Zane had a classic look, characterized by balance and symmetry and leanness. He really made the most of his structure. I think he used steroids, as all of the Arnold "era" champions did. But he obviously did so conservatively and intelligently. On the other hand, he lacked size.

Today. among too many, it's go for broke with respect to size. And no holds barred in using any and all chemical shortcuts to get there. And, yes, that does work, for a while. But you then pay the price - Palumboism, cancer, heart disease, etc. Anyone who thinks that is a worthwhile tradeoff needs psychiatric help, quite apart from the unbalanced and "pneumatic" look that characterizes the later Olympia contenders.

Post by: Lustral on July 01, 2014, 09:24:37 AM: I used to think Zane had a shitty physique by freaky size standards til I came around to the notion that bodybuilding shouldn't just be a freak show with bloated physiques.
