"And if u read in one of my interviews … I said “Bodybuilding will stay the same unless we have another Arnold in the sport. A person who can market and represent Bodybuilding same as Arnold in the current era is needed. I think the Bodybuilding community is still under the blessings of what Arnold did in the 70s through to the 90's through his competing and making movies. Now we need another person to do the same for the 21st century”
Totally agree with this, Arnold did things that reached across the narrow span of just the cult followers of bodybuilding, he served as special Olympics International Weight Training Coach in 1979, and as Chair of the President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports in 1990. He was a true Champion, as was Lee Haney and most guys from those errors. I like Cutler and Coleman, but it just seems that it takes such a narrow focus to maintain the size of todays pros that it steals the heart of the sport away.
