what is happening to Jericho´s body? i know he is old but not that old he is "just" 46 and the strange thing is there are a lot of pictures of Jericho in the GYM working hard. bad genetics, maybe he drinks too much? i dont know but the man doesnt look good.
Too much bodyfat, thats all, if he cuts he will look like earlier in his career. Same thing as Taker and Brock right now, people will tell they are out of shape but in reality they have a fuckton of muscle mass under only covered up by fat.
do you think....maybe he's not using anything to help nowadays? Not saying he ever did but...
Also while at age 46 I am sure it's harder, however it's not like he's 68. Prolly has more to do with genetics than anything.
Lots of 46 year olds are cut and fit, it's just it gets harder to be at the gym and commit to working out when you've got a career, kids, and you lose interest in being fit.
The first picture you posted is studio-enhanced. Here are some pictures from the old days:
He never had a Greek-God physique; he was always a little soft in areas. Plus, he wore long pants in the old days, which helped conceal some of his flab.
Well for 46 years old it's quite a decent physique. The reason he doesn't look as great as Triple H or Goldberg is because he probably doesn't have the same strict regime and diet. I'm guessing he'd rather enjoy his food and drink a couple of beers at the weekend than have a amazing body. More power to him.
1. He is short which makes it even more difficult to keep the fat away at his age'.
2. He has hurt his chest muscle, maybe through plastic surgery, maybe for some other reason. His chest has looked like SH** ever since that injury.
3.He is known to drink red wine during interviews....not sure he is a big drinker though. Out of his close friends (and fmr.) Benoit was a big drinker but Lance Storm doesn't drink at all.
A large part of it (besides age) is probably due to the amount of alcohol he drinks, if you read his books it seems he likes to party and drink a fair bit. But hell he can still go in the ring so does it really matter? I do wonder if his physique may stop him getting one final run with a top belt due to Vince's obsession with his top guys having body builders physique's mind :frown2:
It probably wouldn't be as noticeable if he went back to wearing pants. Trunks aren't always the most flattering attire. But you pretty much answered your own questions. He's 46 and it's harder to maintain muscle mass he could 20 years ago. He still looks good for his age. He's also probably reached a point where he'd enjoy food and alcohol, instead of dieting.
Jericho had my fav. wrestler bod. I loved his thick thighs and ass :yum:. It sucks he didn't age well but he doesn't have to walk out there showing off his shit either. He would look more like a dilf without the exposed chest and trunks.
its natural that he gains weight as he ages. his diet is prolly not that good atm. he also doesnt lift nearly as much as he used to, insteading doing a lot of bw exercises and ddp yoga. plus, he used steroids back in the day.
still has a better physique and more money than 99% of the ppl on this forum.
He's older, and probably doesn't feel the need to still look in his prime, nor is it easier to do that when you age. Also, he looks fine to begin with, I mean it hasn't effected him or his character in the slightest either. Dude can still go quite fine (although I wish he would switch up his style to better suit him being slower now), and he's one of the most over guys on Raw.
