Good link. Nice pics

[BITTAPART2]

very cool

[SVTMuscle*]

damn lee and ronnie both have that huge space in between their abs, thats so weird!

[JAYROD]

that was interesting. larry scott's arms are damn near perfect.

[DecimaMAS]

That really makes me want to hit the lats a bit harder..

[UpstateTank]

Nice

[acciaio]

Look at Sergio Oliva.... Talking about good genetics...

[Sepsis]

holly shit, ruhl makes zane look like a 12 year old boy!

[Lion King]

No comparison. Too many advances in nutrition, diet and drugs.

[skank]

Nice photo comparison! It looks like new school beats old school.

[muscle_20]

OOOOOOH yes what a great comparision use the smallest old time bb namely Zane and put his puny ass against todays biggest aka Ruhl thats the best way to highlight the difference as much as possible!!!!!!!!!

New school all the way all old school was is new school with lagging parts in my opinion!
You wana look like Zane shit with half decent genetics you can achieve that with a few lose dosed cycles yeah you may not be as ripped as him but you can get the mass.

Jeff king's leg striated like crazy.

[Baba]

There are lot of guys at my gym that look like frank zane, you can always find them holding up the abb machines. Zane was great for his time.

[crazyhorse666]

realy neat.

[gigem]

its hard to compare you can take todays bbs with the technology and knowledge of old school it would be alot more even.theres alot of shit to it.wait for another 10 yrs itll be the same thing

[BONE.CRUSHER]

i like the back pic with arnold dorian and ronnie

[doolo]

I rarely post but damn. Frank zane was godly. I'm just gonna post a little video clip instead of talking too much http://youtube.com/watch?v=ws4JA0226w4

I can guarantee theres nobody in your gym that looks like him.

[bhamstaff]

frank zane has a very aesthetic and eye pleasing body. but he is small, not very big at all. Dorian yates looks awesome and flex wheeler.

[TatMan]

I prefer the look of the old pros with the small abs and waists! I still prefer arnolds build over todays pros!

[Lfs2shrt2bsml]

what a bunch of machines

[Braveheart04]

Call me crazy, but I think Tom Platz has the best legs of all time, then and now.

[facile]

nice coparison, interesting to see the changes, now image what today's guys will look like compared to the next generation, scary to imagine! 350lbs????

Dorian is still one of my all time favorites.

[Kiem]

Wow! That image of Flex Wheeler beside Serge Nubret is just crazy. That is the ultimate body i want. Thanks for sharing the link.

[JSola]

Great link. Todays bbs are immense and incredible, but sometimes I think that the focus on ascetic symetry and proportion are overlooked today and sheer size is whats more respected now. I like Zane, and Nubret, they remind me of todays Flex and Mcquay who aren't quite as massive, but more pleasing ascetically.

very neat to see. I love the NEW and the PAST

[LLsoldier]

good pics thanks

[39+1]

good post really good

[Schmidty]

awsome

[youngerlion]

yea the back pic is crazy

[ThePump]

although i would much rather have the build of the old guys, it's amazing to see how far superior the new guys are.

[kickinit]

OLD SCHOOL BY FAR! Great link

[McJuicer]

definitely a different game back then! Can't really compare Ronnie to anyone pre-1990

[SaSqUaDgE]

new pros for sure

[Electry]

Yep, New pros !

[C-heavyweight]

The new pros look great, don't get me wrong. I would rather have a physique like Arnold, Serge Nubret, or Zane. The post 80's frame frame that i would like to have is Milos Sarcev. I think he was larger than the "old Pros" but still carried the symmetrical, proportions asthetical look just with more mass.

[jbm]

New pros with small waistlines...

[wukillabee]

I think old is better but i like quality over quantity. Can u imagine ronnie coleman or jay cutler doing stomach vaccums? Yeah right! Their guts stick out past their chin yet get granted olympia titles. Gotta love the idea of bigger is better, not! Thats just me though.

Exactly! Thats how i see it.

[gymnerd]

I would go old school myself. Damn, Ronnie has some HUGE legs.
