Yes, "what" you want to look like, not "who".
Say, you had only 1 picture that represent the shape you strive to attain. Which picture would that be?
Here is mine:

To me this represent the absolutely perfect physique. Looking at Mike, I realize I still have a lot of work to be done.

Hey ZeOne, I second that. A close second to me would be Arnold, I'm working towards having my waist look like his, I even got his stomach pump exercises all memorized.

Great picture! It is amazing to see huge guys like Mike and Arnold with such tiny waists. I wonder what the secret is

I'm ok with the pic in my avy just a little less bf to get the 6 pack out and I'm happy as can be.
But maybe a flex wheeler at his best look isn't that bad either :D

Well said, pick up Arnold's Encyclopedia of Bodybuilding and turn to page 544. There's your answer.

Love the older type bodybuilder look best. Probably Platz. His legs just leave me speechless. But the above pics are nice too. Not into the over bulk muscle guys of the olympia today.

There's no secret bro...it's just genetics. Some guys have a tiny waist and hips and other guys like myself resemble a camel..lol.. Not much you can do to shrink your bone structure unfortunately.

You know, I have a tiny waist genetically. It is these damn love handles, they are the last thing to go...after the muscles. I could open 3 Canadian tire branches with the left side alone.

I'm in the same boat bro. I'm hoping after my diet is done, if i'm still having problems there i'll use some Dino Gel and see if it helps. Heard some good things about it for spot reduction.

Sergio Oliva. Probably late 60's, early 70's. Makes me think Arnold shouldn't have won a single Sandow. Apparently at the time even guys the size of Dave Draper thought he was from another planet.

Dino gets two thumbs from first hand experience. This is the only topical fat loss spot reduction product that ever worked for me. And I tried a lot, including some of the other offering from the same supplier and some more readily available products from companies such as Avant Labs.
I used to apply the gel 2x a day, in the morning on an empty stomach, 30 minutes before my cardio session and then wrap my waist with some plastic wrap, and then prior to my resistance training.
I don't recall ever seeing my love handles as small as they did when using Dino. My diet was a semi-clean one.

Awesome, thank you for that. That's exciting to hear.. wonder if it's as good around the outer chest etc. Worth a shot!!

I really like the backs on the modern freaks but the symmetry of the 60's / 70's is far more appealing too me.

Big Lou was the guy who inspired me to ask my parents to buy me some weights when I was a kid (and I got one of those concrete and plastic deals... and used it for years). Watching The British Bulldogs wrestle gave me the inspiration to finally join a real gym. I've always wanted that kind of thick and powerful build.

Must have just woke up, looks like shit.
That shithead stank up the thread :P . We'll there's too many bodies that I want to have, one more won't hurt. Stan Mcquay inspired me to hit the gym in college.
