This guy would crush every competitor in the current Mr. O and he never won one himself. What a shame. Mass with class.

[@Мирич-з4е]

Yep, he is the true 1997 Mr. Olympia, not Dorian.

[@M1tjakaramazov]

Not sure in terms of fullness, but when it comes to conditioning, current Mr Os would be considered incomplete in the 90s.

[@turnippatrol4607]

Even his face is an anatomy chart of muscles

[@jesseharrington797]

He did win the Olympia in 97...they just didn't give it to him. He literally blew Dorian off the stage

[@network735]

i beleive he should have won 97 and 98

[@tigersnowy6979]

During this period, it seemed to me that Nasser was the most photographed at the time. Every magazine cover, every in depth story - it was all Nasser.

[@joetoth5465]

Un coloso naseer.

[@nicholaschase768]

Nasser seemed so cool here. It’s unfortunate how bitter he became.

[@garyshilton9502]

There’s a video on KZbin where Dorian is shown pictures of him and Nasser at the ‘97 Olympia. Dorian basically agrees, Nasser beat him that year

[@levanmuradashvili2921]

Dorian never agrees that. He himself explained very well how he defeated Nasser in 97. It's about simple math. Poses and rounds count not certain muscles or stomach alone

[@Ganbarizer]

I wish someone would make a reproduction “Nasser” hat. Not sure if they were only made for him or he was selling them as merch, but it would be pretty sweet. Maybe I should do it....

[@mattroyle1087]

[@A_Coffee_Bear]

I'm looking forward to seeing Nasser in a better world! As a Jehovah's Witness, I believe in God's Kingdom and the resurrection of the death soon to come - The Bible, John 5:28, 29; Acts 24:15. Having a workout with him would be nice!

[@Football__Junkie]

Was this year his best look? Later years he looked like he got pregnant.

[@Mani_Matter]

Nasser Germany

[@jldp24]

Just had the look around this time from 95..here 96..leading into 98. Lost it from there. This look is better than the current mass monsters...they abuse drugs..this man proportions were inline. Ofc he had weaknesses..but structurally he he had the look. Weak tris..andslightly weak back..other than that.. top tier.

[@boskovukajlovic671]

Ruined his body with esiclene

professor but died cos or steroids. nonsense

I miss the 90's. Listenning Hole, remember The Crow.

Nasser's height was in 1996, without places, fiber everywhere, excellent muscle division and skin quality

[@jamesirizarri4318]

Jesus that was a lot of volume, he was one of the greats

[@Mani_Matter]

„Nasser“ is german and means Gold. „El-Sonbathy is arabic and means Boy. *Golden Boy* what for a name. obligated to be above normal.

[@ginoferrara3778]

Very cool

"Nasser" dont mean Gold in german.

This dude did every back exercise in the book LOL

[@fgcpeak9591]

And still had zero back detail

[@manduheavyvazquez5268]

The back always was his weak point, but in front always looked amazing. Greatness

[@rawintensity8141]

95 96 97 best versions of nasser, 98 it was all down hill from there, synthol use in his delts became very clear, 99 placed out of top 5, 2002 didnt even make top 6.

[@jldp24]

Yes his receptors were torched. It happens to all.of.them.

[@rawintensity8141]

@@jldp24 wrong, there is nothing like that. Look at dexter, competed from 99 to 2021, his physique hasn't changed much, infact his muscle maturity is off the charts, the problem with nasser was he was competing at a bodyweight which was too heavy for him, 245 was his contest weight, he started to come in at 265, 268, his heaviest was 274 i believe, totally blew his physique away, also he abused insulin a lot, offseason weighing in at 310, he screwed his physique playing the size game.

[@jldp24]

@@rawintensity8141 well yeah..he also didnt respond.anymore. Milos made mention of this. Listen to Milos about Nasser. Even if Nasser won thr Ac99 he still lost his proportions with the size game..his legs dropped and with width. Torching receptors is a thing. But you right.on your points

[@GabrielOlympic]

@@rawintensity8141 There comes a time when the body no longer reacts to any dose no matter how much you increase it... 1996 was the pinnacle of the Nasser, excellent size, proportion and quality... After 1997, as you said, he wanted to get too big, that title stolen from him messed with him a lot, unfortunately you can understand, after he separated from his wife he ran out of money to prepare like the other years before, nobody knows about that... Then he was forced to start using spots on the biceps and deltoids, which ended up with his physique unfortunately... He himself said that he regretted having used Synthol...

[@odanne29]

Nasser was always in awesome shape....

[@Ramatx]

Died at 43 not smart probably slept for 2hrs a night😢

[@stefanosprokopis6974]

I wonder if he's natural non steroids bodybuilder.

[@mosotheshowstarta7183]

This is too funny...there is a clip of Jay circulating on utube where Jay says that 3wks prior to a '95 show Nasser ate 3 slices of cheesecake and then the next day was on the bike for 2-3 hours and ultimately got 3rd place in the contest...this video, presumably in the following year Nasser says that some competitors don't know how to diet and he gives an example of some who eat cheesecake pre-contest....given his dry sense of humor i am assuming he is talking about him self...or he completely lacks self awareness

[@colebuckmaster966]

He is talking about himself hahaha

[@mattmuscle8249]

WHAT A GREAT VIDEO THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@MocvideoProductions]

You’re welcome

[@patrickjames468]

As a massive Nasser fan, you can tell after 1997 his training intensity decreased. He's lifting really heavy here and looks peeled, 98 and onward he seems less serious or something. I think the 1997 Mr. O really messed with him.

[@MocvideoProductions]

It had to mess with his mind to lose in 97. All indicators show he could have won, so I’m sure he was defeated in his mind as well…

[@davidsmith4186]

Pure Diesel running through this man's veins. Nasser should've won at least one if not more. They robbed a lot of good bodybuilders then! Levrone.

[@philipjackett-simpson9886]

He came in second in the 97 olympia but probably deserved first

i was at San Diego just a few week ago and its cool to see some of the machines are still on the same place like 1996. A few things changed like the name of the gym (now THE GYM) and the colors of the walls - but still untill today (2024) this gym has an amazing atmosphere! One of the best gyms in the world!
