Arnold Schwarzenegger had one of the most impressive physiques in the world as a competitive bodybuilder.
Arnold won the Mr. Olympia 7 times in his competitive career and the only two men who have won it more often are Lee Haney and Ronnie Coleman who both have 8 Mr. Olympia titles.
When Arnold was competing posing was very important, bodybuilders back then focused more on creating an aesthetic physique rather than just being a mass monster like so many bodybuilder’s are today.
That’s why in the old days of bodybuilding everyone could do a vacuum pose.

Kai Greene is arguably the best poser we have ever seen on a bodybuilding stage.
When Kai Greene was competing he was known for putting hours on top of hours in crafting his perfect posing skills.
His posing skills paid off when competing as he was able to score more points than his competitors because he had better posing.
That’s exactly what Arnold talks about post Arnold Classic in 2016 when he thought that Kai won because of his posing:
Through the posing Kai Greene picked up a few points and overcame his shortcomings in the afternoon, if he wouldn’t have included the posing Cedric would have won.
Arnold believes that Kai Greene won the Arnold Classic because of his posing skills, Cedric was the runner up with arguably a better physique at least they were very similar.
