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

These days it is a little excessive in my opinion.

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??

Status: offline 		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

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
