**Trianon** · 04-11-2002, 06:42 AM

from the inflated look of those bi's I'd say -synthol. And look at the rest of his body...

Yup I agree!

**Naturally Anabolic** · 04-11-2002, 02:05 PM

*pulls up to a jiffy lube* i'll take a top off of the synthetic blend please...

**broncojosh** · 04-11-2002, 02:08 PM

They look oil filled...but if they aren't...DAMN!!!!

**Dr. Derek** · 04-11-2002, 08:14 PM

he was one of the first people to use synthol~and I thought he was from Germany~ I have watched him in numerous strongman comps and he never places higher than fourth. he really looks alot stronger than he is. I'm sure he is good friends with Chris Clarke the inovative synthol discovererererererererer.

**Deadend** · 04-11-2002, 09:42 PM

Ya'll see that pic of him holding the car up......well AC Slater called and he wants his pants back

**$uperman** · 04-11-2002, 10:42 PM

i remember reading about him a few years back... as BIGbry was saying he can crush a full soda can w/ his bare hands. not many people can do that. he never did do very well in his strongman feats... just shows that you much more than big ass arms for all around power

An Interview with Manfred Hoeberl

Bill: So, your home town, Graz... what's going on there? You were born there and Arnold Schwarzenegger was also born there. Is there something in the water?
Manfred: Well, probably in the air or in the water there must be something. The genes which we got from our mothers and fathers that are down there in Graz... it must be something secret there, definitely.

**kamikaze** · 04-11-2002, 11:21 PM

An Interview with Manfred Hoeberl#2

Bill: Did you plan on getting your arms as big as they are, or did it just kind of happen when you were training?

Manfred: It actually just happened throughout the course of my workout... out of my life. You cannot plan on having something incredibly big because you never know how your genetics will work. So, when I started first I had no idea how far I could go in the sport at all. And that I had such big arms in our sport was actually a disadvantage. So, I never planned to have them that big, however I sooner or later realized that having the biggest arms in the world is a great marketing tool.

An Interview with Manfred Hoeberl#3

Bill: How long did you compete before you had your car accident?

Manfred: Since 1991. Well, actually, that's the first time I competed in the World championships. It was actually since 1989.

Bill: And when exactly was the car accident? Was that in 1995?
Manfred: Yes.

Bill: And how serious was that? How long did it take you to recover?

Manfred: It was about nine months in the hospital. That was pretty serious, yeah. But I'm fully recovered. I did some strength feats again. The last year I did the team championships, and I did some other events and I tore, unfortunately, my bicep. That's when I decided to quit it. I mean, the strength was back and I was doing good with my pelvis and my hips and my left leg that was paralyzed. But I don't know, when it just starts to come off like that and wear and tear comes in, I think one had to make a decision.

**Lardyass** · 04-13-2002, 07:03 PM

I remember watching him in the worlds strongest man before he had the crash, he was a strong fucker then. His arms were massive also back then and this is at least five years ago!

**z67enforcer** · 06-06-2002, 09:49 PM

I doubt it's synthol.....
just freakish genetics. Synthol isn't going to get you the biggest arms in the world... only genetics.
He's a strong-man, not a bodybuilder

**Farmer** · 06-06-2002, 10:20 PM

mmm yummy synthol can I have some? rofl

**Farmer** · 06-06-2002, 10:21 PM

try it again...wtf how comes its a file and isn't open for everyone to see????

**Latts** · 06-06-2002, 10:22 PM

That definately looks like syntol, there is not sepertation or definition in his bis and tris, who cares if he is a strong man. He looks oiled up.

My god please tell me this guy is joking....yeah greg valentino's about as natural when it comes to synthol as a man made lake...come on man get real

**vector** · 06-07-2002, 08:50 AM

These manfred's pics were taken a long time ago and I don't think synthol was used at that time. He may have taken escilene actually. But I saw strentgh contests with this man and his arms aren't fake.

**Darkknight442** · 06-07-2002, 09:42 AM

Damn man those arms arre freakishly huge. I think you are right htough that is more gentetics then anyhting. Does anyone know if h still holds the record for biggest arms or is there someone else out there??? I thought i was the only one to watch the Strongest man competitions. those are freakn great.

**Darkknight442** · 06-07-2002, 09:44 AM

and dead end, thats freakn hilarious.

**Gardo** · 06-07-2002, 03:44 PM

synthol or not it's still impressive.

**Gene** · 06-09-2002, 10:27 AM

synthol in the bi's and tri's is NOT impressive when its blown out of proportion with the rest of the body

**The French Curler** · 06-21-2002, 12:30 PM

His arms look like synthol, but he certainly is not a weak man!

**Umbertito** · 06-26-2002, 04:14 PM

He could possibly one of the biggest arms naturally (I mean synthol, not roids of course)
The reason is he was around in the late 80's early 90's beforw synthol was around, Just my opinion
Also He doesn't really have the crazy synthol look as much as say Chris Bennet. He is at a higher Bodyfat %. Id say 12%-15%
