This website is dedicated to following my progress into bodybuilding. Not only am I training for future contests, but my overall goal is to build my own body as close to the mould of Arnold's as possible. When I achieve that goal, I then want to find out just how well Arnold would compare to todays bodybuilding pros, and see how far I can go before having to get bigger.
Professional bodybuilding has changed considerably over the years. Today, it seems to be more about mass and bulk than about the best built man who trained for proportion and symmetry in the 70's and 80's.
In Arnold's peak days in the mid 70s, bodybuilders averaged between 200-240 lbs, whereas todays competition is bulking them up more towards a massive 300 lbs.
The question I wish to find the answer to is, "Could Arnold still remain King today?". |
