Zane had good lines, but was outmassed by nearly everyone he stood next to

You're correct but if given a list of bodies people would like to strive for Zane would more than likely win followed by Arnold.

They got bigger. But they didn't get better.

And not just the swimmers - bodybuilders too

Lean, mean, pussy-wrecking machine.

[NarcissisticDeity]

A work of art

[Big Freak]

he fat

[flagadajones]

he obviously didnt like training legs or chest.

Im pretty sure he used very little steroids and trained almost naturally, you can tell his physique is just a pushed to the limits natural body with some juice added in the mix.

lol, no, actually zane used quite a bit, hence his nickname 'the chemist'. he was a huge fan of the thyroid hormone though, and i think he may not have eaten enough to grow big while using it.

Didn't Arnold get all his "nutrition" info off Zane?

Labrada was called "chemist" as well

you know too much

you must remain silent

[Figo]

Zane gave the appearance of being small, but put him next to Bannout, Platz, Dickerson, Mentzer (his contemporaries), and he had more width than them all, invariably he was also taller.
Whilst he appears to be a swimmer, go stand next to him at his prime, and you will notice the thickness in the pecs, and find your own legs to be dwarfed.
All the pics of Arnold & Zane in street clothes, Zane isnt exactly looking much smaller than Arnold.

[Mars]

i like when they still look like normal people at least facially, just like arnold did. today they all look so swollen and unhealthy and shows its all drugs.

It's the GH and insulin that is fucking everyone's looks up. Back then they took massive amounts of steroids, too, but the difference between then and now is GH and insulin. They make everything grow, not just the muscles you want to. It's internal muscles that contribute to thickness you don't want, making your gut huge, etc... The bones also grow, making your face look "mutant."
