Frank Zane or Lee Haney ?

[Wiggs]

Ahh yes that would make for interesting viewing.
Those that do actually train hard & have muscle maturity & density
Vs those that are all Drugs.

I take that back, Kai would still have muscle.  I forgot about his natural days.  He'd still look like shit though. He'd go from 260 to a soft 220 in a year.

I tend to think Kai would look reasonable.
I'd like to see Phil Heath & Ramy without gear.

Jeez....
A very different looking Kia.
From what year was that photo.

[thegamechanger]

not sure but it said he was 18 on the link where i got it so that mustve been 20-25 years ago

[Wiggs]

You can't go from a high weight to a much lower weight and expect to look the same.  It doesn't work that way.  The way the skin is on the muscle would look different. His waist grew and wouldn't look the same 40 lbs lighter.  He'd have muscle but he wouldn't look like that.

Understandable, we all change with that much age.

We don't see the Likes of Tony Pearson & his insane vacuum
On stage nowadays.

Though he probably weighed around the 190/200lb mark.
Not the extra 30/40lb of extra guts like today.

[Pet shop boys]

I don't know if is  "attainable" like people likes to call it but the ideal it is

(I'm not his biggest fan) but I've seen the tons of people he has inspired to train and try to avoid being "permabulkers"


WoooSSHHHHHHH

[The Grim Lifter]

That drug testing hit Lee Haney hard.
I forgot just how much.
Still all had great physiques.

Flex Mag reported that Lee Haney had the cleanest Urine out of all the tests and the tests also showed he had been clean for the longest time.

Apparantly those tests could tell when someone had taken their last shot of gear and exactly what it was.

Vic B,

What do you think of that pic of Frank Zane

THE PR

[Pet shop boys]

I wonder what Phil Heath has to say about Frank's physique given that Frank was known as mr. Aesthetic and more popular than he ever will .




WoooSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

He probably hates him, as his Shoulders are too Wide.
And He hasn't got a Bloated Pregnant looking waist.

[Howard]

Haney didn't talk shit. Wasn't addicted to painkillers. He took breaks from juice. Married his high school sweetheart. Consistent. Honerable. Humble. Good father.


I guess people consider that boring.

Bingo!

His rival was Gaspari who never had the genetic talent to deal with a gifted legend like Haney.
Lee won 8 straight with minimal controversy and his personal life is solid and stable.
Plus, Lee was a gentleman and class act.

Had he gotten busy with some ripe citrus , sold his used trunks, or plowed a tranny, he might generate more threads. Hmmm, if nothing else, perhaps some gym selfies with duck faces might have generated hype?

[Dr Dutch]

I really do not recall which author said it...."Frank Zane looked like a POW, Lee Haney looked like a refridgerator with veins"........

[Howard]

nice everyday walking around physique ez to maintain.

There are plenty of  5'9" lean guys working out in gyms, around 185-195 lbs.
NONE look anything like Zane.
Zane had this unique classic line to his physique and damn near perfect muscle shape.

Zane and Reeves most overrated bodybuilders ever, they looked great but far from perfect .

[BIG AL MCKECHNIE]

Zane and Reeves most overrated bodybuilders ever, they looked great but far from perfect .

They both appeal to gay men.
The whole genre of Hercules / Gladiator films of the 50's and 60's were gay porn. Not that there's anything wrong with that but it was so blatant they spoofed  it in Airplane. This is why Reeves is so popular.

[cephissus]

Haney is basically as good as it gets, IMO.  After him, guys got bigger but not really any better.

You could say he brought the bodybuilding to its end.

[cephissus]

Zane and Reeves most overrated bodybuilders ever, they looked great but far from perfect .

Absolutely.

[TTfit]

Kai was natty for the longest time. Truly great genetics.

When he was genuine natty most thought he was on gear. I believe he was a genetic freak.

He might be one of my favorite bodybuilders if not for his personality. And the hair. I absolutely hate the hair.

Did he have intercourse with fruit when he was natty ? Only with organic fruit I hope.....

[Tennisballz]

did he not have a penis back then?

what a fuckin' load of bullshit, and you actually believe that??? Pouahahaha, oh man... So he just cheated less then, is that it?

And Flex mag ALWAYS tells it as it is huh???

And Kai with his fuckin' trunks pulled up like some queer. Just ban the guy already, dude is the WORST thing for the image that is pretty much beyond repair now anyways, so whatever I guess....

[forillagorilla]

1. Sergio Oliva
2. Flex Wheeler
3. Lee Preist
4.Dorian Yates
5. Dennis Wolf - Although IMO this spot could be filled by a helluva lotta others.

If that is your top 5 list of all time BB - you really have no business ever posting again. You must have a really incredible physique 

[Pet shop boys]

Good Observation . Haney, for being an 8x Mr. Olympia, rarely gets discussed here. Very strange.

We need a getbigger to do some investigating to find out the reason why.

This.
