Arnold is way over rated !!

I've narrowed it down to he's rib cage that gives him that vacuum look that he claims pull overs gave him. Yea right. I don't know why people idolise this shape so much. I know he's body looks better than mine and most. but honestly he's over rated. He's build is not appealing he's smooth and he's arms are over powering. Don't know why all the fuss. Some pics he looks great but colour pics and footage is totally revealing of he's flaws.

Arnold will be demoralised if he reads this thread; he may even consider himself very lucky if he learns he was overrated.
 
I thinks he trancended just BB. Its was the media attention he brought to the sport as well ............ but the dude did have the best physique at the time.

Arnold over rated:rolleyes: Is this a troll?? If it is it's not a good one. :cool:

Saying he was overrated is like saying a Lamborghini is just another car compared to a Hyundai Excel.

This is what body builders should look like IMO. I don't even look at the disporportionate body builder that look way too big. Even he was getting close to getting too big for his frame. But all those Mr Universe trophies on his mantle piece would suggest otherwise.
 
Hindsight is a wonderful thing. Sure I don't think Arnold's physique was complete but bodybuilding needed him and he certainly produced the goods.

Arnold's physique wouldn't trouble many of today's top pros but if he was around today he would have a different physique to the 1970s model.
