the 1990 winner was peter miller, at this point i think the mr a contest was losing its steam the ifbb had dropped all mister references their mr a became the nationals, the mr. universe the world championships etc. little can be found on these later contest as their won't be many more of them. the mag muscular developement was shifting more to the fitness aspect and away from hardcoe bodybuilding. as witnessed by later covers when they became all natural MD. ironically their first cover model was melissa coates.

ironic that the most hardcore mag now went all-natural. they flipflopped twice. went back to not natural MD.

the next winner in 1992 was mike scarcella 1963-2003, died while fighting ghb withdrawal, really a sad case. he was the victim of hospital dumping when he died.
