Franco didn`t need to pose with fake plates....he was super strong.

^^
Wes, did you ever hear about what happened to his marriage, I remember he was married to a Dr. Anita Columbu and now he's supposedly "single" according to WIKIPEDIA.

I`m sure if you were around then and advised Franco on back training,that he wouldn`t have ended up with such pitiful back development!!

Hahaha exactly Wes, I can imagine it .....this monster comes up to him and says 'hey Franco let me give you a tip....dont worry I'm from the Internet.'

first thing i think when i see this pic is, he needs to lift his head up and stick is chest out.

Which is weird because, at that time, he had probably the best back of all time.

lol I think his way hits the lower back/lats harder.

Looks like he's rowing/showing off for the camera with 4x100 lb plates on T-bar in the second pic below.

Almost every Franco training pic on google is a deadlifting pic

Doing a barbell hack squat (found it on the Tight Tan slacks of Dezso Ban blog):
