Why don't guns have 35 plates anymore? My gym has 45, 25, 10, 5, and 2 1/2.

casey was an underated bodybuilder
people forget he took nearly 9 years off before he returned to the ifbb because he was working for nautilus
many though the should have won the 1982 olympia
-
Casey didn't have a mr olympia physique for me, I think he looked better as teen than he did later in..
Brutal on the other hand could have won it...
-
local what do you think of mike mentzer
-
Bertil was ungodly strong. Had shit form on many exercises, but no denying the guys power...
-
I remember Bertil staying at a friends house back in the day in Columbus for a show. Bertil was there with his girlfriend and got into an argument and started to slap her around. Guess he had a pretty bad temper. I wasn't surprised about him killing his GF and her mom.

I like mentzer, easily on par with Colombo/dickinyourson/samir in the late 70's early 80's

local gotta agree with you , mike was my favorite bb from that era he had a hell of a look and was a talented writer, its a shame he let the
1980 olympia drive him crazy, he was joes favorite and could have stayed writing and editing for joe and making a good living for years
-
We should all write letters to betil

I love the 35's, especially on T-bar rows... better range of motion.

Mike over dieted and was too flat for the 1980 Mr O. The pics prove this. His chest looked like a pancake.
-
Yeah Mentzer was nowhere close, way too small for him.

Arnold clearly rated him, and his initial silhouette reminds me of Dillet...

He was known to abuse his wife as well. This from the mouth Rick Wayne.

Mike was much better than his brother ray and Casey as he had the wide squared off shoulders and chest and his hips were narrower than them both i.e. his aesthetics were much better than theirs
-
Big thick arms & chest on Bertil
Back was very lacking
And alway looked lost / Wondering what to do when he walks out to pose.
Looked crazy good as at in pics I've seen at 16/17 !!
-
bertil as a human being is a piece of shit nothing to admire about him.
-
Discusted... Lol true story I remember when he did that Bertil stayed in Akron with a friend of mine Dale Finn.ok and Joe cereono as going to kick Bertils was after he beat on his girlfriend. I'm sure I know u if you remember that.. Man that had to be in the late 80's

Yeah, he's not given that any time at all to settle in, has he? Just goes to show even at that level, insecurity sets in. I mean his shoulder girdle was always narrower than a lot of people (a bit like someone else we talk about on here ;)), but did we care?
I haven't gone through the rest of this thread yet, but there's a famous b&w photo of Bertil half kneeling, with his arms held straight down, and I SWEAR that for years the image of his tricep in that particular shot was what I thought of when the reps got tough! LOL ;D
-
Funny, I was going to mention Roelly in my comment about triceps above, but didn't. Then I went looking for that shot I mentioned. But then I found this, and my goodness! Doesn't it demonstrate that difference in conditioning we all talk about? The modern day 'glazed donut' effect?... (and as I've said on here before, I'm a fan of Winklaar, so no hate)
