However, without any functional strength. He could do well in short range of motion lifts where his short legs and short arms had to move the weight in a very small range. However, he got destroyed in the 1977 Strongest Man because it tests functional strength such as, carrying big, odd shaped heavy objects and running or doing repetitions with it. In fact, Ferrigno destroyed him in the car lift despite not being able to deadlift as much. Franco was eliminated early in the car lift since he could not really lift a car (the Pumping Iron lifts were simply bouncing the car up and down so that the shocks give extra boost to get the tires off the ground for a split second).

You can watch the old strong man competitions. Ferrigno competed in the very first Wsm and finished 2nd place! --Loosing in a 1 on 1 tug of war final event to a much heavier man. Had the last event been based on strength and not so much on who weighed most, Ferrigno probably would have placed 1st.

KLRGT500KR Lol at "functional" strength. Just as having shorter arms is an advantage for lifts like the bench press, being tall is a huge advantage for strongman. The leverages are simply better. That snd taller guys will simply weigh more, another big advantage.

Overhead Press is an excellent exercise if you do it standing because it works your core and also hits biceps and triceps alongside the shoulders (lowering the weight works the biceps as the arm bends). I don't do very high reps though as you can hurt your neck going very heavy
But the reason that he was so much more famous than the other lifters of that era was that he could deliver a joke or a line on cue to perfection. Decades later now and you could totally kill 5 or 10 minutes at a boring party with just imitating Arnold movie lines. His performances were memorable. So in addition to looking the part, he could actually play the part as well. This is not to disrespect other lifters, who yes may have been more impressive in their actual feats of strength, but there's a reason Arnold is the most recognized bodybuilder ever in history by the public and it isn't because of the numbers on the plates.

Exactly, I hate to back this up with the astrology shit and taking this to some other periphery but Arnold being a Leo, was an all out extrovert and had that charismatic flair and some sense of pride within himself in case people haven't noted yet, otherwise there are people who have lifted way more than that but never had this much of a recognition, these traits of Arnold actually got him into the politics as well
Much respect to Arnold Schwarzenegger. He has kept me motivated to keep up with my training in the gym. Of course I can't lift near what he did in his prime, due to a recent hernia repair I had done. Plus a bad right shoulder. Thanks for uploading this video

Q. How strong Arnold really was? Ans. REALLY STRONG.
Really good video, love learning about the old school!
On the heavy curls with long arms, you mention that the bar has farther to travel. True. But the real disadvantage of long arms is the greater leverage the weight has against the long-armed person's muscle. This is why short-armed guys tend to be much better at pull-ups. Also, strength only increases by a square factor while mass increases as a cube factor as a person's size goes up. This is why an ant can lift many, many times its body weight, but humans cannot. So, it's interesting to see that guys can be about 25% bigger, while only seeing about a 7% strength advantage overall and, sometimes, might even be weaker on some exercises.

mate thanks as others have said for weight conversion!
Excellent video, thanks
Anyone who says Arnold was never over 6ft. has not clue what they are talking about. Vince Basille (a stand up honest guy who is respected in the bodybuilding community and I've talked to on forums) measured Arnold in 1969 at 6' 1 1/2" tall. Arnold has clearly lost a few inches which is common especially for lifters who were rather heavy. He is turning 70 and had hip surgery. Similarly, my dad was as 6' and is now about 5'9. My dad's weight ranged from 205 to 240 throughout is older years. Like Arnold, he also had hip surgery. Also, almost all pics of Arnold in a bodybuilding lineup show him towering over people except when Lou Ferrigno who was about 6'5 was on stage.

Mark Schlereth, the former all pro lineman for the Denver Broncos, said that Arnold is not tall. Schlereth is 6'3". I don't know why, but I keep getting contradictory info on something as simple as Arnold's height. Officially he's 6'2" tall.

Do a video on how strong Wilt Chamberlain was. Arnold said that wilt could pick him up like a baby! Also wilt is one of the best basketball players ever 👍🏀
I really appreciate the fact that you stated the weight in both pounds and kilograms
Nice video bro ! Thanks 👍
Why was his squat so close to his bench press? Shouldn't your squat be a lot better than your bench?

Been running his weekly program found on bodybuilding.com for a while solid and simple
Thanks for sharing your research. I had no idea just how strong he was as a teenager, seriously impressed.

Subbing. Sweet video man.
I really apreciate you also saying the weight in Kg, it is rarely seen if the owner of the channel has his or hers basics in the imperial system, assuming you´re a American!
I think we can all agree a 500 pound bench press is better than a 700 pound deadlift. For the simple fact that extra 200 in the deadlift is all body strength vs that 500 which is all upper body strength.

Eddy X not to mention typically those with longer length like arnold tend to be better pull lifters, i agree 100%
Pretty impressive. I always read that Franco was batshit crazy strong. Arnold was more massive, but that doesn't always translate to strength. Still, a 500lb. Bench press is strong, and I'm sure Arnold embarrassed many others in the gym.
Interesting video, thank you.
American! You have earned a new English sub. Thanks so much for the LBS to KG conversion.
