75 kg? That's 165 lbs, no way Wheeler is anywhere near that number.

He's lookin' about 95ish in the pic Fahad posted, that's 210 pounds.

...Unfortunately it is true. Flex had a kidney transplant a couple of years ago but has since healed and competed at this year's Arnold Classic in a martial arts competition. He still has the disease (FSGS) but was adviced by his doctor that if he wanted to live he'd have to stop competing. If anyone one else has any other questions don't hesitate to PM me. ~

may just be genetic, but because he's a pro bber, one can only suspect the damage came from excessive intake of some form of supplement be it illegal or not.

i met flex in march, and yes he is a mere shadow of his former self, but the man is far from 75kgs, he arms still look close to 20inches. regardless, i was rapt to get a snap with him

no his disease did not come from steroid use, no disease does, it runs in his family

Man - barely looks like the same Flex! He had such awesome shape!, seems bizarre to see him so much smaller! (Not that he's small now!!)
