They don't make like this anymore
-
Check out the triceps !!
-
Bill was awesome and to this day is still awesome. I love seeing and talking with him everytime we see each other. His memory is perfect and he is still in great shape.
-
I only met him once he is one of the classiest guys I ever met in bodybuilding.
-
looks great!!
-
Spectacular!
-
All that from humble beginings
-
The first time I saw a pic of him doing a side tri I thought it was morphed. His triceps are unreal! I'd recommend checking out the Dave Draper/ Bill Pearl DVD that came out last year, it's fascinating and a nice breathe of fresh air and positive attitude for bodybuilding.

Bill & Arnold
-
Bill is a legend plain and simple................
-
Bill's one of my greatest bodybuilding idols. I read about his old strongman shows from the 50s and 60s and am fascinated by his strength.

Dude was a vegitarian too.
-
Those world class triceps Bill had a 20" arm at just 220lbs

What, really?
There you see what good dianabol can do. ;D ;D

thats because his lack of chest, legs, and shoulders lightens him up quite a bit. but damn...those tri's look like they weigh 30 lbs each.
...although synthol wasnt around back then, i still find it odd that all you iron agers who hate on madoern pros with a standout body part and yell "synthol" wouldnt have nothing but praise for this guy whos arms are three times too big for his body, and his triceps 2 times too big for his biceps.

There are hundreds of cars today that look better than the ones yesterday but the classics still have an impact today.

soemtime today im going to take some picture for comparison with goudy who challenged em to do so...so keep you eyes on the pictures page and you can re-post them here if you want to, hammer.

candidate you simply cannot compare guys from 30 or 40 years ago with guys of today. It is impossible. Yes there are many that have size like he does but how did they get them. Look at what people of today have at there disposal and what they had back then. It is funny as hell. And to compare guys of today to guys of long ago is embarrasing to the guys of today. Simply because they are getting compare to guys who had hardly anything to help them get that way while the guys of today have to take mega does of drugs and have far more superior nutrition, diet and training methods. All that and they are compare to guys who had hardly anything.
And here is a fact I bet. If you took that pic of Bill and put it up against Coleman in a dozen major magazines including industry mags, and had a website too that asked the public whose body would you rather have I bet the majority would say Bill's by a landslide. That doesn't say much to the direction BB has taken.

yes but the majority of the public are rediculously obese, out of shape, never ifted a weight, and voted democrats into office. they have no say in etermining who has the better body.
personally, i would chooose coleman in a second. its not even a decision.
and there are naturals today that look better than pearl...just not the triceps. and that is embarrasing to him, considering he took steroids, and they didnt.
-
Was Pearl a natural? A guy who won't even eat meat seems like he wouldn't use the sauce.

yeah. ::)
the first two are from the 50's, jackass. the last one could ave possibly taken them because they were around...but from what i hear he looked like a bodybuilder when he was like 6b years old and never touched a weifght...and his sister is a beast too.just crazy genetics.

So, you dont know if they took or not. Earlier you said you knew for a fact, now the gene-gifted one might have taken... ::)
You wanna bash Pearl, just do it, no need for bs stories.
And Pearl looks better than them, btw. ;D
-
Now that's a physique a lot of people would aspire to look like ;)

Bill Pearl, as many know, has admitted to doing a cycle of Dianabol back when he first found out about them....from Dr Ziegler himself, if I recall...it's in his book anyway.
Perhaps he did take some drugs, perhaps he didn't. I think that he's a great role model for bodybuilding because he obviously didn't roid out like the trend that followed, ie, Arnold's time.
I think that Pearl is among the last of the great "naturals", but even still...imagine what the bodybuilding scene today would be like if his body was the standard. Remember that Bill Pearl is a genetic freak able to put on muscle MUCH more easily than his peers....there would probably only be 10 pro's in the ranks if there were NO drugs and only the absolute genetic best competed. That's where I put Bill Pearl, among the best in the mild usage category.
That's why the IFBB has no problem with drugs...with drugs, literally anyone can compete and look somewhat good. Of course the genetic guys will rise to the top, but if there were no drugs?...only the
ACTUAL best would be there. And due to the much more stringent diet and yes, harder work for less results would discourage most people trying to 'make it' ....for a fact, there would be nowhere NEAR the amount of money there is today.
But I agree that Bill Pearl was and IS awesome...and if you don't agree, well...don't agree.
