Arnold Schwartzenegger
You got me, Arnold may not be black but he was instrumental in the progression of the sport. Schwarzenegger was the face of bodybuilding, and even now when you mention the word “bodybuilding”, most people still think of Arnold. He was ahead of his time and promoted bodybuilding not only through the competitive stage, but his massive physique gave him unique roles in action movies such as Conan. Arnold won 7 Mr. Olympia titles. He is most notable for his Chest, Biceps, and Calves. His legs were not horrible, as they were good for their time, but do not match up to the current expectations of bodybuilders. Arnold stood 6 2? and competed usually around 240 pounds.
