A lot people today think that if they weigh more than Zane, they're better. Quality is a concept almost completely lost in modern bodybuilding.

In these pics he exhibits less than Mr O quality. Zane dieted harder and used more diuretics than his contemporaries, which is why he looked so good. Yes, he has nice aesthetics but he's no goddamn Shawn Ray.

That video was taken after he won the 1972 Nabba Universe in London, not the '72 Olympia.

I think his lines are really overrated. Good build of course and preferable to todays look but i don't get the hype.

he was not near his peak there zane is a lot fucking bigger then people give him credit for at his max. He would be able to compete in a modern national show at his max not win but wouldn't look like a fool.

when they always place zane against a modern in these comparison shots they always pic zane pix where he looks thin and the modern looks off season to make zane look like a twink or the modern to look like a drug abuser never fair comparisons.

No........he got fourth in his first Mr. Olympia contests here.....beaten by Arnold,Sergio,and Serge Nubret.

i agree but you also should look at today's pros when they were a lot younger and had just won their pro card.

ronnie coleman, jonnie jackson, branch warren, guys who today are shitted on because of their grotesque muscularity, had very aesthetic physiques when coming into fruition and beginning to come into their stride as a bodybuilder and earning a pro card


centopani for example looked amazing when he just won the nationals, same with a whole bunch of others


the appeal with zane is that in his day and age his shape and lack of grotesque size is what won the competition

nowadays you would be able to find plenty of juiced up amateur bodybuilders or just aesthetic gym rats who look almost as good or better than zane

You are right. I made a mistake with the thread title. Sergio was the one filmed after the 1972 Mr. Olympia and not Frank. Thanks. Here is Frank at the Mr. Universe in 1972.

looks really good but thats the start of the transformation of his known look,1969 he had look that was common then smoother appearance less detail,,by 72 i guess he started diet experimenting with water depleting drugs,thyroid med,his late seventies look pissed on this look tenfold.great build either way.

Yeah, i think he found the right balance with his experimentation, he also gained more muscle maturity by the end of the decade.

So what's Branch or Jay?

Zane looked awesome.  Who would even want to weigh 250 at 5'6?  Oh wait, sorry dude.

You see people that look like this at any club?
