Catastrophe

My hard drive has crashed.

It will take a few days to get a new one and get it up and running.

I hope (fingers crossed) to be fully functioning by the weekend.

Please continue to comment on posts.

Wouldn't you know, I just sold my laptop (which I hardly used over the past year) and got a pretty good price for it. The next day my desktop crashes. A half step forward, a full step back, I guess.

Anyway, I'll continue to monitor the site and maybe post some pics and vids from the WWW.

From the Web

Marcel, last name unknown, by Hans Fahrmeyer

Jimbo Collins

Armon Abidi

Max Fairchild in the gym.

A Lee Priest video

Sorry, no scans today. Enjoy this video of Lee Priest posing. I don't know how old it is but Lee looks great here.

More Ruhl & Warren

There's a lot of beef here.

Josh Bergeron video

A pretty good video I found of Josh. I just wish I had some scans of him to accompany it.

Mike & Mark one more time

Mark Alvisi and Michael Liberatore showing the fruits of their labor.

Scanned from photos by Per Bernal.

Mike & Mark

More pics from the wheels workout of Michael Liberatore and Mark Alvisi.

A commenter has mentioned that these pics would look better without whatever effect was used to smooth them and I agree. I think Per Bernal, the photographer, was going for color and action. I'd have preferred more clarity and detail.

Mark & Mike

From an article in Muscular Development:

"At the 2008 NPC Nationals, Mark Alvisi and Mike Liberatore were the last two heavyweights standing. And both were standing on some pretty impressive wheels. We got these equally-matched rivals together a few days later to push each other through a hellacious leg workout -- and give us the lowdown on how they whack their wheels for wicked size, shape, and cuts!"

Here are some pics from that workout. Photos by Per Bernal.

A little more Wolf and a sneak peek

Some more scans of Dennis from photos by Per Bernal.

And a look at what's coming: Michael Liberatore & Mark Alvisi training together (photos also by Per Bernal).

Yet more Dennis Wolf

Too many scans of Dennis? Let me know.

and

Ben Pakulski scanned from a Robert Reiff photo.

I'm back

I'm back from an impromptu vacation.

I had meant to post a few pics during the week but I had no private access to a computer.

Anyway, enjoy the next post.

A couple of shots of Mark Dugdale

The first is by Robert Reiff, the second by Ralph Dahaan.
