To me this is the best photo of a male bodybuilder. Taken in 1947 when Steve was 21 and Mr America.

This pic of Sergio always reminded me of Steve in the exact pose.

The absolute best side chest shot of all time!!! IMHO

no it cant be!!.. his chest is nearly perfect here no doubt but it overpowers his shoulders clearly..

Ditto. The mid 80s to early 90s in bodybuilding was the same as the situation now - a few good pros here and there, but the field in general not as impressive as the guys from Arnold's era or from Dorian's time. Which is why I think it will get better again in a few years, since the trend seems to be cyclical like most things.

i dont think bb will be ever good again kiwi!!.. even if great bb appear fans dont give a big shit like before!.. just my opinion and i may be wrong of course..

No they can't....you have it exactly backwards.

anyone can diet....only a certain few can get huge and still look like something

but dont tell me any short small guy can diet and look like labrada!!.. big or small you still must have great genetics!!..

or you cant get the whole labrada thing too??..

Some of the best. Ones you've seen a million times, but for a reason.

It won't be like the 90s again, without the internet and only the mags to feed you what little news there is. That made things interesting and you could look forward to what was going to happen next. But with so much stuff online in terms of content (pics, vids, posts etc) and us endlessly discussing the same shit daily, it is going to get stale. Familiarity breeds contempt.

I think bodybuilding could go in another, parallel direction and be just as good/interesting if the pool of talent improves and the judging criteria changes to penalize things like guts and Synthol.

The guys have levelled out in terms of what mass they can add with all the drugs and training info out there. So unless something new comes along, like gene therapy, I think we might have the bodybuilders trying to be the best they can be with what they can achieve, viz. being 240-260 cut on the 5'9" and below guys, and maybe 10-20 lb heavier for the taller guys.

everything you fellas show is nice,, great bodybuild ,, but its not the best,, the best was withnessed for a period of 8 years,, few of them he wasnt in his best ,, but the years he was woudl be remembered as the best human being bodybuilder to ever walk earth,,

there will be storys written on this bodybuilder when all said and done,, he was truly an e.t,, he was a freak but a freak with class,, MASS WITH CLASS in a freak,, rare to see ,, youll never see this again ,, this is TRUE MUSCLE WHAT YOU ABOUT TO WITHNESS ,, TRUE REAL LEGIT MUSCLE!

The one and only Steven Lester Reeves posing with (I believe) Lake Michigan in the background on the Chicago Side, 1947.
Now this, this is perfection.  Men envied him and women adored him.  Midgets like myself simply wanted to be like him.  Unequaled.
