What’s is the history of compulsory poses ?I think front double biceps is oldest pose ? was front chest pose was compulsory pose in 60.s and in 70,?
Which is ur favorite pose ?
Discuss about posing.
Im not entirely sure but I would say a modified most muscular pose is the oldest pose. Even guys like Harold Poole (sp) and guys from that era were doing some type of version of it. Front double biceps would be next id imagine.
My personal favorite is the twisting side chest like Arnold did. This pose shows off the chest to waist ratio, deltoid detail, arm size and detail, hamstrong/quad seperation, calves, etc.
The back double biceps would be my second favorite especially Dorians and Wheelers. This pose shows off the entire posterior and I like it even better when there is great calves to compliment it.

Once the stillness comes into your life, then the mind also becomes absolutely still. When your mind becomes still, your intelligence explodes.
When your happiness is dependent upon what is happening outside of you, constantly you live as a slave to the external situation.
You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection.

which pose is most muscular pose ?please make it clear .and if u have any pic .post please
I voted for back double bi, but it would really depend on the pro for which pose i like the best.
Markus Ruhl- Front lat spread, Most muscular
Ronnie Coleman (2003)- back double bicep
Lee preist- Victory pose
Dorian Yates- Back lat spread
Branch Warren- traditional most muscular
Got to be Frank Zane's supine above head double forearm pose, shows forearms, biceps, serratus and abs at once. I love classic posing
....second one would be Arnold's side double biceps showing the sheer mass of his biceps from both inside and outside of arms at once.
Now for compulsories....I like the front lat spread, showing the true symmetry and definition of the front at once with thighs.

It can move one's heart to see a young couple romantically enthralled with each other. But the heart becomes deeply sad just a few months later - to see their paralyzing dependence on one another.

Im a back double bicep fan, but love the lat spread too. But I have to say the ab thigh pose seems to be making a comeback. The judges look at that pose, they want the x frame. That pose makes guys like victor, dennis, dexter, and phil top contenders.

Hell theres only one thing that you need to have in your mind ... Pump ... PUMP! like a beast!! like if you where Godzilla ! so powerful!! or very insane!
I personally now believe the side chest is the best pose
It shows off the greatest amount of a persons physique at one time. It shows conditioning via possible intercostal appearence (check out Levrones famour side chest). If a person has the right structure and hits the pose right it can show lats as well. It also shows the deltoid conditioning well as well as the midsection to upper body ratio. This is prolly why now a days the pose isnt as popular, because most guys with bloated waists dont look very good in it so they alll want to hit the back poses..
