Was Coleman wider than Heath?

[affeman]

I guess in terms of sheer clavicuar width, Ronnie might have been even narrower than Heath. Wonder why noone has broght that up yet?

I think Ronnie was MUCH wider...





In my opinion, while I would have never aimed to have Ronnie's body (not that I could have even attained anything close to it), he had the most amount of quality muscle out of any bodybuilder EVER. He is definitely the best Mr. Olympia of all time. You line them all up during their prime and Ronnie smokes them all without contest.

In terms of width, let's not kid ourselves, he would have eclipsed Phil.





"1"

Comparison pics of physique at early stage is best for this. Ronnie was naturally very narrow, same as phil but obviously ronnie BECAME wider than phil.

Yes Phil was wider than Ronnie

Not sure if serious thread.

Affeman is a horrible troll.

There is vid of Phil and Ronnie sitting down during a seminar. And Ronnie was wider than Phil.

[Pet shop boys]

Both Coleman and Heath are piles of crap but in all fairness, Coleman was a bigger, wider pile.

Not too sure who would've won a NoseDown though...

And Arnold dusts 'em all.  Who in their right mind would want to look like something (Coleman) flies fantasize over?

Kai would win the nosedown hands down...

Please don't be one of those old guys that is always like, "Back when I was younger, everything was so much better." Old people like that are so damn annoying. No offense.   Next thing you will be saying is that the medical technology was so much more better and sophisticated when you were growing up.  

Clearly, a PRIME Ronnie Coleman is 100x better than any bodybuilder from the golden era. A prime Ronnie destroys a prime Arnold in terms of physique. I am not talking about when Ronnie became too big. I am talking about when he first won the Mr. Olympia and had a small waist and six-pack. Look at it objectively--do not be biased on nostalgia, i.e., holding onto the past.

Back before he got too big. This smokes Arnold any day of the week, especially when you compare Ronnies back to Arnolds back.

Bodybuilding is a highly subjective pastime and Coleman is subject to my standards and fails miserably.  If you like him, I have no problem with that.  I think he's a totally worthless, disgustingly distended and over built mound of crap.  Some people might think the same of Arnold.  Not a problem.

Coleman sucks.  I put Reeves, Park, Zane, Nubret and more than a few others above him.  I have standards and Coleman cannot meet them.  His zealousness in pursuit of being a great big fatazz are what dictated his current, worsening condition and I maintain that he deserves it.

Coleman's fame, such as it was, is fleeting.  His stupidity however is immortal.

But youre letting how he is acting now interfering with how you rate him objectively, i.e., referring to his worsening condition, his medical conditions, and his quest for fame, and his so-called "stupidity." The problem is that even if there was a new bodybuilder who met your standards, you would still knock them because they aren't from the 70's. I think I could make this assumption, i.e., youre die-hard quest to hold onto the past.

Regarding Ronnie, I am talking about how he looked 15-20 years ago. Nothing more, nothing less. Purely based on his physique.

He actually looks like an old school bodybuilder in this picture.



Cant get a waist smaller than that

Nope.  I  have never considered him anything other than average.  Except for his IQ.  He should be glad that breathing and the like are involuntary actions elsewise he would never have made it past exiting the womb.  He is that dumb.

Like I said, it bothers me not if you think his physique is great.

Well, it doesn't bother me that you don't think his physique is NOT great. I never said it bothers you.

But last I checked, this is a bodybuilding board where we discussing bodybuilding and bodybuilders, correct? Is this not a discussion? lol I thought that was the point of a forum, to engage in discussion about a particular topic?  Isn't that what we were doing? Unless I missed something. No one was talking about hurt feelings or being bothered.

My feelings are not  hurt and I don't think I inferred as much.  By the word "bothers" (or any variant thereof)  I meant to assert the old adage,  "to each their own". 

Coleman is the poster turd for the stereotypical muscle bound moron.  He is, quite frankly, stupid.  By some accounts he is a degreed individual as well as a duly appointed officer of the law.  That doesn't excuse his blatant disdain for law (i.e., painfully obvious use of controlled substances) and his having a degree from a genuine college speaks volumes about the "Peter Principal" in universities.  His outright disrespect for his supposed faith also disgusts me. 

In short, I find Coleman a piece of shit on two legs.  And his physique is, in my eyes, without merit.

To each their own.

That is fine. Granted, I still think old school Coleman beats most golden era bodybuilders.

If you think Coleman looks like shit here, then I assume you think Nubret also looks like shit. Nubret is bigger here, but both have that small waist and flat stomach.
