Platz.

Saw him at Workd Gym in Columbus back in 1990 the weekend of the Arnold. He was training with Jim Quinn. I watched him do a set of donkey calf raises with the entire stack and the set took forever. Not just 10-20 reps, but like 50, then he did like 6 drop sets, then partials...the set must have took like 10 mintues!

Ronnie is a very stpid man. He could train just like Shawn Flex Cederic Freeman Glas Robinsson Dexter Dilett Kai Phil and all the other smart dudes! And yet become Mr O and have a functional body at 50+

Wrong.

The only reason that Ronnie rose to the top was because he was movin dat heavy ass weight.

Levrone & Flex would've been trading the Olympia back and forth if Ronnie took it easy in the gym

Levrone & Wheeler trained heavy

But Ronnie was doing squats and deadlifts with 700LB-800LB, barbell rows with 500LB. Only Ronnie was doing that stuff (Francois did it too for a while)

Platz is known for his lower body---his squatting. Ronnie just went all out with everything, except arms. He apparently did that when he was younger.

I remember a seminar from Ronnie where someone was asking him about how to get biceps peaks, and he said he can't really give any tipps, as he always had huge biceps. Never did much more than a couple of sets preacher curls and hammer curls.

might get laughed at here but I am going to say Lee Haney because he trained twice a day year round CONSISTENTLY and did not destroy his body even after competing and managed to take home 8 Olympias

Arnold as well because when he was not in the gym he was building what would later become an empire none of them have been able to match, especially since most did and do fuck all between workouts/competitions
