Cue that idiot that think that Ronnie only had a 21 inch arm...

should show that picture where a blonde chick who is holding ronnies arm...she told the crowd afterwards, "my boyfriends big and black and he'll kick yo ass"

Ronnie doesn't have oil in his arms. You can see the muscle fibers clearly, and there aren't any soft lumps.

Those things are only noticeable if you use too much. If you do it properly and in moderation it will not create the lumps and you can see the fibres.
There is synthol use (widespread) and misuse (the cases where it's obvious)
-
No oil in those arms. Ronnie has split striated biceps you idiots...compare it to Nasser's breast implant of an arm....watch Ronnies training video and tell me that isnt just crazy genetics and hard muscle.... ::)

That has nothing to do with it. If you inject small amounts under the muscle it merely pushes it outward. It has no effect on the surface appearance of the muscle.
Some of you seem to think the only cases of synthol use are when it looks awful. They don't inject it because it makes them look bad..they do it becuase if they do it properly it can add an inch or two to their arms. It's only the rare cases they fuck it up that it's 100% obvious. However, those are only the few who get caught.
They get caught because it works and can enhance a physique. Again, that's why they do it in the first place. They go too far and then it's tricky to hide.

Some of the best arm GENETICS
-
TrueGrit....look at Ronnies early pics...he ALWAYS had insane biceps/split peak...you think he needs oil to "push it outward"? Pleeaseee....

That's not really a counter to my point. Synthol is used because it can increase the size of certain muscles whilst retaining the exact look and shape. This is done by using small amounts and injecting it under the muscle. So he would always keep his split peak if he didn't start to use too much. Synthol is not intrinsically bad, like plastic surgery. Bad synthol use is like bad cosmetic surgery. However, most times it enhances the body.
I know this is upsetting but a bit of synthol - again, not the awful examples of those who went overboard with it - is as much a part of a bodybuilder's regime as the injections of AAS, Insulin, GH and the use of diuretics. Remember, we are talking about people who will use anything that will enhance their physique. Despite the misconceptions, synthol used properly does just that.
-
what evidence is there of synthol use in Ronnie's arms?
saying that 'just because much lesser bodybuilders who would do anything to catch up to Ronnie use it too' is NOT evidence.
look at these arms:
then compare them to someone like Flex Wheeler with obvious synthol use:
-
no synthol here:
-
point observed....we all get the concept...or have heard rumors of Flex Wheelers numerous microinjections....but i think Ronnie's arms way too good "Naturally" too bother.....calves is another story where our topic might get oily...LOL ;)
-
Amazing. Amazingly unbalanced - biceps way too big for the triceps. Synthol all the way.
Ronnie had visible splits in his biceps most of the time. Kinda hard to achieve with oil, don't you think?

Actually the balance between bis and tris is pretty good if you pay attention because the tris are huge.

Add Priest to that list as someone else suggested.
Sorry, but to me none of them can compare to the size/shape/detail Ronnie had. All fantastic bodybuilders in their time, but IMO Priest beats all of the ones in your list, and Ronnie is just better than Priest as far as I am concerned
-
Cannon...good argument and I did say 'others', I agree with Priest 100%....all look great in diff ways....opinions vary
-
ronnies arms are a joke comparesd to arnies , you people are semi retarded!
-

Granted, Arnie may be arguably the best bodybuilder ever, and he had insane chest and arm development. But if you look at arms, and arms only then IMO nobody can compare to Ronnie.
With all that said my opinion of the ideal physique would be Charles Clairmonte (if anyone remembers him)
-
Yes, Clairemont was outstanding
-
Arnie best of all time? Not really, he was the best of his time, but Coleman in his prime vs Arnold his prime and Coleman wins IMO. Coleman was the best BB'r we've ever seen and might possibly ever see.

Yes...that pic is from 96...96 to 98 is when he looked best, IMO.
-
He looks bad here
Sure, not the best pic, but nevertheless he had clearly visible splits in both biceps. I remember when I first saw a pic of Ronnie in a mag about 1990. The arms and back were among the best I had seen, and that was before he "blew up" later in the 90s.

you = on rocks
those are the best arms in the business. he took bits of all of their arms to create the arms he had
Awesome peak, split bicep, full triceps, biceps brachii...this dude had it all...long live king ronnie

what in fucks name are you talking about chief...my dad is a thin puerto rican..not teh strong...

