I thought Bill Pearl clearly won that contest. Sergio wasn't at his best that day. If he looked like the picture here he would have won.

yea man im thinking the same thing,i wanna hear more about what exercises sergio did,how he trained,his personallity ect,the more info the better

Honestly, he would come into the gym joking and laughing, do a few light sets of one arm triceps pushdowns with cables, then lay down on the incline bench and sleep. I was only there 3 days...

I read from an article that Jeff Everson write that he used a lot of half and three quarter reps with plenty of volume.

Yep, I have heard that from several sources. For example on bench press he would do 3-4 reps going only half way up (which makes the exercise much harder) and then a full rep then some more half reps etc.

One of his old training partners (who posted on here for a short while maybe 6-8 years ago) said that Sergio was a hard trainer but what he did depended very much  on how he felt on a day to day basis and if there where any nice ladies at the gym or not. He could do a short 40min workout one day not doing much (other than trying to get laid) and then next day a 2 hour brutal superset workout.

i remember bill grant telling me that also about sergio doing alot of partials, bill said arnold started adding it into his workout also after arnold went to chicago and trained with sergio.bill said he and arnold would start back off with chins,but not the regular way,arnold would put a bench under the chin bar and he and bill would take turns starting their sets from the top position and going only HALF WAY DOWN and then back up again. after 5 sets of that arnold and bill would start their chins from the hanging position and only go HALF WAY UP and then back DOWN to the full stretch position. after 5 sets that way they would do full complete sets of chins for 5 sets,bill said they used additional weight hanging from a dip belt when they did the half chins.bill said arnold picked that up from sergio if i remember correctly

Ok, that's funny but c'mon.
Why is it anytime a classic, vintage BB pic is posted, some douche chimes in with how gay it looks?wtf

I swear , if I didn't know better I'd think these getbiggers were total closet cases...oh, wait a min ::)


Actually this is what happens when you have children that interject not knowing the true meaning of bodybuilding and knowing nothing about it to begin with exept for what the read in a " bodybuilding" magazine. It was back then when they actually trained. Today, well...

yea man kal,s bis where enormous,he shoulda placed better but after his fallout with weider that was it for him

That was a WABBA contest, not an IFBB contest, so it wouldn't have a made a difference in regards to Kal. He was huge but too smooth for that contest. I think he took 8th place.

Lee priest is more muscular but also more stocky with shorter legs. Sergio looked more dramatic with better, streamlined proportions. Bigger is not always better.

I AGREE, but in this VICTORY POSE a huge sweeping back/lats make the pose work,lee preist didnt have that great back flow in his VICTORY POSE IMO.SERGIO'S lats almost start in his waist where as LEES start really high cause of his high insertions

a proportionally smaller waist on Sergio also helps.

When you have too much muscle and you are short, it makes you look even shorter and squatter.
