Would be funny as he'll if his voice was that high pitched.

Those arms are ridiculous.

~UN_$ung~ · « **Reply #9 on:** April 28, 2010, 03:39:19 PM »

absolutely freaky in person...veins running down his arm like garden hoses

The first time I seen him was in 97 and I never seen anyone that freaky big before. Seen him again a few years later at a couple of State shows and he was even bigger (of course).

I've said it before, saw him prepping for the 03 Olympia, after that saw him off and on leading up to the 04 Olympia, that was his peak in size I believe. Nobody comes close.

I saw him in March 99 when he came to Sydney for the Australasians (he was also on the footy show bench pressing Sterlo, i wish that was on youtube). He was light years ahead of anything i saw that day.

He really isn't even that big

I mean, on the computer screen his shoulder are only like 2 inches wide.

It always amazed me how huge Ronnie appeared in his videos, espcially the one that showed him working as a cop but then i saw these pics from 2005 (so they're not recent "retired' shots) and thought WTF, arms might look swole but he definitely doesn't look like the huge Ronnie we saw elsewhere

I have worked with every single pro since 1988. I have had in Oz, Haney, Yates, Flex, Kevin, Nasser, Vince, Shawn, etc, etc, etc.

Plus attended about 8 Olympias and 6 Arnolds, MCed over 100 shows and interviewed everyone in the industry. I have seen them train, compete, guest pose and ado photo and DVD shoots. I am sure you get the picture.

Let me say this, Ronnie is by far the greatest ever, by a mile. No one else comes close, I don't think anyone will for a very long time. Size, shape, condition and freak factor, Ronnie at his best owns every category.

I know this gets debated over and over but in many cases the people debating have not seen these guys live. Let me tell you all straight, there is Ronnie then daylight.

I would guess that Ronnie is/was huge (no homo) but what about those pics? I couldn't believe it was Ronnie in his prime (2005). Most pros look huge up close but there he is next to normal gym rats.

Tony Doherty · « **Reply #17 on:** April 28, 2010, 04:41:19 PM »

Of course, some pics.....

Tony doherty

that ronnie on the road GMV video was great, though would be good if it was longer and had more from his seminar

BIG ACH · « **Reply #20 on:** April 28, 2010, 05:45:00 PM »

I saw him twice once in 04 at the Arnold Expo and once last summer! Looked fucking HUGE both times!
