He looks considerably aged since his Pumping Iron days

I haven´t seen that one before, he was clearly the best in 1980.

His calf implants looked like shit. Toothpick quads. Great upper body.

Those quads look abysmal in the 1980 pic - still looked pretty cut up though.

Yeah, lets bring back the glory days! No more slin/G.H./synthol and all that other crap. We have to stop supporting all these cheaters nowadays. We need more positive role models that look "good." Like Arnold and Serge ect... back in the day. The pumping Iron line up, for example. We have the power. Only we can change the direction of this once "great sport"
