Little? Ok, in a way Arnold looks little compared to the people today, but they train better and they were more proportion evenly and natural

That was interesting. How about the guy who was picking his nose while Arnold was posing in the mirror? Or the fat guy and Lou gym

The small guys physique is what i should have once i reduce some of the Body fat to reach 14% body fat. His delts and triceps are similiar to mine and his biceps are also small just like mine. This guy might be my ideal form, if i make it to 14% body fat

Nick..have you done a video on pain and gain and John Carl Mese? I knew Mese from his days as a bodybuilding judge and he was SUCH a nice man..hate that people don't know about the good things he did.

In 1977 North Carolina was not a Mecca for body building. 41 years later, it's still not a Mecca for body building. It is a poster child of sorts. A poster child for the on going obesity problem in America and how the South is leading the country.

I have known Wes Brown since 1980. You will never find a better human being than this man. In the 80's his physique improved immensely and he competed in several competitions. You would not call him a "little guy". He was also strong as an ox. I'm proud he has been my friend most of my life. When he operated Browns Gym, it was second to none. Nick, you should interview him. I can guarantee you he has several good stories about hanging out with Arnold in California!
