Title: The most muscular pose
Post by: Moosejay on August 26, 2008, 07:23:16 AM
What do you fellows think is best:

1) the crab Most Muscular

2) the Hands on hips most muscular

3) any other type

Also, do you notice that in the 40's, 50' and even 60', the MM was not done.

the only one I have seen from that era was a very good one by Dan Lurie (anyone post a pic of this?)

Finally,
 does anyone recall in the b70's and 80's how guys would do the crab, and then , kinda rotate their fists around each other? Recall that?

Thoughts...?

to answer the question ..... i think it depends on the person and how they look in each MMpose..

i think levrone's is best of all time.... looks like a cartoon....

also darrem charles MMpose is great/unique

and of course flex wheelers hands on hips....... hes like a manga cartoon

Zane would do one hand on hip, other hand in a fist in front of him.

Never saw him do a crab, EXCEPT aginst A in 68 Universe

The guys you posted all have great delts and arms but are just too narrow IMO to be considered one of the greatest.  All factors combined beyond just delts and arms (including width, chest, etc.) I think it's between Nasser (obviously :)), Coleman, Dennis James, and Marcus Ruhl

IN the wheeler,sonny,munzer shot u can see both wheeler and schmidt outshaped and better structured than munzer,munzer was exciting to see posed because of the hardness and fibrous look to his muscle,but u be hardpressed to see a relaxed pose of him,he is not nearly as impressive ,posed insane yes but didi not have the greatest shape.

yep his name is always brought up when talking about condition...yep he did look kinda awkward in certain poses...

but with tthat double bi .... i think hes goin for a golden era style which isnt really working for him when hes standing next to dry 90s mass monster cartoons

i think he died in 96 right after the FIBO..... "muscle" by jon hotten is a good read and munzer is mentioned throughout the book
