Tom Platz only did 12 IFBB shows.  But he won best legs in every one!

Ronnie has better quads  ;)

rons legs leave a lot to be desired , need calves to have complete legs and Platz legs destroy Colemans ! Hulkster thinks Ronnie's quads are better than Platz and thats garbage .

rons legs destroy platz legs...(platz legs overpowered his upperbody thats why his legs looked bigger than they where..in comparison to ronnie..who also has a gigantic upperbody)

dont get me wrong...platz had amazing legs. but some guys claim he had the biggest legs of all time...which is bs..several current pros have bigger legs.

altho bigger isnt always same thing as best legs.

neither ronnie or platz have the best legs of all time. i prefer more proportional legs with lots of separation.

Platz legs are COMPLETE Ronnie's ARE NOT I'm not talking about proportion & balance in relation to the torso I'm talking specifically about legs , Platz has better balance & proportion within his entire leg complex he is without ANY flaw in legs period . Ronnie has flaws bigger isn't better not by a long shot.

i was talking about size. some people actually claim platz legs are bigger than ronnies, which isnt true. yeah i gotta agree platz had more complete legs than ronnie...including calves.

but i think there are bodybuilders who have better legs than both of them.

ronnies legs are too big. and his ass is that of an 500lbs ghetto booty bitch.

to be honest i always thought platz looked like shit too (relatively speaking of course)...with his gigantic legs and pretty poor upperbody (altho he improved on his upperbody...) also platz had shitty arms.

Tom needs some gym time under his belt to look even remotely like he did years ago. In fact in Lee's recent video with Tom you wouldn't know Tom had ever been a bodybuilder, his arms tape at MAX 13.5 now. But that's all OK because as we know Tom has been there and done all that.

Well if they're talking pound for pound maybe Platz leg's are bigger in that context but I doubt it , his quads I believe were 30" and Ronnie's I believe are 35" and Coleman is 5'11" and Platz was 5'7" so in that context it might be close but outright bigger NO WAY

and I agree with just about everything you said but Tom is up there with anyone for best legs

Tom only did squats? i thought the king of legs would do a ton of exercises and sets.

btw Lee. do you know how a typical Tom Platz leg workout looked like back when he was in his prime?

when he was younger he alternated between a rep day and a heavier day.

later on... he only hit squats like once every 2 weeks and went ALL out. some of his best lifts are
20 with 600
15 with 635
38 with 405
100+ with 225

and yes these stats are true.

those are a little bit off, MEF, Tom himself claimed 600 for 10, 495 for 23, 405 for 32 and 315 for 50, i had a Powerlifter Video that used to advertise in the back of PL USA and on that video he did 335 for 34 with a close stance and the last 4 were VERY HARD, so i'm doubting the 600 for 20.

but his strength increased a lot during the 80s. he was strongest mid 80s.

he claimed 635 for 12 in 84.
and 635 for 15 in 86.

I actually asked tom about these numbers and he verified them.

yeah i might believe those numbers, he would have to be heavier and up around 230-235 but i'd give him those weights.

but he really was built to squat. Perfect mechanics.

yep, helps that he learned from the Olympic lifters way back at his gym in Detroit, they had him squatting twice a week and taught him their form with the close stance, high bar and good depth.
