Top 10 Lower Backs (Christmas Trees) in Bodybuilding History!

[@briani50]

Dude serious respect for putting Samir at number one. I feel like most people would put him no higher than 3rd. Never should’ve doubted you!

[@HardbrasH1]

when I saw the title, I thought about Samir immediately

[@abdellatifseksaf5605]

Really !!

[@1994mrmysteryman]

I feel like you're gonna end this series with top ten glutes. That'd be a sight.

[@Tomn8er]

Only if it's a top 10 female pornstar glutes, but don't think KZbin would like that much 🤪

The first video I see from your channel at the same time it was uploaded, I discovered your channel last week and I have binged like 60% of all your videos, you made me a fan of bodybuilding, keep up the good work Tom!

[@crossroads725]

Great video Tom. I had no idea I would be as interested as I actually was, but your commentary is so detailed and spot on, I found myself more intrigued the more the video progressed. You dissect these guys like a surgeon and put into words what most of us think subliminally, but just never really put into words. Thanks for taking the time to bring topics no one else really discusses to the degree you do.

[@BatmanBoss]

Christmas Trees 🎄 Happy Holidays Tom!

[@uniqutilities2831]

Awesome vid! Always been fascinated by a well developed xmas tree. A truly sign of hard work and great conditioning!

[@kapilbhartiya6208]

Hello Tomn8er. I am a fan of your videos. Your bodybuilding knowledge, observation, deduction and presentation are second to none. Keep up the good work. Please do comparisons on glutes, hamstrings/leg biceps and calves as well. I am eagerly awaiting these.

[@dracoxchaos290]

Markus Rühl’s absolute prime was, 2002’s “Night of Champions” which definitely portrays his lower back on a higher level than in 2004 when he was 300lbs (on stage)

[@ahmedabduallh1336]

Shawn Rhoden looks absolutely amazing

[@massive1979]

How about worst body parts of Mr.O's?

[@iambodybuildingyt221]

Good idea

[@oxrjbizzle1984y]

great list tom, really looking forward to your predictions video! thanks man!

[@monsoon1174]

I think you underrated the lats in this shot, which are very important for its general wow factor. I also don't like the over emphasis on the lower back being a certain shape. This isn't like the chest or other aesthetic muscle groups. It's 100% a freak factor kind of shot showcasing detail and mass, which means its harder to argue aesthetics over detail and size. Either way, it's still a great video detailing a lot of awesome discussion as always.

[@Tomn8er]

The lats are very important for this shot, but I already did a top 10 lats video. And yeah fair enough, the emphasis on a tree shape may just be a personal preference thing.

[@CC-be3ko]

Nice video, bro. Keep uploading videos, your channel is gold.

[@donaldcreech7782]

I'm always pumped when I see a new Tomn8er vid is out!

[@colethomson7267]

I like that you still make videos showcasing older competitors and give props to lesser-known guys that excel with certain muscle groups

We need an hour long video analysing, in detail I might add, the best glutes of all time.

[@tompossessed1729]

I like your way of rating bodybuilders parts because you look at the peaks and consistency.

[@diegoleme2640]

Love your content man, very entertaining to watch!

[@PNN_ParodyNewsNetwork]

Ty for another excellent video! I know you stopped years ago, but I miss the old “AAUU” Arnold imitation intro.

[@jamesfauver2447]

Very well done, keep it up. Samir was my pick from the begining. Deadlifts and unsupported barbell rows are responsible for this development mostly imo.

[@mikemedal]

Crazy to see how much Yamagishi's Lats have receded. You should do a video on disappearing lat syndrome on guys like Cutler, Yamagishi, and now even Ramy.

[@Danimal77]

And now even Ramy? Ha, I bet you're eating those words now, aren't you? ;-)

[@mikemedal]

@@Danimal77 The comment stands. Google his back. You can see that just recently his lats have started creeping up his back in the back double. It was even mentioned by Dennis James

[@laurikotivuori1585]

@@Danimal77 Surely you're joking? His lats have moved up half of his back, his lower back is empty now. It used to have clear lat separation, but there's none anymore and the outline of the lower lats is gone.

never heard of number two but at least I called number 1. Good list.

[@gujakis4688]

I know we are talking here about best lower back in history but Jesus Christ, this Dorian's back photos 😮 .... some pictures really make one wonder, how is it even possible to develop a back so much! Incredible mass with equally incredible definition! No doubt in my mind, the best and freakiest back ever.

[@C-qc657]

I expect all competitors at the o this year to have full Christmas trees. Let us know what time of year it is💪

[@marcbraune8102]

markus nights of champion 2002 had a great cristmas tree but that is the only show were you can see his cristmas tree one stage very well

Think it’s a typo, but you listed De Mey as #3 in the video instead of #2.

[@Tomn8er]

Yup caught that only after making the vid public smh

[@garethjones2746]

Think maybe because of Rhoden's lower back development is so good as it is overcompensating for the lack of strength (comparable strength) in his lower lats.

Dorian has an overdevolped low traps which is why his looks like that. The reason the rest have perfect trees is because they LACK low traps.

De Mey was yhe inspiration for Dorian to build that lower back. Samir never held his rear lat spread pose so its frustrating. I agree with the list.

You're looking gin the wrong place. The best Christmas tree backs aren't on the Mr O level bodybuilder stage. They're actually on fitness models. This is equally true if you're looking for the very best abs.

No doubt, because it's easier to get super lean when you're smaller. But this channel is purely pro bodybuilding.
