You fucking idiot. forearms are either built from drugs or they exist because of bone structure.

Plus, forearms actually throw off the whole physique. Serge had and has perfect arms, top to bottom.

Plenty of naturals have big forearms. You're really embarassing yourself here.

well my mate has a history of competing at Squash, and as a result has insane forarms. Forarm muscle is still muscle not 'bone'!!!??

I am also tall with no forearms like yourself, but I can admit a poor forarm work ethic cos who cares about em anyway!! lol

Serge: "looks like I can take you"

Arnold: "Keep looking"

Not really. Some of the guys like Nubret & Mentzer it was clear he couldn't really say anything that would work against them.

He looks like shit. Go on and on about the achievements you're impressed with but be realistic he looks worse or the same as an average guy who'd never lifted.

I can tell he lifted weights, and he most certainly does not look worse than the average 60 yr old.

that really really bad pic of arnold was BEFORE T3. He looked great and big in T3 so THERE Y'ALL GO! As far as Serge... well Arnold was a lot smaller in 75. LOOK AT 74! BEAST!!! UNTOUCHABLE!!! (for that time)

donrhummy · « **Reply #33 on:** August 08, 2006, 07:19:53 AM »

Would Serge have won in '75 if that story hadn't happened (if it even did), who knows? But I believe these are the pics of what he looked like a few weeks before the alleged incident and he DOES look monstrous for Serge (yet, his waist is as small as ever).

Compare this to what he looked like in the contest and it's pretty impressive:

In this case Nubret is fooling himself. Arnold was bigger and had a better overall physqiue if you are comparing size, shape, and condition in various poses.

Nubret had a FANTASTIC physique but to say Arnold would not have beaten him is silly.

Yes he looks skinny in that pic.

buffbodz · « **Reply #38 on:** August 08, 2006, 08:16:26 AM »

Read Arnold's encyclopedia of bodybuilding. He has many forearm and wrist exercises. Try a few on off days. Muscles that don't get hit during the normal 4 split are screaming. I just call it scrambled eggs day. Abbs, forearms and wrists, maby some extra calf raises, all the major groups were already fried from the previous week. That's when wrist curls, forearm raises, bell ringers and allot of obscure exercises for advanced lifters. But my point, when all else is equal the better forearms and wrists could be the deciding factor.

HUGEPECS · « **Reply #39 on:** August 08, 2006, 08:59:47 AM »

Any recent pic of Nubret? I bet he looks better than Arnold now.

Why was Serge suspended??
In pumping iron they said “an unexpected entrée”

A few years back in MMI, Serge claimed that the Weiders spread a rumor about Serge appearing in a Gay porn film and they couldn't allow a gay man in their contest. I seem to remember something about Serge saying he ate candy and had an all out binge and then when the Weiders saw him again in not such good shape, they decided that Serge could compete after all.
I have no idea if it's legit or not, but I know that it seems far fetched!

shootfighter1 · « **Reply #43 on:** August 08, 2006, 11:39:35 AM »

Neither sergio or serge nubret could touch 1974 arnold. Arnold was clearly the best on stage in 1975. Perhaps serge could have been better if something happened the last 12 days but I doubt it would have been enough to beat arnold. Those pics above from 74 are amazing!
I'm sure the Weiders pulled some shots but arnold was the best between 73 and 75 without a question.

So the average person thinks that Arnie is too big in this pic. That is why BB will NEVER be mainstream!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You people who think this need to give it up.

In all fairness to arnold...those pics you see of him at the beach was right after open heart surgery and being hospitalized. Some idiot photographer took the pic and it was sensationalized. He was in great shape again a few months later. Even in the post hospital state near 60, you can see he has a big structure/wide shoulders, etc.

Serge had a fantastic physique and looked phenominal in his later years...something I hope we'll see continue with BBers from our era.

Haha, I'd love to see these big mouths on here post open heart surgery....I'd even love to see if they had a half way respectable physique right now. Lets make it get big rules, before you critique someone elses physique you have got to post pix of your self....until then simply say, good job or keep working, but leave the critique for the people that know what they are looking at...just an idea.

BB is not mainstream because they don't care.

I remember debating with some idiot in my gym years back, and he felt that Nubret should have beaten Arnold at the '75 Olympia w/no legs & no back in comparison to Arnold. If you remember the pump-up room scene in Pumping Iron, you see Nubret looking at Arnold & saying "No One Can Beat You". Arnold replied "Yeah--Good Looking".
