even tho zane is at the end of his era he looks pretty wicked still on conditioning and shape.one of the best..
Zane had a classic look, characterized by balance and symmetry and leanness. He really made the most of his structure. I think he used steroids, as all of the Arnold "era" champions did. But he obviously did so conservatively and intelligently. On the other hand, he lacked size.
Today. among too many, it's go for broke with respect to size. And no holds barred in using any and all chemical shortcuts to get there. And, yes, that does work, for a while. But you then pay the price - Palumboism, cancer, heart disease, etc. Anyone who thinks that is a worthwhile tradeoff needs psychiatric help, quite apart from the unbalanced and "pneumatic" look that characterizes the later Olympia contenders.