Oh...don't put me in the same sentence as cocaine, please.
And again, its all based on Opinion, chap.

I was kidding around....and I know some very thin, puerto rican boxers that could knock Arnie AND Ronnie the f--- out!

i know im one of the biggest kidders on here. my dad boxed in bronx in the 60s and 70s.
btw vince taylor has the awesome peaks also..oh and on one more note. i hate just throwing the synthol card around but have yall ever taken a look at dareem charles biceps relaxed
-
Yes Mal...unfortunately, one never knows these days....who is real and who is not so real :)
-
maybe dareem uses the nano x9 for that insane pump...
-
Ronnie had a split bi on each peak, freaky as hell, freakier than Arnie's. End of story....
-
As far as a split goes...the honor for the best in history, in my weathered opinion, is that of Boyer Coe.
He actually had a specific pose designed just to show the split.
-
backstage pics are always more impressive than onstage for some reason!!!

Ronnie looks like he has a triple peak on his left arm
in the first pic.
Heath is the only other BB I've seen this on, only to a much lesser
extent.
Ronnie's peaks were truly incredible.

He had a great split, not as freaky as Ronnie's, and split between his Bis and tris were horrible.

Still Gunther owns Ronnie in that pic. His arms are bigger and more seperated.

DAMN!

WTF pic are looking at. Ronnie owns Gunter in that shot...look at the freaking arms. If Ronnie's bis are split, then that right there is separation. Plus the there is def split and definition between the bis and tris...let alone the detail in the arms... You wearing shades or something?
-
ANYONE who thinks Ronnie used Synthol is a moron who knows NOTHING about bodybuilding

Schwarzenegger post-hormones.
Coleman beats him on virtually every criteria-size, cuts, separationi, leaness, vascularity, etc. You could argue that Arnold's arms are better as a matter of taste factoring in intangibles like aesthetics but when you go down the list of tangibles he's not in the same sentence.
-

lol just measure the screen genius, Coleman's arms are physically bigger in absolute terms even though he's quite a bit shorter, plus he's got Gunter on cuts, separation and peak too.
-
Of course Ronnie has used synthol at some stage of his career.
when will you guys understand that all pros use it, they just don't admit it.
truegrit is right, you people only seem to think that synthol does the bad shit. you don't even consider that the only time you're fully aware of it is when it goes wrong. like botox or something.
a modern pro will definitely use synthol. Also, the split peak is irrelevant if used properly it will enhance definition, not ruin it.
why can you not understand when even the best pros like Nasser has told you that THEY ALL USE IT. you only aware of it when they use too much or have a bad reaction

Ronnie's arms have looked the same since he started, they just got bigger...So you know very little of how Syn. is used.

Didn't gh15 say Ronnie was synthol free?

Hi Ronnie
-

Then please elaborate on 'how it is used'. If you answer that they use synthol to create deformed muscles and lose definition then you demonstrate that it's you who knows very little of how it's used.
The reason why they use it is because it increases muscle size, shape and density whilst actually improving definition. It is a positive thing (for men obsessed with increasing their size) if used properly and in moderation. I can't understand why so many people cannot understand a very simple fact: most - probably all - of them use it, you're only aware of it on the rare occasions they use too much and fuck it up.

Because, Ronnie has always been know for his bis, that double peak has always looked the same, same as his triceps, and definition ofsaid muscle groups. Actually in one vid, his arms measured at 21 inches at a relatively high bodyweight, and looked smaller, which shows he wasn't training them as much...Also Ronnie is one of the most old school bbers there is. When Flex went the Syn. route, he looked different, but not that much, it was only after Shawn Ray had said Flex looked like he was stung by bees, did it become suspicious. Ronnie on the other hand has always had that dry look, even back in the early 90's. Tris and bis have ALWAYS looked the same.
And think many of them use it, especially those who aren't blessed with Phil Heath's or Dex genetics...

WOOOOSHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!
but there is one major difference between Ronnie and people like Vince and Robby:
they all took long breaks between competing ie years off.
Ronnie hasn't.
he has gone non stop since 92.
Robby took a long break between 91 and his master's olympia wins.
so did Vince.
and besides, he was over 40 when this shot was taken: 8)
