Bodybuilders of that era would simply go to the doctor who gave them their steroids and picked up some amphetamines or got some ephedrine at the store....that's pretty much it.
^^
Actually you're 100% right on this, PRESCRIPTION amphetamines were very commonly available (DEXEDRINE)... this made dieting a breeze, for most people it shut off 50% of your hunger anyways,
and made you sweat like hell in the gym while working out!!

Exactly! he retired  in 1975 the top names back then were Oliva,Ferrigno,Katz ,Waller etc all over 240 lbs...the following years  Arnold got off the sauce, his skin was really lose for a 30 year old guy 76,77,78, specially 1979,And don't forget,by 1980 the game had changed drastically, Zane,Robinso,Dickerson,Makawi,Mentzer etc were the ones dominating  "were ripped" and under 220 lbs... So by spring 1980 not only Arnold got lean but his skin was thinner than ever!!! with striations never before seen in his prime even the split chest...... I really doubt it was the same "Formula" he applied 10 years early the early 70's.




He may not have been the best in the world that year but this is his best look to me - Still doubt he hit each muscle 3 times a week year round

I just did an interview with Roger Walker from Australia for the Bodybuilding Legends Show and he said Arnold should have placed 8th.

I used to watch the movie twins and used to imagine what it would be like to walk around with arnolds physique for a day. and be able to score a chick like that in the movie.  I was a youngster back then and to me that was the ideal physique.  I think arnold was the only physique i genuinely wanted to have.

Roger Walker is a funny guy.  Does he still have that ridiculous jew-fro hairstyle?

That's a shame.  By the way, he was great in that movie Carlito's Way.
