Vaccumm pose

[c3bodybuilding]

These were nearly a mandatory thing in the old days. Reeves, Park, Arnold, Pearl, Zane, Nubret, etc, etc all did some form of vaccumm shot in their routine. You need a small waist, and not only small but thin as well. The fat f**ks of today don't really have both and in some cases neither. Oh well

Arnold had some great tips for working on this shot in his encyclopedia. Oops, I shouldn't bring that up. Arnold was an idiot when it came to training and sure didn't know what he was talking about......

You have to have a big rib cage to do that pose well. One of the reasons people did pullovers was to stretch the cartilege at the ends of the ribs. I could do it but not nearly as well as Zane.
