Johnny Bravo Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 Fra Flex online: http://www.flexonline.com/news/205Kevin Levrone is returning to competitive bodybuilding. We heard the rumors back in December - rumors that Levrone had requested an invite to the Arnold Classic - but we didn’t believe them. Now, we’re hearing them again. This time, from the man himself. Appearing on Pro Bodybuilding Weekly on Monday, Levrone announced his return to the sport. Sort of. We think.“It’s definitely in my plans to return to bodybuilding and win a Sandow,” Levrone said on the show. “Just like it was in my plans to turn pro. My ultimate goal is to win a Mr. Olympia and that’s what I plan to do. But I got to get started on it very soon, because the clock’s ticking.”How long would it take to get back into contest shape? “Eighteen weeks,” Levrone said.When pressed by hosts Dan Solomon and Bob Chicherillo, on whether or not he could be ready for this year’s Olympia, Levrone answered, “Definitely. I never trained all year round for a Mr. Olympia or any of my competitions after I tore my chest. And I do think I could be ready for the Mr. Olymipa 18 to 20 weeks from now and walk on stage probably around 245 pounds, the same way I left the stage in [2003].”One of the most decorated bodybuilders in the history of the sport, Levrone amassed 20 wins and 18 runner-up finishes in his 12-year professional career. Levrone last competed at the 2003 GNC Show of Strength, where he finished third behind winner Dexter Jackson and Jay Cutler. As for what kind of shape he’s in, well … let’s say Levrone was weighing in at a less-than-Olympia ready 195 pounds when he last stopped by the Weider offices in early January, a far cry from the 250 pounds he carried during his competition days. On PBW, he estimated his weight today to be “around 185 to 190”. But Levrone has a history of miraculous physique transformations. Four months before the 2002 Olympia, Levrone visited the Weider offices on the heels of a hernia operation weighing, by most accounts, all of 210 pounds. At that point in time, not even Nostradamus would have predicted Levrone being a factor at the contest with such little time to prepare. But, fast forward to October 19 and there he was, standing toe-to-toe with Ronnie Coleman before eventually finishing as the runner-up at the biggest bodybuilding show on the planet. Whether or not Levrone can repeat that feat five years later remains to be seen. And then there’s always the possibility that the unpredictable Levrone is a day late in turning his calendar, and maybe he’s having a little fun at our expense. Maybe he decided announcing his return to bodybuilding was a better way to drum up publicity for his upcoming movie, Redline, than say, totaling a one-million dollar Ferrari. We’ll just have to wait and see. Stay tuned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quantanamo Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 Lækkert. Levrone i topform har en af de fedeste fysikker IMO. Håber han kan ramme sin tidligere form.Det lyder i øvrigt vildt at han mener at han kan træne sig op på 18 uger, hvis han vejer under 195 lbs nu. Der skal altså lige tages 20 kg bøf på. Det er lige lidt over et kilo bøf om ugen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

På den anden side, F.eks Gary Strydoms comeback for en del år siden var ikke specielt godt.Hvis Kevin er dedikeret, stadig kan holde til det og er på, så har han stadigt nogen af de vildeste genermen lad os se.. jeg er lidt spændt Edited April 16, 2007 by Blackmoore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salt Posted April 17, 2007 Report Share Posted April 17, 2007 Levrone 4tw. Han var bare så led i BGP 99. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devious Builder Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 Jeg ved godt at Levrone har været noget nær topklasse da han var i topform... meeen.. Hans ryg har aldrig været god nok til at vinde mod Cutler som han står pt. Hans ryg (kevin) er ret bred, men ikke ret tyk og detaljeret.Nogen der er uenige her, og tror han kan lave et wonder comeback? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexipecs Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 (edited) Én ting er i hvert fald sikkert - denne posering fra 1997 er for vild, og jeg har ikke tal på, hvor mange gange jeg har set den igennem.Rent faktisk har han her IMO en af de bedste fysikke nogensinde...(P.S. Benene taler vi ikke om i denne sammenhæng...) Edited April 19, 2007 by Flexipecs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eruption Posted April 19, 2007 Report Share Posted April 19, 2007 Jeg frygter lidt det bliver hans St. Anger. Han tror han er i topform, men han trækker det ud i pinlige 76 minutter, uden definition, mål og nogen balls der er tilnærmelsesvis er lige så store som nutidens helte. Samt selvfølgelig en pæænt irriterende lilletromme.Forhåbentlig ikke. Elsker comebacks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squatfather Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Jeg kan bedre lide hans form som den så ud til British Grand Prix 1999.Mon ikke det primært skyldes lyset ved British Grand Prix 1999? Alle atleterne ser jo helt fantastiske ud til den konkurrence. Umiddelbart vil jeg mene, at Levrone var bedst til følgende konkurrencer; 1992 Night Of Champions, Arnold Schwarzenegger Classic, 2000 Mr Olympia, samt den europæiske Grand Prix Tour i 97. Generelt var Kevin´s ben klart bedst inden hans rygskade i 96. Lidt pics af Levrone fra Ungarns Grand Prix i 97. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MNC Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Fedt hvis han gør alvor af at komme tilbage... Jeg vil mene en af hans bedste shows var 2002 Mr. O. Der var han fandenme i lee' form. Har video'en liggende et sted. Da havde han også være opereret få måneder forinden. Utroligt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Bravo Posted April 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Mon ikke det primært skyldes lyset ved British Grand Prix 1999?Jo bestemt. Lyset ved BGP var helt suveræn, og hvilket man godt kan savne ved nogle af de store konkurrencer. Alle atleterne ser jo helt fantastiske ud til den konkurrence.Der var også mange fantastiske atleter til den konkurrence. Blandt Milos i sin tungeste form nogensinde.

Squatfather Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Et par videoer fra tidligt i Levrone´s karriere. Han er knap så stor som i 99, men hans ben er væsenligt bedre. Desvære er der ingen videoer online fra NOC 92, hvor han virkligt var spitzenklasse. 92 Olympia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
