Today's champs too ripped

Since 1975 I think bodybuilding has veered away from aesthetics and become more and more of a freakshow. The top pros today bear very little resemblance to human beings.

Dorian is huge, but would I want to look like that? No way. He looks like a guy trapped inside a vascular refrigerator of excess muscle.

Sure, all the bbers in the 60s and 70s were juiced, but they looked a lot healthier than our champs today, who are basically daredevils, seeing how big and ripped they can get just this side of death.

Personally I think being ripped and vascular is way overemphasized in today's bodybuilding. I wish judging standards were what they were in the 1970s. The pros would be a lot healthier, they wouldn't be falling over dead backstage, and they'd be able to keep a career going longer than two or three years.

i know a lot of guys will say I sound like a PUSSY, but that's my two cents. I'd much rather be healthy, striving to look like Marcus Reinhardt, than destroy myself trying to look like Dorian

Don't worry about being called a pussy. I would say this post and that other one about goals and its poll asking Mr O type body v. Muscle and Fitness cover, reveal that there are alot more people on this board who would rather look like an Arnold than a Coleman.

Frank Sepe Uhhh, make that Frank Sepe when he was juiced.

madog69, no way

Franco couldn't beat Arnold. One must be realistic here.
It was harder for him to win against Serge Nubret. The final line up against Franco was just a formality.

Clone Frank Sepe?

Yep, Frank Sepe juiced was pretty hard to beat. There's pix of him in that condition all over the net.

Of course, not only the physique, I'd want that face of his as well. Any plastic surgeons in the house?
