Vote for it! Discuss amongst yourselves. Don't get mad if I missed 1 or 2 of your faves, just post em!

I voted for Arnold because I think has done the most for the sport. I would list Ronnie Coleman in the top 5 just for the sheer size of him!

Watching Arnold in 'Pumping Iron' was one of the most inspirational videos I've seen, so there's my go.

The quote that did it for me in that movie was when Arnie said,
"Milk is for babies, I drink beer." I've had a hero ever since

Arnold rules. I just can't believe I still haven't seen "Pumping Iron" yet. . .sheesh.

I think that Arnold will always be most people's favorite for several reasons:
1.) He was a "pioneer" of the sport. 2.) Overall charisma & charm. 3.) He went on to become a famous actor. that's my opinion. BOARD SPONSORS:

No, I'm not old enough to have seen Steve Reeves compete but he's always been and probably always will be my favorite. That was one gorgeous man. Second, I like Big Lou because I think he epitomizes the determination to succeed, no matter what. Third is Sergio Oliva, the first of the freaks. He's still awesome, even by today's standards. Finally it's Arnold, just because he's Arnold.
Rules? You mean we have RULES for that???

Hmm?
Arnold has to be the MAN! But I voted for Frank Zane. I am old enough to remember him competing and he wasn't anywhere near the biggest but man could he pose! He could show what he had and made you think he had more than he did. Today I like Jay Cutler and Lee Priest. Ronnie is just UNBELIEVABLE!

the reason I wouldn't say Arnold would be because of his legs, or lack of legs.
to be the man
you have to beat the man.
