FROM IRONAGE:
"Frank Zane (1984), Markus Ruhl (2001)
The ultimate in aesthetics versus the ultimate in mass. At 5'9" Frank Zane weighed in the neighborhood of 190-195 lbs. in top shape. At 5'11" Markus Ruhl weighs 275-280 lbs., a difference of some 85 lbs. or more than 40 additional pounds. This means that Ruhl hass more than one-third additional bodymass per inch of height (138%) than Zane! Who would you rather look like?"
PERSONALLY......RHUL, IN A SPLIT SECOND.
-
It's a no brainer - Zane.
Bodybuilding isn't about being blocky with a GH gut. At some point the sport lost it's way.
-
how about both :o
-
Erm thats a tough one.
I'm going to say Zane. But I'd be hitting the sauce to right wrongs of swimmerdom pretty quickly.
-
Anyone have pics of Zane in his heyday, in off-season condition?
I bet he looked unreal.
-
id defo go frank cuz the guy looks like he can live a normal life. id just try n add just a tad more upper body mass ... just a tad!
-
Zane...chics don't like those overgrown apes like Ruhl.
-
Exactly.. ruhl looks fun for a day but he also looks as if he will never make it to old age.
-
Zane with about 10 to 15 more pounds of muscle :)
-
Zane with about 10 to 15 more pounds of muscle :)
That would make him Bob Paris ;D!!
-
I'd rather look like me. ;D
-
Out of those two I like Zane and that would be the body to have nowadays if you want to make serious money in Hollywood or just about anywhere. Ruhl if you want the attention and the odd looks. I had the semi Zane look in high school and about a year out. The I had the semi Ruhl look at 6'1" 300 lbs. Now I have the super-duper bloated Ruhl look at 400++. So I have had them all and to tell you the truth I like my semi Ruhl look at 300 as did everyone lese.
-
You're comparing two polar opposites with no compromise......I have to go with Zane.
-
From those two choices....Zane...
-
Now I have the super-duper bloated Ruhl look at 400++.
Are you serious?? ???
-
Hmmmm, let us see, one is a 3 time Mr O (77, 78, 79), the other is a big freak, that never won a pro show...tough choice, but I take Zane.
Ok I was tough on Markus, and he is a large muscular man in the midst of modern pro bodybuilding.
If you thinks freaks are good for our sport , look at the TV time in the last ten years...?????

I'm taking Zane. Ruhl's physique is not pleasing to my eyes

The "semi look" comments were pretty funny and I get ya, but it was a bit of a chuckle ;)
For me, I have been thinking of going back to Zane and dropping body wt. At a tad under 200, I could run easier , felt better and could compete often, now I feel and look like a bloated sac of whale poop.
-
Are you serious?? ???
VERY!
-
VERY!
You weigh 400 lbs??? ???
-
You weigh 400 lbs??? ???
YEP and some

Good Lord...you look big but I didn't realize you were that big.
-
Those pics I am 300. I gained a huge amount of weight after my accident in 13 months.
-
I'd rather look like this dude than, Zane or Ruhl !
I've seen him with some seriously fine women..
-

don't mean to pry...but what kind of accident were ya in?just curious.
-
FOR A GUY THAT IS COMPARED TO THE SIZE OF A AIRCRAFT CARRIER MARKUS HAS A GREAT PHYSIQUE
-
He came to my contest but can't remeber his name. Something Markey I think. I also thnk he works for Beverly INternational but sure about that either
-
Yeah, His name Is " Scott Markey" He trains at my gym In San Diego
In person He looks bigger than those pics. I think he's about 5'9 or so 220ish. My girlfriend thinks he has the perfect physique.
( And she likes a bodybuilders physique ) Just not a Markus Ruhl type.
-
like i said....RRRRUUUHHLLLL.. that guy above is just too small for me..id wanna be bigger :D
-
Ruhl Is a beast that's for sure ! He just doesn't have pleasing,
pretty physique ! And that "Mug" of his, well.....
-
i'd rather look like a man than a woman
-
RUHL BECAUSE HARDLY ANYBODY REMEMBERS THE SMALLER MORE SYMMETRICAL GUY'S
IT'S ALWAYS THE GUYS WHO DARED TO BE DIFFERENT
-
Me Too. But Markus is just to nasty. Hell, no girl would ever go for that look. Ronnie looks like a male model in comparison.
-
i'd rather look like a man than a woman
You think Zane looks like a woman?
What sort of chicks you been hangin' around? ???
-
Yes Franky is a disgrace for bodybuilding.
-
Zane.

