and no, this isnt photshopped.
-
Orville lookes awesome!
-
If his lats inserted a bit lower he would own both Ronnie and The Construction Worker in that pose.
-
The 'freakiest' and the 'best' front latspreads are not necessarily the same thing.
-

haha so true.
-
great pose by burke

By construction worker you mean Arnold?
-
Orville had the best width in the lat spread ever..
-
damn talk about wide load.

that ones got to go to ruhl,the pic from the 02 NOC,if anyones got it
-
Brutal Dried Out Lips!

Brutal Dried Out Lips!

best front lats ever are either dorian in the bnw pics or that one 2002 NOC pic of Ruhl.

mostly because it's photoshopped.

That Dorian pic so photoshopped it is not even funny. ::) It has been disproven by no less than ND himself....the world's biggest Dorian lover. Haney kills everyone in that pose as he has the tiniest waist. I think for shear impressiveness of the upper body, Brian Buchanon had an awesome back and a 27 inch waist. Anybody got a shot.
-
Definately DOrian Yates. He is MR BACK. ROnnie can match him/beat him maybe from the rear, but I think YAtes is the Champ of the Front lat spread, dont you guys agree?

I know , there was no need to photoshop it to begin with !!

no, just better than Dorian's :)
In all seriousness, no, I don't think that is the best front lat spread ever.
But it does display details that other pros who have great lats are missing: great chest and great quads.
Perfect examples are Dorian and Orville: great lats, not much else.
In order to have a great lat spread, you have to have more than just lats.

You could only dream Coleman's was as good as Yates , I love how with all the supposed advanatges Coleman has he doesn't look anywhere near as good as Dorian in that pose ( or hell most poses ) Mike Quinn said at the 1991 Mr Olympia that Haney beat everyone in the front latspread for years and along came Dorian who beat him as his own pose !! much like Cutler is now doing to Ronnie ;)

just out of curiosity i edited out about 10% of these two photos and put them up against each other. logically if, in an entire pose, only one muscle is better than the other guy while he loses on the remaining 90%, he loses the pose. so weigh your opinions here.

you are killing me bro..how can you even start to compare 2 bodybuilders when they dont stand next to eachother?? you cant!!! pics are illusions UNLESS the 2 guys stand next to eachother in the same pic! then they both have same conditions. in general with out any doubt ron takes dorian on every muscle beside calf shape! shape!!!! not size.

Indeed but this is getbig so very expected................ . rather then argue who looks best can't we all agree they both look great in those pics...... wait that could never happen here ::)

I saw this dude a few years back at the Mr'"O" expo here in Vegas...I've been involed in bodybuilding a long time and have seen a lot of these guys in person but I've never seen arms that big...the dude is unreal...but goes to show that it takes more then big arms to win the shows

well my point was mostly that i think way too many people here only look at the muscle the pose is named after, forgetting that if that were the case then hamstrings, traps, calves, and shoulders wouldn't matter because no poses "focus" on those muscles.
so i took two guys doing front lat poses and edited out the lats, curious as to what people would say when they're forced to compare everything else.

Are you saying that more than triceps matter in the side triceps pose? ;D
-
I like Dorian's look because of his incredibly thick lats.

naw. not really. i mean come on, ronnie's triceps are so flat, this pose looks terrible.

Superlow insertions and enviable thickness :o

;D

Mr Intense - do you have that other shot of Columbo from the waist up do a rear lat spread (b&w) that was in the Weider Principles of Bodybuilding book?
That shot I thought was perhaps the best rear lat spread I had ever seen until I saw some of Yates and Coleman.
-
naw. not really. i mean come on, ronnie's triceps are so flat, this pose looks terrible.
yeah, he looks terrible ??? ::)
if that is terrible then every BB should stop working out now
-
I think I see a little bitch tit action going on

This is a pretty good shot of him

Funny, "Dorian's arms beat Ronnie's" doesn't sound quite so ridiculous anymore.
-

at least show a shot where Ronnie is flexing..

