I know this is way late, but my reply requires a short back story: I just started working nights in the ICU and I'm still adapting to the schedule, so I'm kind of loopy. When I read "if I had to look like one bodybuilder...", I got this mental image of someone forcing you to look like a Golden Era bodybuilder, like holding a gun to your head or something.
i lived and trained in Spain during the late 70's, Serge was the Pres of WABBA at the time,.We trained like him. We wanted to be like him. He is an international class bodybuilder 1 of 3, the other 2 being Sergio and Arnold.
You have done a great service by highlighting the outstanding physiques from decades ago. Always thought Serge's Pecs were the equal to Arnold and Franco's superlative chest developement. Totally phenomenal shape/lines... a bigger Frank Zane. Keep up with the videos. Your passion and detail to Champs from long ago, is really appreciated.
Love this series on Serge Nubret. I’ve been a fan of his since Pumping Iron! I love how the notes read stay away from heavy poundage yet the pics show him benching 4 plates! Thanks for the great investigative reporting
Everyone steps it up when the cameras are rolling, natural human behavior :D Serge's weights were incredibly low (in relation to his strength and size). There are other photos of him in his prime barbell skull crushing with like 35 pounds
Thanks for doing this series on the legendary Serge. Hopefully people will learn alot from this. In regards to questions on Serge's death: - He posted on his thread on bodybuilding.com that he felt his life was in danger and possibly one of his children may be involved/culprit. His comments were disturbing and members contacted the french police when Serge stopped posting. He was later found in his house unconscious. He spent 2 years in a coma, he kept fighting but sadly in April of 2011 his body gave up. Shockingly the police took no real action and the killer was never found. He was a class act, posting for years and years, helping everyone with their physique goal. His legacy will live on.
I read all of that back when it happened. Another version is Serge was trying to make a comeback at age 70 and may have gotten in over his head with the roids. Either way it was a sad day for bodybuilding. He was my all time favorite followed by Lee Haney.
@@korgtritonextreme100 The reg flag was when doctors diagnosed a 'hypoglycemic coma' did Serge look diabetic?? he was in the shape of life at 70!! it was poison by a bitter family member, awful, scandalous, evil.
@Nova correct, it was Joe Weider, he said he lost 12 lbs, and went off the diet for i cant remember what it was 8 days or so and Arnold was coaxed into doing the film after a previous film which he had to be lighter for so supposedly Arnold wasnt at his peak either but to people who never knw anything about bodybuilding they both looked amazing in pumping Iron but Serge was past his prime and got screwed over and was off a diet and Arnold was underweight for the movie he had to be 210 for. so he regained only 15lbs since he didnt have enough time to prep. also since this is a Serge Nubret video i'll mention he didnt sign the pumping Iron contract which is why he didnt get a feature in it, and Steve Michalik was in a car accident and he 100% would of stole the show, especially if they had showed his training. Serge had done films in Paris so wanted more from Charles Gaines and George Butler but they couldnt do it, they ran out of money but that all turned around when someone had the bright idea of bringing ed Corney and Frank Zane to a art museum on a rotating platform to do posing. and they ended up making so much money they had to throw it on the floor as it didnt even fit in the bags they had. so Serge would of missed out due to lack of patience and vision of where it was going
Seriously? I don't know what you were looking at, but if you look at the 1975 Olympia, you can see that Arnold had better legs and a better back. Nubret had a great chest, shoulders, and arms--pretty much the equal of Arnold's, and I'd give him abs over Arnold any day of the week--but his legs were somewhat subpar, and his back, while wide, didn't have a great deal of detail. Sorry, while politics might have played a part in S. Africa, in terms of body parts, the judges called it correctly. Ironically, while the filmmakers of Pumping Iron wanted to highlight the rivalry between Ferrigno and Arnold, Nubret finished second in the over 200-pound class.
Just a phenomenal physique on this guy he had full development in every muscle on his body, these Golden Era guys bring back memories of my beginning days with the iron when I first got started ,these are the guys that left an impression on me as a 15 &16 year old teenager, imagine opening up the bodybuilding magazines and seeng all these Golden Era guys for the first time, that gave me a lot motivation for training back in those days.
Surge had one of the best physiques in bodybuilding, he wasn't overly huge like today's bodybuilders. And he certainly had one of the best chests. From looking at pictures of Surge when he was younger, you can tell he had great genetics to build his chest as he did. I trained natural all my life and I had a big chest by the time I was 16, bench pressing 300 at a body weight of 135 pounds.
I disagree, Arnod had a more impressive physique on stage and was bigger everywhere but still retained beautiful lines. Serge was awesome no doubt but standing right next to The Oak, I'll give it to Arnold.
Who wouldn`t want to look as good as the great Nubret..but following his routines won`t help - genetics,muscle insertions and Serge had his favorite steroids as well.Worth trying his routines for a change and indeed i`m going for a chest/triceps workout this morning and am reminded of concentrating on the movement and contraction because of his approach.Will also do higher reps and neck press and just see what sort of deeper pain i have tomorrow(hopefully). Peace.
Thank you for the great content and all your efforts! Serge and Zane are my two favorite bodybuilders of all time. The lines, shape, conditioning and esthetics are unmatched, true God like statues. Btw, what is the music you use at the beginning of your videos? Love it!
