Nick Harrison Goliath gets Caned at Muscle Mayhem | Bodybuilding ...

---

Nick Harrison was unquestionably the biggest man on stage at the 2012 NANBF California Natural Muscle Mayhem Bodybuilding & Figure Championships last Saturday in Sacramento. In fact, big Nick arguably had more muscle pound for pound than any three contestants rolled into one ? and that?s a lot of muscle!

He was truly ?goliath-like? with his enormous chest and massive build on his relatively short 5?10? frame reflecting his years of powerlifting. But he wasn?t just big ? he was in excellent condition, too. His deep cuts and muscular definition were the result of many months of hard training under the expert tutelage of Master Trainer Mike West.

?Goliath? overpowered four formidable opponents in the tall class to advance to the posedown for the overall title against short class champion Alexander Dunn and medium class winner Cane Bishop .

2012 NANBF California Natural Muscle Mayhem Champ Cane Bishop

Harrison?s great size dominated the stage at first against his smaller adversaries but, as the judges began to lead the athletes through their compulsory poses, it became evident that ? once again ? his powerfully-built physique was lacking in symmetry. Twice before Nick had won the tall class ? at last year?s INBA Southern California Natural Bodybuilding Championships and at the recent INBA Mr./Ms. Hollywood Natural Bodybuilding Championships (where he also earned ?most muscular? honors) ? only to lose in the overall.

While Dunn and Bishop lacked Harrison?s overall mass, they still packed a lot of serious muscle on their smaller frames. More important, they packed it all in the right places. Bishop, more so, displayed remarkable symmetry ? that imprecise sense of harmonious or aesthetically pleasing proportionality and balance ? that carried him to victory as the overall champion of the 2012 NANBF California Natural Muscle Mayhem and winner of his IFPA pro card. Look for this champion to make serious waves in the pro ranks.

As for Dunn and Harrision?

Dunn will always have the perceived disadvantage of being a small man in a big man?s game, but he will be inspired by the great Moji Oluwa and realize that sometimes great champions come in small packages.

Nick Harrison, of course, already has the distinct advantage of size over almost anyone he will ever meet on the natural bodybuilding stage ? now or in the future. Because he is a very big man, he has a naturally thick waist, and his equally thick lats extend like giant slabs of muscle from his waist to his massive shoulders in a straight line and detract from his overall symmetry. When his upper lats achieve the proper dominance, he has the potential to be one of the all-time greats. And when Goliath roars, everyone will know it.

But for now, Cane Bishop rules!
