The Arnold Van Stallone Physique

[Patmuscled!]

Which guy to u pick? lol

Lol!

But try putting that pic of Sly beside pics of Frank Zane, Francis Benfatto, Bob Paris, Steve Reeves or Joe Betancourt (if you're into bodybuilding, you should know Joe), then what body would women choose?

Heck, Mark Wahlberg has a better physique than Sly.

[Patmuscled!]

His arms look 17 at most and his chest looks about a 46 there.

His arms look 16 inches.

[Patmuscled!]

Franco reveals. "In fact, if Sly had decided to be a bodybuilder instead of an actor, with his great proportions, his tremendous athletic ability and his mental drive, he would certainly have ended up as one of the top physique champions'"

He may have said that because he was Stallone's trainer. He probably just wanted to motivate Sly. It maybe half meant, you know. I don't think there's any greater motivation in getting in shape than be offered $20M to star in an action film. Offer me that, and I'll gladly jog, lift weights and diet like hell seven days a week and 24 hours a day for 4 or 5 months if that's what it takes. Forget overtraining. Lol.

[Patmuscled!]

Bottom line is that ARNOLD is to SUPERMAN or HERCULES or THOR as Stallone is to SPIDERMAN, BATMAN or TARZAN at best.

[Patmuscled!]

Believe or not, in his book Sly says that he reached 2.8%...
So yes, he had greater conditioning than even arnold

Don't believe everything you read especially from an actor who always promote himself to the public. He never reached that low level of bodyfat. Only a select few pro boybuilders like Gaspari, Munzer, Aykutlug, Yates and all the other elite pros would dare go to the 1-2% bodyfat range.

[Patmuscled!]

You're right!
Sly is not a bber, but he's a legend of bbing!

NO, he's not a legend of bodybuilding. He never even set foot on stage so how is that? Is he in the "hall of fame"? Stallone is a legendary action star and one of the most famous men on earth. He's nothing in bodybuilding if you know what I really mean.

[FendersRule]

What's up with the vascularity on the right side of his body?

[iDarren]

Bottom line is that ARNOLD is to SUPERMAN or HERCULES or THOR as Stallone is to SPIDERMAN, BATMAN or TARZAN at best.

Nah, Batman's a lot broader, taller and much more muscular than Stallone.

But I still love Rocky

[FaceThePain]

check out the attachment i just added of stallones forearm in RAMBO 4!!
Its a screencap from the second trailer

That is NOT Sly, it's a stunt double.

[Bodysteele]

I dont get the Stallone attraction....

Looks like a smallish framed average heighted guy who has conditioned himself alot for a lean physique.

I dont see anything remotely resembling superior structure or any leg development at all.

In fact I remember seeing him running in Rocky 3 and thinking " goddamn he has no ass or hammies" and he looked slow as molasses and stiff while he was racing down the beach.

I think he is a genious of self promotion though...good for him.

[Clean]

Arnold has no socks lol

Who wants to wager that they all f*cked that girl?

Are you for real? Come on dude...How many people do you run into in your daily life that looks like Stallone then or now? I sure as heck dont see them...EVER...He was in top physical shape and still looks great. I just dont understand why people try and dog someone for not being 200+lbs or a pro bber? He is the main reason Im training again and the main reason I will never stop again...STALLONE FOREVER!!!!!!!!

How many people? A lot actually. It's not like you're talking about Jay Cutler or Dorian Yates. The thing is, Stallone is not really as great as you think he is, physique-wise. He doesn't look superhuman. He never did look superhuman. So forget Stallone and just workout. There are more inspiring bodies you can aspire to. Stallone just happens to be a celebrity.

My love of Stallone is not cause he is just an actor, but his portrail of Rocky and the story, the way he tries to teach a man to treat a woman and to love his kid..And to stand up for his beliefs. Its how this man has been workingout forever and still hanging in there when many others have failed and given up.He is still doing it...

Its more my love of a character then just Stallone. But as far as bodies go...I would rather look like Stallone as Jay or Dorian any day of the week. And from what I have heard from women, they like a body like Stallone's way more than a probber...Most people do..

[bloodmuscle]

Sly and Brad's bods are not that much different. Sly had him by just a few pounds of pure muscle.

Just a few pounds of pure muscle...
You're right. That's the difference between Sly and most other guys...

[bloodmuscle]

Sly is actually 5'9". He always wears elevators to add inches to his height. He was always insecure of his height. He admitted it before. When you see him in person, you'll be a little surprised how small he actually is. You'll see average guys in the street much more physically imposing than Rambo.

Sly is taller than you buddy!
Does it mean that Sly and average guys in the street are much more physically imposing than you?
LOL

[bloodmuscle]

All those pics prove one thing, Sly is ripped but not big. There are thousands of Stallone's in many gyms around the world. But the guy is inspiring because he is SYLVESTER STALLONE. We all admire him in some ways.

You're right. We all admire SYLVESTER STALLONE in some ways.
We all admire him for his physical condition!
He is not the most muscled guy in the world
He is one the most famous muscled guy!

[Amra]

Who wants to wager that they all f*cked that girl?

Arnold and Sly did...they made Franco beat-off in the corner.

[Tainted]

This guy is David Beckham. As far as I know he is not gay and girls love him lol

That guy was David Beckham? The soccer player women love? You can't be serious... the photo has to be photoshopped or soemthing...

[Trevtrbo]

This is where he reached his alltime peak imo

[mikieson]

This is where he reached his alltime peak imo

He does look pretty slick there...I think he has been great since Rocky1 till now though..hehehe....

[Starlynx]

Don' forget to compare their muscles under their shorts lol!
and compare them with a skinny girl with hairy legs lol !
Do u agree that Sly is not a girl ?

LMFAO *DIES*

If you like Stallone because he played Rocky, then you should like Rocky and not Stallone. Stallone is not Rocky in real life and he is a known womanizer. It's only now that Stallone settled down for good as a family man. What does Stallone believe that he always stood for? Do you know Stallone personally or is this all a product of your own illusion of what Stallone is in real life? Stallone working out forever? Sure, and so do thousands or even millions of men his age who are not popular that's why you don't see them. Hey, I'd rather look like Lee Labrada (who is not a freak) but has way better genetics than Stallone. You go to natural bodybuilding competition or watch seasoned middleweight bodybuilders in competiton, and you'll realize Stallone's body is after all not that great.

Alot?

And alot of them dont have to resort to AAS use either.

[mikieson]

Well to each their own. Im not telling anyone else to like the guy like I do. I happen to not respect these so called "natural" bbers that compete. As there is no way in heaven or earth that people get that big and cut and not use gear. Sorry its true.
And many excomeditors and trainers have come out over the years and have said that anyone who trains and competes does some form of roids. Highschool kids are taking roids and its common place in all sports.
So for me Stallone taking something to get pumped up for a film is nothing major and I could care less..
He is still an inspirration to many people including me...

[Mighty_Mike1984]

There legs look ****ing pathetic.

[bloodmuscle]

Sly's legs...

are you that naive? they're physiques are tailored to their profession's needs. Sly was awesome at fitness and power whereas the those in pro BBing train for size (and are obviously strong) but no way near as aerobically fit.

Exactly. Stallone didnt try and be a PROBBER, he tried to get his body in top physical shape and he succeded with great success....And still, I would bet more women would like Stallones body more than the pumped up larger, veinier,over the top bber. Matter of fact I know, as I grew up in a house full of 3 sisters, a mom and a grandma. And my wife feels the same way.
