Arnold Schwarzenegger, a myth

[@bobibest89]

Just imagine how other competitors must have felt like standing next to him on stage. It must have been like trying to look manly next to Zeus himself.

I am 64 and at 15 I started working out between sports and I remember all those photos from around 1970 or so I would say.

[@ultimatepredator4695]

i will say only this..HE LOOKS AS A GOD

[@thomas997]

I've been lifting for the last 13 years, and I can say the following is true: (1) Supplements now are better than they were when Arnold was building. (2) Range of motion during any type of resistance workout will determine the overall shape/proportion of the body. (3) People who look at themselves in the mirror and note the areas that need improvement are the ones who get the best results. Arnold was a true artist and sculptor in his time. People are bigger now, but Arnold is proportional.

Arnold the King

Love this video. Perfekt for inspiration before you hit the gym!

I love this video. And the guy at 6:04. after Arnold does his 2 hand wave a fan does the same back lol love it.

[@ADMJCXNK97fan]

the BEST thing u did was put CONAN music in here!!!!!!!!!! i love it!!! thank you so much!!!! 5:25 looks awesome!!! they should make a statues like hat!!!

[@FutureArnoldIWish]

absolutley top class vid mate, i can remember when me and my dad used to watch the conan films, this song always stuck in my head... even when i went to gym i used to have it stuck in my head while i thought to myself ''someday ill be like arnold... someday.'' truely inspirational, long live king arnold! :)

[@Sharpeyjcs]

This man is a legend. His body is ridiculously defined and proportional. Greatest body builder of all time!

[@Possesssed666]

Always motivational to see a few new photos of the king at work, great vid

[@DowntownLAKid]

I feel the reason Franco and Arnold worked so good together is that there was no competition with each other (True Competition) these two were in seperate categories for bodybuilding

[@stuckinthecities]

I really like how you played the entire beginning of Conan the Barbarian audio for this vid...

[@horacrux]

ok i have just watched 5 videos of arnold training,and all of them have music that is to loud,so you cant even hear what he is saying

[@19Goose72]

I used to train to this soundtrack - awesome music to pump up to!!! Arnold - awesome check those peaks at 2.10 ! Those guys in this video ( zane, colombo , robinson ) were the pioneers of bodybuilding - what an awesome time it must have been ...

[@sebass2013]

you said it perfectly, Arnold had a small bone structure but a rather wide frame and when he was on season he weighed around 220 but had the illusion that he was 250.

[@H3RB4L1S3R]

I think the coolest thing about him is, He came to hollywood with $100, and became a legend.

[@user-tb2jy9lu3d]

@I0o Actually, if I remember correctly, he actually said himself that he took roids to help him during off season.

[@rikkr1307]

If it weren't for him pioneering and perfecting the Olympian physique where would bodybuilding be today? 🤔👍

[@BlackDillon]

I love that pic at 4:14. Unreal. And anyone who doubts Arnold's achievements, aesthetically he beats the shit out of ANY modern bodybuilder. Built, defined, not overly massive legs. Tapered, narrow waist. Etc, etc. Yes he took steroids. But he also worked his ass off to graft arguably the finest physique of all time, and use fame from that to become a movie star, politician and more. The man is a juggernaut in whatever he does, and you HAVE to respect that.

[@shimasamba]

When i was a kid i love arnold in pumping iron these photos are lefendary. He and lou were the first to make body building a art form and popular....

[@Artem_Shipov]

It's hard to imagine all the workouts he's gone through

[@sebytro]

Damn, I read it up and you're right.. I guess I always thought he was the real deal because I liked him as an actor and I sometimes saw him as a role model. Nonetheless, he made a huge impact on bodybuilding, how to lead a healthy lifestyle and how to reach the goals you set.

[@misterneckbreaker88]

i love this. i watch it soo many times, gets me focused for work out.

[@heroislegend]

@Hromovik If you can do more weight doesn't mean anything, its about how you can build your muscles. I see guys at the gym lifting extremely heavy weight but they don't have definition. Arnold was all about definition. He treated his body like it was a piece of art. He would work certain areas of his body to define it. Lifting extremely heavy weight doesn't make you a body builder, its how you represent it as a piece of art.

