Arnold-Great Bicep Peaks
 
Sergio- Fullness and shape

Leroy Colbert-alledgedly one of the first to have 21 ichers-as he is billed
 
Larry Scott-- Shape

Boyer Coe-Awesome split biceps

Serge Nubret- Detail and shape was great, especially triceps

Ronnie Coleman- Freakiest split biceps, vascular as well

Darrem Charles-Biceps peaks like Arnold, and great detail in triceps

Flex Wheeler-Tris and Bis flow into a full circle when in a front double biceps pose-and arms are huge

Lee Priest-21 inches on a dude who is what 5'2-5'4, and they are detailed as hell, huge forearms

Marko Slavinen (sp)- Huge vascular arms, with split biceps- 24" are what his arms were rumored to be.

Paul Dillett-Huge separated vascular arms

Kevin Levrone- Huge triceps

Phil Heath- biceps remind you of Flex Wheeler, triceps of Levrone, huge forearms

Aaron Baker-Huge triceps

Robby Robinson-freaky bicep peak.

Honorable mention-Mike Matarazzo-great biceps-they "pop" when posed-but lacked detail

What's your list?

That tricep shop of Demayo was crazy, about the only time he was in shape

Bertil Fox's arms were thik as hell

And Edgar Fletcher- his arms were huge as well, and his tris stood out as well

  The best part is when he is training and they don't change shape whatsoever...  Oh and it was the steroids that did it!    ::)

i'd say Cutler belongs on that list somewhere. :o

In pure raw size, maybe, but in quality he's probably dead last. He never had a single cut/vein in his arms, all synthol.

1) Ronnie for his freaky bis and not super detailed but huge tris, best period

2) Priest of course, has midget shape to his arm but they are just so huge, even forearms

Dexter because his are almost as big as Priest's but I feel has better and non midget shape as oposed to Lee.

Heath's are the most impressive today.

Fex's(comic book character looking), Levrone's(best tris ever), Ray's and Dillet's all having complete huge and full arms.

Marko's if they were real and legit.

And for the old guys, ofcourse Arnolds were insane...best bi shape ever imo and Sergio for the size and roundness. Danny Padillas arms were also very large and probrably the most complete of the era and Robinsosn looked very impressive as well, remember the opening gym scene in PI.

I am always impressed by Jay's arms, he has no vascularity but they can get cut, and the are huge plus they are pretty round with good shpe for a white guy especialy. Also badells arms are always impressive because they are huge and deeply separated, and has good sape for a non black as well, tris look especialy huge from the back.

I think that having shredded tris is great but huge tris always impress whether at the gym or in street cloths.
Yeah Victors are great too, people keep saying how he has synthol yet he has great arm separation. I remember watching the 04 O with non bb fans friends of mine and they all thought Vic's arms were awesome cause they didn't have that swolen look like DJ's but were huge and separated giving them a very pleasing appearance.
Leo Ingram does have big arms and nice long tris, but I would ot quite group him with the others just yet.

Victor's arms in his Muscletime vid were off the meter, specifically his tris, they stood the fuck out.  Since that vid, his arms have lost detail.

Albert Beckles and Charles Clairmont both had outstanding biceps..
In 1991 Beckles was 61 and won Niagara Falls Pro contest and beat young guys like Sonny Schmidt and Milos Sarcev!!!..

Yes he had a very good looking physique in general.. I also feel he was a little underrated..

"AssChaotic" with his 18 inch guns at 6'6" definitely has to be up there with the all-time greats.

Careful Jeffro he might belive this since it's absolutely impossible for a 6'6" man to develop such mass ;D not like those 4'11" fuckers who get 18"s with in days of setting foot in a gym.
Title: Re: Best Arms list
Post by: Sherief Shalaby on October 01, 2008, 08:16:49 PM
In order
Ronnie
Arnold
Yates (HAHAHAHAHAHA NOT)
Sergio
Scott
Robinson
Priest
Heath

It's not a joke and yes Dorian can be mentioned in this list.. You already mentioned some guys with very good biceps and average triceps so it's fair to mention Dorian with his very good triceps and average biceps.. The name of the thread is (best arms) and not best biceps only..  Vince Taylor also had/has very good triceps..
