“Steve Reeves - the idol of celebrities and athletes - from Winston Churchill, James Dean and Willie Mays to Burt Reynolds, Sly Stallone, Arnold and Lou Ferrigno.
Reeves is still considered by most bodybuilding aficionados to be the most perfectly developed Mr America ever.
I recall asking Ben Weider (who has seen virtually every bodybuilder - champion and professional - in his 50 years as President of the IFBB) whom he considered to have the “greatest physique” of all time.

“Hi All,
I had my first interview for CD #2 with Scott York of “How to Make Money in Bodybuilding, Figure, & Fitness 101″.
