Sick picture.  One of my favorite of Zane and seldom seen.  Many moons ago I scanned that picture out of a magazine and uploaded it to IronAge.  That could very well be my scan.

He was believe it or not 220-225 pounds around that time and YES, he could have easily carried a lot more on his frame and that pic (and others) are proof of it.

My understanding is that he was called "the chemist" but probably could not get any bigger despite the amount of drugs.  Those that can't get huge claim they want to go for a more aesthetic look.  BTW, I like the aesthetic look but I like honesty more.

Zane's incredible shape, balance and 3 time Olympia winning look is MORE genetic then massive size.
Zane dialed back on size goals by the mid 1970's when he realized he couldn't win with that strategy.
He became a legend by dialing in epic lines for his Olympia contests 1977-79

Why is it sick? Because he upped the dose and then wet his panties with fear because he probably had a side effect like maybe a zit so he lowered the dose? He still has 17 inch arms.

Poor Zane, he only won 3 Olympias. He could have upped the juice and bulked and oiled up to 300 lbs with BIG guns.
Ricky Piano is massive compared to Zane and has won how many major contests?
That's what I thought, thanks for playing.

    Some guys albeit having great lines, don't have the genes and health to hold big size.
 I believe that was Zanes case. He would be admired today, but would never won shows in todays mass game.

I'm no big Zane proponent and I think his later look was too light on the legs and he overdeveloped his obliques, it looked weird since he wasn't huge anywhere else.

I've always held my position that Elvis-hair Zane was indeed amazing though, and this pic is crazy nuts.

It was for his ability to get dry and lean consistently for a show, and he was formally a chemistry teacher.

Zane came in heavier his last couple of years, but I wasn't a big fan of this look. His obliques seem overdeveloped and very distracting. Certain parts look smallish as well

Zane in his own words never hit 210 in his life. He was a smooth 200 at his biggest according to himself.
Looked much bigger than 180 when at his best .  A bit like Dale Rupinger he must have hollow bones.

Zane was more impressive than Reg Park. Show me one pic where Park looks more impressive. Many go on about his amazing calves. Reeves had better calves. Park's calves were ok but just never wowed me. When Park was ripped he was a twink.

Accurate analyzing but it is just a case of personal preference ( no hulkster vs narsisdeltity ).
Last week I saw pumping iron again after years and years and it struck me
how fantastic lou en franco looked, so big and shredded, amazing. Lou could have bested Arnold, so could franco. Jep I said it! 8)

A "Bodybuilder" with no abs, and no tight waist, is a joke! Who would want to look like that? Just short ugly fuckers, who could never look good in real life! Oh, and queers!

And to those who claimed Zane was just a stick man or a swimmer. That's a  220-225 pound Zane right there folks. He clearly had the potential to be a large dude, but CHOSE not to go down that route. I believe it was 1974.

Yup and he wrote an article in Muscle and Fitness somewhere between 1982 and 1984 saying he HAD hit 220 or 225, but felt that his best weight was between 180 and 200. He weighed 200 (or slightly over) at the 1982 Mr. Olympia and then came in at 180 in 1983.
