Arnold’s arms were bicep dominant. Of that era, I’d go with Robbie having the most complete arms:

I think Arnold has a few body parts that would stand up and more than hold it's own on the Olympia stage like his calves, biceps, and chest. But I think it was his chest that just blew everybody away. Even just barely out of his teens his pecs were already world class and beat everyone else at the time. And they got even better later in his career.

Pecs.

Overall he had a structure that just flowed together.

At his prime he had the best of everything.

C’mon! Everyone knows his calves were implants.  ;D

Another moron who thinks that they even had implants like that in those days. Where are they now? Did Arnold have another surgery to have them removed since they are way smaller now? Just because you could never develop your calves doesn't mean one of the greatest and genetically gifted bber ever couldn't.

Though I disagree, he didn't have Arnold's insane peak, I think Rick was very underrated. Over all I thought he was better, just by a hair, and more balanced than Franco. I suspect racism and Franco's clout (all from Arnold) prevented Wayne from going further.

IMHO, he was the best writer bbing mags ever had. I just cracked up when he was writing about Arnold's 1980 win he described Franco as "Arnold's Sardinian sidekick."

That guy knew bbing inside and out and had a way with words.

I have to agree about the Arnie biceps comparison but Rick had a nice balance between bi and tri ratio.

At any rate after reading on of his or Dick Tylers articles.I`d be in my baement gym training my nuts off like O`Hearn  LOL ;D

Rick was 5' 7"
Arnold's long limbs are much harder to fill and much more impressive.
