He had all of the good traits of a bodybuilder, without overdoing it. He was big, vascular, and lean.

Today's bodybuilders seem to focus more on sheer size, less on aesthetics. Arnold was from a time when a bodybuilder looked much more like they were chiseled from stone.

Here are some pictures of Arnold to look back on what bodybuilding used to be like.
