Public perception of ARNOLD

[Deciever]

i used to be considered malnurished... now im average for an adult. B fold..i never knew you were so obese...you better get your tax refund, and then go out and buy another 1000lb tire or something that you can play with

I guess these charts are made on the national average that say anything over a certain weight is overweight. Its weird though because as more and more fat people exist, it will bring the national average up to more than what it supposidly should be.

Arnold competed at 240, but in the off season, he probably got up to around 270, so he wasn't that far away from 300. But he was tall for a bodybuilder, 6'2.

never heard of him being anywhere near 270, not sure where you got that from...

I saw arnold on the news the other day, he was giving a motivational speech to troops in the mid-east. Then they had a training session with arnold. The man is still massive. He had a shirt on, but of course his chest was almost ripping out of it and beleive me he has no problem filling the sleeves either. I'll bet for Terminator 3, he'll be in great shape. The mans 52?53?, and he's still the shit.

What is with the Arnold dick-sucking fest? The man did nothing that the other bber´s weren´t doing at the same time.

I could see him being 270. He'd stick on a good 15lbs of bodyfat after a show and there's always the 20lbs of water gain so that sticks him right there. I think the dude's probably right about that.

well, you have to think: he did compete at around 235 - 240, right?

a weight gain of 30 - 35 lbs is definitely not unconceivable, even for a bber trying to stay lean in the offseason.

certainly not saying it is not POSSIBLE, just saying that I have never heard of him ever just going that heavy. We are all just speculating, right?

yep...i have no actual facts here, just educated guesses. i would estimate at least 250 + for sure.

didn't he reach 250 at 19?
