Arnold Schwarzenegger was the ideal action hero of the 1980s and 90s films. He had an impressive physique and was also a seven-time Mr. Olympia winner. Obviously, he has always been every budding body-builder’s idol.
However, there was another man, who had even bigger biceps than The Terminator star. It’s Hulk Hogan, who has been a top-sought icon even beyond the world of wrestling. Still sporting a tough physique at 69, he is capable enough of making several young stars shy with his physique. During his days, Hogan boasted massive biceps of 24 inches, which could have made even The Austrian Oak shy.

In an Instagram video from 2020, The Hulkster wished one of the bodybuilding greats, Ronnie Coleman, and applauded his toughness.
Hogan said, “Yeah, buddy! Ron Coleman, you’re my hero brother. Reaching out dawg.” In the video posted by Hogan, he was seen working out and doing reps of seated rows and training his impressive back muscles.
The 69-year-old continued with a video message and said, “Back surgery number ten. Back surgery number ten brother. Both hips, both knees replaced. Yeah buddy! Coming after you brother!” Hogan expressed the number of surgeries Coleman has had, and also the different types of injuries he faced.

However, Hogan concluded his video on a high note. He said, “Maybe we can team up, have a charity match, win the world titles together!” He proposed a future charity match involving the two of them, and also potentially win the world titles together.
Ronnie Coleman was also known as ‘The King’ and rightly so because he had won Mr. Olympia a massive number of eight times. Along with Hogan, he also sported 24 inches biceps, while Schwarzenegger had biceps of 22-24 inches.

Even at 69 years, and retired from the sport a long time ago, Hogan has maintained a good physique and has taken care of his body. But he did not always possess such a good physique. He worked hard for it and trained rigorously to achieve this.
Five years ago, Hulk Hogan took to social media to upload an image of himself with another legendary professional bodybuilder. He posted a few images alongside a hilarious caption. He wrote, “Ran into this little guy at the gym, JK .”
