The reason that Dorian had better shoulders than Arnold

[Royalty]

Dorian trained heavier

[oldtimer1]

That picture of Dorian looking amazing pre contest loses to the contest picture of Arnold. Yes, Arnold trained with volume and Yates with one set to failure after non taxing warm up sets. If you train with volume you are forced to use lighter weights.

[IroNat]

Dorian outweighed Arnold by 50lbs while being 3+ inches shorter.

bigger shoulders are due to more use of androgens ie. test and tren than were used in the 70-80's

Arnold took enough D-ball to kill a horse

dbol is a weak androgen and it's a class 2 doesn't bind to the androgen receptor like test and tren do

Arnold just didn’t have great shoulder genetics...  and he trained his shoulders too lightly.

Yes- insulin, hgh, igf etc. had nothing to do with it, lol

Exactly.

That picture of Dorian looking amazing pre contest loses to the contest picture of Arnold. Yes, Arnold trained with volume and Yates with volume also after near taxing warm up sets. If you train with volume you use moderate to heavy weights.

Arnold was pounding D-Ball and he was shoulder pressing 50-60lb dumbbells.


It’ was simply too light. Especially for a guy who could bench over 400lbs

I think he's doing some variation of a lateral raise, not a shoulder press.

I`d much rather  look like  a prime Arnold.

[pamith]

Tbh Dorian had massive delts and lats but he never had the chest of Arnold, Arnold beat him in the chest department

Agreed brother!  I'd sooner look like prime Arnold, Reeves, Draper or Zane than Dorian or Ronnie or Haney.   It's not that Yates or the other two gentlemen are not great it's just that I have never had any desire to look like them.  But the others?  They are the ones I trained to emulate.  I pretty much failed but that doesn't matter.

or arms

the typical bb of nowadays, big back, legs, delts and bellies and crap arms and pecs

thier arms without the site enhancements they use would be even worse

Those guys  were popular when we were starting out so we gravitate towards them......plus they just plain old looked fucking better.........PERIOD!!   LOL   

Happy Holidays to you and yours my good friend.

Do modern BBs pin their pecs with oil too?

[Royalty]

(Pre-injury) Dorian’s arms, delts, and pecs were pretty well balanced in my opinion.
