I do believe Lee and Arnold are the best to ever do it!! Perfect blend of mass, symmetry, and definition. Pros nowadays with the bubble guts and 25 in arms, too big too look good... my opinion.
Nah Arnold was not symmetric he was just the best ever at body posing. He’d eliminate disguise all his negatives and accentuate his positives. He used his great vacuum pose to hide his stomach width.
Who here remembers "Lee Haney's Workout" on ESPN? My training partner used to sneak into the Hilton lounge to watch it on their flat screen T.V. every (whatever) night it was on.
I grew up with Arnold thrust in my face, he had an unfair advantage in my life simply from Hollywood. Later when I paid more of a mature look into what bodybuilding was and what it takes to even compete at an Olympia level, it was Haney. I love Yates, Cutler, Zane. Haney was in my eyes the king of the mtn.
He actually retires extremely young compared to others. But after Haney the writing was on the walls for the ultra mass monsters with massive everything and shit symmetry.
Although I like dorian and felt like his mass was impressive… I’d have to agree. The influx of synthetic HGH, insulin, IGF, and whatever other peptides and weird stuff they added in the 90s and later on just absolutely ruined bodybuilding. Changed it from being impressive to, “wow, these guys are clearly on boatloads of drugs. This doesn’t resemble a natural human body in any way”
what a load of bs . Yes Lee Haney was great but real bodybuilding started early 90s . too many pros had the perfect physique too . I can name few . Kevin levrone .Theirry Pastel . Aaron baker . Shawn ray . Benaziza and many many more
In Haney’s era , you needed the physique and Presentation Skills. Ronnie was a horrible poser and would have lost that round which was 1/3 of the total score Every time. Haney was Masterful at Showcasing his Strengths.
The thing Lee had over every other single bodybuilder is his roundness and his shoulder to waist ratio TRY FINDING THAT TODAY! His waist to shoulder ratio was insane and his back was one of the best ever in bodybuilding period His biceps were however not so strong. But everything else was there especial back chest and shoulders and legs were excellent too. The later ones Cutler, Coleman, and the rest had thick large waist. Dorian waist was ok at the beginning then it went to shit too. But Lee ALWAYS came in sharp and the smallest waist to shoulder ratio for the prefect symmetry of upper body every time. He had the smallest waist with the biggest back upper body ever.
People do Yates row cuz they are lazy. I see it daily. They like going heavy bending over slightly and doing a row-shrug. Literally no one does classic barbell row.
@@analogcrunch4716 They move the bar maybe 4 inches into their lower abs while almost standing straight up! All it does is strain the lower back and rear traps.
This isn't quite the Mass Fuel video I remember, the one I actually have on VHS. The old Mass Fuel was an entire kit. It had a pre-workout protein shake, a post-workout shake, and the most GOD-AWFUL, ABYSMAL-TASTING protein bars that were the size of chalkboard erasers (imagine unsweetened baker's chocolate, mixed with sand or mud). There was also a manual to go with the video.
@@soulsergeant The Champion Nutrition bars were good, particularly the Superheavyweight Gainer Bar. If they had those to replace the Mass Fuel bars, the old Mass Fuel Kit would have been perfect.
So much philosophical reason in muscles. Really.I just lift weights and get massive. Get on with it weakling....just keep talking and I will keep growing bigger.

Everything was number 1; everything can’t be number 1. Sorry, I love Lee as a 8x Olympia champ, just hate he still says he was never on steroids. It’s an insult to one’s intelligence. Don’t get me wrong, he had an unbelievable physique.
@@soulsergeant that would be ok if he chose not to discuss his usage, it became illegal in 1990 so not discussing it is understandable, and frankly no one’s business. Fact is he does discuss it, and claims he never took any PED’s of any kind. Because he is still vocal about so many other things related to bodybuilding I think this ruins his credibility, it’s just my opinion and I am not a 8x Olympia winner. Thanks for responding
Що мається на увазі коли говорять про 4-5 сетів, це тільки робочі сети чи розминка також? Ли казав відпочивати між підходами 30-45 секунд у іншому відео.
Flex Wheeler had never good symmetry. He has biggest bubble gut even than Ronnie bit he masked it. Furthermore he has synthol everywhere. Dude wasn't neither big nor aesthetic. Lee Haney steamroll him.
@@soulsergeant From personal experience I don't advise this split to anyone. The concept is good but in practice it is not. It is far more beneficial to train major muscle groups on separate days with secondary muscle groups.
You never see videos of this guy throwing heavy weight around. He probably trained heavy with low reps and lower form, but he never put that shit out to warp the minds of beginners. Yates and Coleman destroyed the sport.
@@soulsergeant I get the impression he did barbell rows in a very explosive, checkmark-like fashion, meaning he didn't need to use as much weight to stimulate the faster twitch fibers in the back, along the lines suggested by Fred Hatfield. I find his back training especially interesting because he seemed to have a unique way of doing basic exercises and developed one of the best backs of all time without a remarkable amount of weight or injury. Would really like to understand it better.
@@soulsergeant I did , in the 1985 Olympia ( i'm a 55 year old Belgian ) and he was very aesthetic for his size , but i found his arms and legs not to be in complete proprtion to his torso. His torso was BIG though.
It’s crazy to me that there just ppl out there that make yt channels to post old videos such as these like there really is an audience for anything on the internet
I used his routines and diets to build my physique and I paid him for personal training. He trained with basic exercises and built a Totalee Awesome Physique.
@@soulsergeant that's wild. I do twice the training and feel like I'm not pushing hard enough at times. But I have gotten good results from much less training as well.
Depends on individual's shoulder mobility and arm length. These guys are genetically gifted and of course have stronger, more resilient joints and ligaments something no gear can provide. But there are plenty of alternative to these exercises. For shoulders cables can be replaced with free weights. Again Lee is a great trainer and understands his sport very well but a physical trainer is always your best bet for strength training, everyone is built different and can have certain shortcomings. ✌️
Lee Haney the Mr O with the best balance between mass and aesthetics.

