Who has the best legs in the history of bodybuilding?

Throughout the history of bodybuilding, there has been much debate about who has the best body parts, including the best legs. Tim Wilkins, Terrick El Guindy and Chris Cormier tackle this topic as part of a recent episode of Prime Time Muscle on Olympia TV's YouTube channel. Wilkins opened the discussion with parameters of what was being considered.

He said: “It could be the size, it could be the quality, it could be both.” El Guindy said the legs must be massive, ragged and dense. He then announced his first candidate.

"The greatest legs ever and it hasn't gotten any better, the only man in the world with these legs is Tom Platz."

El Guindy nominated Paul De Mayo as a possible candidate for second place, followed by two-time Arnold Classic champion Branch Warren. Cormier had a great lower body himself and felt he should be part of the conversation.

“Before you were even alive, there was something called Musclemag International,” he told El Guindy. "I was voted best leg three years in a row. You could put a quarter in the deep cuts in my quads."

Other names that came into play included two Mr. Olympia winners - eight-time champion Ronnie Coleman and seven-time Sandow Trophy winner Phil Heath. Cormier expressed his support for Coleman with one observation in particular that he saw firsthand.

“He started with some of the smallest legs in bodybuilding and ended with some of the biggest.”
