Thread: An interesting site....

Great site..................one of the members here has had that in his signature for months

frank zane is by far the better built man. i think that is him on the left. the other guy just looks weird.

thats Zane and Ruhl. Zane looks much better IMO

Near the bottom of the page there is a picture of arnold next to ronnie. Look how much bigger ronnie's legs are.

I think Markus Ruhl looks better...I am a lover of freaks.

You think he looks better based on what?
that Ruhl has to much mass, or that it's not in proportion?
What these man do is called bodybuilding, it's not a male figure contest.
It's just to see how big you can get, while staying lean.
And on this picture, apart from werther Ruhl has a nice physique or good genetics or has used synthol in his shoulders and pec, he is in a better condition overall, he is dryer and is not holding any water.
something I do find weird is that Nubret looks better conditioned than Flex, while there is at least 30 years in between. and as you can see in all the pic's, the people that are closer to the beginning of the Olympia are less good conditioned than the one's closer to our present time.

UNIT the reason for lack of conditioning in comparison between the ages is becuase condition is sacrificed for mass! Anyway look at Flex's legs they are better!

I agree with you 100%! It is bodybuilding and thus Markus Ruhl looks better.

ROCKGAZER "Zane is by far the better built man" - Hrmmmm i think that is a no!

Of course the legs can't compare!!
That's probably the biggest difference. even bigger than the mass difference.
And condition does not go down while mass increases.
Like I said this is a weird picture because here a man that was #2, 30 years ago, looks better conditioned than Mr.Wheeler. that's weird because of the increase of knowledge in "supplements" and technology in the sport of bodybuilding.

yes i agree but Flex legs are more conditioned but Serge upper body looks more conditioned WEIRD

It appears to me that Flex loses bodyfat in his legs first and Serge loses bodyfat in his upperbody first thus Flex's legs are more striated and vascular as Serge's upper body is more striated and vascular. Like some people you see running all of the time they have little chicken legs and tubby upper bodies misleading the uninformed that it must be because of spot reduction due to running when the reality is that their genetics just make their bodies use fat stores in their lower bodies first.

i guess women just look for different things in a mans body than men do. the big guy in the 1st pic and the black guys chest the one on the right... to me they are repulsive. maybe there should be a bb beauty contest for men cuz these guys are like women who get plastic surgery till they are hideous. to the sport i guess they are great but ewwwwwww.

rockgazer no offense but if you don't like bodybuilding maybe you are on the wrong site?

I meant that in a nice way sorry if that sounded rude!

She didn't say she didn't like bodybuilding. She said she doesn't like extreme bodybuilding with the mass monster look, huge differences between aesthetically pleasing and grotesquely muscular.

bodybuilding is not meant to be aestheitcally pleasing. In my eyes the mass monster look IS what bodybuilding is all about.

I think muscle looks great but to the average joe it looks sickening...everybody to their own.

i think there never was a time that arnold was not beautiful. it's natural for a woman to see a man with an eye toward health, strength and yes beauty it is very primal and not something you consciously decide i'll like this look or i'll like that it happens in the part of your brain and body that is still trying to ensure survival of the fittest. most women do not like the look the so called bb champs of today are striving to achieve. and hmmmm funny thing these guys don't seen to be living that long. i like boxing but i don't want to see them fight till the death. today evrything gets taken to the extreme and to me the extreme end of bodybuilding looks ugly on men and even more so on women.

"these guys don't seem to be living that long" - Incorrect. No facts or evidence to back this up.

I understand your views RG and i hvn't got a problem with them.

But for me personally i have come to a point were i don't care what women think of me anymore and doing this for myself - going to be a freak one day.

Besides when i am a walking freak (fingers crossed) i will get more girls than i do now becuase of the attention factor.


I agree with you the bodybuilding look looks ugly on a woman - personally i prefer a woman with an athletic body but no more!

By the way bodybuilding is an extreme sport and only extreme people can handle the physical and especially the mental aspects of bodybuiling in the long run. It is an extremist sport that attracts extremists.

sorry i am going off on one

yea goals are cool. good luck.

thank you!

You training for anything?

not seriously but i want to look good, be healthy, give my kids a good fitness role model and live to be at least 100.

I wouldn't want either Zane or Ruhls physique.

HAHAHAH very nice man
You know what they say man.....when girls like the way you look, it's time to go back to the gym.
And yes there are a lot of girls that will just come up to you and say what's on there mind, if you know what I mean
And that's nice, but for real to succeed in the sport of bodybuilding, you will have to have a nice girl that will be there for you during the contests, the late night cardio, making all the meals(yes you can do this your self most of the time but to close to the contest you don't have an hour to wait with food.)and most important to stay with you even when you are in a very bad mood because of dieting, and your schedule, most girls don't put up with this, and there right not to, I never understood how my girl(wife by now) was able to put up with this, and I respect her greatly for it, because she understood that this was my career, and that I had to do this, for myself and for my family.
Now you might also understand why Coleman brings his whole family onto the Olympia Stage after he wins every time, it take's a whole group of people to make this work.
