Insane for such a ' light ' guy

sure mike had great forearms (no doubt), but the angle of the pic helps ALOT.

Indeed.
-
I wonder if he trained them as much as Lee Priest trained his (not at all)
-
that moustache is pretty damn awesome to!
-
indeed it is, indeed indeed, yes indeed!

He's not curling that weight, he's doing negatives you know other guys lift the weight for him and he lowers it as slowly as he can which is probably around 3 seconds with that much weight since it's most likely at the end of his bicep workout.

haha yeah i saw that now in the text ;D

Yeah, and Mike won his first pro show naturally and never used any more than three drugs at once the way Lee did. ::)
-
Incredible
-
As strong as Mike was I hear Ray was the strongest. 225 text form I could see very few doing that today.
-
I read an interview with Mike years ago where he said he did no direct forearm work. So here is a clear case of genetics at its best.
-
Brutal birth control glasses.

i remember reading he was almost up to using the whole stack on the nautilus dual leg press machine!

Mike Mentzer= delusional fucktard who got his ass handed to him by Arnold.........Mike then went nuts rampaging around the streets spouting philisophical nonsense and, drinking his own piss. What a legend. ::)

He sadly missed an awesome oppurtunity for endorsing his own line of energy drinks... "Mike Mentzer's Haterade!" Now with 80% more urine!

Unsurpassed in all of bodybuilding. At it's peak, in contest ready condition, not even Ed Corney could hold a candle to that stache. It is the standard by which all moustaches are to be judged.

What about this guy???
-
Pete Grymkoski was no slouch in the moustache department but he simply wasn't in Mike's league. The subtle curve at the lower, outer edges, the overall fullness and the sheer majesty of Mentzer's stache is simply unmatched even by today's standards. Grymko, I will grant you, showed promise, but he simply retired from the game far too early to achieve his full potential.
-

That Arnold pic where he's doing the limbo is from a weightlifting competition when he was around 16, so it's about who can lift the most weight etc.
So pointing to it as some kind of example of Arnolds normal lifting form would
be kinda silly.
-
;D
-
I have heard that Mike Mentzer used to smoke a pack of cigerettes a day.
-
poor mike so controversial .. great legs great arms .. of course .
-
Mike's forearms made love and gave birth to Hazbin.
-

^^
I saw Mike in 1994 (one of 4 pros I've met) he had super-huge forearms and I doubt he'd trained in years.
-
Yes Mike had good form on wrist curls, that is the source of his development.
-
mentzer had cool old school thick build yeah blocky a bit but strong looking and enough conditioning for that era,,,make no mistake about it those pics are cool barefooted,tank top,heavy iron,all lifting on top of each other ,,they were sauced to the gills as much or even more open than today but they had better grade drugs,stopped when needed,somewhat accepted getting smaller or softer ,,today with contracts and media,supp contracts they can't mention steroid one bit.
-
Excellent build..R.I.P. Mike

Lol,funny how all the guys had a full head of hair. Shows you how much more supps guys are on today most are bald or have hair implants
-
I had a buddy in college who would curl 185 for sets of 6-8 and hammer curled 70's. Didn't have a good chest or shoulders, but dudes arms were strong as fuck. He was only taking test dbol and deca. I'm sure these pros could curl two plates a side for a few.
-

yup

Good physique to aspire as a natural, no ?

Absolutely

I always thought Mike was a man's man....that moustache gives him that 70's porno star look
-
Formidable physique-even by today's standards, intelligent and very well read and crazy as hell, was a great guy to know, and a really good friend.
-
The very first bodybuilder I saw in person was a guy named Scott Wilson back in the early 80's. I recognized him from the magazines at the time. He was at the San Francisco Airport sitting by the departure gate where I was with my parents. He was wearing a polo shirt and shorts and had the biggest forearms I had ever seen. Most people when they think of Scott Wilson talk about his enormous shoulders, but the guy has enormous ripped forearms muscles that looked really freaky. I wonder what ever happened to that guy.

Scott was a partner in one of the first Gold's fanchises, located in San Jose. Kick ass gym.

Yes, reading his book I formed the impression that Mentzer was a massive wanker.

One word about forearms: VIATOR
-
.
-
And who also had terrific forearms, in spite of being a midget, was Steve Brisbois..
-
Mike Mentzer, the original bro-scientist.
When I think of the time, money and emotional investment that young bodybuilders put into this crap it really pains me. This is why 99% of amature bodybuilders get frustrated with their lack of results and eventually quit bodybuilding.
Drugs = quality physique
Natty = perma-bulker or twink
Those are your fucking options people. Get to know them.
