It's not even close when comparing the physiques of today versus yesterday; I prefer the latter by far.

For me it will always be the classic flow and shape, so Arnold.
Ronnie's freakness and the overall freak factor since the 2000's is impressive on its own, but from an art point of view, they will never come close to the Golden Era.

@Iceman1981 I have a question for you: I have seen this photo (screenshot here) in a youtube video about training etc, and I am pretty sure this is Samir Bannout doing pullups.
Do you have the full res pic? It looks sick btw.
