I like the guy. But his arms and legs just look SMALL here.

Everythin looked fine and well balanced for a physique of the past generation,.

in that case, his chest and back looked like they were too BIG and not right for that generation.
Seriously, his chest looks too wide. his back looks too wide. He's a heck of a nice guy, family man, etc. But I can't see how he beat guys with bigger arms and legs.
-
I've always thought he had a weird physique, he was also the first true mass monster if I recall correctly competing at 250 pounds yet he looks nowhere near 250 pounds which is opposite of what you mostly have, looking bigger than they weigh

Hes an 8-time Mr Olympia

Even arnold had bigger and better arms, chest and calves way back in the 70s... Don't know about back, quads and shoulders though.

Irrelevant; still way out of balance. Interesting how most are oblivious to contest politics, as if all Olympia wins were on merit.
-
Haney is an all-time great 8)
-
Haney must have thought that if he smiles he will get more points, im sick of all these bodybuilders put on a fake smile while posing, they look like clowns. Arnold meant business and was serious while posing. Fakers.
-
i was never a fan of Lee Haney's physique either. I could never understand the hype. ??? ??? ???
-
At least his posing is better than 99.99% of todays BB

Yes, you don't see a well balanced physique too much anymore on the pro level.
-
Haney had weak bodyparts if you looked at them individually. But when you saw the whole package it was like DAMN! The overall impact of his physique was tremendous for his time.

i'm glad my arms dont look this small

LOL! HE does look great. But the balance is definitely missing.
-
no of the bbers in his time were 100% well balanced,.BALANCE only became a big hit and realized by judges since Dorian won the Olympia,
-
Lee's legs were as good as 99% of the pros in his day, his forearms were massive. So what if his upper arms were a bit off, on stage he owned everyone. Pros today have less proportion then the guys did back then and GH guts 10'' bigger.
i agree that the guts throw off any notions of 'balance'
-
will u only see winners with guts on olympia stage ,not in other contests
-
in all fairness, Gaspari had some twiggy arms too.

it's kind of funny how you guys speak in relative terms. Haney and any other pro has arms bigger than 99.9% of getbiggers and the average person, hell the average gym rat would consider those arms MASSIVE

yes, but we're comparing PRO bodybuilders. Perhaps YOU compare yourself to pros. We do not.
Compared to Bertil Fox, Gaspari had twig arms. Better?

For those who were training and following pro bodybuilding in Haney's era, I remember that everyone wanted to look like Lee Haney..He was clearly the best by a mile.

No champ is perfect.
Arnold really was all chest and biceps, right?
Trophy goes to the man with least flaws and most size, period.
