Sorry Adonis but this pic was photoshped. Not to diss on Zane, which I really admire and respect, but this pic was very well worked on photoshop. See the difference between the chest skin and arms skin. It isn't the same. Who did it, did it very well...

Frank just got done with a photoshoot and is in ON FITNESS magazine. The ON FITNESS pictures even look BETTER than this.
They are not photoshopped at all.
-
he looks small.

Fake
Believe me Frank is no where near that arm development
TA How naive you can be,
-
didnt TA photoshop his own pictures.
here's a tip - photoshop everything then you can stop training alltogether and just eat ice cream all day and watch old reruns of married with children
-
They are not photoshopped at all.
Dahhhhhh OK, chief. ::)
-
You guys TA got a new computer and Photoshop not to long ago. He said it on here and said that now he can practice with photoshop more. I have a feeling he worked along time on this one. I also feel we are going to see more pics of him looking better too
-
monster straining with no weight to look brutal for a photo shoot.
-
photoshopping, morphing etc is the most retarded thing to happen to bodybuilding in a long time
-
Is he really 64? He looks to me like he's in his late 50s.
I've seen that picture before....not sure about the authenticity.
-
if he looks unreal maybe it's because he is
-
Actually, it's clearly photoshopped and very easy to tell. Simply open the image up in any image program (even MS Paint will work) and zoom in on the image. you'll notice that his face/body are quite pixilated and grainy while his arms are very smooth and blurred. A clear sign of photoshopping. Kidn of sad that this was done by an actual Mr. Olympia (see Ironage where Shawn Perine states Frank sent it to him directly).

HA ;D. If someone asked me "I hear the term photoshop all the time, what does it mean" I would show them this picture. It's pretty obvious that the face is the only part that is Frank's. Even the forehead isn't his. The colours just don't match. And like donrhummy said, the face is all pixelated & blurry.
SERGIO!!!!
-
the photoshop is so obvious that it isn't even funny
-
HRT is a wonderful thing. And maybe hes hitting some dbol for old times sake.
-
The funniest thing about it is that they photoshopped his arms but not the weights! So he's struggling with 20 lbs! LOL.

funny from a guy who worship the all natural thing....
-
Maybe he is planing to doing the olympia this year... ??? a former Mr. Olympia is qualified for lifetime...(that`s no joke ;))
He is looking in very good shape for this age, no question about that.
Frank Zane (nickname in the 70`s "the chemnist")
-
Fake, fake, and fake.
-
Frank has been known to allow photo shopped pics to get out. Look at his left shoulder there, and see how smooth it is? ??? If he's that lean, and ripped, then that shoulder wouldn't be near that smooth. Probably would have striations all over.
Plus, he didn't look that good 40 years ago as Mr. Olympia!
-
Frank and Larry Scott are about the same age as me. I haven't been impressed with the size of either guy in recent years. My arms are almost as big as when I was in my prime so I don't know what those guys have been doing re training. Frank hasn't looked that young over the years. That is the way it goes. He is obviously posing with some light dumbbells for some fitness magazine.
I smiled when I read on his site that he is probably the most educated champion bodybuilder. What an ego. When he came to my apartment in 1979 or so he told me that I don't have to visit Disneyland because I had been in Fantasyland all my life. That was in relation to a statement made in Muscle Builder after I won the Mr Canada contest in 1970.
Former Mr Olympias should look a lot better than what I see in recent photos of Frank and Arnold. He was born on June 28, 1942 according to the internet. He got his MA in experimental psychology from a campus in San Bernadino.
-
Of course, here's Basile with his circle jerk bullshit about how he still looks as good as said old school bodybuilder when he never looked as good as them in his prime. ::)
-
Frank's right forearm in that pic looks very strange. He has a very unnatural peak on his forearm, and the taper is strange. I say "shopped."
-
ALL DRUGS
-
Zane boasts about how educated he is and implies he is more intelligent than most bodybuilders. Well, how come he doesn't have bigger arms? I find my arms growing rapidly when I apply my theories to training them. They are growing faster than they did when I was still enterring contests. I know more about training now than I did back in the old days. I have also built some new gym equipment that I installed in my gym. I had a patent for a biceps-supinator machine and have the only such machine in the world in my gym.
It could well be that Frank chooses to be smaller and I can accept that. Where is Frank Zane? He doesn't post on Getbig yet has been on the internet for years. Not many guys who have won national titles have a go at posting on this gossip board. Where is Larry, Arnold, Franco, Dave, etc.??

