Looks like Serge Nubret


As a follow up....personally, I think the pics should be kept to 1990 and earlier...as soon as we hit the early-mid 90's...bodybuilding took a shit.  NOTHING should be posted of the likes of coleman, yates, cutler, etc.  Bunch of bloated messes....not taking away from them, but when compared to the guys of the 70's and 80's....no comparison.  I NEVER wanted to look anything like coleman or yates.  In fact, what did it for me was when I went to a bodybuilding show (one of the last ones I was at as a 'spectator') Cutler was there...and I saw how winded the fucker was just getting out of chair and walking up to stage and talking on podium....

I literally turned to my friend and said "what the fuck...is this really what bodybuilding is?"

vinny,mark,serge,franco.....

Seriously - look at how deeply etched Serge's abs are?!!  I'll bet he is like 55+ years in in this shot. None of the pros these days even try to get peeled like this - probably cause they can't with the boatload of shit they are taking. They probably don't even know how to diet.  I'm mean look @ that shit - he's just shredded. I took this pic from page 33 of this thread.

And let me add - great thread!!  Many thx to the thread starter - brings me back to the old days when we had just some of the best  - focused training days.
