Why in the hell is Arnold even mentioned? The man w/ biceps and chest...that's it. Haney ahead of him, Segio ahead of him, Francois, the list goes on.

...right :uhoh2:


Couch and Harris aren't in the same league as Ronnie or Dorian because they never get it right on stage. Also, I can't see how Arnold has one of the best back's in history. Great V-Taper? Sure, but let's see him hit a good rear lat spread.

Moving on, from a symmetry/detail standpoint I think we have to mention Flex and Shawn as having some of the best backs ever because you just don't see detail like those guys had anymore. However, Ronnie's back from 1998-2003 is the best back of all-time, hands down bar none.

Gotcha. I think Harris could have a great back in time but something always seems to go so wrong with his prep. His proportions during the off-season are crazy.
