>“Nothing, in my opinion, is better than the use of the dumb-bell, for developing the whole system, particularly if it is used intelligently, and with a knowledge of the location and functions of the muscles.”
– Eugen Sandow
Barbell cucks btfo.
He even talks about mind muscle connection in his book
/fit/ BLOWN the fuck out
i dunno why people praise him. he was most likely a cokehead. cocaine lets a person eat like an obese while retaining lean body mass and burning fat at the same time. he looks exacrtly how you would expect a cokehead who trains religiously and eats like a pig to look. now days people do clenbuterol instead it works better.

Have you even done cocaine or known people who do cocaine you fucking virgin
>>41995125
He pretty much founded bodybuilding and was a bigger fitness icon than Arnold.
How do I achieve this mode with dumbbells?

>cocaine lets a person eat like an obese while retaining lean body mass and burning fat at the same time.
You have no idea what the fuck you're talking about.
>>41995169
a long time ago yup. i used to eat like a whale and get drunk as fuck every night. never got fat. there's a high incidence of obesity after quitting cocaine use. they thought it was due to appetite supression but they're finding people eat just as much on cocaine and that cocaine users retain lbm and burn fat. basically it's like clen but more expensive, less effective and just as if not worse for you.

He intentionally develop his body to look aesthetic like a Greek/Roman statue.
>>41995392

>>41995062
sandow was a loser tho
>>41995187
>was a bigger fitness icon than Arnold.
Sure, he was more popular than Arnold when Arnold was a baby.
He btfo sandow by the time he was 18
lol
>>41997175
average height in 1900 was 10cm less than today though
>>41995062
Sandow looks good, but he's also standing in perfect lighting - if you look through a CBT thread here or at any gym in america, you will find a whole lot of guys who look just as good or much better in the same favorable lighting
today's training methods are objectively superior to the dumb meme shit they did circa 19-whogivesashit and only contrarian goofs would think otherwise
>>41997299
agreed but his contribution of lifting is significant and it would be plain stupidity to deny that
>>41997207
Average height today is 5'9.
>>41997131
Sandow was much bigger fitness icon than Arnold.
>>41997488
Sandow fanbois are delusional. 99/100 people have no idea who he is.
>>41997521
Because Arnold is more recent obviously?
But I don't think you realise how huge Sandow was in the Victorian era.
>>41995125
Now this is a shitpost
>>41997299
>if you look through a CBT thread here or at any gym in america, you will find a whole lot of guys who look just as good or much better in the same favorable lighting
The difference is that they're all roided while Sandow was natty.
>>41995062
reminder that he drank bull piss for testosterone
>>41995062
>powerlifter
>competition is literally centered around 3 barbell lifts
Hurr if you use barbells you're retarded
>>41997547
bullshit, nothing about sandow's physique requires roids to attain
low bodyfat and lighting makes a gigantic difference
