Obviously Pearson still has a bit to go before he will be ready to take the stage as a 212 bodybuilder. He alludes to that too, saying that it will not be until late next year before he feels ready to go. Unfortunately this means he will be sitting out at the 2020 Mr. Olympia, this December. Nevertheless, there is no denying the progress he has made, and how bricked up his back is looking here.

Keone followed this up with another update, this time from the front. He shows a bit of a vacuum pose, and you can tell how defined his biceps are. All in all, he is looking like a beast.