???? He went to Hollywood he wsnt born there wut are you talking about
Awesome video! Smart training routine. This is the reason behind his longevity in bodybuilding

Fantastic thank you for posting.
The last of the true Olympia's.... The last who wore it well before Bloaty Building took place!

So you forgot about flex wheeler?
His legs were not a strong point either. They were ok , but nothing more than that , especially compared to his torso.
The true GOAT
Lee Harney quite low profile but he was 8 times Mr.O. He was a Legend.
@KauaiPoundahs exactly
Lee: 4 to 5 reps MAXIMUM
Also Lee: does 7+ reps 😂
These guys be lying when they say 4 sets per exercise...
@@griffithstifler5027 exactly
No he said 4 to five sets maximum lol
@@griffithstifler5027what’s wrong with 4 sets lol
Nothing
See everyone, that's how you do bentover barbell rows and barbell bench press.
People do Yates row cuz they are lazy. I see it daily. They like going heavy bending over slightly and doing a row-shrug. Literally no one does classic barbell row.
@@analogcrunch4716 They move the bar maybe 4 inches into their lower abs while almost standing straight up! All it does is strain the lower back and rear traps.
@@ironray123I would argue the classic barbell row is harder on the lower back bc the leverage is way harder. I do rows both ways.
I wish this guy would be my trainer but this will have to do.
He does fitness consulting and trains. You can contact him through his website
Lee is the truth!!

Yeah the bars back then were gross. Amino fuel bar and mass fuel bar
@@soulsergeant The Champion Nutrition bars were good, particularly the Superheavyweight Gainer Bar. If they had those to replace the Mass Fuel bars, the old Mass Fuel Kit would have been perfect.
Arnold had no legs
@@orlandotruitt5997 had no brains.
Yeah, I remember at the beginning Lee was presenting the complete Mass Fuel Set, and then the work Out began.
His style is sort of like Serge Nubret’s, low weight but high mind to muscle connection
Low weight? He did 6 to 8 reps that's heavy for him.
I remember thinking the same..but then I ran across some pics of him in his younger days...Haney was strong
Lee said he benched 500 one time just to see what it felt like. But as it shows in the video, 405 was a heavy, top-end set for him.
你现在所做的是改变现状的关键。It's what you do right now that makes a difference.
积累跬步，立于现实，改变未来。

My torn bicept won't allow me to do rows 😭😭😭
Wait so in this program u train 3 days then rest 1 and then repeat is that it?
Yes
@@soulsergeant Thx for answer! But for low long to do this program like that?
He is a great bodybuilder, but not everything he shows in this video is right.
For the equipment and exercise science available at the time he was pretty darned good.
Flex wheeler had great symmetry as well. Should've been crowned. But, like the earlier comment. They want a whole bunch of mass. Not a great physique.
Flex Wheeler had never good symmetry. He has biggest bubble gut even than Ronnie bit he masked it. Furthermore he has synthol everywhere. Dude wasn't neither big nor aesthetic. Lee Haney steamroll him.
@@dlcrafter2358 By some glasses , and some honesty while you're at it.

Big body
"DA Pectorial mussels".
Why?
Why does the gym floor look carpeted?
Gyms used carpet in 1991 when the video was produced
@@soulsergeant Not all gyms did As I would know.
Great bodybuilder. Great man but Don’t stand on a box for bent over row. No point. You never go that low without rounding your back.
Second
You never see videos of this guy throwing heavy weight around. He probably trained heavy with low reps and lower form, but he never put that shit out to warp the minds of beginners. Yates and Coleman destroyed the sport.
This is the weight he used all the time. He never maxed out. He benched 350, squatted no more than 315 , Barbell rowed 185 and no Deadlifting
@@soulsergeant I get the impression he did barbell rows in a very explosive, checkmark-like fashion, meaning he didn't need to use as much weight to stimulate the faster twitch fibers in the back, along the lines suggested by Fred Hatfield.

First...? 🙄
Is this him after he retired? 1991
It was filmed 6 months before he retired
@@soulsergeant ooh .ok I was wondering,thanks
Champ didn't do deep squats at all.
After Arnold Lee is second best
After them then Big Ronnie Coleman
Sergio Oliva was the best, no one could match his differential, that trimmed waistline coupled with superb musculature
Lee had a great body but I just didn’t find his body very impressive.
If you saw him in person as I did you would have been awe struck
@@soulsergeant I don’t disagree! I have a lot of respect for him and how much information he gives out.

tenderness in the knees.......go see a massage therapist.
Lee: "The heavy Barbell Bench Press is the best way I know of to rip your pec tendon right off the bone. They are a staple in my routine!"
I recommend that you bench press more often then
Technique, consistency, small steps in increasing weight.
Lee is the GOAT, not ronnie or Arnold
It’s crazy to me that there just ppl out there that make yt channels to post old videos such as these like there really is an audience for anything on the internet

Damn got us with the cookie cutter routine...guess it would be foolish to broadcast his actual training that supported his career being #1.

@@soulsergeant that's wild. I do twice the training and feel like I'm not pushing hard enough at times. But I have gotten good results from much less training as well.
upright rows are bad for the shoulders and behind the back military press is a no no also. Terrible for the shoulders
Btn press is fine