Gonna have to call bullshit on this one. ::)

Only thing growing on you is your gut.

Frank and Larry Scott are about the same age as me. I haven't been impressed with the size of either guy in recent years. My arms are almost as big as when I was in my prime so I don't know what those guys have been doing re training.
I agree with your thoughts on Zane, his physique has never done much for me. I disagree on Larry though and think he's doing just fine. Not bad for a guy nearing his 70's.

They are former Mr. Olympia's. You are not. ;) They have better things to do with their time.
Hope this helps. ::)

larry Scott looks great!!! Very healthy and fit and muscular. The good old days of bodybuilding, when the guys were actually healthy and yes, they WERE athletes! They ran and did out door activities for cardio.
The Zane pix is 100% photo shopped and anyone should be able to see it. It's not good at all and I don't think I've seen a real good photo shop anyway.
-
Yes, credit to Larry Scott for still having a great looking arm. However, if you saw Larry in person you would be surprized at how small he looks. I had him at my gym in 1979 for a seminar and he looked great. In 1991 I saw him at IRSA and I thought he looked small walking there at the trade show. I said hello but he didn't remember me.
I imagine Zane would be similar and look nowhere near as big as he was when he won contests.
I am about 225 pounds now so am carrying a lot of bulk. I might see what I can do this year to both grow at my age and also see if I can lose some fat. I can tell you it isn't easy to keep muscle and lose fat at my age. I don't use supplements or any pills or injections. Period. What I have found is that it is still easy to keep muscles growing at 64 and that is quite satisfying.

The fact that they are "smaller" and you are walking around at 225 pounds at 64 means they will probably outlive you by 20 years.
-
He looks bigger then what he was when he won the O.
-
He looks great, and for a 64 year old extremely well.
-
Photo I took today. No photoshopping except to reduce and crop the image. Sure I am carrying some fat but that helps to smoothe out the face, unlike those thin lined older guys.

Vince I gotta tell you, you turning into some of these young guys. You are putting down people who have done more in the BB industry than you will ever. What happened to you. You brag so much now it seems you are a different person. You have a patent and spent thousands of dollars on a machine but why. Generally you get a patent and you sell what you made. You brag about your business sense but I have to tell you that this was one of the stupidest things I ever heard. You spent all that money to patent a machine that no one wants or it doesn't work. I have never heard of someone getting a patent for a machine for themselves.
-
zane was just on that gym show on fit tv,, he looked like a broken down old man that could hardly walk..

hahahahahha
Seriously, Vince, it's a young mans game. It's good to see you still toss a little iron around and don't sit around in a recliner all day, but give it a rest.
-
According to Vince 1979 was a great year...everyone came to his apartment
Vince, seriously, start using supplements...a fat burner could go a long way for you
-

hahahhaha, yes, 2nd only to 1988 !
I talked with Ray Mentzer a lot about training when he stayed at my house in Sydney.
Ray Mentzer and his gal, Kathy, stayed at my place for months in 1987-8.
Steve Weinberger stayed at my place for a couple of days in 1988 when Ray Mentzer was staying at my place.
-

yup saw it...That steve guyed owned Zane...Stating he wished he got someone else, that Zane was a dud or something like that...

Look, Keith, everyone knows that anyone who posts here risks getting the piss knocked out of him with nasty remarks, etc. I have had my fair share of that shit and I am still here. Where are Zane and Arnold and Larry Scott? Well, maybe they don't want to be knocked and that is showing better sense.
I am not knocking Zane or Scott. I am merely saying what I honestly feel about the way they look. People on here have no trouble telling me how I look and that is the way this place goes. Your mate, Goodrum, always tells you that you are fat. Typical Getbig abuse and we have to shrug it off or stop posting here.
I feel proud about designing and building what is the best biceps machine in the world. I doubt it is marketable in its current form and I have accepted that. Had I to do it all over again I wouldn't patent it but try to sell the idea to a company that wanted it. Most people have no idea how much a patent costs because you have to deal with patent attorneys and they deal with agents in the countries you want protection in. It is easy to be smart after the fact. However, if you have something original you are keen to protect it so pay what is demanded plus the expensive yearly fees they charge which run into thousands of dollars.
I don't claim to be a good businessman. My ex, Roz, runs our gym. You will find that it is one thing to set up a gym and another to keep it open for 35 years like we have here in Sydney.

