    Hey Sid....please ask Dave what he thinks about Kevin bringing his legs back after the last Video Kevin posted where he was in a Dr's office explaining why he couldn't train legs until 8 weeks out.
    Imagine a full of season of training.

    I don't know how many folks noticed his Instagram post where he said he is committed to getting his legs back to 100%. He then quickly deleted that sentence and rephrase it, I think Kevin is going to go 100% full blown after the Europe tour.

    I'm mixed on this one.

    Kevin no doubt brought buzz into this year's Olympia, but how much? I'm not sure. Many of us agreed this lineup was going to be one of the best in years... and looking at the physiques, that speculation was justified, and you had some great physiques out of the top 10.. DeAsha the most notable.

    But like Michael Jordan returning after 5 years to the Wizards, Or Mark Spitz trying to return to the water after 20 years at age 41.... it made you think he would have been better off staying retired.

    Kevin may be able to improve his legs, but other pros are looking to improve also....what Pro shows could he win? Forget win... could he place top 3 in enough shows to QUALIFY for the Olympia, or will he depend on giving him yet ANOTHER special invite? I'd love to see him grind again... if he can pull off some wins, it would bring even more excitement to next year's 'O should he qualify. The Olympia gave him a gift.. let's see what he can do with it.

    There wasn't any real buzz until about two weeks before and the figures (youtube and heck this forum) on his name being discussed far outweigh any other names.
