Curious to hear your guy's thoughts on this. Your most underrated or not mentioned enough as a great pros. We all know the "uncrowned Olympia" guys that get mentioned often, and rightfully so, the Kevin Levrone, and Shawn Ray types. But what about other guys with incredible physiques that were just forgotten by time or overshadowed by a dominant bodybuilder of that time/era.
Mine are in order:
Charlie Clarimonte: My all-time favorite bodybuilder. never gets mentioned ever, Most aesthetic guy I have ever seen
Mike Francois: My second favorite bodybuilder of all time and very close to Charlie. Perhaps because I have met him and trained with him a few dozen times, but he was him back in the day. A career cut short by illness, but a tremendous and interesting person. Love you Mike.
Lionel Beyeke: I guess he never truly realized his true potential, but godamn if this guy didn't have the gifts
Günter Schlierkamp. An absolute monster, tall, enormous, yet still aesthetic. Everyone remembers him, but not sure if everyone remembers how good he actually was.
Aaron Baker: I mean just an aesthetic yet huge beast, another lost name
Theiry Pastel: dude defined aesthetic, his name literally does not exist in bodybuilding lore