Vince, post some photos from your 1970 Mr. Canada win that prove you weren't living in Fantasyland. I've never seen a competition pic or any pic of you at your prime.
-

Got to love your optimism.. but yeah, "smooth" is certainly the word I'd use to describe you, I agree.
By the way, why the hell are you bragging about your patent? Any wise business man knows you do NOT patent a new invenstion but keep the idea away from the public eye and make money instead. Once you patent something, the idea is public domain. If the idea is worth anything (I doubt that), it will be copied by someone who knows you can't afford the lawyers to fight for your patent anyways. But hey... I hope you prove me wrong and that the world will be full of (im)Basile-Bicep machines soon.

Of course he doesn't remember you. You never did anything worthwhile in bodybuilding. And Zane is right, you have been living in Fantasyland. You were too lazy to take it to the next level and played it safe all of your life
Face it Basile. Your life in terms of bodybuilding has been wasted and you need to stop associating yourself with these guys because you don't mean anything to them. You weren't "in the circle"
-
you gotta be kidding me ! Basile puts himself in company with arnold, zane, and scott...?
jesus you delusional old fool, your picture looks like crap, and you are 200+lbs of jello.
Stop trying to lecture anyone as if you come from a high seat because you competed 30+ years ago.
You never rubbed shoulders with the greats. STFU.
---and the zane pic is a really bad pshop. any retard can see that.

..VTrip, I'm fully convinced you're insane. In fact I believe you're the product of some pathetic loser out there who has a few pics of an even bigger loser, but decided to market the "Venom Vince" name for our enjoyment.
How the hell you mange to criticize ANYBODY is a mystery. You fat bag of shit! You're the scum of the earth, you fucked up individual. You're truly insane, a card-carrying member of "FantasyLand".
You deserve to get your fat-ass BEAT in the streets! I'd actually pay CASH MONEY to see that, and I'm sure you'd get a few takers for the opportunity to see that ass whoopin. And I don't feel bad about it one small bit...that's right, loser, I'd LAUGH my ASS off watching you cry like a girl, getting the shit kicked out of you. I'd eat popcorn, and leave once you lost consciousness...anybody else agree?
Forget Ernie Taylor and Guy Grundy, or any of that garbage...watching VTrip cry like a little girl, reaching for a couple poppers of bee pollen and a stick of MAGIC while wearing those appalling white trunks would make CASH, that's no joke.
Fucking IDIOT!
-
ok I don't know whats up with that pic. But could have swore that I saw a few pics in a Mag. about a year or so ago and he was looking old and flaby.
-
It's most deffiantly photochopped, Frank Zane is more into Hippy Joga and stuff than bodybuilding.

Frank is so small he has to run in the shower to get wet.

To my pal Melvin Goodrum, CSN MFT. Seems to me I am 'rubbing shoulders' with my kind here on Getbig. This is the proper place for wannabes and over the hill guys like me. Too bad I can't compete in the Junior division because I would get into shape and compete against you in the Metrolina or whatever other contest you have the nerve to enter. At least then I would train my butt off because the thought of losing to you would motivate anyone to train like there was no tomorrow!!

I hope you don't actually think Frank Zane messed with that picture. Zane doesn't EVER need to even take his shirt off to get enormous respect from anyone that competes at a high level.

Frank Zane personally emailed that photo to Shawn Perine at Ironage.us.
Frank just sent me the following message and photo. The best built 64-year-old man in the world?

Training very hard, I reached peak condition recently. Open the attachment to see the result.
Happy Holidays,

I know Shawn over 20 years and I would be very surprised if he thinks THAT pix is legit....It is so obviously faked and Shawn knows what he's looking at. Maybe someone got the pix and messed it up AFTER the real one was e mailed to Shawn.
-
Robby still looks big. Frank and Larry don't. Frank doesn't look young, either. Those days are long gone.
-

That's why it good when a guy steps on stage, then everyone knows the real deal. I don't think I ever saw a photo shop that wasn't obvious to me.

i think these are legit.

photoshopping at it's best?. yes, zane would love to dream about this physique. Besides, the old man got some guitar to play. this is zane at 64yrs old
-
photoshopping at it's best?. maybe, but hard to believe he look that ripped at that age
i like the Mario outfit though.

