We're often told that Frank Zane had a flawless physique. He was lean, symmetrical...but was he flawless?
In his time, I think Robinson was just as aesthetic. Serge Nubret was a bit earlier but to me he had a better build.
Later guys like Paris, Labrada...they're who I think of when hear terms like balance and symmetry.
I'd even say Danny Padilla was a better bodybuilder.
I don't mean to disrespect Zane at all, but in terms of his perfect physique, was it just that there weren't that many other people who looked like that back in his day that made him stand out?
Here he is. He looks great, but, I can't put my finger on what it is that doesn't 'work' in terms of his build. Is this flawless?

Zane won 3 Olympias....... the others you`re mentioning in your post won a combined total of ZERO.
It`s a very subjective sport, plus Weider was as crooked as my hunchback brother.
