Very easy answer. NOTHING! He did not do anything but to wait to go on stage. He did not take anything, drank or eat anything funky. Jay just said he felt nervous right before going on stage because he started sweating more than he should have, that's it. We don't know what caused it but the point of these pics is that unlike the year before (where Jay was sick and almost withdrew from the O) he was in shape and ready to go as little as a few min before stage time but as you can see, the body is highly unpredictable and in a matter of minutes, the 16 hard weeks of deting and training can all be ruined without warning. In 24 hours, he performed a miracle and got rid of 12 lbs of water to show up in tremendous condition for the final but I guess it was not good enough. Oh well, at least now you know that Jay was in great condition and came prepare to defend his title like the Champ that he is at the 2008 Olympia.
He will be back next year and show that, as the great Champ that he is, sometimes you fall but you can also pick yourself up and go back to the top.

One of your best posts Max!

Even though we still don't know what happened, no that we know that you and Jay also don't know, in a way that clears things up. Nice to hear it almost from the horse's mouth!

Call back more often!

Thanks for the reply max. We are lucky to have these kind of reports from people who were there first hand.

Looking at this set of pics I can't believe Jay lose.

The side triceps is astonishing.

Jay would've won hands down if he came into shape like that on stage.

WTF HAPPENED???????

What are you guys smoking? Even if he had brought that condition he wouldn't have deserved a win, little own the gifted second placing he received.

On topic: the difference really is phenomenal between backstage and what we saw onstage isn't it :ughnoes:

He does look in better condition but maybe it is just me but I think he looks bad all the time :wutyousay:, I still think the show was judged badly because Jay still got 2nd. He should not have received any better than 5th or 6th.

that's not exactly a strong arguement there. he looked like shit last year and was handed 1st....and he absolutely did not deserve it. even if he had shown up like he did in the night show he still does not even come close to guys like phil, dexter, dennis, or even toney imo. his arms are lousy and asymmetrical, his waist is enormous and his shape is blocky, his legs are a serious weakness and they too are asymmetrical, AND.... he can't come in shape to save his life. he obviously wanted to prove to the haters that he deserves the sandow and come in perfect, he failed, and quite badly at that.

My argument is whether you agree with it or not if Jay came into pre judging in the same condition he brought to the finals he would have retained the title...thats the politics of the sport. You can disagree all you want...

He missed his mark at the most important time and because of the controversy last year they had no choice but to do the right thing and reward the better athlete this year.

Although I would not agree or like it this is completely 100% True :xyxthumbs:

If you re-read my post you'll notice I use the word "deserve", whether he would have won or not is here nor there. He wouldn't have deserved it, his physique looked awful compared to the rest of the top 6.
