With so much talk about Ronnie Coleman and Phil Heath going on..let's switch gears. Many believe the art of bodybuilding has been lost. What's appealing about looking like 300 lbs of pumped up immobile drugs? So many get caught up in arm measurements and scale numbers

For me, I'm inspired by the beauty of symmetric lines and powerful posing. It's like creating a work of art

A nice illustration of the difference

Perfection.

Steve Reeves. Simply put, the most handsome well built man to have ever walked the earth. Aesthetics personified.

BUILT, I think a return to "aesthetics" was the principal reason why the NPC adopted Physique competitions.

And you may know as well as I that professional bodybuilding competitions will eventually return to the way competitors were looking during the time the abocve photos were taken.

There are many physique competitors leading the way but here are a couple whom you know personally and are exemplary... Sergi and Jaco both foreign nationals who compete outside of the NPC/IFBB as far as I am aware

Probably the most perfect any BB has ever looked. Arnold was in awe and honestly that show convinced me that Flex was the new Olympia to be... Obviously he decided to chase the size - but had he SLOWLY grown he could have been unstoppable. Slow is relative for these freaks - but still. Milos has a story about Flex getting contest shape - like from a SKINNY / Fat to shredded in 3 weeks!! Genetic freak

I think most of us would definitely agree, Rider.

SCOTT, A vast difference here but how would you compare Sergi (photo below) asthetically with Reeves?

And do you think Sergi should compete as a bodybuilder or a phsique contender?

I knew Reeves when he was a young kid and had the opproturnity to work with him a couple of times before he passed away.

A gread individual in all respects.

Hey stunt, quick question. Are you gay? Always just sort of thought so. Not a big deal.

It's said Physique was actually created in response to the WBFF after seeing the success and new market created. Sergi and Jaco are both amazing guys and making a lot of moves.

Some sick aesthetics today
