Looks good for a retired IFBB guy. Nice to see he found some 1993 Hot Skins shorts for the recent photo shoot.

I was thinking it was from 1993,judging by the fact both arms still looked good.

What are those "calves" you speak of?

After extensive research and study it appears that "calves" did matter indeed in bodybuilding of the previous century.
Alas in this time "calves" are considered an arcane relic of the past and are not taken into consideration.

Should have used more drugs and trained with light weights, then he could have won 10 Olympias.

Either taking the piss or just plain dummies here, that's pre tear Yates. That would easily win the Olympia right now.

This is why it's a getbig rule that for every Dorian pic posted 3 Ronnie pics have to be posted.

Not to mention Ronnie looks like absolute dogshit in that pic... arms and quads overpower literally everything, no calves, horribly oversized turnip looking quads, chest and delts look small compared to his ridiculous arms, fucked up abdominal structure... the list goes on.

Plus he cant pose for shit, why he could never properly hit a lat spread is beyond me...

Which is why I always say parts don't count poses do , on paper Ronnie should have a better lat spread than Dorian but he doesn't because his parts don't work together to create the better pose.

I personally think that both these shots may be from the same 1995 photoshoot. He appears to be exactly the same size and notice the sock marks on the ankles.

Gary Shelmerdine in the background there.
Him and Dorian were in the same show (First Timers at Morecambe)
Both ended up being Pros sharing a stage again in 1991.

I disagree, I find his abs to be rather distracting.  I prefer the Yates version of that pose and I think Ronnie was far and above better than Yates.

I agree on the 'flow'but on just sheer mass and fullness ,vascularity ,its a sick pic,i think yates owned this pose.

He only did a couple of shows I think, maybe only the one.(British Grand prix 91)
He had a fantastic balanced physique, just didn't have that extra thats needed to be competitive as a pro.
His son competes now, he did a physique class (board shorts) and got placed down for being too muscular.
He has a superb physique and i think he would ruin it by stepping into bodybuilding.

From what I can recall l remember his waist being wide and this was prior to rewarding the gut look,so it hurt his appearance back then as it should now, great conditioning just not big enough and to wide in the waist
