thanks for the info man.....there is definatly a big difference in 1983 nationals, compared to even the olympia a few years before
something had to be responsible for the thinner skin, tighter, fuller muscles, and overall grainer look then they had than just a few years before.......say in 1975 when pumping iron was filmed, arnold and louie and co. were not smaller per se.....but they definatly were not as lean,,,,,,dieuretics too maybe?