serge had excellent upper body one of the very best his abs/mid section/shoulders/trapes chest/back/arms were unbelievable roids just add size ur muscle insertions muscle belly stay same peace
I was looking at a Video the other day by Nash Jocic and in it he said he trained with Serge Nubret in his Gym in Paris and Serge did 40 sets of Bench pressing in 45 mins nothing else just Bench pressing continuously ,he did 12 reps and stopped for a short break of 30 seconds and kept on pumping and on another day he trained his Arms and did the same thing for 45 mins going from Cable curls supersetting them with push downs . He told Jocic that the muscle got bigger when it was pumped and all of the Amino Acids flushed the muscle ,his methods went against the norm for training where by people said the muscle grew when resting well he was the proof that his method did work and who could argue . Another good vid
igor stein, I remember reading about this type of training and i experimented with it a little bit myself ,they used to call it a blitz method of training where you mostly focus on one body part and just do basically set after set of a particular exercise with brief rest periods for several hours or sometimes all day long to try and bring up a lagging body part.
Still one of the best body's of all time,I still believe he should have won they robbed him at that competition u should know which one,,he was a real unique in muscle built like a God
Great physique, but if I had one tiny not even criticism just observation, I think his outside quad was short which makes his leg look slight obove the knee. Agreed though the man is a legend.
Surge Nubret's physic was built on three factors- 1) Genetics 2)will power/ dedication 3)Steroids All three was needed to create such a figure take away one of those factors and you simply wouldn't get the same physic.
Sounds like the doctor was in on the conspiracy along with the family. I ordered and received Serge's workout video along with his hand written note and signature shortly before he died. I treasure both to this day!
Serge Nubret's pecs were like two massive plates of armour. Perfect in symmetry, size, balance, simply perfection. Here is what I am convinced of 100%, if Charles Gaines had NOT been filming the 1975 Mr Olympia contest for the film Pumping Iron, and had the entire film not focused COMPLETELY on Arnold [remember almost every sentence even Lou Ferrigno utters in the movie contains Arnolds name too!] and making it obvious he was going to win before they ever got to South Africa simply due to the focus, and had it not been that the IFBB [Weider] had been paid a shit load to do the movie....if you remove those factors and bring it down to a competition of ANY OTHER YEAR... Arnold did not win, nowhere near. Remove the Pumping Iron cameras and Arnold would NOT have won and Serge Nubret would have smoked him to become Mr O. They say 1980 was the most rigged? Get real. [Oh and funnily enough, speaking of 1980 the year Arnold returned completely out of shape in Sydney and won a contest he was far from the best bodybuilder on stage at.....just happened to be being filmed by Charles Gaines as 'The Comeback'! ] NO DOUBT IN MY MIND SERGE NUBRET WAS ROBBED IN 75 DUE TO THE MOVIE.
A big reason why Frank Zane didn't want to be part of the movie! Frank called it "Pumping Arnold!" Danny Padilla wasn't allowed to compete either and be part of the Olympia. He probably would have beaten at least Franco and the Franco segment would not have worked!
It would be nice to see what these guys would have looked like, doing the same routine, but without being on gear. That being said, a man without gear probably wouldnt be able to do these kinds of numbers
A godly physique no question about it. This number of sets is only for highly advanced guys that have done it for decades. So don't try this at home For a guy my age, 60, Leroy Colbert's advice is the Golden Way.
Looks better than today's bodybuilders no disrespect 2the modern bodybuilders but out of a 100 people 80 will say they will rather look like Nubret than 2days bodybuilders even doe his legs weren't that big but his whole body flows better than anybody today n looks healthier....
If he had a thicker,wider back,larger rib cage, and much better legs he might have stood a chance against Arnold Schwarzenegger. He just wasn't good enough.
@@GoldenEraBookworm A new series with Serge Nubret would be a great ideea...just saying haha (I really hope that would be another one.Series with aesthetic phisiques like Steve Reeves,Frank Zane,Serge Nubret are THE BEST)
Many people doesnt know that he did these sets of 12-25 reps to failure every set without exception, thats why he could benchpress 225kg when he only did 70-100kg for 12-25 reps.. failure was a key to increasing his strength. He was improving not only his endurance but his strength too by going to the failure each set, because during failure and few reps before failure you activate your fast twitch fibers of your muscles and before it you activate your slow twitch fibers of your muscles so he was improving both his endurance and his strength :D
If you look at the official scorecards from the 1972 Olympia, you see that Serge actually received TWO first place votes to Olivas one and that the margin of diference between him and Oliva for second overall was only two points. If anything, in my opinion, with those two first place votes, Nubret, not Oliva, actually would have been the one to have a claim he deserved the win.
After they told him he couldn't compete. He quit working out before the 75 olympia for a week or 2 and lost 10lbs of muscle. Then at the last minute joe "JOTO" Wieder decided he could compete. SMH
Im a big fan of oldschool training but what I have found as natural if you do this kind of of huge volume with moderate weight you’ll make very little progress. What you said at the beginning, the guy was strong non the less!! So rather training with high volume and moderate weight you have to get strong first I wish somebody gave me this advice earlier
It's just Information, I know Arnold and all the golden era Bodybuilders, Serge, Franco, Frank Zane etc took roids, I still am fascinated by their insane Training methods
If I had to look like one bodybuilder from the Golden era it would definitely be Serge.
HELL YEAH!

