| Back in the day, when bodybuilders tried to build bodies like Greek gods and not mutant aliens. They used a formula to give an idea of good proportions ,of course it had to be individualy adjusted.
From memory it went something like this.
Neck a little bigger than flexed arm, arm a little bigger than calf, thigh 1.5 times calf.
Now if I could just remember what chest was relative to thigh think it was 1.875 or something like that.
If you don't have these proporions, don't worry too much most don't.
It was only to give an idea of what bodyparts may be laging for the oldtime bodybuilders anyway.
Personaly I like some of the performance type ideas presented earlier. Takinng that line decathletes have the ideal body. |
