Another absolutely infallible magazine list ranking.
Arnold is no. 3.
Michael Phelps' no. 1.

Brad Pitt?

I do like Jackie Chan being on that list though. And Richard Simmons. That's awesome.

Holy fuck... Jay looks like an infant with bloating and rosacea. And Rühl looks, well, like you'd expect Rühl to look.

I'll be looking for imbasile and goodbum on the list.

Bruce Lee really should have been 1. There's no way Phelps could do anything close to what Lee could (or anyone for that matter), but Lee could certainly put in a good performance in swimming.

Is there a better bodybuilder "Out on the Town" look than the size M Under Armour tucked into the jeans?

tu_holmes · « **Reply #8 on:** October 21, 2012, 10:18:05 AM »

I'd say about 25% of the people on the list weren't "fit", they simply LOOKED fit.

Strong Men? Puh-Lease.

I didn't go far into it. That a baseball player makes it into the list, even at 98 shows it to be utter nonsense.

My biggest problem with this list was RICHARD SIMMONS being ranked better than Michael Jordan. Are you kidding me?

Lol, no way lee is Olympic caliber swimmer, just for fun lets say he could swim as fast as phelps he'd still lose because of phelps reach. All the Olympic swimmers that win are at least 6'2 I think phelps is 6'4

As for the list, fit for what? If michael phelps is #1, what does that make kobayashi? -100?

I'm saying that fitness is about health right?
Are you saying that they are healthy?

They have powerful physiques... that does not equate to fitness.

If you can't run a decent mile you're not fit. End of story. A 300lbs guy is not fit. Fitness is about health and you can't have health without a good cardio system. Most Olympia contenders can't run any distance without keeling over.

I was of course not implying he could come close to beating him. I merely meant, put Lee in a swimming pool and he'll swim a respectable time. Let Phelps try to do anything Lee could do and he'll fail completely. Lee is certainly the better allround athlete. No one came as close to mastering the human body as Lee did. At least not that we know of.

Ruhl and Cutler look like bloated pigs......and why does Ruhl find the need to wear a muscle shirt? He needs to be noticed that bad?

It's about being fit... not how someone "looks".

Richard Simmons has been doing fitness shit since before Jordan was born... The dude is fit... He just isn't some model.

I have no issue with that.