Works for me. My current gym is the International House of Pancakes.
-
Zane still has it, or is this shopped also?
-
Zane got into shape several times at an advanced age and looked great. I'm a big fan.
-
Dude, Frank is 72 years old now. Not 64.
And I don't care who said what, that pic was shopped, and Frank is a friend of mine.
Whoever "confirmed" whatever obviously doesn't know how to read pixels.
Yes, he looked great back then, but there was some slight "embellishment' of the side delts and Triceps.
BTW, Frank just had surgery on BOTH of his shoulders and is in a lot of pain.
Wow.
-
Sorry, just saw that someone dredged up a thread from 07'
My bad.
-
For sure it's photoshoped. I was actually impressed when I saw it, so I knew it was not real...
-
It has been confirmed by Joe Roarak and others.
No Photoshop or tricks.
This is Frank Zane today as he has been training/prepping.
Brutal thick black picture frame/outline
-
Brutal thick black picture frame/outline
And that, my friend is the first clue, without even isolating pixels....
You would have used a border of about 6 instead of 17....
Too many people photoshop... that's great, but the ones who do it well and mean to fool you... will.
There are ways to embellish without anyone seeing it, but it requires extra time and work that most people don't know about.
Photoshop these days seems to be an ALL or NOTHING type of approach. They want to enhance hue and don't think that even a smidgen of an increase on an already great shot will be noticed, so they put all of the Saturation to max... and ruin what Photoshop was intended for.
Each to his own, I don't lay down the rules, but I HATE crappy Photoshop jobs, even if it's just supposed to be funny. Why not take the time to make it believable?

I'm guessing you are an endocrinologist with years of research behind you.. why cant a 65yr old man be HRT with testosterone?

what he said.
To be without it at that age is a huge disadvantage.

Looking good. 8)

Me, only I am 70 years old. What I take is considered HRT and is prescribed by my doctor because I have low testosterone otherwise. Besides aiding me in continuing to look fit, it improves my mood. No doubt there are other benefits.

Well, the way he told me is this: He worked his side caps on his delts more than most guys worked their whole body. He did this for well over 30 years.
He used them all up. The pain became so bad that he couldn't do ANYTHING without them hurting... not even writing.
Now, the pain is so bad... he's pissy as hell. Even after they heal, they will never be the same. You heal them with a box so that your arms are at 90 degree angles. Once they heal, the box is removed and your arms are stuck out to the side.
Then you have to have "manipulative therapy" which is basically breaking away all the scar tissue that developed during the healing process...
Also.. while they are healing.... you ain't doin' shit. Someone else has to wipe you ass... and do pretty much EVERYTHING for you.
sound like fun?
He said if he had it to do all over again, he would have lifted much lighter weights, and spent much LESS time doing it. He believes he would have still had great delts.
so do I ~

Other than his shoulders is he still able to move around comfortably?

Zane is a three-time Mr. Olympia (1977 to 1979). His reign represented a shift of emphasis from mass to aesthetics. Zane's proportionate physique featured the second thinnest waistline of all the Mr. Olympias (after Sergio Oliva), with his wide shoulders making for a distinctive V-taper. His abdominals were considered by some bodybuilders to be the best in bodybuilding history. He stood at 5'9" and had a self-declared competition weight of 198 pounds when he won Mr Olympia (He weighed over 200 lbs when he competed in the 1960s). Zane is one of only three people who have beaten Arnold Schwarzenegger in a bodybuilding contest (1968 Mr. Universe in Miami, FL) and one of the very few Mr. Olympia winners under 200 pounds. Overall, he competed for over 20 years (retiring after the 1983 Mr Olympia contest) and won Mr America, Mr Universe, Mr World and Mr Olympia throughout his illustrious career.

Frank Zane looked in peak condition like a Greek God..it was balanced and proportionate. I think he was really trying to achieve a Greek Statue like Body...he succeeded or was pretty darn close !

Yeah, pretty much. He blew me away though, he trained Steve Vai's whole family... and he plays the Harmonica really good.
He finds ways to enjoy his day. He don't bitch too much, just a bit... 'agitated?'

Thanks for clearing it up and totally agree with with the notion of lighter weights/less abuse.
