I dont think it has been discussed here before, but who has the biggest difference in size from calf to ankle?
I think at one point (1971) Arnold was the most dramatic ever.
-
honestly i see regular non-trained people walking around all the time with calves just like that. calves are 100% genetic

yep, really. anyways the most ridiculous ratio is probably matarazzo

unfortunately so
ask Mattarazzo how often he trained his cows

I had a friend never done a calf raise in his life had fucking huge calves = mostly genetics.

Those are guys with big calves but thick ankles as well...Maybe Taylor has small ankles.

Wheeler, Dillet, Taylor small joints and ankles....no racist

i have 2 german buddies who dont even train and have massive calves, 18"+.

I bet the have big joints and probably over weight.

the nuthuggers are going to hate this, but at 290 pounds, ronnie in 2003 was right up there.
too bad his quads were probably 35" around though..
-
I agree calves are "mostly genetic", whatever that means for sure, perhaps more so than other muscle groups. However most people also half-ass them in the gym and do a couple sets once a week after a leg workout. If you do a couple sets once a week for your chest or arms they'll suck too.

Sorry Hulk as much as I love ronnie, he's not even close to being in the running. He did have good calves later in his career but nothing comparable to the greats.
-

Yes both of them have puny upper bodies with thick quads, and have calves that look like 2 but cheeks side by side. And yeah they also have big joints.

BOOM!!!!!!!!
Best set of calves on a negro since Goodrum got raped by those baby calfs ;D
Oh yeah, no synthol and no esciciline (sp?)

Damn genetics rule for calves.

yeah, i'm surprised. when i was training i don't think they were more than an inch bigger than that. they looked better tho. my arms have shrunk about two inches since i quit.

You are seriously obsessed. lol.
Only you would try and bring Ronnie into a calves thread. lol
-
Ankle to calf ratio I would have to say it's close between Aaron Baker, Mike Matarrazo and Vince Taylor - all had absolutely tiny joints so the ratio would have been pretty large.

His triceps were huge as well. He seemed to train in a slow, but torturous rate. And in the BFTO series, the 97 one, he did biceps curls with a straight bar, which if you have small wrist and joints (like a lot of black people do) that straight bar is a killer for them--but they eventually get used to it, and the forearms look better.

Obsessed or do you mean stupid? he's already claimed Ronnie's calves were more detailed than Dorians , he's a fucking idiot nothing new

just leave him be please.

yes, I claimed that simply to show the nuthuggers how to prove something. no one would think for a minute that it were actually true.
and it still took them about 10 pages after I said it for them to actually clue in and prove it wrong using visuals.
but they were too dumb to understand the point of the excercise.
the nuthuggers babble on posting total bullshit without corroborating proof.
they avoid the visuals because it shows their arguments are wrong.
I stepped up and taught them a lesson, but they were too stupid to understand it.
typical dumb nuthuggers.. ::)

You proved something alright , how fucking stupid you are. ;) run along homo

chaos on getbig.com has them all beat

Hulkster makes a point that having large thighs will make your gastros look small.
Tom Platz had great gastros too but due to his sheer thigh size they didn't appear extraordinary.
-
I always make good points because I am very smart, this is something that ND and co have yet to learn.. :-*

Yates
Wheeler
Aaron Baker
Maz
Vince Taylor
Fankhouser
Dillet
Wheeler, seriously??? NO, I'd say Shawn Ray or Chris Dickerson, or even Chris Cormier. Wheeler's calves were suspect, just like his arms.

yeah like Ronnie has more detailed calves real smart :-X oh and Dorian lost the 1993 Mr Olympia to Flex another Hulkster gem ;) run along dummy

Dude, thats why they are supposed to keep their thighs balanced to their quads.
Thats why Shawn Ray downsized his legs, he stopped training them because his quads were outgrowing the rest of his body.
Thats part of BB, not just trying to make your bodyparts the biggest and freakiest, but by creating the complete package.

like I said, you were too dumb to understand the point of that exercise, and you are proving to everyone that you still don't understand it.
like most things on this board and bodybuilding related, they went right over your head.
how sad. :'(

I agree to a point, Platz most certainly, but with Ronnie it didn't seem over the top. :)

Show me a fat post man with small calves and I believe the genetics excuse. ;)
-
I had a friend never done a calf raise in his life had fucking huge calves = mostly genetics.
A dad of a friend of mine growing up was like that.....they were huge, perfect diamonds....and he was a 300lb plus fat slob.....

I expected a pic of chaos by now.

Nasser had one of the best if not the best calves in human history
Just look at them relaxed here on the bedside :o

That wasn't question. It was calf to ankle ratio and from what I remember Nasser had 21inch cows, I remember the flex issue but his thck joints probably DQ him.

right, you mean ronnie's failed experiment with synthol
and they still blew

synthol? LOL
sorry buddy, but his calves always looked like that, although they were smaller when he was 50 pounds lighter.
it amuses me how people have to insist ronnie used synthol for no reason with no proof.
in fact, the visuals all confirm the exact opposite: that he never used it.
but people ignore this proof and say it anyway.. ::)

Best calves for a few years. This guy new to the scene? Could do some serious damage if he can recover from that pec tear..
-
unfortunately so
ask Mattarazzo how often he trained his cows
(http://www.builtreport.com/matarazzo/matarazzo016.jpg)
Agreed, I think it's between Mazz and Dorian for best calves ever, but Dorian had thicker ankles and Mazz has the most dramatic shape imaginable.

yeah, but here is the "woman" who takes your flowers: :-X
Your ex? :-X

wow, could you imagine being able to view all the synthol this nutsack has pumped into his body over the years in front of you.
it would probably fill buckets

I think he's got bicep/tricep implants.

and his calves and chest?

He is all-natural you guys are just haters.

Exxon Valdez all the way.

wow, this guy is my new favorite synthol legend
look at that abcess on the back of his left tricep :o :o :o, this guy is the best, i think he should be the most popular bodybuilder on the guestposing circuit
-
No synthol on this guy. You can see veins and cuts and that means no synthol. Just A LOT of skullcrushers and egg whites built those impressive triceps.
