How was arnold only 230 in his prime?
I know guys who are his height of 6'1 230 that don't look half as big as him, and there not even fat and fat doesn't weigh THAT much.
Was he really only 230 lbs? he seems to be alot more to me.
 
He had no muscle mass below the waist, guys these days do more leg work.
 
Holly fuck another stupid Arnold question, how the hell are we supposed to know what his weight was? how the hell are we supposed to know how he looked so big and jacked at 230 if that was his weight? Who the fuck are we his ex-nutritionists, his BFFs, his workout buddy, his ex-personal trainer? Take your manlet self and GTFO with these stupid questions no one can answer with certainty.
 
Arnold was 240 dry in contest ready condition. When he was bulking, I guarantee he was closer to 270 at his heaviest. He was a huge dude. When I was 250, I looked at minimum 30 lean pounds shy of Arnold, if not a lot more and I'm 6'2.

a lot more

his height also has been disputed, most say he was 5'10
so that would make him look a little bigger than at over 6'
and i'm convinced most muscle dudes would suck arnold off if given
the chance

that's because bb'rs today are roided out freaks. Arnold was a genetic masterpiece. He could look bulk and amazing and STILL run a mile or two or start in action films shooting bad guys.

Today's bbr's couldn't run 10 meters with all that weight.

Levrone was a hell of an athlete.

So is Phil Heath.

Kai Greene too.

Wtf are you smoking?

before they put on those extra 100lbs of muscle. Not that these guys aren't athletes but let's be real, they're not functional anymore except for one thing. When you're 5'9 and weigh 300+ pounds your 40 time ain't gonna turn any scouts heads.

40 time for the NFL is a meaningless metric anyway.

Insulin and absurd GH is the difference between todays bodybuilders and BB's of Arnold's era.

depends on the position. For lineman it's almost completely irrelevant, LB'ers barely relevant...but for positions like WR, RB, DB...those guys stretch their legs for at least 40 yds on nearly every play during a game. I would like to see the guys at the combine have to run multiple 40's with enough time in between that you get in a real game. Let's see these guys run 4 or 5 back to back 4.3's. Ain't gonna happen.

I'd also like to see them toss the 225 bench...that's the most meaningless metric of all. Have them bull rush a 340lb sled, see who does it the fastest.

Oh, really?

Kevin Levrone Sprint - YouTube

Levrone races Dwain Chambers, a world class sprinter, and stays right with him. That's some impressive speed, even moreso with all the extra weight.

Like I said, some of these guys are extremely capable even when jacked through the roof.

Not that I'm not impressed with Levrone's initial get off, but he did get smoked after about 10 yds. Chambers was just stretchin his legs the last half of that run. Plus Lavrone was also clearly not in offseason shape, he came in lean cause he knew he had to carry as little weight as possible. Have you been to bb'ing expo's and seen some of these guys at the booths who are clearly offseason and weighing over 300lbs? Lavrone was obviously closer to his contest weight than he was to a bulking phase. Now that sprinter could run those sprints all day, cause that's how he trains....would Lavrone have been able to do sprint after sprint after sprint? Hey if he could much props to the man, but seriously if most of those guys could have played a major proffessional sport they would have. Guys riding the bench for a couple years in the NFL make 10 times more than 90% of the bb'ers out there today. You have to be legitimately competing for the Olympia to make anywhere near the kind of money a journeyman starter in the NFL makes. League minimum is now what in the NFL, $375k? If you're a world class athlete you're gonna try for that. BB'ing is a niche, most world class athletes could not be BB'ers because they're muscle and tendon connections are simply not designed for the visual asthetic favored in BB'ing....they're built for war, not show.

I missed the part where he stayed right with him. Any athletic ability you're born with, you basically give up when you decide you want to be a faggotty bodybuilder. The fact that some people consider bb to be a sport boggles my mind.

That was only a sprint bro, a short burst of energy; of course he could do that. Anything much further than that with an elevated HR and he'd be gassed in no time. It's science brah, the more muscle you have, the more oxygen is needed for them during HIT. I was 225 at my heaviest single digits BF and my CV stamina was fuckig shit, and I did it everyday. BB is meant to be all aesthetics, there's no real functionality. Shit, I would have to take a deep breath just to reach into my backseat to buckle in my daughter. That's actually when I knew I wanted to drop weight. Coolest fucking story ever

You guys took it the wrong way. I responded to redscam specifically about the sprinting comment because I knew about the sprint video. It was halfway a joke. Then you bring up longevity and all this other crap. I'm not retarded.

Of course they aren't going to be running marathons etc.
 
Levrone never weighed over 230 in his fucking life. Lots on NFL backs that heavy and much faster. i don't know what my point is but, whatever, that ngr got smoked. I don't know what they ran but 6.62 sux in the forty, Real Talk

hang on a second here buff, was that the 40 they ran? I'm sorry I completely missed that. If that was the 40, and Levrone ran a 6.62....I don't really honestly know what to say about that. It certainly didn't look that slow on camera but omg if it was. That's not just a terrible 40 time, that's a clinically obese 40 time. Not only is that not "world class", it's bordering on special olympics.
 
No it wasn't a 40. I don't know how long it was. Longer than 40 yards though, that's for sure.

Must have been a 60 time then, which I guess is ok, not world class by any means but decent. I find it odd they would have run the 60, because it is exclusive to baseball.

I consistantly ran 6.1 when I was playing ball. Have been clocked at 6.05, I also ran a 4.35 forty, but i was 195 lbs too.

You never got clocked legit at 6.05.

Deon Sanders ran a 6.25 in his prime. I doubt you were that much faster than him.

7.0 is average, anything 6.6 and under damn fast.

It's rare an MLB'er does under 6.4 (Rickey Henderson, Rafael Furcal, Deon Sanders, etc.)

Well it sure as fuck wasnt the 100m if the time was a 6.62 LOL

Why would they have chosen a catch distance? The shorter the distance the better it would have been for Levrone. And I hardly think a world class sprinter would have had a problem with running a 40.

1) who's 6.6 time was that though? Levrone's or the winner?

2) WHy was the distance never stated in the video gut dammit I'm pacing I'm so mad. Seriously, the distance run should have been the prime focus of the discussion.
 
Who cares. The point is that being jacked doesn't mean you're physically incapable by default.

You white fucker I know what I was clocked at, I know the discrepencies in hand held clocks too, but I was always around 6.1 never ran over a 6.3, so i'm not sure who you talking about 6.4 and shit but a ngr knows what a clock bes saying. And FYI fuck Ricky Henderson, Rafel Furcal ran a consistant 6.0 to 6.1 when he played in Atlanta, so you pitching type non-athletic ngrs leave the running and hitting to the athletes.

never said these guys weren't physically incapable, especially in relation to the average hump. But in your own words you used the phrase "world class athletes". They are world class bodybuilders no question, and most world class athletes could not be world class bodybuilders. But the reverse is true as well. Either you build your physique to step on a stage in posing trunks or you build it for war and leverage.