Yeah, nobody remembers 3 time Mr. Olympia Frank Zane. ::)
-

Are you sure it isn't you who thinks he has the "perfect physique" and not your girlfriend?

That guy looks gay for some reason :-\
-
I like the early Zane.

Great point ;D

Great point ;D
Scott's not gay. His girlfriend at that time was Denise Rignon I think.
I always thinks it funny how some gay people when they see a good looking guy always accuse them of being gay. They are hoping to hear yes and go into denial if it is a no

I didn't say he was gay, I said he looked gay. Really gay :'(

zane
-
Personally I take Bob Paris' physique over anyone's!
Disclaimer: Not in a gay way!
-
i love how they use a shitty picture of ruhl ::)
zane....for a juice-using professional bodybuilder, he was really small. i mean he hardly looks any different size wise than me, just with more cuts and better calves. put clothes on him and you could hardly tell he works out, not good for a juiced up pro mr olympia.

When you say juice....you have to keep in mind the types and amounts people were using in Zane's era. Ruhl has GH and Slin-not mention much higher doses and more readily available products.....

If i remember correctly, onlyme was bitten by a brown recluse spider while hiking, and nearly lost his leg/life.
today he is still recovering, and is in a wheelchair.
this is why shawn ray feels justified in calling him 'fat' and 'lazy'.
-
Ruhl, period.

you remember it correctly
-
Zane! i wud like to look like Marcus for a day just so i cud go around scareing ppl! but when the novelity wore off i'd rather look like a man than a Ruhl (i think he deserves his own catagory)
-
Yeah, I can just Imagine what the fools that think Ruhl is a good looking physique, must look like themselves. It tells you allot ! Because the other guys with good looking faces and great bodies get beautiful women and tons of magazine covers, O yeah they must be gay. It's called " Jealousy " All you wannabe Ruhl guys keep spanking It. That's all you will ever have. Ruhl's physique Sucks and his face is hideous. Must be a great life to be a big lump of ugly muscle and bodyfat ( He's never ripped ! ) And what a sight he is 300 days a year
( Offseason ). Keep telling yourself you would want to look like that.
Lonely and Fat !!! Losers !!!!
-
have u seen some of the current women?
I don't pay attention to female bodybuilders. :P
Zane may of been smaller than his peers but he wasn't that small.
-
who the hell cares what women want? personality is what counts, anyway. RUUUUUUHHHHHHLLLLLL!!!!!
-
Anything that is better than this one.

to his credit, he is wearing a house of pain shirt, so he is hardcore.

Shit I didn't know it was that bad.

I look better than both those guys. Markus Rhul has nothing on me.

Well part right. I am not in a wheel chair. The first 6 months after I was but I was unable to walk only crawl. I went out of the house maybe 5 times right after I got bit. I am still recovering but a 1000 times better than just 2 years ago. I will be at the Olympia 160 pounds lighter than my top weight I was at. I have about 80 left and 4 months.
This is me on Thursday at the gym. I shaved my head partly. Finished shaving it today

-
Right on, onlyme...I'm glad to see you're back at the gym. You've got the right idea, my friend.
Enjoy staying strong!

Thanks, everytime I see your name I think of my old friend Don Muraco. This ain't you is it Don.

Zane.
-
Easy choice, Ruhl.
-
And for what reason is that ????
-
Zane all day long. With Zane's structure you can just up the dosage a little and look great. With Ruhl you will always look like a blocky turd now matter how big you are. Anyone who picks Ruhl is a cockbiting asslicker and should be punched in the face

Fuck you too. ;D

Zane :)
-
f**k you too. ;D
Yeah, I was in a GREAT mood when I wrote that
-
Zane is way too heavy for my taste so Ruhl is out of the question.
