Most Improved Bodybuilders of the 2000's

[Dezzy]

I've always had a lot of admiration for pro's that actually take their body to the next leve AFTER becoming pro. It seems like it would be easy to become complacement after a professional bodybuilder receives a pro card. Once a certain amount of mass is built, it seems like it would be easy to just maintain. Here if is a list of guys who have brought up weak points in their physiques and have made bodyparts that were formally a liablility a strong point feel free to add to it:

1. Branch Warren (I don't really care for his physique (rather block, not good natural shape). He has always had good legs, but he single handedly brought up his arms upper body and as a result is one of the top bodybuilders in the world right now.
2. Jay Cutler everyone said he couldnt bang wit Ronnie cause of his back. Those last few Olympias where they competed together Jay was just as wide as Ronnie. And last year his conditioning...nough said.

David Henry is a good example of someoone who stepped it up after turning pro.

kai greene has completely transformed from a lean streamlined NATURAL PRO, to a 300+ pound inhuman gorilla monster. He takes my vote, absolutely INSANE transformation in just a couple years.

There's a pretty good thread on the board right now on Ronny Rockel. He would be a good candidate. Kai Greene would be another one that comes to mind.

Dennis James made huge strides once turning pro but eventually made a turn for the worse, in my opinion.

Some of the smaller guys made huge improvements -

Edurado Carrea
James Lewis
Mark Dugdale

I always admire those guys because their conditioning is always right on point. Respect.

Jose Raymond and Silvio Samuel also made good improvements...
