The Fibonacci ratio(aka "Phi") in competition

[Xx_Metro_xX]

I've had this thought for a while now and i've been too busy/lazy to post. I could do a whole write-up about using the fibonacci ratio for competition, but browse around this site and I think you'll find some interesting that will help with body proportion....

Lemme get a Fibonacci Sequence of 5 and 7 ? ?

Very cool stuff.

I remember the golden section rectangle from my design courses.

It'd be interesting to make a comparison study of several successful bodybuilders noted for their proportion and symmetry- Sergio Olivia, Frank Zane, etc. We might stumble on the secret of aesthetic resonance for successful competition.

Yes it would!

... let me know what you come up with


I remember Arnold saying that neck, calve, and bicep sizes should be equal... Not saying he's a theorist by any means but I think his development in his prime was great and very proportional.

Sergio Olivia and Frank Zane... those guys were more than amazing, very symetrical as well.
