The 'old school' bodybuilding photo thread

Al Beckles on the cover of Flex magazine in 1986, which makes him......how old ?

Check out that insane biceps peak !!!

He had some of the best biceps in bodybuilding history! Sure he was still competing in the Olympia when he was touching 60

These men were the best even compared to today's Body Builders. Nubret had the best symmetry, Zane the best ab vacuum & Beckles...who would not want to look like that-he was ageless!

Here's one probably not a lot of people have heard of, 'Norb' Schemansky. In powerlifting he was capable of a 600lb squat, 630lb DL, 440lb bench press and a mind-boggling 225lb barbell curl.

Schemansky was also the holder of an amazing 26 world records.

You mean Oly lifter. He was one of the great last American Oly lifters.

The added music is particularly shitty but just hit mute and it won't detract from the awesomeness on display here

Sergio's back to waist taper displayed here is outrageous
