How come there's no pro today that can match these arms?
« on: February 05, 2009, 10:06:44 PM »
I mean the drug use is much higher then it was back then, yet his arms would make some pro's arms today look small?

That is the best pic you could find of Oliva?  Do the man some justice, fuckwit.

This guy had crazy genetics, but he never got shredded.  His arms look very puffy in every shot I've seen of him.

Yea I gotta agree his arms have a puffy look. If he was a modern BB would people make accusations of synthol because his arms are so smooth?

something looks fishy about this photo, maybe it's the shirt that makes his arms appear bigger or photoshop, but something doesn't look right.

Too many machines and cables instead of good core dumbbell / barbell excersizes.

Proof in pics that he did that and that it made a difference?  ::)

Nah, the shape was good it was a lack of separation and refinement in a lot of pics, and the fact that there aren't a lot of pics out there taken when he was in peak shape. Most out there are well after or before that.

I don't see any different, it's just the angle. Keep in mind he was in this 40s in that shot.

Yes, he did tear the tricep on his left arm.

But his muscle bellies are so long it hardly makes a difference.
He didn't have it re-attached or anything as far as I know.
