Vince looks like a spider monkey.

Vince had an ideal physique and was the years ahead of his time when it pertained to diet and training.

Arnold = God ahead of his time.

True he had the sort of physique that was suited for only being small and ripped rather than "fat" like that porker Schwarzenegger. He had some weird ideas about training though. Squats are a waste of time for example.
And Vince saying that Arnold had a big ego has to be just about the biggest pot ever to call a kettle black.

Heres an excerpt from a great article on gironda
Gironda brought Larry Scott up from a 157-pound guy with average genetics to a 207-pound winner of the Mr. Olympia contest. He also worked with bodybuilding legend Mohammed Makkawy, one of the most shredded and aesthetic bodybuilders of all time. Mohammed never won the Olympia, but he did finish second twice (1983 and 1984) and won several pro contests.
Heres the rest if u want to check it out ;D

Did Larry Scott have any competition for the title, weren't most of his wins just him by himself or standing next to one other guy?

Another failed thead Alex23! ;D
Exhibit A:
Vince said to Arnold, "You're nothing but a fat you-know-what."
He walked into Vince's Gym (John Balik, the editor of IRONMAN can substantiate this story as he was standing right there) and said, "I'm Arnold Schwarzennegger from Austria and I'm Mr. So and So." Vince looked up at him through his granny glasses and responded, "You're nothing but a fat you-know-what." For two years, Arnold spent time at Vince's Gym Then, after Joe Weider signed him, he went on to become a movie star and multi-millionaire.
Years later, Arnold told Balik that was the best thing that ever happened to him because he thought he was king of the world and Vince brought him right down, shattered his ego. That about sums up Vince and says a lot for Arnold.

Hahahaha nice "research" but clinging to old crap; I've heard the story ten different ways;
The most plausible is Arnold laughed up so loud, showing his legendary gap, that Gironda toupee frizzled.
Stormed out and the rest his history.

More legendary second hand tales of Arnold being owned by nobodys. Passed down from person to person, from generation to generation until they resemble nothing more than a bad game of Chinese whispers.

Arnold was a fat fuck when he went to Vince. Vince taught Arnold how to diet for shows. If it wasn't for Vince Arnold may have never beat Sergio. Vince made Arnie better than the soft foreigner with great arms when he came to the US.

Arnold was not perfect by any means. His legs were tiny. His arms were not harmonious as his biceps were far too big for his tricep. His chest was also droopy.
He was very much flawed.

It's not like someone else couldn't have told him how to diet you know, someone from all the gyms he trained in, of all the pros he trained with etc.
You make it sound like if Arnold hadn't met Vince who was apparently the one and only font of knowledge at the time he would have been spinning his big fat wheels to this very day shaking his big jowls and scratching his head while pondering the eternal riddle of dieting that he never learnt because Vince died and took the info to his grave.

You're right, if only he'd had access to synthol he could have pumped his weak bodyparts with gallons of oil like Nasser did with his biceps and delts.
Pity Synthol can't be used in the back muscles because Nasser may have won a competition or two and he'd be remembered for something other than trashing other pro's in bitter interviews or selling his used man panties on the internet. ;)

Ummm.....no.
Gironda said, when Arnold walked into his gym and imperiously announced, "It is me, Arnold...Mr. Universe", as though all are automatically supposed to kn ow him.
Gironda: "You look like a Fat Fuck to me..."
Priceless ;D

There are very few Arnold tricep shots around. Sharma's words may ring true.

No. He went aghainst very good bb's such as Chuck Sipes and ZHrold Poole and I think Oliva one year.
Poole could have contended, but there was said to be some avarice towrds having a black supplant the Blond champion back then, unfiortunately

Sounds like you have another entry for your oxymoron thread. ;)

I've been reading a little on Gironda, and while he was ahead of his time physique-wise, he seemed to be a prick personality-wise.

haha. Pretty good....pretty, pretty good (As Larry David would say)

I've been reading a little on Gironda, and while he was ahead of his time physique-wise, he seemed to be a prick personality-wise.
We went into his gym when I was 18, we had read about him for years in the mage.
We approached him at the counter, and lended some superlatives to him and said we wanted to train.
"Pffftttt..." he said. He threw som,e brochures at us and walked away.
Great businessman?

Weider sent Schwarzenegger to the best by sending him to Gironda. It was for everything-diet, training, etc. Joe knew exactly what he was doing. Vince putting the perennially arrogant Arnold in his place was part of it too.
As far as his personality, I have no problem with it, he was a purist. His personality was no more obnoxious than Schwarzenegger's actually lol none of the Arnold ball-washers realize it. ;)
Sharma's wrong on Schwarzie's tris though, it's a common misperception. Both he and Coleman had good size, lacking only the sharp cuts needed to stand out against outrageous biceps in both cases.
-

Vince Gironda was a complete dick. He certainly had good conditioning though which was his only redeeming quality.
And I don't know if Arnold had triceps I mean there is something hanging off the back of his arms which could be triceps..... it's some kinda swelling..... like he had an allergic reaction to some bee stings maybe? I guess it will always be a mystery for the ages. :)

Yup. My boy was on the verge of breaking outta his shell.
-
Arnold's biceps did overpower his triceps. Obviously when he is training triceps they will be pumped and the imbalance will not be so marked, or apparent at all (as in pictures of him doing pressdowns) His triceps were not intrinsically bad but they were out of proportion with his truly remarkable biceps.
-

Agreed. It seemed to me that if someone didn't listen to Vince or didn't do something he said they were automatically wrong and didn't know shit. It was as if everyone was wrong and Vince was always right.

And yet another failed thread for Alex23.
Oh how the once mighty have fallen!

If you had the worlds greatest biceps you can be forgiven if your triceps don't quite match-up. :)

Still his arms look pretty damn complete to me.

Gironda was the guy who forbade his pupils from squatting because it thickened the waist, and from benching because it resulted in "droopy pecs". The guy was a complete cook, and the guys he looked wouldn't get booked on a shirtless modeling job nowadays.

Before steroids you say? Wow what an acheivment! he built a true Baywatch physique all pecs and abs with 14 inch arms and he did it without roids, simply amazing.

If you look at the physiques built before the use of steroids his is not out of place - although it's not the finest by any means.

Because if Arnold junior had to be raised by that garden gnome it would seriously suck! :o

I thought it was when arnold lives with frank zane that he learned the correct way to diet for a show...

Yeah I've heard that as well. It was also when he lost to Zane that he realised mass alone wasn't going to be enough. Oh well it seems like there is quite a few people who want to claim credit for Arnolds success.

Your probably right now that I've run out of GHB I haven't been as lucky with ladies. ;)

Yes. The gal with Arnold is saying:"Well, I might as well leave my husband. No that I have sat on Arnold's lap, how can I ever do better?"

Your right he doesn't really do tricep poses very often though going by other photo's he doesn't seem to be overly lacking in that area.

You got that right. Hell, this is the very pose Arnie hits when a side-tricep is called for as seen in The Comeback.

Honestly back than nobody did diet like that. Everyone thought soft was the ideal before Vince and Larry Scott. Vince brought a new level of conditioning. He was a pioneer. There's a good chance Arnie's diet would have been fucked had it not been for Vince.

Arnold got on well with Vince G and acknowledges that he learnt a lot from him. They fell out when Arnold said that he heard that Vince had been less than complimentary about him behind his back.
