he would get smoked nowadays his waist is way to flat.......


speaking of small waistlines i picked up a flex magazine in the gym today and noticed flipping thru all the garbage supplement ad's all the freakin obvious airbrushing to make waist's appear smaller, make me puke, airbrushing in a musclemag. cant believe people actually buy that shit.

I agree with you. Being a bit of a photographer myself and having some pretty powerful photo editing software, you would be very surprised at how far they go with it! If you know what to look for and have a keen eye you will spot it right away. But to the untrained eye it looks real.

His physique doesent look very powerfull or strong to me. His body and frame look thin and fragile. It look as though he has muscles taped onto a skinny frame, and not like they have been built from a solid structure and grown for many years.

I hate when people compare eras. It was a different time with different training, different supps and different extra supps. Arnold had great genetics for his time and unless you can build a time machine and transport Arnold as 13 year old, or whenever he started training, into the future around 1995, as a 13 year old, and let him start his training with all the knowledge, whey protein, GH, insulin and everything else that is around now that wasn't around or was just starting to be used. Who knows what he would have looked like. As far as his era he was the best period.

lol

Rotty I think what Edge was saying in a sarcastic way is that todays bodybuilders stomachs are out of control
Hence why he made referece to the air brushing as well

That pic's been around for years most likely taken right before or
after a show. have you ever seen pictures or vids of him training.
Far from thin and fragile. There was a picture of him on stage
doing a barbell curl with 250lbs. A little lose but he got it up.
Best bis's in the business

If waists were smaller, this wouldn't be done. I can't decide if genetically the people who now do better in the sport are thicker boned and have thick waists, or if its the slin/gh gut thing.

 

[lucian]

ok....

as far as having a frail frame??? loo at this pic. if he had all the things guys today had to work with......who knows.

well I guess that depends on who you ask...just look at the general population in the USA...but to each his own I guess . Good luck in your quest for the spare tire

Other than deformity, what are the greater health implications of enlarged organs other than the heart?

Arnold is the king! (with a little "k")

lucian,thanks for pulling that up. That's what I'm talkin about. And you
are right about that. He was one of the main reasons I got into this
sport.

i would say this is uncharted territory, know one really knows yet. if the large stomach is indeed a result of organ growth or fat

 

[ironwill]

he is , was and always will be the best...
IMO of course...

 

[ironwill]

what did someone say, pasted on muscles, i would love to have this weak look...
