    At 6 ft 5 weighing 243lbs and i'd guess joshua is around 10% bodyfat....? his Fat free mass index comes in at 26.1. 25 is seen as elite genetics and even then you'll really struggle to find people who can hit 25 without drugs. If somebodys number is over 25 its fairly obvious they are taking something..

    Yes, exactly. And Joshua is too tall to have that level of musculature.

    A 5'10" guy with that amount of muscle would look like a roided out monster.

    At 6'6" it almost looks reasonable, but that's only because it's so spread over his frame.

    For reference, he weighs more than Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Arnold has admitted to steroids openly.

    does this give him an edge or is it just to look good on the beach?

    Google: Best Answer: Masai males average 6'5" females 6'0".-so average would be 6'2.5".They are considered the tallest of African tribes.

    Ah I just love powning your little dumb uneducated a**.

    You would get a massive edge. The CNS recovery from the androgen's alone would be signifigant allowing for faster recovery and heightened reaction time.

    Another little nugget to choke on for my < 75 IQ friends here:

    At the Seoul Olympics in 1988, Kenya shocked the running world when it's top male runners won the 800m, 1500m and 5,000 meters, plus the 3,000-meter steeplechase. Based on population percentages alone, the likelihood of such a performance is one in 1.6 billion

    Yes genetics mean nothing! Move along, kids!

    The highest possible FFMI a human can achieve naturally is around 25, and that's with absolutely top notch genetics and dedicating yourself entirely to muscle building with no other considerations. Joshua's is around 26.5 (at an estimate 10% bodyfat).

    To have a remotely feasible FFMI Joshua would need to be in the 20% bodyfat range, but if that were the case he wouldn't look anywhere near as ripped or lean as he does. Too many things just don't add up.

    I have no clue who is on what, all I can say is I promise I never touched roids ever, or any PED, I was always scared shytless of roids thinking they would shrink my package and the chicks would all laugh instead of run.

    With that said, when I was boxing (years ago) I was accused of taking roids many a time and why?

    my body always looked like I was into body building, even at 7 years old I had little pecs. By 18 I was a monster just from push ups, sit ups and chin ups. A doctor even accused me to my face in front of many that I was on roids and laughed in my face when I denied them.

    The only thing that stopped it was I wasn't that good of a boxer so as soon as I started getting my head kicked in nobody cared anymore :!: :lol:

    besides bragging whats my point?

    Even for a guy like AJ I wont assume he is for sure doing ROIDs until he tests positive because some dudes just have natural body building type of bodys without taking ROIDs.

    Does that mean AJ is clean? Nope, I just wont pre-judge him on looks alone.
