He might have lifted weights before and just never did cardio and/or ate like shit...had some muscle covered by a big layer of fat.  I see this scenario a lot in the Hydroxycut ads.  You can tell the dudes were already big and built they just had a bunch of fat.  The pictures of them are probably after a cutting cycle.  
Bulk cycle > pictures for ad > cut cycle > pictures for ad.
He might have juiced and/or started working out/eating/dieting like a madman. 
But it seems to me the most sensible explanation is that he went on the Subway diet.[/QUOTE]
lol.  Subway.
