From my FB page. Very similar. Structure, density, shape, everything. Who ya got?
Flex's lats were weak. His Teres Major and the way his lower lats stood out over his lower back (or how his lack of low back/lumbar/errector development stood out... a result of his detest for deadlifts), as well as his lower trap seperation created the illusion of wide, thick back.
That's an older pic of flex ('93 arnold I believe, maybe even the Olympia that year), so his shoulders weren't as swollen as they were 6 years later... so can't really compare phil's delts to flex's there. I don't care if they were site-injected, Flex's shoulders held oil very well, probably the best of anybody's (even groulx, in that era). However, phil's are still feathery and striated.
Phil's traps are developed top to bottom, flex only had "decent" development in the lower, mid back area... the traps near his neck and ears were thin. "Baby traps", nasser always called them.
leg's, i dunno... i'm not a fan of phil's legs. Flex had great shape to his quads, along with deeeeeep seperation up near his hips... and his hams, although always soft, had good sweep/hang. Glutes? flex had hard glutes 1 year in his life.. maybe a year and 6 months... when he won his pro card, and his first year in the ifbb. calves? well, they looked good in person, in the offseason, for a regular guy... but the lack of seperation, detail, or the ability to have a visible contraction es no bueno for bb comp's.
arms... i still think flex had the absolute best arms in the sport... shape, seperation, ect... always thought his triceps had perfect shape. you can't replicate that shape with site injections.. sure, you can enhance it a little, but you can't go from a mediocore tricep to a well shaped tricep with injections the way you can with biceps (or even shoulders... maybe).
...but phil is equally impressive in the arms. bi's, tri's, brach's, forearms, ect... feathery and seperated..... i think phil's lateral head is better than flex's (more like levrones), but i think flex's long head hang's better.