Serge was one of the best ever! He got robbed on so many contests! Awesome bodybuilder!
Serge Nubret is the GOAT in my opinion.

Serge Nubret is like a perfect statue. Fantastic bodybuilder.
If he simply stands also is like a bodybuilding pose. Superb.
So TRUE...He was a walking Statue

His Physique Resembles ARNOLD A lot Especially his Side Chest
TRUE
I agree
I'm natural and I do up to 20 sets per bodypart every other day full body. Been training 20 years tho, I didn't start out with that much volume.
His physique was better than Arnold, Arnold beat him in his final contest but he was already 40 by then and still placed 3rd
Serge was AWESOME

I totally agree Serge had Excellent genetics deserves 1976, 1977, 1978 mr.olympia 💪💪💯
One thing i read is that when doing 8 sets with 30 seconds rest is that the first 4 were controlled the last 4 were explosive
He took a WIDE grip on that 405!

Serge probably should have won the Olympia against Arnold but the politics of the day wouldnt allow it.

@Carlos Spicy Weiner serge was told he couldnt compete so he didnt train for the weeks leading to the show
Arnold has a better frame/v taper, which mattered a lot more back then.
if the politics wouldnt allow it he wouldnt have won 2nd

Great physique, but if I had one tiny not even criticism just observation, I think his outside quad was short which makes his leg look slight obove the knee.
Agreed though the man is a legend.
Him and Sergio Oliva..... a league of their own......
30 sets for bench press and 10 sets for auxiliaries totaling 60 sets, or 30 sets in total of all chest exercises ??
Good question
Total 30
The bronze and golden era physiques were the most natural and masculine in my opinion
Very informative stuff #gains
Serge actually has shoulder striations unlike the puffy, smooth shoulders of today
Surge Nubret's physic was built on three factors-
1) Genetics
2)will power/ dedication
3)Steroids
All three was needed to create such a figure take away one of those factors and you simply wouldn't get the same physic.

Body similar to Arnold in some photos. Actually a tanned Arnold a little bit smaller and lighter but with even better abs.

What's the difference between bench press and neck press?
Neck.press was described by Vince Gironda, i don't recommend it though...it's extremely dangerous
High reps 👍
He should have won the 1975 Mr. Olympia.
Wow....😯
Many people doesnt know that he did these sets of 12-25 reps to failure every set without exception, thats why he could benchpress 225kg when he only did 70-100kg for 12-25 reps.. failure was a key to increasing his strength.

Choose moderate wieght , thought yay there's hope,then see serge with 4 plates either side for bench :(
Why golden era athletics usually press with barbells? Is it because dumbells aren't heavy enough at that time?
Great video man. Do you know if silver and Golden Era bodybuilders knew to carb up before the show? I have never seen anyone talking about that
No, they just ate lots of normal food
Is this serge nubret’s pre competetion routine or it was his basic routine for mass building
So 10sets incline or benche press, 10 sets fly's and 10 setts cable cross overs 10 sets pull overs? Or 30 sets for each exersize?
If you look at the official scorecards from the 1972 Olympia, you see that Serge actually received TWO first place votes to Olivas one and that the margin of diference between him and Oliva for second overall was only two points. If anything, in my opinion, with those two first place votes, Nubret, not Oliva, actually would have been the one to have a claim he deserved the win.
Close competition
Sadly I just see this video now. I'd like to know what is moderate weights to Serge. Is 60% of his Maximum Repetition? Some like that?
After they told him he couldn't compete. He quit working out before the 75 olympia for a week or 2 and lost 10lbs of muscle. Then at the last minute joe "JOTO" Wieder decided he could compete. SMH
He was better than Arnold 1975 Mr Olimpia, It Was Race !!!
So with this kind of volume.. I'm assuming he only worked each body part once a week?
twice a week
Carl Lewis
Great video and he was my all time favorite!!! Joe wieder saw him as a threat to his golden boy Arnold, so he cheated him!!!!
I heard he was in a coma for the last 2 years of his life. What did he die of?
fact
Obviously nobody here seen Sergio Olivia lol
Hey bro is there any way to increase height in golden era style
Not that I know of
Rip rotator cuff..
these dudes needa learn from Dorian
250 pound and 400 pound ? i suck at 14 kgs 2 sec hold
Only pench press 30 sets??
Or you mean whole exercises.?
3 chest exercices including bench press
Serge is better than Arnold in my opinion of course

30 sets per exercise or 30 sets workout total?
3 exercices
30 sets total
10 sets which exercise
He was known for doing 42X25 yes 42 set of 25 reps.
What's his steroids intake?
just tried 10 sets....im dying..how the hell do u do 30 sets!asdghjk@#!?
