What BB'er do you admire the most?

[bambambigalo]

Other than yourself, what BB'er stands out to you when you think about this sport? Me being a cop I've always admired King Coleman, that guy just doesn't want to go away lol. Pure size and strength. After that, probably Zane, old school conditioning, symetry, and perfect shape

 

[mugzy]

Lee Haney has always been my favorite.....

 

[BIG EVIL42]

Dorian Yates

 

[TNH]

I think Arnold stands out the most.... when I think BB, I think Arnold.

However, Serge Nubret has always been the one I admire most.

 

[adrenaline]

I think Arnold stands out the most.... when I think BB, I think Arnold.

Same for me

 

[jimmyjones]

Kevin Levrone is by far my favorite

2nd would be Phil Heath, that mans shape and size is absolutely perfect, no homo...

 

[method2madness]

Physique wise I prefer the look of the shorter guys and of them my two favorite are John "THe Tank" Sherman from the 90's and Lee Priest.

 

[D BO]

Shawn Ray all the way best of all time to me but I am really liking Phil Heath now as well.

 

[Moen]

Sergio hands down!

 

[lestatgear]

Cutler for his dedication to the sport and the business.

 

[patrick05]

CULTER FOR SURE IS MINE DUDES A BEAST

 

[SL1CED]

Frank.

I think Zane is the body I want to emulate. I feel it's achievable with just a long time of dedication and proper strategic planning in the future. I just need the groundwork to be laid out. I don't want to say Zane is who I want to be body-wise, but just a rough estimate or someone's body I admire.

I think McGrath looks like a beast though.This shot and his forearm shot are just freaky.

Ronnie Coleman... a Beast and game changer..destroyer of mere mortals....nuff said. Oh yea....a Living Legend.

Vince Gironda.....changed the Diet and Bodybuilding game forever... ahead of his time..forward thinker. Legend and innovator...can anyone on this board say that?

Danny Padilla...the One and only true Giant Killer...gave the "little guys" hope and aspirations.

Lee Haney....Prolific, one of the best ever. He came at a perfect time...right after the old school..bring in the new school..and like the Silver Surfer..he heralded in the Dorian era. He was truly a nice guy. Oh yea...he made all of us step our Back game up....

Dorian Yates...paved the way for Ronnie Coleman..push the limits of bodybuilding...Ronnie pushed it even further. WORK ETHIC OF 100 MEN!!

 

[Stump]

I think Arnold stands out the most.... when I think BB, I think Arnold.

I agree 100%....Today's bodybuilder-Branch Warren, just massive. Picking a brain for answers Phil Hernon.

[bmcjames]

Phil Hernon and Branch Warren are my 2 favorites.

I love them both because they seem like real guys that you could have a conversation with. They didn't lose their heads in the clouds.
