When in reality he ronnie would blow arnold away, even in his prime. At i would have a hard time of comparing the two...
Arnold:
Height: 6'2"
Arms: 22"
Off Season Weight: Around 270 lbs.
Competition Weight: Around 250 lbs.
Ronnie:
Height: 5'11"
Arms: 22"
Off Season Weight: About 330
Competition Weight: 300
Ronnie is giving up 3 inches in height and still easily crushes Arnold in total muscle mass.
lol it seems altho he's retired, arnold still seems to be growing. I dont believe arnolds arms were ever 22" From what ive picked up and read over the years, older stuff from the 80's and before seems to suggest his arms were about 20" more recent stuff has then at 21". I read a report by an official who measured both arnolds and sergio's arms. Arnolds came up at like 19 7/8ths" Sergio's were about 20 1/8th"Quote:

I belive arnolds arms where 22 inches. Just look at all the pics(except that fake one with ronnie). Thats not 20 inch guns
Who knows what Ronnie is at now, guy is seriously starting to become in-human, which is cool i guess cuz thats what he's going for.
DRUGS, DRUGS, AND MORE DRUGS...... That's why Ronnie is so much more massive than Arnold was. Also, wasn't Arnie in his early 20s when he started winning his Mr.Os? Wasn't Ronnie in his early to mid-thirties? So, an extra 10 years of training and juicing. I would take Arnolds physique any day of the week and twice on Sundays.Quote:

Money and fame were more important that becomeing more of a freak
Arnold's arms were 22 inches .
Ronnies are currently 23.5 , or 24 inches.
Arnold's don't look as impressive because they're not as compact as coleman's . Coleman's arms are smaller than arnold's length wise , thus the muscle is more compact .
If Arnold had set out to become a " monster " he would have been the biggest ****ed monster out there but he was more interested in being symetrical and looking pretty. Who do you think is more popular with women ? Arnold , or Ronnie ?
Ronnie is big and bad , but I do not think he would have totally belittled arnold even though arnold wasn't deadset on becoming a mass monster like ronnie is .
I think arnolds arms looks more impressive then colemans easily. He had the best looking biceps of all time imo. Colemans arms are big but "uggly" compered to arnols perfectly shaped arms. **** I sound like Im in love with arnie :lol:
I love that pic.
actually arnolds competition weight was around 235-243....he was really really not nearly as big as the bodybuilders today. the two things that arnold had tho were the arms and calves. those are the two things that stood out form him. o and the fact his waist was only around 30 inches. he is my dream and i hope oneday i can be just like him.
Arnold is Da Man....
his waist was around 34 inches if im not mistakenQuote:

arnie's arms were 20" in predator if you have ever seen the interview with jessie ventura when he and arnold held a contest who had the biggest biceps when shooting started...and arnold won by 2"...
anyway... if you look at that pic you can't argue that arnold is more aesthetically pleasing and not emaciated compared to coleman...who is more massive and compact...arnold would not be blown offstage by any means...that pictures proves that he was a monster...
'
PS arnold was a 32' waist...
Actually in Arnold's "Encyclopedia of Bodybuilding" he states that at his most massive ever he was 245#.
