Arnold had some amazing biceps. I have never seen any other pro's out there with as much fullness and peak as Arnold's biceps.
-
Robby Robinson?
Albert Beckles?
My bad I meant Robby! Thanks
And Beckles definetly deserves to be on that list!

lee priest

Hey if what are we talking about here, biceps or complete arm development? On complete arms, is there any doubt? Lee Priest! Simple as that. Forearms, triceps, biceps, he's not touched. Lee probably doesnt even have to train them 3 weeks out.

Lee has the best overall arms, but Arnold had him on biceps. Lee's arms however are the best considering overall arm development!
-
Phil Heath? Guys he's been in two shows (won both which is impressive) and we're saying he's that far up there in history of arms? Hell no. Coleman, Flex Wheeler, Arnold, Paul Dillet, Kevin Levrone, and then ahead of all them Lee Priest
-
What about Larry Scott?
Oh your forgot Gregg "exloding bi" V. ::)

Flex was underrated when he was competing. He had some amazing arms!

Too stubby and lacking peak to be top-5. Coleman's arms are just as big but with much better lines.
Schwarzenegger's on the list but as far as best-ever, he can't compete with Coleman either.
Sergio should also be on there-like Schwarzenegger his arms were flawed though, in his case a lack of separation and defo.
-
My God guys I seem to have forgot a king of arms.. Sergio Oliva How stupid of me! Also Flex was Awesome so here's how it looks now:
1.Arnold
2.Sergio
3.Robbi
4.Coleman
5.Flex
6.Heath
Now thats better. :)
-
That order's very debatable-the more recent guys have an advantage. Ron has better balance and defo than either Schwarzenegger or Oliva. Sergio's up there on size, but not top-5 because of a lack of definition and separation.
Top 10 would also include Vince Taylor, Szkalak, Scott & possibly DeMayo & Rick Wayne.

lance dreher is a honorable mention

Ronnie at his pre-gut best had the best overall ever, in my opinion.
Its worth noting that in my opinion, you cannot have a really great pair of arms without having a really great pair of delts.
The delts complete the overall picture and add tremendous shape to the overall arms.
others on the list:
arnold
robby
flex-pre-synthol
Priest
there are many, many others worth mentioning.
-
synthol ::)

The great Arnold NEVER hit a side tricep shot (well almost never) and for good reason, his tris were not that full or shredded and his formarms were not awesome. The bis, well they were awesome, but overall his arms are NOT in the top 5 all time.

Rick Wayne supposedly had 21" hams at 195 pounds.

Lee Preist's forearms give him the edge over everyone else..

But the stumpiness of his arms makes them less appealing.

Rick Wayne's arms for certain. Danny's look good here and I love this picture of Sergio

No shit....well I did mentioned his pre and after synthol stages.So I posted pics from both.
You dont even need to look at his arms to know that,check the face and teeth.Flex face changed alot with the GH.He looks very diffrent from the Flex who won the NPC and Im not talking about getting older diffrent.
Furthermore GH probably distended his jaw and made him get braces.
-

Agree with you 100 % - I don't think Eddie has any Synthol or implants. That post of mine claiming synthol was just a little (funny) tribute to Lucius Fox. And again, I say, Eddie should be in the top 5 list due to having outstanding Biceps, Triceps AND Forearms ala Lee Priest.

He's in the offseason in the last 2 pics and so, his arms aren't at their most shredded (and when they are, they are vascular and way more freakier)
-
I don't understand.
Why hasn't yates been mentioned yet? ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
-
Yates is on the list, just ahead of Chris Dickerson & Mike Katz. :D

Marko Savolainen...
-
yes, Marko for sure
-
Marko Savolainen...
He definetly has yates on biceps but what about triceps. Any side tri shots of him? Plus he has "beckles" forearms like ronnie so i guess yates overall has better arms.
Am i on the right track here or completely missing the point.
-
Marko Savolainen...
one of the most underated bodybuilder sof all time

No best arm thread is complete without this man. Awesome show stopping peak, sinew busting striations, incredible seperation and vascularity.
This is whats its about lads

Yes but then he got a heart attack so.. its unlikely anyone will mention him again.

He looks like a dried vagina.

In case that first shot didnt convince. I'm sick of this talk about his assymmetry and torn biceps. I can't see anything wrong.

Case closed. Complete arm development.

Never knew that, lol. I only saw his ads a couple of times back in the 90s and it mentioned 20". Of course, back then, I had no idea that the mags weren't exactly the gospel of truth.

I know, it's weird. I do remember the ads in FLEX and M&F that always said "The first man to build 20" arms". Groink has a point.
