I think he's Norwegian or something, they all look like this guy.

Could have something to do with not eating a real lunch, they only eat sammiches.

I want to add that they're more or less useless but I guess most of you already understood this looking at the original picture.

Norwegian women are hot though but that's about it.

Norwegians are filthy rich, because of all the oil and mackerel, and they hire poor Poles and Swedes with high debt-to-income-ratios to make their lunch sammiches.

Swedes can't afford to buy housing in their native country as it's crazy expensive and Polish people can't afford buying anything at all.

That's Elliot Darden of Jones/Nautilus fame, and long time writer for the exercise business. No that type of development isn't common, and training for it fell out of favor 30 + years ago. For some reason, he fell in love with rib box expansion training, and that was his claim to fame for many years.

It was some what common in the 1940's - 70's, but Darden's was an extreme case. It won't work for the old as the rib cartilage has hardened and lost much of its elastic ability at adapt. Also a lot of that training was really posture correcting, as it caused many to walk in a more upright position giving the illusion of a bigger rib cage due to opposing muscle strengthening.

One of you white fellas ( Can't remember if it was a European or American) here turned me onto smoked salmon, capers, cream cheese and some sort of bakery bread (can't remember which kind). One of the best combos I've ever eaten and I've eaten foods from around the world in their native countries. Yum, I might have a bong and a couple of those today.

Yep, common training was super setting high squats and pull overs.

Hold on... Was this the "look" the earlier bodybuilders were looking for by doing all those dumbbell pullovers?  :o
The "Iron warriors" from days past wanted "the total package" and were prepared to "do battle" to achieve said "look".

Very inspirational.
