his gut was out of control at times. Mass monsters set bodybuilding back atleast a decade, maybe more.
neither Yates nor Coleman had bubble guts in 1993, 1998 and 1999. Far from it.
Flex was small and soft, no amount of abs was going to change it. Bodybuilding is a sport of rules and has distinct judging criteria, who you as a viewer would rather look like IS IRRELEVANT.
I also would look like Flex rather than look like Ronnie or Yates but I'm not ignorant and arrogant enough to claim that Flex ever deserved to beat them. 1993 Yates and 1999 Ronnie is greatness at its peak, 2 best versions of 2 best bodybuilders to ever live.
flex should have won atleast 1998
Flex should have worked harder, foh.
MOC Video is Best
When Snoop Dogg prepares you for the Olympia you should win
Nice cool bro
Flex se merecía un Ms Olimpia
I need those Lats bro!💪
None of these guys can't train hard like Dorian, even tho Chris tried 😂
@johnnyruledge6134 loool hater
@@albertomartincarcamo2380 not even trying to hate tho. Dorians mid section was awful and made him look blocky
flex never enjoyed training. It looked like a painful time, he was just doing reps mechanically, stopping when the countdown was over. His training was soulless.
This is true my man, Flex had potential to be Mr. Olympia, but never trained to be one
perhaps. but he was prob quite depleted here being less than 2 weeks from the show
Many athletes with personal trainers got that problem.
@@eli2697 exactly, and also flex had a rare kidney disease that I’m sure was taking away energy. Plus he was doing the routine Charles glass wanted him to do with a certain amount of reps. Ppl just love to hate
A man that didn’t enjoy training wouldn’t look like that.
Two gorgeous bodies on these guys, woof
Красавцы
Tom prince!! Wow good cameo
8:45 alguien sabe como se llama este ejercicio para espalda ? o es solo peso muerto ?
👍💯💪I like.
rip tom prince
For everyone who's saying flex never enjoyed training
Flex used to go on zero carbs while prepping up
So its obvious
For someone who's that big and the mental pressure of being top was there
Obviously being depleted increases cortisol that's why he was not enjoying lol
And its war not a thing to enjoy
No wonder Flex never got it! He does 1/2 ass chin ups and all that ish.
Chris Cormier has an amazing body and Flex makes him look like an amateur
No, chris was better at olympia 99 should have place 2nd
He isn´t really better from a sports perspective. He wasn´t even more massive. But his muscles were unbelievably round. Bodybuilding is 90% genetics.
Flex wheeler your old friend from middle school Gomez saying congratulations what you done you might not be Mr Olympic you're better than that when they line you up with the Stars you are a star when the best could talk about you ain't nothing they could touch about you knowing that you wanted to be a bodybuilder when you're in 3rd grade I was there standing next to you when you told our teacher that you're going to be a bodybuilder but the little secret is you were doing something that nobody knew you were doing what I mean you and the teacher knows anybody wants to know I'll tell you first to remind you first before I say anything congratulations my brother from the Westside
The site enhancement oil is so obvious in his shoulders, bis and tris
Rip Tom prince 🙏🏾🕊
Flex overdoing the delt and bicep oil. Very obvious on lat pull down when compared to Chris’s less oiled muscle fibres.
Como um cara como Flex nunca levou um Olympia? A IFBB é uma federação de cartas marcadas desde a década de 60, atletas como Oliva e Nubret também foram muito prejudicados
Saw the Barbarian Brother in the back. Not sure which one.
Charles Glass on it!
10:10 What is the wristwatch for in training ?? Everywhere in the Gym there is a big clock hanging on the wall !!😝😝😝
Back in the day you had to have a nice watch, gold bracelet, thick gold chain around the neck and a couple of rings on your fingers to make it right. And don't forget the expensive shoes as well.
Those were the unspoken rules back then and one more thing...you had to be a member of the 405-bench club minimum just to have your propers.
Back then bodybuilding was one of the top sports. Everybody tuned in to see who won the Olympia & Arnolds. The 1st thing you did was run to the supermarket and look at the magazines for pictures.
It's totally different now, in AMERICA. In other countries it's still huge, but here assess to sooo many PEDs has made the bodybuilding look so easy to get.
Doing back, flexing chest in the mirror. 😏 I can relate.
Video starts @ 3:16
Damn, I like Flex's physique better than Ronnie
charles glass!!!
Charles glass adalah seorang maestro otot , 👍
Flex got the best body
He has no more legs ,poor thing ! Where does that come from ?!
Man, you can see the quality muslces back than of the top bodybuilders in the 90's. now it is just so much water and blown up with bubble bellys.
7:42 you can tell Flex pute some oil in his arms. They look lifeless.
Who know 🧐
Flex Wheeler not be mister Olympia was a disgrace so unrated !
The pull-ups aren't full range, even the forehead doesn't reach the bar. But it seems they do it on purpose. Any ideas why?
@2.00 fucken huge Tom Prince
The juice heads
hi
Eu não sabia q o Bob Marley era Colt deles 🤭
why should you wear a watch, while working out?
To check the time duh
Why would you wear a watch in your profile picture?
@@Farquad76.547 Why would you pretend to be a tree in your profil picture?
The physiques were better back in the 90s
WHAT FLEX EAT AT END? RICE AND TURKEY?
Rice and tren
Watching this video makes it pretty clear why Ronnie smoked these guys.
Difference how flex and Ronnie trained with weights. Ronnie achieved that granite dry thick muscle from all the heavy weight.
Phenomenal physiques right there, my only concern is if the sport is natural, why is it that they don't age gracefully, they develope serious health issues in their later lives.💯%
Who told you it was natural?..lol
I meant to say you tube clitching and unsubbing people
마지막 김치볶음밥 맛있겠다
Chris was a lot better bodybuilder than wheeler. He just doesn't get the credit
Dudes are lifting paper weights compared to Ronnie
I just have to laugh at Flex's overly dramatic demeanor. It's like c'mon, dude. I know it was his profession, but it wasn't brain surgery.
Cmon Arnold won 7 olimpias and flex not even one?? Cmon
You can see the feathering in Cormiers triceps when he's rowing. In contrast Flex's arms look lumpy and swollen. Most likely oil.
