    ^^^right on hgh. Insulin abuse / misuse can also cause visceral fat ..that is fat surrounding your organs which also can lead to a distended abdomen . Id say mostly its the hgh at high doses prob almost continuous use...

    if arnie had bigger legs and shoulders he would be the best ever.His upper body is amazing but lacks some shoulders and alot of legs which is why when i got into BB he was my idol until i relized his trrble weak points.

    From what I've read he had a very hard time building his calves out of any part of his body, but he pulled it off. I would love to aim for a physique like arnolds. But the new things these days seems to be gaining as much mass as possible no matter if it's disproportional to your body height or to another bodypart.

    How is it possible that jay cutler @ 5' 9" can weight 274lbs but Arnold who is 6' 2" weighed 235lbs? Insane.

    im not getting into an arnold vs ronnie debate, as there are far too many opinions and it will never be decided lol, but one thing for sure, is that arnold was not in the same league size-wise as coleman.

    Some things that spring to my mind to help that statement:

    In some shots/angles (particularly when getting into position for the bench press early in the vid) arnold doesnt look that big, just in good shape. Ronnie looks freakishly big from every angle, in every pose.

    I think at his biggest, arnold would still look of normal proportions when wearing certain clothes, whilst ronnie would still look big in a sleeping bag.

    Man, Coleman is an absolute beast. I would rather look like Arnold any day though.

    Coleman is the best!
    Arnold is a classic!
    If Arnold will be competing today I bet he will be really freaky...

    Arnold at his peak was 240 in 1974 and Coleman 5'11" 247.

    In my opinion Arnold was much better competition wise.

    Coleman was bigger but ugly and too big.

    There is no concern for look nowadays. Its all about size.

    Arnold spent hours designing his body and working on proportion.

    His legs were not too small but in proportion to the rest.
