[Thespritz0]

[anabolichalo]

[King Shizzo]

Because he is not wider than Heath.

while they have sacrificed proportions and aesthetics for size since the early 90's, present pros have way more muscle mass than oldy days guys

eh, it's called progress.

if pros looked like that, then skinny twigs with SHIT genetics and SHIT common sense for GROWING would feel A LOT better about themselves.

everytime I hear "I wish pros would look more attainable".. blah blah blah... it makes me think  what they're really saying "I can't grow for shit, so instead of me making progress, I wish others would get worse "

Sorry, but that is a stupid post.

If it looks inspirational and attainable, people will attempt to try and achieve it. That is how you safeguard the future of the sport. It doesn't matter if it is unattainable. It looks like it is and that is what is important.

If it just looks 'awesome' then people will pay to look but nobody will really participate since it is obvious that it is unattainable.

Everyone looks at the freaks at the zoo but nobody seriously wants to become one. That is why bodybuilding is killing itself with its lack of direction and its catering to a stupid fan base.

[timfogarty]

we do have pros that look like the top bodybuilders of the 60s.  but they don't pose or flex.  they come out on stage, put their hand on their hip, do a quarter turn, do another quarter turn, then walk off stage.  We call it IFBB Men's Pro Physique.  they seem to be quite the draw, outselling many pro bodybuilding events

[Papper]

Because it has become okay to have ghastly proportions and medioker condition if it means you can come in a little bigger. And a gut has been embraced as a natural thing in bodybuilding to the point it looks strange if you don't have it.

People say Yates ushered in the guts but I'd say Ronnie Coleman helped to make it standard even more.

[erics]

People say Yates ushered in the guts...

No, it was the judges who did that.

[doison]

He certainly is beautiful.  We should all complain that today's contest winners don't look as appealing.  Many of the modern physiques aren't even worth staring at long enough to find the areas that you don't even want your own body to resemble.
