so thats the next step in bbing, finding a way to shrink heads to make body appear bigger!

sergio oliva had a small head, that explains his success

I wouldn't be surprised if gurus told competitors to shave their heads. Makes the head look smaller. Anything that helps you win is important.

Study the photo of my Photoshop of Ray and see how big his arms were. He was bigger than Arnold pound for pound.

yeah, ricky waynes afro made his head look bigger, much like robby in the early days

ray mentzer was a big man, no doubt, he had huge tris, 20in arms accurately measured by jones and darden, problem is never got in serious shape, and didnt have his brothers structure and flow. When youre not blessed with shape you need hard size

The big head doesn't seem to be affecting Wong Hong's placings...

Ray with a slightly smaller head and hair trimmed. He would have looked even bigger bald.

This is why back in the old days some guys would wait until the day of the show to get their hair cut.  It would give the appearance of being larger, wider if you will.  Illusion?  Yup, but then much of what bodybuilding is about is illusion.

Have a look at a cropped version of the Ray Mentzer photo. Below is Bill Pearl with a slightly smaller head. Both huge guys.

I redid the Ray Mentzer photo but didn't touch his hair this time. Might be more believable now.

Ray stayed with my family for almost a year back in 87-88. So did his partner and baby. He worked at our gym for a while, too. I can't say I trained with Ray. I attended his seminars and training camps so know what he advocated. Very hard training but most guys couldn't stick with it. Essentially bodyparts twice a week. One directly and once indirectly.

I got to know Ray quite well. I introduced him the gal he married. That was on a NYEve. Yeah, his gal was at our place! Naughty boys.

If I'm not mistaken, Ray's arms were even bigger than Mikes.

I don't know if anyone's head was bigger than Mikes though... (that was a funny)

Great writer. His book "Muscle Wars" was awesome!
Indeed. He was. I always got the feeling that his 'integrity' cost him a lot, thong-wise. Anyone?

Isn't Sergio Olivas' tiny (not that one) head part of the reason he looked so big too?

Yep!   His arm at one point got bigger than his head.  Try to achieve THAT RATIO.

^....Regardless of Sergios head (witch was small in relation to his Physique) his Arms were Massive make no mistake in the year 1971 along with Arnold more than likely the Most massive muscular arms of the day @ a BW of 230-240lbs witch was absolutely HUGE for a BBer back in that day and age.
