I sure do remember that, Only.
Be honest here ........ Would you agree when me when I say that BODYBUILDING and the SPORT of Bodybuilding and the whole damn shebang including the gyms - was something completely and totally different and lots more fun and reputable back in the 70's?
It kind of all made a change for the WORSE when the gyms got bought out by BIG BUSINESS and when the idea of PERSONAL TRAINERS came into existance. I do recall those first few years when you had to attend a "school" to get "licensed" to become a trainer so you could train your friends in the gym.
That "trainer" was one of the most obnoxious SOB's I've ever met and she flunked all the competitive bodybuilders who took her course. And she kept on telling me all sorts of bullshit about how she could train a Bodybuilding Champion in half the time that I could.
I think she had a track background and ................ ahhh, forget it.
Back in the old days, eveyone in the gym helped eveyone else for free and never had their paws out for $60 plus an hour. In my humble opinion, the PT business is one of the biggest scams since the days of Snake Oil Salesmen, and we still got a lot of them around too.
OK, back to some photos. Here's a relatively new one. Easy to ID.
