Joe Weider:Trainer of Champions since 1936 ?.

* He was about 16yo in 1936, right !.
* Which one/s Champion/s he trained in 1936 ?????, names please !.
* Steve Stanko was the 1st real Champion (Mr.Universe 1947),John Grimek Mr.U '48 (Health & Strenght version),Steve Revees Mr.U '50
   (NABBA version).


he was probably just teaching the neighborhood ruffians "proper technique" when picking up scrap metal out of the junkyard for stronger muscles. That was likely the extent of his "training" at that age but to his credit the beginnings of the magazine that would later become "Muscle and Fitness began right around that time.

Ha! 

I'd definitely say Ron lost mad weight.  Congrats, Ron.  You still have a bit of a double-chin, but I think that's in part from you overusing the "thinking man's pose" ;)

It would be interesting if somebody have a photo of Joseph Weider at the NABBA Mr.Universe (he was 5th in his class).
