We havent had a charismatic Mr Olympia since Arnold

[The_One77]

No bodybuilder since arnold has been able to string a few sentences together. Dorian is better now after retirement, but Ronnie's charisma revolves around his catchphrases 'lightweight baby.' Brandon curry, Big ramy and minister lungfurd have less personality than a wet paper towel. They're impressive slabs of muscle, but when it comes to stringing words together, you'd have more luck getting a conversation out of a protein shaker.

Jay Cutler is alright now, but watching him back then was like watching paint dry in slow motion—except the paint had more personality.

He was the only one. Not like Larry Scott and Olivia were burning up the late night talk show circuit during their reigns either.

Haney had his own TV show and was a great representative of the sport.

[affeman]

Ronnie did surprisingly well on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno

Well spoken fella that was picked by Clinton as his council for physical fitness and nutrition.

Shocking we can't find a normal social butterfly type person who likes to lift weights, sleep, pump hormones and eat all day.

100%... imo haney was the best representative.. he was a bodybuilder, thats what he did.. wasnt trying to become an actor or anything else.. always liked his training vids.. shit looked like he was having a good time too!

Not many Pro-bodybuilders can be Actors and then Actionstars at that, and then move on to becoming Governor.


Only one close would be Jesse "The Body" Ventura who went from bodybuilding to Wrestling to movies (Running Man, Predator etc) and then Governor.

There has been some.  However, it always seems to be the non gym activities and partying that kept them from becoming elite.  Dearth (sp?  The Wild Child), Mike Quinn, Mike Christian, Melvin Anthony, Will Harris, etc..   Chris Comier is the only one that I can think of that was overly social and still achieved a decent amount of success.

Yeah but he endorsed Kamala Harris so he is small and useless to us.

Haney was great.

Jay and Ronnie were decent in their own ways.

Phil was a bit annoying but he knew how to talk to the media.

Dorian ended up being very well spoken after his career.

What about Dexter? He had glute control.

[oldtimer1]

Arnold set the bar.  Number one movie star for a long time. Two time California governor. Married American royalty.  Had a cool way of saying Chopper.  What do we have now?  They win then disappear from view for the year. Maybe a couple of youtubes that no one watches.

Also had a wife and children that turned out great.

[pamith]

What about Cutler and Heath?

[1Patrick]

Probably the only Champ that stayed with the same wife for lifetime
I can’t think of anyone else.
Cutler,Heath,Dorian,Arnold,Ronnie,Samir ,Flex Lewis, and list goes on and on they all changed partners.I remember Jose Raymond marrying almost 20 years younger bikini chick and then  they’ve  split . I knew from the start  it is not going to work.

Coleman as huge as was had a aww shucks likeness to him.he trained like a animal ,ate and drugged and probably loved it all until he fell apart.

True, but he's not dead yet.

Most accurate post on this thread!

[Pet shop boys]

Lee Haney was as charismatic as Arnold   

He did not have the support of Weider as Arnold did .

but the guy had his own tv show and always presented himself neat, approachable, mature ,humble and always with a smile.
