I prefer the oversized Arnold era look Yates somehow clung too. Todays bodybuilders quads are too big and no attention paid to calves and forearms which make for that rugged warrior look. Calves, neck and forearms should all be the same size, and at least 19".

Yes because Dorian's calves are literally as big as his quads..I'd say my point was pretty clear there.Originally Posted by FAN0FdaSport

Your neck should be the same size as your forearms?Originally Posted by Joel H
Are you ****ing kidding me?
I can't fit my two hands around my neck.
Do that with your hands just now.
Go on!
Are you seriously suggesting your forearms should be that size.

Dorians calf to quad ratio is seen in every pose. Phil's arms to chest are not.Originally Posted by Larfleeze
Once again you said Dex's ab and thigh pose is a bad pose for him. Your opinion on the balance of an athletes physique compared to another is near worthless.A pattern in the chaos.

It displays his undersized quads, total lack of calves, missing chunk of lat, abs that taper in the wrong direction and somehow even though his abs are fully tensed, his gut. How the hell is it a strong pose for him?Originally Posted by flangmasterj

Eric Spoto the world-record holder for raw bench press (722 pounds paused) , and competitive arm wrestler has 19.5 inch forearms at 330 pounds. I'd say there are very few people with forearms over 19 inches.
Right
Young Eric with Branch lol...
And for sh*ts and gigs....dat triceps!

The guy who owns my gym had 20" forearms before he went in to hospital just over a year ago. 6'3 (or 4) and used to be 'Warrior' on the UK Gladiators show in the early 90s.
He always used to challenge everyone and say he'd give a free membership to anyone with bigger arms than his forearms lol
No one ever got a free membership.IG: waldronconstruction

Ive read a lot of Dorian earlier articles when he wrote for flex in 2002, 2003, when he described how to train back. I took this information and built a huge back. I like his philosophy on training it makes sense for the most part to me. He was a monster thats for sure and ahead of his time. and yes he compares to todays guys, in fact hes just as conditioned or moreso than the top guys today, including yes Heath
