Best Top 8 Arms In Bodybuilding History

Who has/had the best arms of all time in Bodybuilding History? The easy answer would be Arnold? But not so fast Arnold may have had the best biceps ever but his forearms and triceps lagged in comparison. Hard to decide with so many greats - here are my choices for the top eight guys of all time, remember the list only includes guys with total arms development means biceps, triceps, brachialis and forearms.The 8. Marko Savolainen Marko Savolainen "Supermass" is a Finnish professional heavy-weight IFBB bodybuilder, hit the scene like a meteor in the late 90s, but quickly burnt out. "What I would like to bring from the ‘90s bodybuilding to this day is the hardness of the muscles that guys back then had. The best example of this is Dorian Yates. These days guys are bigger but a little bit smoother or puffy looking, especially on some body parts like arms and shoulders. But I think there’s a reason for that." <img width="150" height="150" src="" class="attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail lazyload" alt="" decoding="async" data-src="https://fitnessvolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Marko-Savolainen5-150x150.jpg" data-sizes="auto" data-srcset="https://fitnessvolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Marko-Savolainen5-150x150.jpg 150w, https://fitnessvolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Marko-Savolainen5-300x300.jpg 300w, https://fitnessvolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Marko-Savolainen5-420x420.jpg 420w, https://fitnessvolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Marko-Savolainen5.jpg 640w" data-expand="700" /> Continued on the next page... 7. Paul Dillett Paul Dillett a retired Canadian IFBB professional bodybuilder. "I like using a rope instead of a handle for triceps movements. The rope pushdown is more of an isolation movement than a mass builder, because you can twist your arms out away from your body at the bottom. You're not able to go as heavy with a rope as with a handle, but you get the full muscle-shaping and separating benefits." - Paul Dillett Paul Dillett Paul Dillett Paul Dillett Paul Dillett Paul Dillett Paul Dillett Paul Dillett Continued on the next page... 6. Flex Wheeler Kenneth Wheeler "Flex" is retired American IFBB professional bodybuilder. He won the Arnold Classic record 5 times. Arnold described once as one of the greatest bodybuilders he had ever seen. "The biceps are relatively small muscles, and it shouldn't take much work to exhaust them if you're training them hard. I do no more than 10 sets once per week, but if I push every set to failure, that's the perfect amount to keep my arms consistently growing without overtraining."

"Personally, I like one hand preacher curls with dumbbells. You don’t have to do 100 pound dumbbells to get a burn. Heck I can do 35- 45 dumbbells and get something out of it. It’s also great for guys that travel. It’s the one piece of equipment that most hotels always have." <img width="150" height="150" src="" class="attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail lazyload" alt="" decoding="async" data-src="https://fitnessvolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Phil-Heath1-150x150.jpg" data-sizes="auto" data-srcset="https://fitnessvolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Phil-Heath1-150x150.jpg 150w, https://fitnessvolt.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Phil-Heath1-75x75.jpg 75w" data-expand="700" /> Continued on the next page... 4.
