I like it aside from his short legs on that torso. I think if he legs were longer it his physique would look better.

I don't know , I think weird abs ,big obliques and no quad sweep.

Longer legs+sweep I think would make a big difference. To me looks like decent torso with midget legs.

Most guys would give their left nut to look like Zane there, yet there are the ever present comments of "skinny", or wait for it, "swimmer". ::)

Seriously, what do you look like? He's not big because he's not carrying a lot of bulk, i.e., fat, but he is carrying a whole lot of muscle.

He'd be considered a fitness model in this day and age.

And 10 times out of 10, the guys who call him skinny are just bulky fat guys who don't carry nearly the same amount of muscle in ratio to their height.
BTW, that pic does make his legs look a little short but pics are deceiving. It's just one moment frozen in time.

He has weaker traps than my grandma's corpse which has been in the ground for 10 years

LOL! The standard by which all owning machines are measured. I would have expected nothing less.
This place hasn't been the same with just your sporadic visits.

Compared to the pro's these days he is skinny. But, I think it's safe to say most of us would give our left nut to look like that year round

I think he's about 5'10" 190-195 lbs right there.

His abs aren't really that great considering either, just lack that classic 6 pack, let alone 8 pack. He looks more like he has a 4 pack. Needs larger arms too :)

kyomo pwns him

That there is a man who needs to start building some muscle.

More bodyfat, why?
-
He has certain structural shortcomings, but he looks a thousand times better than any modern BB.

This is the physique I'm aiming for .. just a bit more legs.
I think I'll be able to achieve a very similar look within the next 2-3 years..

one of the best all around for his era builds in terms of shape,conditioning ,he ushered in what is still judged to this day a look needed to be in for contest stage,from that pic alone bigger traps as was stated would have thrown off his overall shoulder look which even though he was 5'9 190 or so ,he had good delts and a wide look for his structure.def a top physique,not a ton of muscle but what was there was quality and that mattered in his era,today well all the guys from 202 to open carry more muscle than zane but still he was conditioned as good or better than some guys today.
-
anyone know what kind of routine he followed? volume or HIT like mentzer?
this is the best pic i have ever seen of zane, who normally doesnt do much to impress.

He was a Mr. O before HIT started coming into vogue. Dude is part of the OG Arnold generation. Beat Arnold in '69.

Who are you, Funk51? You sound like a good old ironager. Look at Ed Corny in that shot. That guy must have been a pussy wrecking machine back in the day. Sucks getting old.
-
Not many people know this, but Zane never lifted any weights while he competed.
He did swim 8 miles a day, though - his only training.
-
Perfection!
Simply my ultimate goal to achieve (Naturally)

Bullshit, this guy has a lot of muscle mass.
What are you comparing him too? Cutler, Fux and Nasser?
Exactly. I'd like to see what DEA guy looks like.

he was in his late 40's there, great physique, fantastic poser, as everyone knows...
-
Zane looks superb in that photo. Not many ever look that good. He was bigger than people think. Frank went for a look and he achieved that and won three Mr Olympia titles against very good competitors. That is how you are supposed to stand 'relaxed' and not with arms out to the side that almost everyone else does and looks ridiculous.

Doesn't he look so much better without the huge obliques?
-

Can't be. It's pre-mustache which he had in PI where he was around 45 yrs. Mid late 30s at the most.

I use to love IronAge. Been there since '03. It's gotten a bit too stuffy for my since Shawn turn the board over. I gotten booted after Joe Meeko passed away. His death really got to me as he made such a strong impression on me. He was just such a good and decent guy. He's one of the few that inspires you to want to be a better person. This place tends to bring out the worse in me. But at least it's not boring

In today's world there are those who have given both nuts to look far less than that.

Corney started training late, he also shaved and grew the stache various times.

Kid, when you're 19, you think you can do anything. Reality will soon set in and then you'll realize that you can't.

How the hell can you knock his structure??? Fine, he didn't weigh 250 pounds the way you like your men, but he had one of the best structures in the history of bodybuilding.
-
Zane always had a gym bag full of PED
-
Zane was EXTREMELLY lucky that in the years 1976 to 79:
Arnold was chasing Hollywood(retired)
Franco broke one leg (out)
Sergio was Tired of Joe BS (out)
Lou was doing the Hulk (retired)
Serge was banned from the IFBB (out)
Youre talking that Frank Zane would have been lucky to crack the top six those years (given the fact that every guy mentioned above would have been at their peak had they been in the game in the late 70's)
So there you have it folks Frank Zane 3 x Mr.O ! Looking like an average 165 pounds Truck driver's side kick :(

Which would make you what? The out of shape pork rind eating truck driver?
-
If Zane had 3-5 cm longer legs (with a lil more mass), he'd have a perfect physique.
-
Zane looked great and was known as the chemist due to his ability to treat coughs.

so ur saying he carried "robitussin"in his gym bag and not other "supps"?
-

Add a lil more mass and a few inches on his legs as well.

Kid, when you're 19, you think you can do anything. Reality will soon set in and then you'll realize that you can't.
I'm 22 , not 19.
I've been training for more than 8 years by now , reality has already set in a long time ago.
My genes for building muscle and strength are average at best , my response to hormones is pretty poor BUT my metabolism is really fast,
which keeps me pretty lean year round and my shape is very aesthetic , actually very similar to Zane's physique.
I'm not that far off that it would be completely impossible to achieve a look like that within the next 3 years. I know what my body is capable of
so I'm sure I will be able to add at least 6-8 pounds of lean muscle mass over that period.. I'm 223lbs@5'11'' while still being fairly lean. Last year I was at a pretty ripped 196... my legs might already be better than his.

just remember that the sum total of the parts, the complete package is what Zane, Benfatto, etc were all about.
But it sounds great, best of luck with your goal. Update us with pics.

Yeah I know , weight does not say a lot about how much of a bodybuilder you are.
My waist is small , small joints .. as I said similar structure.
I'm not the bulky guy who looks huge in clothes but when I take my shirt off people are very suprised.

Because not EVERY bodybuilder was banned or retired those particular years, Ironically only the ones that were better than Zane were out of the picture.
Luck at its best.

It wasn't luck. I was there for all of Zane's Olympia wins (1977-79) and he deserved every one of them. He was way better in person than in pictures. He didn't look small at all onstage (the bodybuilders at that time weren't 280 pounds) and he brought conditioning to a whole new level at the time. He was a master at presenting his physique perfectly and his posing and stage presence was outstanding. True, he couldn't beat Arnold or Sergio but he beat some great bodybuilders during his time and it definitely wasn't just luck. Another thing about Zane that you cannot say about every Mr. Olympia winner was that he made substantial improvements every year he won. He was both bigger and more ripped at each of his Olympia wins.

he was fucking tiny. this is supposed bodybuilder not body shaping. overrated.

Yet he comes back as a gimmick and follows me around starting new threads devoted to me. He's never recovered from the whole DA/Alex23/Benz incident. Not the same Squad.
