[The Striated One]

very pleasing physique.............always thought he was a darker more pleasing version of Zane

guess the whole knock on his Hamstrings never got him the credit he deserved (although 2nd at the "O" i believe in 83 isnt bad)

He looked fantastic. That's one thing about the 70's and 80's You could tell who these guys were a mile away, they all had their own distinct physiques with different features. Now a days these guys all look the pretty much the same. I think that started happening after the Coleman era.

That's why Mr. Olympia used to be shown on NBC and CBS, etc. Now it's on webcast.

The '80's was a great era for bb'ing. There were so many quality physiques.

Great physique. Anyone have any idea what his training style was like?

Great physique. Anyone have any idea what his training style was like?

During the early 1980s he was trained by Vince Gironda. 8x8, giant sets, etc. and switching workouts every 4 weeks. Very little rest between exercises. Ate almost no carbs.

Great physique. Anyone have any idea what his training style was like?

I read an article in an old MuscleMag (70s) on his training. I remember that he did a 2 day split training 6 days a week, high volume, very little rest between sets. I remember his split was half his upperbody with quads on one day, the other upperbody parts with his hamstrings on the second day. I remember because i was amazed at how the bb's trained back in those days.

 

[machola]

bump for those who haven't seen this

 

[fbxdan]

A flawless physique imo. Makkawy was something else.

 

[Magnum]

No words

 

[Future]

Yeah I remember seeing him in old Flex adds. Pretty impressive. Not sure why he never won the O...besides IFBB tyranny.
