Mike Mentzer !!!

Mike Mentzer (15 de noviembre de 1951 - 10 de junio del 2001), fue un físicoculturista y filósofo estadounidense.

También conocido como «el culturista filósofo», culturista, escritor y hombre de negocios, desarrolló los conceptos culturistas de Arthur Jones y los perfeccionó. Mediante años de estudio, observación y conocimiento de la fisiología del estrés, así como mediante un uso cuidadoso de sus habilidades razonadoras, Mike Mentzer fue capaz de desarrollar y poner en práctica una teoría del culturismo.

La teoría del culturismo de Mentzer está pensada para ayudar a la persona a alcanzar su máximo desarrollo muscular ajustado a su potencial genético dentro del menor tiempo posible.

Mentzer era seguidor del Objetivismo, el sistema filosófico creado por Ayn Rand, e insistía en que la Filosofía y el Culturismo eran la misma cosa. Según él, «El Hombre es una entidad indivisible, una unidad integrada de mente y cuerpo». Por ello, sus libros contienen tanto Filosofía como Culturismo.

Algunos en la comunidad culturista creen que Mentzer debió haber ganado el Mr.Olympia 1980, no obstante, el título fue a parar a manos de Arnold Schwarzenegger, quien hizo un regreso-sorpresa exclusivamente al Mr. Olympia de 1980 tras 4 años de retiro formal del deporte. El Mr. Olympia 1980 todavía es un asunto incómodo para muchos de los culturistas que compitieron en él.

Mike Mentzer falleció en junio del 2001. Fue hallado en su apartamento por su hermano menor y compañero culturista Ray Mentzer. La causa de la muerte fue "complicaciones cardíacas".

John Carroll Grimek

John Carroll Grimek was born on June 17, 1910 (or June 18, 1911, as given by the Social Security Death Index) in Perth Amboy, New Jersey, son of Slovak immigrants George and Maria Grimek. Besides his bodybuilding exploits, he represented the United States in weightlifting at the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin. In 1948, at 38 years of age, Grimek defeated Steve Reeves in a hotly disputed (till this day) decision at the NABBA Mr. Universe contest in London. It seems that with a tie on the scorecards, good-friend and a judge of the contest, Bob Hoffman decided that the winner would be decided by a feat of gymnastics. Since Grimek was a very good gymnast, Reeves took second place gracefully. The following year he won his last contest, the AAU Mr. USA, against a field that included a sun-burned Reeves, Clarence Ross, George Eiferman, and Armand Tanny. He retired from bodybuilding undefeated.

John has been featured in many bodybuilding articles and magazines, as well as being featured on the cover of Muscular Development magazine. Despite his retirement, Grimek continued serious training for many years, and was still able to squat with over 400 pounds for reps in his late 60s. Grimek died on November 20, 1998 in York, Pennsylvania. He was inducted into the IFBB Hall of Fame in 1999

Mauricio Peters !!!

Dickerson was born to Mahala Ashley Dickerson as the youngest of three triplets. He studied music and is an accomplished opera singer in addition to his career in athletics.

Dickerson first entered bodybuilding competition in 1965 by taking third place at that year's Mr. Long Beach competition. He was not only the first African-American Mr. America, but also the oldest winner, at age 43, of the IFBB Mr. Olympia contest, which he won in 1983.

One of the world's most titled bodybuilders, Dickerson's competitive career spanned thirty years; he was known for both his heavily muscled, symmetrical physique and for his skills on the posing dais. He trained for many of his most important competitions in the 1980s with former Mr. UniverseBill Pearl. He retired in 1994. Dickerson was inducted into the IFBB Hall of Fame in 2000.

Today, Dickerson lives in Florida where he continues to train, conduct seminars, and correspond with current athletes.

Frank mcgrath !!!

Frank is an awesome up and coming newly turned pro bodybuilder, who at the age of 26, has developed some of the biggest biceps around, comparing favourably to many top competitive bodybuilders. His waist is also only 28 inches! A waist that small on a superheavyweight is practically unheard of. Although we all know some bodybuilders make false claims, it's very easy to tell from the picture above just how tiny Frank's waist is. Coupled with his enormous arms and awesome V-Taper, he has a great look! Frank was also born at my city of birth - St. John's, Newfoundland. He is probably the best bodybuilder in Newfoundland's history. Frank earned his IFBB pro card by winning the superheavyweight and overall at the CBBF Canadian Champtionships in 2003. He has since competed in the 2004 Toronto Pro, where he placed 12th. In my opinion, Frank was overlooked at the show in place of other better known bodybuilders. He definitely had the goods to place in the top 10. I expect a bright future from Frank, and wish him the best of luck with his future in professional bodybuilding.
