Title: Thierry PASTEL vs Lee PRIEST: Arms
Post by: Nether Animal on September 30, 2016, 03:09:44 PM
Pound for pound, Pastel beats him IMO.

Looks like a mini Flex Wheeler 2nd pic.


of course, Lee was basically natural this early in his career.

Gaspari was a sort of Branch Warren back in the day, ripped glutes, no arms, narrow.

No separation, 16" arms, his back was one dimensional, he was blocky looking.  2nd to Haney in the Mr O?... really?  I wonder what drugs those judges were on back then.  Benfatto, Pastel, Paris, Samir, Benaziza were way better than Gaspari.

His conditioning was light years better than anyone else.  Once those with better structures were able to match it, he was done.   But at his best his was ripped and balanced, and had phenomenal lower development.

Gaspari is killing Pastel in the nuclear arms race there. Best arms in the biz plus a heck of a nice guy and the owner of a very successful supplement company and married to a classy wife.

Pastel was incredible, had great state presence too. If he'd been 5.10 he'd have been Mr Olympia

His training was unique too!

Still looks great in his fifties

Judging must have been horrible back then as well. No way that was a 4th place physique.

i think guys like Pastel, they have the same amount of muscle as a 5'10 guy would have, but it is huge on a 5'4 guy?

See, I know the argument, and totally respect the way these guys look on stage solo posing.  But I remember the shock - and it was shock - I felt when I was at a pro show and first Porter Cottrell and then David Dearth walked past up close, then 2 minutes later Pastel.  It was like they kept getting shorter and shorter.  I had to follow Pastel round a little bit (no homo) because I couldn't believe how short he was!  :o  I mean, I wouldn't have even put him at 5'4" - he seemed closer to 5' dead to me.  And his waist must have been something stupid like 25" too...
