Bodybuilding is art, and he had a perfect canvas.
Just asking if you have or haven'tHe was bigger and more developed then than most people ever get.
Animal Pak is, basically, a multi-vitamin. And vitamins are good!The other products they have are arguably muscle builders, but not IMO. Reviews seem to be 2 bad for every good.
Back then, gigantic legs for the sake of being gigantic wasn't the thing. It was all about symmetry and proportions. Now the proportions seem to be thigh size vs. back, and being that you pretty much see one at a time the whole thing just looks cartoony.

How on Earth are you able to shrug nearly 500lbs. without straps, while doing pullups without them puts apparently puts any kind of stress on your forearms/grip? That doesn't add up unless you're strapping nearly 300lbs. to your weight belt
I understand wanting to work your back while doing pullups, but given that you can hold 500 you should be able to hang off the pullup bar for half an hour without any fatigue whatsoever
Yea, ~180 at contest weight at least once when he won the O (I think I said that a few pages ago...)
He & Steve Reeves have my ideal build.
I don't use them for pullups but just saying some people do. I don't use straps for anything else but shrugs just to clarify. I was just trying to make a point, that they are a very useful tool when used correctly.
GTOReturns said:Whats your height and weight?
I agree
5'10", 190 just down from 200. Was 150 a few years ago when I started. Small-frame, small jointed, etc. Totally scrawny build, tough to fill out but look bigger at lighter weightsGood thing I want to look like Reeves or Zane and not Franco Columbu
I've been 210 around 14%bf before but took a year to focus on proportions only and catching everything up to my best parts. Sucks that I wasted precious mass-building time, but I look better and more complete as a result. Sacrifice...But as I said before, bodybuilding is an art and it sure is to me, so this is more important than being out of proportion and 230lbs. However now that I'm finally caught up, I'll be starting my way back to 210 in early/mid Feb.
I just picked up some BSN N.O-xplode and Cellmass. Lets see if they help.
Thanks, it was getting me down though because I hold most of it in my pecs and lower abdomen. I had split quad heads, separation between bi/tri, visibly split bicep heads, and striations in my inner chest/delts...but my waist was too large for my liking and lower pecs were killing meBeing at 11-12% where I am now makes such a big difference in those areas.
I grew up as a size 32 on a bad day, so getting up a few notches was and still is a shocker. Back to 190 and a size 32 now (only my legs don't fit into those so I keep my larger ones - i'm sure you can relate) - gotta keep the bulk clean this time around