Remember all the times ND has aruged that even though a bodybuilder might have inferior upper back, arms, lower back, glutes and hams, when compared to Ronnie, he would lose the back double biceps pose because of the calves?!? 8)
Again, I think Dorian has the best looking lats when viewed from the front in a front lat spread. But the rest of entire pose (chest, arms, delts, legs) SUCKS.
-
Hulkster,
Do you think Ronnie can take Giant Robot in a no-holds-barred cage match?
-
Ronnie would smoke that Robot-ass 8)
-
The Gargantuas?
Brown one, man, one spiteful sonofabitch!

well i couldn't find one where he was. my point there was that if you don't focus solely on his unflexed triceps i defy you to find a single bodybuilder who looks better in that pose. look at his goddamn legs for example, or how far his chest sticks out beyond his stomach.
people look at the single aspects too much. just the lats in a front lat, just the triceps in a side tricep. every pose is full body and you have to look at it like that.
-
You're dodging the question, friend.

I never said they would lose because if inferior calves , where the F did you get that nonsense ? its you who think Ronnie is superior to everyone in every bodypart and its nonsense , I said using your dumb logic he has the best parts therefore he looks the best in all the poses and he doesn't , its you who insists that seeing Ronnie has the better parts then all of Dorian's are automatically inferior and sucks lol its nonsense logic , you can go on and on about how many better parts Ronnie has but in no way does he look better in the front latspread not even close , Dorian's shot looks like a puzzle with parts that all fit together to create one pic picture and Ronnie's looks like a collection of impressive parts that were scrambled together , Ronnie's impressive parts actually hurt his mandatory poses ontop of refusing to learn how to accutrately pose .
-
Better
Agreed!
-
Anyone remember Brian Bucannon from England? Pretty awesome front lat-spread & Mo-Mo Bennazza(?) was pretty good too. In fact,Dorian put his pix on his fridge after Mo-Mo beat him at the Night of Champions to remind him of how he looked. My picks for best front-lat spread
1-Dorian
2-Haney
3-Mo Mo
4-Bucannon
5-Dennis James

You guys are blind, Ronnie is by far the best bodybuilder out there. The best one to ever have lived period. Heīs got eight Mr.O wins and still has more in him. Noone can ever match that record. And offcourse he looks better than all others, heīs like 300 pounds, 40 pounds heavier than the next guy. I couldīnt care less about his gut, abs are for gay people anyway.

Here he is owning Flex

-
Yeah that sure is some female muscle Ruhls got ::)
That ownage of Flex in that last shot makes me laugh each and every time. His legs together measure the size of Ruhls right calf. Flex says "miiiiaaauuuu" and Ruhls answers "Roooooooooorrrrrrrraaaaa aaaaarrrgghhh". ;D
-
;D
Who edited his lats out?
-
Not many can match this
do not post the photoshopped rear lat spread of yates.
-
Definately DOrian Yates. He is MR BACK. ROnnie can match him/beat him maybe from the rear, but I think YAtes is the Champ of the Front lat spread, dont you guys agree?
It's science. Yates had the best front lat spread in the history of BBing. He looked like he had two beach balls under his arm-pits. Never seen that amount of back beef since.
-
Of course that pic is of Flex's last Mr O appearance and he did that show natural. 8th place finish. I'd love to see what that lump of shit ( Ruhl ) looks like with no drugs.
-
dorian's lats look even bigger because his arms are small for his frame.
seriously. It helps with the effect.

No the ' small ' arms theory would be negated by your wide waist theory , if his lats only appear wide because his arms are small , then his lats would also appear small due to his wide waist , so you're back to square one .
-
straight up width was never ronnie's strong suit. pretty much everyone can beat him on pure width. his shoulders aren't very wide structurally and his thickness leaves him with his muscles looking very compacted which destroys his front lat spread. there's not a lot of room to see lats under his arms. it actually makes a few of his poses awkward.

Great obsevation , when he does his most muscular his massive arms make his delts look small and narrow , this is exactly why he looks odd in a lot of mandatory poses .

do not post the photoshopped rear lat spread of yates.
I had that saved on my computer from some time back from this site and to tell you the truth I didn't know that it was shopped...someone posted the the unshopped version a couple posts back...not too much of a differants.
-
it is diff enough and let keep it real.

nice shot of tp in cammies showin the lats along with the vac. show a single pro today that can pull that off and have it look good. lee haney and shawn ray are two recent pros that come to mind.
