Ideal Physique?

[rockstarjacked]

I always love hearing other guys' idea of an ideal male physique... For me, it lies somewhere between Frank Zane and Mike Mentzer - a combo of symmetry, leanness/vascularity, density, and size. I have friends who simply think Arnold is the ideal physique, which is tough to argue, he's a beast, but even Arnold had flaws imo. Many guys think the ideal physique is technical like x-height, y-weight, z-bodyfat. Obviously no one's opinion can really be right or wrong with this. I'm curious of my fellow PP / SS guys' opinions. Pictures are encouraged!

indeed, the super heavies of today are too damn big. nice, but dysfunctional. i need to be able to still move, scratch my butt, hopefully spar every now and then.

i might cross into BB next year, but i'll stick with HWs... i think my height won't be an issue, we shall see

I don't follow today's bodybuilding competitions. I will find out who won what but that's as much as I care about the competitions now days. I don't think the competitors are judged properly anymore. Seems now to be more of a competition of size (hormones and peptides by the truckload) than it is about a good looking body in my opinion. But many will disagree i'm sure. Let's get some feedback. Come one come all, what's the best male physique??

Flex was def one of the most genetically gifted bb's ever. No fukin doubt. Not even Phil heath's muscle have the fullness and roundness that flex had. I'd say ideal would def be Zane, with about 25 more lbs. not too big, not too small. Or maybe like arnold with a lil less size. In terms of ideal physique that I'd personally wanna have, that is. In terms of pro bodybuilding, Arnold's physique is dam high on the list of the ideal IFBB physique IMO.

Hmmm, you know looking at that pic of Zane, I'm not that far off from him (insert flames here)
