effectivement et je me demende toujours jusqu'ou ça va encore aller...
je prefere les athletes du passé comme Zane que les athletes actuels, monstre de la masse!!!
le plus incroyable est aussi l'évolution des femmes culturistes et ça c'est allé beaucoup trop loin

Le physique féminin proportionnellement au masculin n'est pas allé plus loin que celui des hommes. Il est allé trop loin dans ce que nous pouvons supporter comme image de la femme. Les critères de jugement pour les femmes ne leurs permettent pas d'aller plus loin ou aussi vite plus loin que ceux des hommes.
Il ne faut pas s'affoler cependant et dans vingt ans nous rêverons devant des physiques comme les derniers Mr Olympia en se disant qu'au moins eux laissaient encore la place à l'espoir du possible !

Pour en revenir à Franck Zane son physique est harmonieux et équilibré. Opposé à Arnold Schwartzenegger il n'avait aucune chance parce que autrefois comme aujourd'hui la masse musculaire est plus importante que l'harmonie ou/et l'équilibre.

excellente ta photo tri.

c était la meilleure époque à mes yeux.

quand je vois kai greene par exemple, je trouve cela trop, ils n ont plus de tailles les gars.
même cutler je n aime pas.
moi les femmes je suis resté à laurence lallemand, pas plus haut. ^^

Oui, là c'etait le top !

d'accord avec toi Yves!!
Frank était beaucoup plus esthétique

Citation :

Totalement d'accord sur ce point. Je trouve les anciens athlètes beaucoup plus esthétique qu'aujourd'hui ou la masse a outrance est privilégiée.

c'est laid surtout quand tu vois les méga veine qui ressortent de partout. Il en faut mais de façon homogène sinon ça fait homme-machine limite monstre.

tu trouve Franck Zane laid ?!?

nan pas du tout, je parlais des body haut classé de maintenant.

ah ok . désolé

j'ai rajouté un interview en anglais, mais très intéressant:
http://www.muscleandstrength.com/articles/interview-with-mr-olympia-frank-zane.html

franchement pour moi ce gars a toujours été au dessus du lot
et si il y a un physique auquel je voudrais ressembler c'est bien le sien
la perfection esthétique dans l'esprit du plus pure culturisme
une vraie statue grecque

- dans l'interview j'adore sa conception de la diététique
"Muscle & Strength: It is fairly common in the modern era to see trainees engaging in endless cycles of bulking and cutting. Was bulking a common practice during your era? Did you eat X amount of calories above your maintenance level? If not, how did you eat in the off-season, and how many pounds over your competition weight did you allow yourself to get?

Frank Zane: I tried bulking up a few times and it was always a disaster. It was just a loss of about a year because you get back to what you looked like originally. What happened when I did that...Actually I did that for training for the 1972 professional Mr. Universe in London. I got up to about almost 210, huge thighs. I got pretty smooth. About 5 weeks before the contest I realized I had a lot of work to do, so I dropped about 10 pounds, came in around the mid 190s and won the show. But I noticed that I was not as defined as I was the year before because I bulked up. The year before I didn’t, so I learned from that.

And that was not the last time I made that mistake. I learned that really for me not to go above 5 percent over my competitive weight that meant staying under 200 or even in the lower 190s. I was not focused on body weight, I was more focused on what I looked like. You know what difference does the numbers make. You are not judged on that, you are judged on what you looked like. So everybody is weighing themselves and doing body fat analysis. I took photos. I took a lot of color slides. Tens of thousands, so that way I knew what I looked like. And so I had full control over that. Look, when I got on stage I knew what I looked like. Nobody else really did, because they did not do this. I was the only one that took photos.

Muscle & Strength: How did you adjust your diet when you needed to drop a few extra pounds? Did you do anything like carb cycling or dropping carbohydrates, or did you just cut back on food intake?

Frank Zane: I always ate a restricted carbohydrate diet. I would keep my carbohydrate intake lower than my protein intake. If I needed a boost, like if I was not getting pumped from my workout, I would eat more carbohydrates. Generally I ran in 4 day cycles. I would eat low carbs for 3 days and eat more on the 4th. I really did not go too much over 3000 calories when I trained. It has always been between two and three thousand calories a day. I really was not big on doing radical things. I think that is the biggest mistake, because it is going to affect you in ways you do not even know.

I always ate a restricted carb diet.You have to do things that have been tested and work for you, and you know how they work. You need to experiment ahead of time so you know. Do not do things at the last minute, that is stupid. If you are not looking really good the week before maybe you should not go into your show. Maybe you should change your plan. The big problem people have is they need to get feedback. What you do depends on what you look like. All of these techniques - carb cycling - all depend on what you look like. If you trained long enough and got in great shape you might not have to do that stuff. Maybe just a little. I cannot tell people how to do it. The best advice I can give people is to get feedback and adjust accordingly."

à 64 ans:

Bien conservé

c'est clair

64 ans c'est pas vieux de nos jours . on travaille(ra) encore a 64 ans (et c'est tant mieu)

quand je vois mon père à 67 ans ca me laisse bon espoir de durer.
énorme comme ils vieillissent les actifs!!!

le travail c'est la santé . j'espére que la retraite sera repoussé a 70 ans .

quelqu'un a vu cela de prêt ou de loin?

In this companion volume to Zane Body Training Manual, the nutritional side of the bodybuilding equation is explored. In HIGH DEF, you’ll learn everything necessary to develop a high degree of muscular definition: how to do weight training, abdominal work, aerobics, ab-aerobics, posing, tensing, stretching, what to eat, what not to eat, recipes, food supplements, eating for longevity, advice from medical professionals on pharmaceutical enhancement. This manual goes beyond building muscle, it is the final stage in perfecting the body, high definition.

HIGH DEF HANDBOOK is about how to look your very best by exercise and eating. It is not about how big you can get. You will discover that to look your best you probably have to lose weight.

It’s all about sensible training and eating—you are not asked to do the impossible.
