JohnKerr2 -> RE: What Bodybuilding Era Do You Admire Most? (May 8 2008 14:06:12)

Seventies.

Mainly because of the pleasing symmetry and aesthetics of the moustaches.



seanius -> RE: What Bodybuilding Era Do You Admire Most? (May 8 2008 14:11:08)

I like the guys in the 60's and 70's, somehow to me their physiques look cleaner and healthy.
Although I like seeing the freaks but i'd personaly choose to look like arnie over coleman

ditto



iaink -> RE: What Bodybuilding Era Do You Admire Most? (May 8 2008 14:13:48)

90's because that's when I started to train and read BB mags



CJW -> RE: What Bodybuilding Era Do You Admire Most? (May 8 2008 14:44:23)

Admire for what reason? There is no disputing an enormous amount of hard work has gone into all those physiques but persoanlly the 70s and 80s are my favourite; aesthetic appeal and the drug taking wasn't as obvious.
These days it is a little excessive in my opinion.



James -> RE: What Bodybuilding Era Do You Admire Most? (May 8 2008 14:46:06)

Today, because of evolution and progression



fraser -> RE: What Bodybuilding Era Do You Admire Most? (May 8 2008 14:57:54)

Today.

Dexter p1sses all over the 50s 60s & 70s for shape and symetry and the mass monsters of today are amazing. So what's not to like??



Jake -> RE: What Bodybuilding Era Do You Admire Most? (May 8 2008 15:03:50)

The naughties.



Firearm -> RE: What Bodybuilding Era Do You Admire Most? (May 8 2008 15:08:33)

70's by far

Symmetry > mass



wilki_C -> RE: What Bodybuilding Era Do You Admire Most? (May 8 2008 15:16:50)

60s-70s for me, much better physiquies IMO than todays top competitors



swift -> RE: What Bodybuilding Era Do You Admire Most? (May 8 2008 15:25:19)

Id say 60's and 70's because they manged to build top physiques without the internet and very little writing on the subject that i am aware of.

If it wasnt for the internet i dare say i wouldnt be in the shape i am now.

purely for traiing on instinct im going with before the 80's



DBAM -> RE: What Bodybuilding Era Do You Admire Most? (May 8 2008 15:46:01)

70's and 80's just think they looked better back then.Not keen on the mass monsters of today just does,nt look right to me.



dianabolik -> RE: What Bodybuilding Era Do You Admire Most? (May 8 2008 15:47:57)

Probably 60's or 70's. Just look at Arnie or Sergio.....amazing !



erekose -> RE: What Bodybuilding Era Do You Admire Most? (May 8 2008 15:49:05)

60s - 70s for me too.



Cardiff Muscle -> RE: What Bodybuilding Era Do You Admire Most? (May 8 2008 16:04:58)

Definatley the 80's!!

Was all muscle and mullets!



Big D -> RE: What Bodybuilding Era Do You Admire Most? (May 8 2008 16:13:14)

70's and 80's for me.

although dont know if i admire them more, i just prefer their physiques.

i have the upmost admiration for anyone that has ever got on stage.



H20 -> RE: What Bodybuilding Era Do You Admire Most? (May 8 2008 16:14:19)

More mid 70`s to mid 80`s ( sorry to be awkward lol) Guys like Beckles, Fuller, Fox, Dickerson, Platz , before Haney, Bannout etc.

Dr Zoidberg -> RE: What Bodybuilding Era Do You Admire Most? (May 8 2008 16:22:45)

As you've asked for a preference , I'll say todays

But my favourite era is going to be the next one - I am keen to see what bodybuiders will look like in 2050 !!

Hopefully "pretty" physiques will be a thing of the past by then [:D]
