In This AMA, Antoine Vaillant and Jujimufu debate whether bodybuilding was truly better in the so called golden era or if nostalgia is clouding reality. They break down conditioning, size, technology, divisions, and why modern bodybuilding offers more opportunity even if some old school elements are missing. The conversation expands into competition frequency, stage presentation, athlete longevity, and how different sports evolve over time.

Do we all have fave eras?

 

[Ulter]

I think the golden era was a little bit of both. It just depends on the perspective you have.

 

[chesty]

The golden era tends to be overrated. The things that you see are the best of the best bodybuilders. You don't see the average bodybuilder though.

 

[ROIDDERS]

I definitely think today in a meat head gym you'll find guys who look as good as some of the top guys from the golden era.

Bros, I like the Golden Era a lot. I got a lot of respect for that time. That was before the crazy physiques we see today.

 

[BodyMonster34]

Bro, I could kick anyone's ass from the Golden Era. I'm a real man and real men aren't intimidated.

I don't know. I like the golden era of physiques better than anything. Guys back then weighed 170 or 180 lb and were still huge.
