Still the best all time.
Being his height and similar biceps the inspiration got me into training, most people get started due to a inspiration and or poor self image. A bunch of bloated crap in the game today.

Yes, these warriors died for us! They risked it all!

na man alan vega had the best physique
knowing that arnold juiced his mind out just ruins the mystique and everything that bodybuilding truly is
bodybuilding doesnt mean shit about looks, it did in the past, but now in this day in age those muscles were all fake just like fill heat , just filling up with roids for a 'look' that isnt even functional and would lock up and be worthless in real life situations
that kinda of build is only for posing for f@gs. why would that be a "best phsyique" neither one of us look nothing like that we are more closer to alan vega
but atleast alan vega did somethign with his body he made music

Arnold pisses all over Flex

lmao. bro Flex Wheeler had the sickest genetics of all time. Comparing Arnold to Flex is just not being real. We are all fans of Arnold but he is no flex. And dont give me the whole "if Arnold had competed in this era" stuff. Arnold simply would not ever compare to flex.

Yeah, seeing Arnold back then it was more impressive. (when you were young and unknowing about what it takes)
Seeing him today as an old wreck you see things in another perspective.

Let me check this, I'm looking at this list of Mr O's oh sweat I don't see Flex on it. So why has he never won a O? Not knocking him great genes no doubt.

Flex is one of the most genetically gifted BB's ever but Arnold is BodyBuilding - No doubt flex had beautiful lines and proportion but Arnold is King - he is Bodybuilding and without him Flex proberly never would of picked up a barbell as a lot of us here wouldn't have.. It's the aura of the man and he inspires more than any other BB in history to start training/building there physiques and he has not competed in over 30 years, says alot about the man.
You can still look at his pics and think "look at this hunk of man" haha I mean go WOW!!! that's a physique to be proud of - sorry Matty F it slipped out ;D

god of hormones

What competition did these guys face when they were competing? I heard that Arnold was the only guy in the heavyweight division one year at the Olympia. LOL
Dorian Yates soundly beat the likes of Shawn Ray, Lee Labrada, Kevin Levrone, Flex Wheeler, Nasser El Sonbaty, Sonny Schmidt, Paul Dillett, Andreas Munzer, Charles Clairmonte, Chris Cormier and last but not least Ronnie Coleman.

Perfect frame, great physique. Having movie star looks was obviously a big help in his popularity and holy status

Steve was great no doubt, but not in Arnold's "league" of course that years before Arnold.

yeah not wanting to go off topic but i do not agree physique wise Arnold was the best. He has charisma and has drive and all of the other things ..true but i think Steve Reeves was a man of better integrity and really was more a mans man for me. I remember i spoke to George Helmer about him ( on the phone) always spoke very highly of Steve Reeves. Arnold is a very caramatic figure and he has his place in history too.
-
Steve Reeves>shwartzineager
-
the oak won six olympias but 1980 remains controversial . his films are good but seldom great. . i wonder what he thinks of bodybuilding today . so different than his time.. . some people were inspired by him others found his grip on the sport too great and were turned off .

Everyone has their opinion. I guess that's why BB never became a Olympic Sport it's too objective although the Weider's tried to get it there. Great pics of him there Donny no doubt.

itīs funny because i am soon to be 47 and i grew up in the early(ish) Arnold Years and even as a kid you heard his name.. Arnold is really now "old School" .. just reflecting on past things..it really is sad when i hear of old Bodybuilders going away to the big Gym in the Sky.. you never knew them but did look at them as idols or role models. still new comes and progresses in itīs own way. regardless who was king itīs important to remember men like Steve Reeves and Jack lalanne.
-
He looks good , but way overrated .
Compared to who? the guys of today? compared to the guys he competed with he wasn't but I mean it's not really accurate to compare him to guys of today because of the advances in technology , training methods , nutrition , equipment , etc if he was born in 1980 he would still blow everyone away
His structure is exceedingly rare and I still haven't seen anyone who is 215lbs with a 29" waist at 6'1" and a 54" chest

True those two pretty pretty much responsible for getting things started, I'll add Vince Gironda and John Grimek.

In terms of what? physique? that can be argued but I can make a case for Reeves , in terms of success? Reeves was Arnold before Arnold , he won all the titles around before using bodybuilding as a stepping stone to Hollywood , at one time Reeves was the highest paid actor in Hollywood and Reeves left Hollywood and lived in his terms raised champion Morgan horses .
Like Donny touched on Reeves was a man of integrity , everyone of his contemporaries speak very highly of him , no stories of him knocking up the fat ugly maid :-\

Seems he was a quality guy. For me Arnold was the first bodybuilder I saw and I have a similar structure as him so as Donny saw Steve Reeves his first glimpse of a BB he became a Reeves fan. We need some more Reeves pics ND fire up the scanner. Hulkster may jump in with Ronnie pics soon since you posted.

lets also not forget the Cream of the UK...Mr Reg Park. Dorian and Ronnie are great Champions too just not my taste but between the two..Dorian.

What was phenomenal was he got himself so huge in JUST between 7-8 weeks of training, it was documented at World Gym. I think COACH actually saw him training there for this contest...
-
Steve Reeves was/is the best in my opinion. he had it all..looks and was very athletic although i believe John grimek was very good in hand balancing and won a contest because of this.

With Reeves you could look at a profile shot and get a straight edge...a ruler...and have it go from his nose to his chin unobstructed.. no simian-like prognathism....no pre-evolutionary mouth bulge getting in the way....plus aesthetics and natural genetics...
swartz.....?
If you were to size Steve Reeves up to say, the 80s or 90s size, you can tell, that he would have had a wide waist...
Steve is a great example that just a little bit of size can be just enough.

stupid point. that's about bullshit judging and politics.
i agree with you guys that Arnold is the "king" in terms of the person that brought bodybuilding into the light. guy had swagger before there was such a thing.
BUT, in terms of genetics for bodybuilding, flex wheeler was flawless.

Reeves, Schwarzenegger, Zane, Oliva. Done.

calves are more important than thighs in bodybuilding or were . certainly it was the case in the 1970,s . and more big thighs are for weightlifters IMO .
