Clevio Massimo Sabatino (Tony Massimo) was born May 4, 1895, in the Abruzzi region of Italy. At age 6, his family immigrated to America and settled in Buffalo, New York. His mother insisted he practice the violin rather than spend time playing rough-house games. At age 17, Clevio left home and dropped his last name, with the determination of becoming a vaudeville strongman extraordinaire. With youth and energy, he included hand balancing and violin playing along with his strength feats to become an over-night vaudville head-liner.
One of his many unique stunts was a leg-biceps curl, where he would lie face-down on the floor. His assistant would grasp his feet and do a handstand. From this position the balancer was slowly curled upward until Massimo's lower legs were perpendicular. Then, ever-so-slowly, he was lowered to the starting position. An additional show-stopper was a head-to-head stand with his partner, as Tony gracefully played his voilin throughout the stunt.
Later, Tony teamed with a young acrobat using the stage name Clovis. "Clevio and Clovis" greatest stunt was Clovis balancing like a ballerina on Tony's chin.
As vaudeville lost favor, Clevio turned to professional wrestling. This career took him throughout North and South America grappling with the top wrestlers of that era.
Clevio Massimo, the Italian Hercules, retired to his hometown, Buffalo, New York, where he lived quietly until he died at age 84. His lasting contribution to the iron game was his demonstration that great size and bulk does not impair an athlete's physical abilities. He demonstrated that bodybuilders can have as much grace and artistry as anyone. most muscular man 1935

Athletes have been experimenting with hormones and exogenous testosterone long before 1935. We don't know if he was a "clean" athlete

That's true.
I mean - when were roids first available for testing in the military, perhaps in Hitler's Germany?
Steve Reeves was at his biggest and hardest around summer of 1958, if I recall correctly. If he used anything, that would have been the year.

Being stupid is a choice that you seem to relish abusing. You love to rationalize your own inadequacies with bullshit like that quoted above. You truly are the title of a Grand Funk Railroad song in reverse*.
* The title of that particular song is T.N.U.C.

Just because you choose to inject bio identical hormones doesn’t mean people who don’t are doing the same things you are.

They always excuse their drug use. Since we are all juicing simply by eating meat and plants then all the pros can stop injecting now. ::)

All I am saying is that people were using hormones in the late 1800s this guy is from 1935 we have no idea if he was using hormones or not. Bu we do know strength athletes at that time were using and he certainly appears to be a strength athlete. Really don't get why we have to explain this same information again and again every time someone finds a new athlete they love. Let me break it down PEDS have been around as long as photography if you find a picture of an athlete then they could absolutely be on PEDS.
While not synthesized until 1935 testosterone was being extracted from animals and used in pharmaceutical elixirs concoctions and injections since at least the late 1800s.

Many of us here know about the history of the iron-game, history of PED's etc.
A sentence like the one you wrote above really just proves 'your' ignorance and self-love/delusion.
Calm down cobbler-tits ::)
