How Do I Get That V Shape Back That Arnold Had?
I have a fairly small waist. I am impressed with the v shape that arnold had. How do i get a look like that? I like the proportion he had.
My back is small however, and i want to add some size to my back without adding size to my waist. How do i do that?

just remember that Arnold had superior genetics, and not just anyone can have a v-tapor as impressive as his.

Shoulders, back and traps. He claimed I think a 33.5" waist as his all time best? I have seen 34" before, but its been sooooooo long

Arnold's lats attach very low so the potential for maximum growth was there...
low lats = big backI train differently than most, my beef is with gravity the weights on the bar are just the medium...Thanks to Wall Street your slice of the American Pie has been reduced to a crumb.

Trapisaurus, I like the way ya think. "work work work"
And I agree with everything you said.
Arnold credits his back width due to performing "weighted" wide grip pullups and barbell rows for his thickness. I actually just read that in a recent Muscle & Fitness article on him (written by him).
So if anyone is going to disagree with my saying "weighted" pullups and row to build a wide thick lat spread don't blame me, them be Arnolds' words.
On a personnal opinion, I agree with it though. I have an excellent V and really saw a drastic improvemnt after adding weight to pullups. I never really liked to add weight but my lats haven't really gotten much wider over the past few years so I began to add weight to them and sure enough I added more width. That is fact.
Regarding Genetics, you'll never know your genetic potential so don't sell yourself short. For all you know you could have "better" genetics then Arnold or anyone else but you'll never know until you reach your potential and don' t plan on reaching that goal for many years. To reach your genetic potential, it will take time and lots of hard training.
