What's the difference?

Arnold would be using a lot more than Coleman if he was competing in this day.

At least you could make the argument that Arnold somewhat made something of himself.

99% of the people in that pic are either broke, homeless, living a life of sexual deviancy, or dead.

Wrong that was taken at the 2nd Street Santa Monica location. It was taken around 1979 or 1980. The Gym moved from there to the current location on Hampon Drive in Venice during the late summer of 1980 for the filming of Hart to Hart (the Studio's helped pay for the move).

Dickerson won the Olympia in 1982.

I trained at that Santa Monica location when I moved out here in 1980 and was there through the move to Hampton drive. Those were fun times.
