Schwarzenegger is a legend in bodybuilding. I believe many domestic friends know Schwarzenegger from his Terminator movies. Aside from bodybuilding, Schwarzenegger's life is legendary. No matter in bodybuilding, politics, business and movies, you can be called a successful person. Now Schwarzenegger is over 70 years old. The news that Schwarzenegger was kicked a few days ago also made many netizens say: If you are still young, you can guarantee that this will not happen.

It is true that no matter how powerful the king was, he could not compete with the passage of time. People who are better than Schwarzenegger and Terminator will eventually become heroes in their twilight years, but it is undeniable that Schwarzenegger's figure at the peak is really good. What is the difference between Schwarzenegger's peak figure and modern bodybuilders?

In fact, the evaluation of Schwarzenegger in the industry has been seriously divided. Some bodybuilders believe that Schwarzenegger is a legend in bodybuilding and a benchmark image of bodybuilders, which is equivalent to Jordan's influence in the NBA. However, some bodybuilders think that Schwarzenegger is actually deified. His peak muscle dimension is now, and he may not even qualify for the competition.

If only from the level of bodybuilding, even at the peak, Schwarzenegger can't compare with many modern bodybuilders and Olympic athletes, and at the peak, Schwarzenegger can only be regarded as the last in muscle dimension and shape.

But it doesn't mean that Schwarzenegger's fitness level is not enough. Seven consecutive championships have proved his fitness level. It can be said that in his time, Schwarzenegger represented the peak of bodybuilding competition.

There are many reasons why his peak level is not as good as that of many modern bodybuilders. The rules of the Olympic Games have been changing, and even the current Olympic rules have a tendency of abnormal development, and in contrast, the level of drug use is different. Schwarzenegger also said in an interview that the former Olympic athletes took very small doses, only a few milligrams a week. But the consumption of modern bodybuilders can be said to be dozens of times that of their time. First, the level of drugs has improved a lot. Secondly, many modern bodybuilders don't care about their health at all.

But even so, Schwarzenegger can be called a legend in bodybuilding, because if it weren't for him, bodybuilding might just be a niche circle. It was he who started Arnold's traditional competition and set an Olympic record with its large scale and high prize money. It is also because of him that bodybuilding has officially entered the mass level.

If none of this is convincing, what about the following one? President of the International Bodybuilding Federation awarded Arnold Schwarzenegger the "International Bodybuilding Federation Gold Medal" and called him "the best bodybuilder in the 20th century".
