drugs, more people in the 'sport' and more emphasis on legs (although a lot of pros leg training is totally lazy ass training)

reason is the massive gh and insulina doses,, they  grow everything ,, or should i say they blow up! blow up is the word..they blow up everything,, blow it up and make sure the bodyfat between skin and muscle is low....

back then in the 70s there was no usage of insulina ....and gh was vry experiemental not even remotly close to 20 iu a day lol ,, today fellas dont even train unless a good stack of hgh and insulina is in the blood,, im really talkin here 15+ iu gh and LOTS of insulina ,, i cant put here numbers becuase it can really harm an 18 year old who jus tstarted training 2 months ago,,it can harm anyone to be honest make many insulina dependent and add to kidney problems after prolonged usage

ok gh15 i can tell ur american hahahah...... i love the broken english though...... i admire the effort you put in to write badly ........however its nothing really to do with the increase of drugs and how potent the drugs have become........its to do with the fine tuning of bodybuilding......guys have realised that more balance has to be achieved in order to get the nod from the judges......its that simple..........all muscle grows from drug use.......its up to the individual to stimulate each muscle equally and in proportion to the other muscle groups = simple!




monstercalves approved hahah!


ps....... stop writing in broken english .......its wasting you're time and your students.....just be real....


nobody knows nor can prove who you are !!!!!!

Like I say, his legs were never huge. He did achieve quite good wheels for a time, but they were never huge.

Eight reps with 315 on front squat and he is on gas and Mr. Olympia?! What a flake. Plus, he looks small (for him) in this video.

The only people that need bigger legs than Arnold is national level BB. Those big as legs are so non functional for most activities in life.

How about the competitive powerlifter who builds them to immense proportions from all the heavy lifting? It's the reverse of bodybuilding training: the size is a by-product.

Legs should be proportionate, not disgustingly oversized.  For example, if your chest is 57", your thighs should each measure 28.5".  These fat ass, muscularly obese dung beetles of today are so overdone it is retarded.  Their ass is so huge they probably have schmoes wipe their butt for them after they take a dump. The reasons being,  one - for the money and two - because they can't reach around their fat butts and huge guts to do it themselves.

Ideally the neck, arms and calves should all measure the same and as I said, the sum of both thigh measurements should equal the chest measurement. As for the waist, todays piles of shit have wastes.

Drugs. Guys are 40-60lbs heavier and leaner in contest shape now, all that weight has to go somewhere. Big bodybuilders were #200-210 in conestest shape back in the 70's. Very tall ones maybe 10-20 heavier than that.

Who the hell would want legs bigger than Arnold in those pics?

Being able to walk and run is a good thing. Upper body should always be a bit bigger than legs.

nice shape and conditioning, but despite the flattering lighting and shadows, let's be real here. his legs were tiny compared to ronnie coleman

When I started lifting weights around 81-82 you almost never saw anyone training legs in the gym. There were lots of bbers walking around the gym with muscular upper bodies and lagging legs.