[@CruelSkies]

@Mrmoc7 . Firstly, it seems that searching for alternative views to arguments will benefit you more than me. . Secondly, in order to make progression in a discussion,I find it useful to deal with relevant points before taking another direction. You were asked an easily answered question to which a yes or a no followed by your alternative source would suffice . Thanks in advance!

[@StillRedStillArnie]

@thomas997 to (2) .... which range of motion do you advise? Go the full motion? Any special tips?

[@bonesawII]

@Turok9702 the steroid was invented in world war 2 as an medic to heal wounds and other tissues, they were never meant to build huge muscles. Anorld took them ofc but that doesnt take the creds away because he can train even more and harder.

[@christophedeparis]

Magnifique vidéo agrémentée d'une superbe musique qui colle parfaitement avec le MYTHE!

[@goodtrick]

perfect arms. perfect waistline in correlation to his upper body, chest, biceps, triceps. no bodybuilder today can match his perfect body.

[@BarclaysFAcup]

he honestly looks like the hulk in most of these pictures.

[@TheseOpenRoads]

Why was Arnold so (and still is) legendary? His physique is very good but there was a lot of good talent in his time, lots who could be right there and beat him. so why did he always win? What was his edge

[@adrienspawn]

I don't think anyone for a long long time will have a body like his. The training back then was a lot more natural than today.

[@xanthromera]

@Hunkola Surely you jest. There are 5'8" dudes competing now with arms bigger than Arnold's. Arthur Jones stated that he measured Arnold's arm at his peak size, left arm was 193/4" and right was 201/4" cold.

[@hcytkr]

i feel sorry for the other bodybuilders that lived in arnolds shadow

[@antpedroto]

Back when bodies had narrow waist lines. I hate the bloated abs of today's body builders. These guys did it right. And of these giants of body building no one did it better than Arnold. Not only as a competitor, but as a charismatic leader of the sport! One of a kind and my idol in all things. As he said, you can apply his teachings to do anything, be it in business or any other worthy pursuit.

[@Oceanborn1975]

LOL @ the grannys on 6:35! BTW,he was the standard in BB for decades. Though I´m a Lou Ferringo Fan, I respect what he´s done for and in bodybuilding!

[@hokagefuuton]

Finally I found this video after long time.

[@deadplay12]

@Lemooon7 He used steroids to maintain his muscles when he was on a diet to cut weight, not for muscle growth like most of the bodybuilders are using nowadays, so he wasnt abusing them in the "wrong" way.

[@NegotiableHemingway]

Great vid! Pumping iron was just outstanding! Worth watching if never seen before.

[@danchrisel]

This is what bodybuilding is all about. He (Arnold) is what defines bodybuilding.

[@heaney68]

yes ronnie is thicker and much more dense but what people forget is arnold is 6,2 tall and to pack that much muscle on his frame is not easy. if arnold was about now with all the gear available to present day bodybuilders you would have a monster on our hands . Can you imagine the size of his guns and chest .Personally give me arnolds look every time

[@stuckinthecities]

love the conan music...it's made an impression on me from a young age..

[@gtg356y]

@heroislegend I think the people you are referring to are called "powerlifters." it IS a type of lifting that focuses on functional strength not cosmetics. It is a different preference, no need to be high and mighty and talk it down...

[@Aleexandru]

@TrentSki80 The greatest feeling you can get in the gym or the most satisfying feeling you can get in the gym is pump.Let's say you train your biceps , blood is rushing to your muscles and that's because of the pump. *don't understand * can explode any minute.

[@setonas23]

[@kartikvenkat]

Look at all the torn benches, poor equipment, rusty dumbells and poorly lit and ventilated gyms he trained in. He didn't need top class 100 dollar a month gym memberships, spotless machines or air conditioning and he still trained 4 hours a day and was the best in the world. Keep that in mind the next time you feel your gym isn't "good enough".

