Of course there is a significant time distance between those photos - Ruhl’s is from Miss Olympia 2000, Chalamet’s is from 2024
I’ve always wondered if those muscles actually work. I mean, they look like all the strength they give you will simply be required to move that mountain of flesh around, with little surplus remaining for, you know, moving other stuff.
If you’re asking if a high level bodybuilder is strong, the answer is absolutely yes. That guy will bench press 400 pounds for reps .
If you’re asking whether their strength to weight ratio is the highest a human can get them the answer is no, not even particularly close. Turns out that the exercise approach you need to achieve hypertrophy (muscle soze growth) is different from what you need to achieve strength gains, though they’re obviously related.
Plus Timmy’s dick likely works way way better.

Why did that make me zoom in on both pictures? Why did I then say “yeah looks like it” afterwards?
You’re right though! It’s actually hard to tell if the body builder even has a dick!
It’s simplified (because i forgot the details) but basically, they are mostly the initial kind that needs more space and didn’t get replaced with the effective kind. This also only happens to that extent, if you help it with chemicals.
The Germans have a saying for people like this. “Too strong to walk.”
Ruhl looks like he’s 50. Is that what steroids do?
Yes, but no, but he took too much.
You can’t compare them like this! Timothée still wears his skin.
Ruhl’s is from Miss Olympia 2000
She, uh … she sure does have a lot of mass.
It’s the same picture
It’s the diuretics. When bodybuilders are ready for a contest, they are very dry and have ragged looking faces. In off season, they don’t look like that, but I think it takes its toll over time anyway.
Plus loads and loads of gear
plus all the peds they are taking. the dehydration can kill them too from the diuertics.
Nah, that face doesn’t go away. And that hairline ain’t coming back.
Schwarzenegger? Did he look like that?
Is there a prediction they’d look the same?
Tim can probably take him.
the muscle guy doesn’t seem he will live long.
Markus Rühl retired at 39, due to a nasty pectoral tear that couldn’t be fixed well enough to compete.
He’s 54 now.
his testicles are raisins.
He’s already 54 and still kicking https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markus_Rühl
He looks younger there than in the post pic.

His face seems geared for Jowliness…where as the other guy, Timmy is kind of the opposite. But why are we comparing how different men look?
I’m not a Gen-Z looks maxer. Maybe OP is?
lucky, usually that kind of strain in the body wrecks it.
Just the muscles no? Everything else would be great for your overall longevity.
Not really. The diet to maintain that level of bulk is brutal on your heart and related organs.
That’s not counting the fact that to look like he does for shoots and competitions you basically have to dehydrate yourself for 48 hours straight to the point where you suffer from chronic kidney stones and a lot of other kidney failure related afflictions.
This is all assuming you’re not taking steroids, which have other nasty long term side effects depending on the duration and amount.
assuming you’re not taking steroids
of course he’s taking steroids.
54 shouldn’t be that old
How old should a 54 yo be?
Middle aged. Old should be like, 80
I’m sorry he’s not 80 yet
apparently they also use diuertics to keep them dry so the muscles will be more pronounced when showing. dehydration, it also messes with thier sodium and magneiusm in thier blood.
ONE IS Roided up to hell.
Is it the one on the right?
Square jaw, square head. Probably a gap in the front teeth thats fits a Volkswagen Polo
It would be good to see a compare pic with Sean Connery
I think athlete may be a misnomer here
Pageant contestant.
Bubble.
One of them father’s the God Emperor.
The other can’t
yeah and?
Live fast die beefy
