What do you think about Levrone's comeback for 2016 Olympia.

I think in the end its going to hurt his legacy if he doesn't place top 5. Anything less than a stellar showing he will be a laughing stock

I also feel this is all related to his Supplement Company
 
He could always get in Great Shape in a short period of time, we will see!

He can't and he won't. Nobody will EVER dethrone Phil. Phil will be Mr. O until he decides to retire.

Kevin has said he's doing a comeback multiple times, I won't believe he will be on stage until he shows up in the building.

At his age (52), he is fighting against Father Time.

I don't like the trend towards larger, distended waists that's been common for a while now.

Young Ronnie Coleman had a tiny waist:

I wouldn't say he's my favorite, but Sergio Oliva was just unreal looking, especially for his time.

I'm also a little biased because he trained my dad a while back when he competed, but John DeFendis had an awesome vacuum and size:

I'd really like to see small waists and vacuum-type poses make a comeback in professional bodybuilding.
 
One of the best !!

I want to say right now, it's BRANCH WARREN because I am a leg and squats guy, but Evan Centopani is insightful, grows his own food, and does his best to respond to everyone (IG).

What about Tom Platz (Sorry I'm Old)
 
I don't really have an overall favorite, but out of the current top bodybuilders, the ones I really enjoy seeing on stage include: Juan Morel, Dexter Jackson, Cedric McMillan, and I'm very interested in Dallas McCarver's career since he's only a few years older than me and already on the Olympia stage. 80 pounds heavier than me and leaner.... Unreal.
 
Light build compared to Arnold, Lou, Franco, Tom Platz,

One other could be Bertil Fox,

he is another of my favorite bodybuilders.

Light, yes. But he routinely placed at the top. Arnold is still and always will be my fave, but Frank provides a nice level of symmetry that's hard to come by.
 
All the old school heads, Sergio, Padilla, Grimek, Val Vasilef, Arnold, Zane, Dickerson, Larry Scott, Casey Viator, Boyer Coe. The list goes on...today's shape~~too many pharmaceuticals imo. Sergio is still my all time fav. Dorian Yates, I love his work ethic and philosophy. Did anyone see his interview on London Real?
 
And...platz! Talk about intensity and Passion!!! Still way ahead of his time in Leg Development. I also like Lee Priest and Levrone if you wanna talk 90's.

He has changed allot from watching the London Real videos from his bodybuilding days.
 
Arnold- Charisma, Intelligence, mass monster in his era, amazing aesthetics and he killed predator!

Frank Zane- The chemist, makes me feel better about the amount of supplements I pop. A testament to what a fully developed ectomorph may achieve, albeit still some incredible genetics.

Serge Nubret - The man ate horses to get swole, amazing lines, incredible V taper

Steeve Reeves - I just liked the fact he managed to look fantastic without needing to be at 5% BF or excessively huge.

Who's Arnold?? Lol! Oh the jealous fat out of shape old guy. I can't stand that clown!

Tell how ya really feel man. This is a safe place. Let it out.

On my second attempt at this. My first choice was Arnold for so many reasons. The strategist. He psyched people out.

Mike Mentzer came on my radar again recently with a mention. Just a genius. He engineered lifting strategies still used today.

It's what he did for others that makes him a great to me.

I hear you Brother he just does damage to bodybuilding now. Because he is jealous and can't hold a candle to these guys. Yes Mentzer was my choice he only lost to Arnold because the politics and the weider brothers controlled everything. It's just my opinion brother! Lol

I don't know if lifting weights (pumping iron) would be as mainstream and popular as it is today if it wasn't for Arnold though. Also, it seems like a lot of old-school bodybuilders (multiple Mr. Olympias) are pretty vocal about criticizing modern bodybuilders (especially the guts).
 
Arnold is a jealous joke he's even jealous of Stallone cause he's in shape and Arnold has tits like a girl. He's a fat flabby old man. Lmfao!!!

Ok, but I still think that past Arnold (in his prime) was pretty important in making lifting weights and bodybuilding more mainstream/acceptable. Regardless of it you like them man now or not, he's a pretty important figure in the history of bodybuilding, no? Stallone is definitely in great shape, but isn't Arnold starting to get back into shape as well? He seems to always keep his shirt on nowadays, but his arms seem to be doing pretty well again. Haven't he and Stallone been friends for a long time now?
