Levrone in the early 90s would be on there somewhere.

I think Coleman had the quads ever. :o :o

whenever flex magazine puts out one of those lists, of best bodyparts of all time, popularity usually triumphs over reality and truth...but i gotta say this one is pretty on point. you can argue a placing here and there, but all in all its pretty complete.

Chris Cormier and Ian Harrison could be switched with Munzer and Albrecht, although the latter had just as good a pair of legs themselves.

Tom Platz at 53:
most people outside the biz would gross out after seeing that. if he has a tumor disease on his legs.
in bodybuilding these are AWESOME legs haha.
pro bodybuilding is part of the tumor.

It's easier to get the dollar bills this way.

No Alexander Fedorov??? lol
-
Damn, awful suit, double breasted, no split, definitely not tailored (or horribly tailored).

Flex is known to include most of its "golden boys" in the "lists".
-
youl be considered a freak with that height anyway.
-
Kai should be there too
-
So hard to tell with different looks at different contests. Ronnie '03 must be some of the biggest and had great deep cuts for some of the show, although I'm sure how long he held his peak at that how. I might have expected Nasser on the list yeah, although possible synthol calves don;t help his case, even though they're not quads I know.
Why no Jay? 5 years ago he would have made the list! Early Kevin was worthy of the list, although someone's gotta go for that to happen. Shawn Ray had amazing quads! He'd make my list fo sho.
-
Freaky Wheels
-
jay's left quad deserved to be on the list, his right one not so much
-

I think that suit looks awesome
-
I think Coleman had the quads ever. :o :o
I agree, If you go by best "quadriceps" then Ronnie's are better than Platz, even Ronnie's tear drop is bigger and more balanced ....

Excellent choice, some of the best quads of his era..almost Platz-like.
-
jeff king
beat me to it.
-
jay cutler....that is a very good point a couple years ago he would have been on top of the list...fucking fairwhether friends, shame on us all
-
jeff king
NOT A WEIDER BOY BY ANY STRETCH OF THE IMAGINATION.but hell yes awesome legs .frank hillebrand had great legs too.
-

overall, gotta agree there :o

Platz is ballin

quads look pretty good here. not sure if this has been shopped or not though. his legs and calves were always great, but htey look unreal here.
are you a fucking retard? if you don't realise instantly that is photoshopped you don't know anything about bodybuilding.
-
yeah, kevin 92 had amazing quads
-
Now the fiction and rationalizations set in-Coleman never had Platz's muscle quality, deep cuts, dryness, striations nor even the same size relative to structure.
Nice try.
Paco should also be ahead of Coleman.

Not sure if that has been shopped? Oh boy... ::)
-

Paco's quads are huge, but they are ugly. I wouldn't have him on the list. An early version of Jay Cutler (circa 2001) should be on the list.
-
WOW..is that recent?
Within the past year. They were published in Musclemag.
-
Paco's quads are huge, but they are ugly.
I think it's the rest of his physique overall that's ugly, not the legs in particular plus it's subjective.

I respectfully disagree 8)

i believe this one is photoshopped.. you can say this from the size of his right shoe!!..

Fedorov had incredible quads back in 2005.

Dennis Wolf has some freaky quads, and Kevin Levrone's quads in 92 looked great.
Both have better quads than Dillet imo.
-
Freaky Wheels
Freaky hairstyle! :o

Nasser should definitely be up in the top 5 list.
thats a real mistake not to have him up there.

Ronnie's quads are larger and more separated than Platz's and are therefore superior, albeit not by much. Notwithstanding calves, Ronnie had the best legs ever imo.
I'd say Kai or Wolf has the best quads of today's competitors. Kai has crazy striations and Wolf has unreal sweep (but awful calves)

but if platz and ronnie both came in the same time, platz's quads would have been bigger!!.. so if you put the time difference in mind, platz is the winner..
-
Platz's legs are better. If you're talking specifically quadriceps - vastus muscles, rectus femoris - maybe Ronnie wins. It's questionable, Platz had better fullness and sweep. But when it comes to the adductor muscles, sartorius, hamstrings, calves it's Platz all day.
-

Yes, the pictures were published in Musclemag within the past year. Tom was 53 in the pictures and I am surprised there was never a post about them on here.

Holy fuckin' shit.
That's gotta be one of the best bodybuilding photos ever taken.
Not 1 flaw!

like wheeler levrone also had presented his best shape in his first year as a pro!.. both wheeler and levrone couldn't repeat these shapes again!..

Come on, Matt C. You're smarter than that. Platz isn't even close to 53 in those pics. I remember when those came out years ago. Look at the suit for chrissakes! Platz is barely holding 180 lbs these days. Said so in his latest interview.
[ Q ] You've probably heard the speculation on the internet. Just how are you looking these days and are you still training hard in the gym?
Well obviously I'm not the 240 pound bodybuilder people saw throughout my career - I was between 225 and 240 depending on my schedule. I'm not that weight right now. I could easily get back to over 200 and I did it in '95.
Every ten years you think about making a comeback and that's where I am now, but I decided to put my energies elsewhere. So I'm about 180 pounds right now. Compared to the '80s (Tom's prime) I'm extremely light now.

He's standing outside with no suit pants on. It's a bit strange.

Tom finds it pretty ordinary.

DARE i say munzer like with 10000.000 pct better genetics....
-
i was watching total rebuild the other day...anyone else notice what a intensly creepy individual platz was...fucking weirdo...and what kind of shoes is he wearing in those current photos, are they powerlifting shoes or track and field/shotput shoes...he has that same type of shoe on in almost every photo ever taken of him.
Great quads by the way, but creepy none-the-less...
-
I've got no problem with Platz winning the list, although if I could choose I'd probably have Demayo's legs, I think Kai is getting close to Branch, certainly he has more interesting cuts and stuff, and Branch presumably doesn't grow his as big as he could, there's a pretty high standard for legs these days, half the guys have crazy quads now, even 3rd tier guys like Fankhouser and little guys like Silvio have massive cut legs. I would even suggest that apart from all the different drugs around now, the emphasis on bigger legs is a definite contributing factor to all the bigger midsections these days, since you can't squat massive weights without your waist absorbing some of the poundage. Iron-age = smaller legs + smaller waists. I know Platz was iron age but common the guy's a FREAK!
-
Ronnie at the 2004 Olympia had the best quads of any bodybuilder ever, hands down. The problem that I have with Ronnie 2004 Olympia is that the quads were the only positive thing about his physique. Everything else was a mess.
