THE best kept secret in bodybuilding

THE best kept secret in bodybuilding

[Papper]

Courtesy dictates that the great one should only be referred to as "The Gift".

I'm sorry..  "The gift"  

[the trainer]

Best bodybuilder of all time it does not get better than this.

C`mon Doc,that`s a mature 70`s porno stache if there ever was one.

She's kind of new on the scene.


Doesn't have the money for a boob-job so she's not gonna waste her time wearing a Bikini Top....

I don't think somebody like Zane should be considered best bodybuilder of all time simply because he has the physique that "normal" people relate to most.

If the question was what is the greatest male physique of all time then maybe guys like Zane could be near the top. But personally I believe a bodybuilder should carry more muscle mass than Zane while maintaining good conditioning, symmetry, balance etc. Doesn't need to be a mass monster either by the way.

I would say Lee Haney got the balance just right. A lot of mass but maintained a very symmetrical look with no bloated gut. Rounding out the top three would be Sir Ronnie Coleman (during his earlier years - around 1999) and as much as I hate to say it, Flex Wheeler (synthol aside, has there ever been a better responder to drugs than this guy)?

Without being the massive size of today's men,
Bigger than zane but still a Hugely Impressive Physique.
Hard to fault. Great pics.

Fantastic.

Too bad he always came in slightly smooth and watery after that.  Haney was another problem. 

[TheShape.]

Samir always looked great.

Mr Ruhl and Mr Dillet comes to mind. (In terms of response)

Yep absolutely, both of those guys, Dillett especially, had an insane response to drugs. I don't think there is anybody who looks more different on and off than Dillett.

`83 Samir

Samir st the standard for back development in 83!

[The Ugly]

Samir st the standard for back development in 83!

Back was mostly an afterthought then, like legs in the 70s. Don't you think? Franco being the exception, then later Samir, Haney, Benaziza, Munzer, etc. made it a bigger deal.
