arnold vs ronnie.... lets here what you guys think

[Sir-Que]

well bro thats not tru, to make a living in bbing you have to be a pro, what about amateur bbers, how about needsize, he trains to compete, but doesnt live off of it, does that mean that he works out to impress girls? and what im trying to get to is that so many guys on this site do it for the girls (again, nothing wrong with that) but if one is working to impress the girls then they have no right to judge bbers with a criteria that they would judge themselves, coz that does not apply to bbers. they dont train to attract girls they train to be freaks. thats what kinda irritates me when we start to talk about these things, people who see bbing as some guys trying to look good. that might be the case with ppl on this site, but dont confuse that with bbing. and another thing is the fact that these guys who work out to impress the girls, are pretty serious gear users, and in my opinion, these guys shouldnt have to result to using gear, if their goal is to attract girls.[/QUOTE]

Couldn't agree more. The reason you hear this at EF is because most of the guys here workout and juice to get pussy, plain and simple. No seriouse BB or person who lives to train gives a fuck what women want, I know I don't. And i'm pretty sure all the men across the nation (THOSE OVER 200lbs anyway ) who train like pro's don't give a fuck either.

Arnold for sure... then when I wasn't that huge anymore I could always fall back as being a governor. I was watching Predator late night a few nights ago, and he is fucking huge in that! That was way past his heyday. Sure Ronnie is an enormous beast, but Arnold's hugeness will stand the test of time...

its too bad that people like us are a minority on this site, kind of ironic isnt it.

how will "arnold's hugeness" stand the test of time? if arnold was to compete today...or should i say if arnold tried to compete today with the other pros, looking like he did in his prime, he'd get laughed at. plain and simple. im even willing to say that he wouldnt even get his procard, not with those legs, back shoulders and traps. but like i said earlier, its useless to discuss this on this board coz apparently most people here just want pussy.

At that time in bodybuilding, there weren't that many freaks. Arnold was the "freak," in those days and he still looked good. What I meant by "standing the test of time," is he set the standards for future bbs, what is impressive now wasn't possible then. There would be no place for people like Coleman if it wasn't for Arnold.

for the most part i agree with you. what i dont agree with, or do but to an extent, is that they set the standard. yes its tru they did, but not for todays guys. arnold set the standard for those who came immediately after him, then haney surpassed that standard and we had a new standard for judging, then we got dorian who set the standard for todays guys, so here came ronnie, who sets the standard for the future mr.O. im willing to bet my balls that the next mr.o will most definately be a freak. why? because he has to fit the standard, the profile, and has to please the criteria used to judge todays bbers. and this standard was set by....ronnie coleman. not arnold. but what arnold IS responsible for is, laying the foundation, think of it as a building (its corny but w/e).

i wish i had branch warren's legs and arnold's upper

Arnie or Ronnie? Arnold...easily.

I agree with the guys saying that true BBing is not about doing it for females. As someone stated in a previous post, juicers w/ 20 inch arms are a dime a dozen these days in the 18-33 demographic (most prone to lift for women).

All I can say is "take a number". You don't stand out. You aren't special. You are just placing yourself into another group, which is fine (I guess) as someone stated. Society can be looked at as a cluster of groups.

I'm not aiming to be a bodybuilder. I am simply trying to take care of my body, improve myself, and fight my poor genetics. The reason for that is not the female factor.

I have contemplated juicing only to combat my poor genetics, which makes it more justifiable in my case. I will make my final decision once I get to <=10%BF and have bloodwork done.

arnold, ronnie is a freak and has ruined bbing imo. i think dex is the only guy who has a great physique, most of the other guys are freaks. arnold was perfect