IMO best bodybuilder ever, sure other guys are bigger but I just am yet to see another guy with as spectacular overall body as his. Arnie practically put it on the map. I have been in gym 4 years, i'm 23 and can only dream of putting in that much hard work and effort to acheive his results, of course with a litle vitamin S lol!!! music is from conan the barbarian soundtrack, although the first song is slightly different to the soundtrack version I have... weird..

[@war1980]

@Ja71178 "In those days you didn't have to deal with the black market. You could go to your physician and just say, 'Listen, I want to gain some weight, and I want to take something.' Then the physician would say, 'Do it six weeks before competition, then it will be safe.' And that's what you would do. The dosage that was taken then versus taken now is not even 10 percent. It's probably 5 percent."

@Ja71178 he admitted to taking steroids. but he wasn't using year round and took less than many guys nowadays who don't even compete.

[@massycori]

Arnold was number one in the world in body building(yes he got steroids but everyone does in Mr OLYMPIA competition and definitely is his choice) ,he became a superstar actor ,he got 2 university degree ,he bacame governor...i want to see superpredator where yu will go in your life .Please RESPECT

[@trashbash2001]

@superpredatorr i used roids one summer and absolutely loved it actually. Working out is hard enough so any help is appreciated. I put on 10 lbs in one month. I loved it, but the only draw back was that soon as i stopped taking them, and didnt work out as hard, i lost all the weight fast. It had nothing to do with being proud really. And the roids certainly didnt do the work for me. Thats a myth. I'm of natural now of course.

[@XizelSF]

Arnold even admitted using steroids. Steroids aren't as dangerous as people believe them to be. Like most drugs, use them right, they serve you right, the opposite also applies. Steroids are only illegal in the US, which also supports why they aren't as dangerous as they are believed to be.

[@woooweee]

Yea its about proportions, so many today are just over doing it with bloated body building, theres a difference between sculpting and just bloating a body.

[@hansneggs]

@heroislegend more weight does mean something. in fact it is very important. y are u comparing amount of weight lifted to definition. definition comes from diet. muscle density comes form heavy weights. i agree with ur last comment but not entirely. it doesnt matter what method u use. showing it on stage is where u represent it.

[@datruf]

@amoresai Maybe so, but back then, bodybuilding was not that popular. People were considered freaks being buff. Arnold brought bodybuilding into the mainstream and made it cool. Arnold is the mecca of bodybuilding hands down!!

[@marvelsgreatestfan]

@Solowizard he picked maria shriver because she was rich, famous, but most importantly, a member of the kennedy dynasty. arnie knew the best way to propell his acting carreer, popularity and political carrer was to marry someone with connections with the american goverment. you got to give arnie credit, he knew EXACTLY what to do in life to get ahead.

@MrWonkoSane thats right. and at that time everyone in bodybuilding was because they weren't illegal yet

[@ryan110110110]

The amount of work required to get muscles that big while while maintaining such ridiculously low body fat is just insane! But i guess thats why he was the best.

[@Turok9702]

@bonesawII again, i don't think they were invented yet to be used for bodybuilders i don't really study much about steroids so sorry if the info was incorrect

[@war1980]

@Ja71178 1996: "I used steroids. It was a risky thing to do, but I have no regrets. It was what I had to do to compete. The danger with steroids is overusage. I only did it before a difficult competition for two months, but not for a period of time that could harm me. And then afterward, it was over. I would stop. I have no health problems, no kidney damage or anything like that from using them." No he didnt take them year round, no they didnt make him the bodybuilding god he is.

@wolfensden The only reason why Arnold is smaller than Ronnie and Cutler is because there are new drugs. He's not any better at using/abusing, he just didn't have the oppertunity to get to the "ronnie-drugs".

[@user-tb2jy9lu3d]

@johnknight1981 Schwarzenegger has admitted to using performance-enhancing anabolic steroids while they were legal, writing in 1977 that "steroids were helpful to me in maintaining muscle size while on a strict diet in preparation for a contest. I did not use them for muscle growth, but rather for muscle maintenance when cutting up." He has called the drugs "tissue building." Source: Farrey, Tom. "Conan the Politician". ESPN.
