What the hell was in there?? Nobody tells me that this is a regular, training + roid induced triceps.

Probably tons of local oil-based roid injections which has a synthol-like effect after some time (like Arnold had in his biceps).

Theres no site shots there, the guy just has a decent tricep, front on hes more than likely quite narrow, so its easy for him to push his tricep against his lat, to help present the image, if he wasnt pushing aginst his lat in the pose it would look a lot more normal, secret to perfecting that pose narrow clavicles, shoulder width causes you to twist the arm to lean on the lat, looks shit.  Bodybuilding used to be about creating illusions of this type, now its just about taking more drugs and insulin, hence why bodybuilding from that era is regarded as art and todays graffiti.

yep i agree.....

however do u not think theres a chance this guy's uncle invented synthol at its earliest stages and tried it out on Arnold's biceps (only his biceps) and this Czech guys triceps.... (again ...only tried it out in his triceps) ....?......


any chance of that?

No, no...you are right.

I meant for back in the day, he was beefy in the tris!

And yes, Zane was one of the masters of making the crowd and the judges SEE what he WANTED them to see, as per illusion.

That was the key.

Very few can do this, especially now.

I think Pearl deserves credit, here. Take a look at the shot in the link provided. This guy had some serious mass in his arms, and especially his tris.
