That's a dumb thing to say. Flex outweighed Arnold by 40 lbs or more at about 5 % lower body fat too, along with more pleasing aesthetics, more striations, more x frame.. Etc etc


naa naaa and more naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Flex always arrived at Gold's Venice in TOP style. For sure better way than anybody else - including Arnold.

Flex looked like if he owned not only the place but people inside also.

At 0:04 baby!                     8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

I've been looking for a copy of the 98 Arnold Classic for years...Do you mind posting it or at least the Flex parts?

Isn't it strange that there are no videos anywhere on the 98 Arnold, I was there in person & have to say that was the craziest combination of symetry size & definition Iv'e ever seen!!!

Yep...I've contact EVERY bodybuilding video distributor over the last 10 years including when I was at the Olympia expo this year and no one has ever seen it or had it...
I don't know what that's all about, especially since it was Wheeler at his best.

if by small you mean totally dried out and exhibiting nothing but pure dense muscle it's not a bad thing

Flex was never the same after 1993 , his rookie year he looked his best at the Ironman , Arnold

It was done on UPN, both the 98 and 99 and I think the 2000 were aired on UPN, remixed and called Arnold Rock n roll or something like that. Just as there is only the 19 sec video of Flex for the 1993 Arnold, what gives? Is there some sort of copyright issue, where there are virtually no video of the 90s and early 2000s Arnold Classic videos that can be released

Flex was way too narrow and had way too much of a shitty chest to compete with Arnold.

Arnold had his faults but Flex's were more pronounced.

And it was said, that if he showed up in this condition, that he would have won Mr. O in 1998. Do you agree?

Actually he said if he showed at the Olympia in 98 like he did at the 1998 Arnold he would have won and I think either showing he would have beaten Ronnie 1998 especially with gyno

quote Flex magazine Jan 1999

When Ronnie is 100% , Flex has to be 100% to prevail. On October 10 , 1998 , Flex wasn't and Ronnie was.

Flex Wheeler

It's true I didn't quite duplicate my condition at the Arnold Schwarzenegger Classic. if I'd been able to do that , I would have won EASILY !!

Flex at the 98 Ironman, 2 weeks before the Arnold Classic...incredible condition...he was even better at the Arnold but the pics don't show it...When I get the video I'll post only that portion of the show.

BTW no one was beating Ronald that year...Even if Flex was 100% Ronnie was 25 lbs larger with better condition...98 Ronnie destroys anything Flex ever brought to the stage he took away Flex's greatest asset, his back and back then Ronald's symmetry was very similar to Flex....Ronnie was flex with better arms, back, width but funky abs and shitty calves, Ronnie FTW easily...

Holy shit, your recollection of shit flex said in 1993 is honestly disturbing, I recommend you go outside, maybe talk to someone

there are schmoes and then there are SCHMOES...wow


My recollection was almost spot on asshole. I got the tape out and here is
what he said as measurements...
22 1/2 arms
legs -31 inch
waist -27 1/2
chest -right around 56 inches
Arnold says -the measurements your saying right now are world record measurements, right?

There's no doubt flex was bigger ... more defined.

But if I had seen a picture of this:



vs this:



When I was young and impressionable, I would probably never have picked up a barbell.

Arnold still looks human ... Then you add in the factor that Arnold was a real strength athlete (deadlifted over 700lbs, etc) ... He gets my vote!


Flex is full of oil and tiny in height.  Arnold has mass and class with the necessary height to carry it well.  Arnold all the way.  Including against such tubs of oil as Ronnie Coleslaw and Dorian Wastes. ;D

Flex took Ronnie to the limit that year and he was off never mind 100% that bitch-tits would be the deciding factor for a Flex win

and better arms? you mean better biceps because Flex's tris kill Ronnies , back width? Ronnie was always wider than Flex

Flex at his best just outclasses Ronnie 1998
