Sad thing is you are posing mild pics of Ray. Ab/thigh, front db, any relaxed pose he beats pretty much all today's field. Rets of poses he would be top 3 every year if not winner.

I really think the most elite physiques are in the wbff and maybe the IFBB mens physique. They're not in the open class of the IFBB.

This pic of Flex should somehow be made into an award and named the "Flex Wheeler Aesthetics Award". And given to the most aesthetic physique.

Wow Flex destroys him completely. This is the craziest comparison I've seen. Flex was unreal in 92/93. Probably one of the best ever if not the best.

That photo of Flex is incredible.

Team Big Ar-yan Bastards, notice how Wolfenstein appears to copy Adolf's thumb placement perfectly in the Roman Salute, Arnold needs to work on it he has been out of Deutschland too long.

Yes...comparing wbff muscle models and Ifbb mens physique boys to anything close to resembeling the epitome of bodybuilding. No disrespect to them, but they are not recreating the golden era and are not frank zane.

Rhoden & Warren are both 40+ years old. Their skin looks kinda old. Wolf's skin look old too. He is in his late 30's.

In the pics posted, Shawn was 30, and Flex was 26. Arnold was probably 27-28

Shawn Ray's posing was an excellent too. Todays line up is pathetic. Bulky but little quality. Overusage, wrong gear, they look like chemical experiments rather than bodybuilders

Post by: wes on September 24, 2015, 03:56:19 AM
Todays guys are just too damn heavy and not much bigger than the guys from the 90`s except for overblown quads and huge bellies.


No comparison.

And today's guys are retaining more fluid.

So guys today might weigh more; but they don't have more REAL muscle

I would imagine that is because people who are anti semetic are largely restricted to expressing their opinions in a fairly civilised manner, compared to the past.  Worst you get is a few amusing harsh nicknames for blacks or jews.. hardly anything to be too bothered about.

Small limbs and big trunks.  Today's pros have physiques that look like toddlers.  Not to mention this "grainy" look is shitty.  Glad I didn't tune in for any of the olympia.

no homo whatsoever (maybe 10%) but its frequent that ill come across one of the top WBFF guys or the bigger mens physique guys like Sadik that i stop and I'm like "damn thats what i wanna look like", the same way i say that when I'm watching Pumping Iron and see some of the classic physiques in there.  Thats the look i aspire towards.  Its rare that i have the same reaction to IFBB guys, exception being like Peter Molnar. not even sure if he's in the ifbb.  Guess i have a different opinion than you because i see a lot of Zane-ish physiques out there that are not on the IFBB bodybuilding stage.  However When was the last time we saw a sick vacuum shot on the ifbb stage?
