Was Frank Zane still a teacher when he was winning Mr Olympias?

[240 is Back]

I read that Zane was a teacher in his early days.  Anyone know what year he left the field?  Was he still teaching when he won Olympia in 77-79?

[jwb]

Pretty sure he was living off the sport full time by then...

However, seminars were actually real seminars back then so he was still teaching in one respect.

I'm almost positive that he left teaching math in the late 60's or early 70's, so by the time he was winning the Olympia he was long gone from the field.

I thought bodybuilders didn't have time for real jobs.

You don't think gay for pay is a real job?

Why is it that today's seminars aren't what they used to be?

is the information that readily available online/books now?  Or is it all drugs, and no one can touch that publicly?

The same reason today's physiques are not like they use to be - they suck!

The only exception would be some sort of stripper school, where damaged young 18-year olds are trained to gyrate by a 23-year old experienced stripper with not too many miles on her.

That kinda teacher would be cool in my book.

THAT was a major league zinger 240 hehehehe.
Zane did start out teaching chemistry and math with lifetime teaching certificates I believe. Once he was a top bodybuilder he pursued more lucrative interests related to bodybuilding and fitness.Remember the ol Zane haven in Palms Springs?   Howard
