1) Steve Reeves's birthday was two days ago, January 21. I have to thank Randy for all of the photos that he sent me that I shared on Instagram and to a lesser extent here on my KZbin community page. It seems that there is a never-ending supply of Steve Reeves photos - and if those lost photos of Steve ever show up we'll be in business. It was rumored that when Joe Weider moved from New Jersey to California a certain number of boxes of Steve Reeves photos disappeared.
In 1948, on January 21, Steve turned 22 on the day that he flew to Los Angeles for a meeting in Hollywood with Cecil B. DeMille. Steve signed a 7-year contract to play the lead in Samson and Delilah and any following projects.*

2) I received an email from my Rolf in Germany recently. Rolf asks about Steve's workout schedule. There's so much confusion out there on social media that I can tell you that the best resource that I know of is Steve's book, "Building The Classic Physique The Natural Way". Steve was very much involved with this book so let's take a look at Steve's full-body workout that he used
for Mr. America in 1947 and the Mr. Universe in 1950.
"Hello Mr Scott
Here you can see Steve Reeves' training program. Steve only trained 3 times a week. That's how it is said. Is that correct.?
He supposedly never trained his abs. Is that correct.? What kind of weights did he use in training?? Are there any films where he shows during his training?
There are many pictures and photos! What is Mr. Helmer doing??
Thanks for the answer.
Best regards
Rolf /Switzerland"
3) The Centaur Fight, marble sculpture (1888-1900) by Gustave Crauk
Among his finest works is his Crauk combat du Centaure, on which he was engaged for thirty years, the figure of the Lapith having been modeled after the strongman, Eugen Sandow.[1]
Gustave Adolphe Désiré Crauck was a French sculptor with a long distinguished career. He was born and died at Valenciennes, where a special museum for his works was erected in his honor. Educated at the École des Beaux-Arts, Crauck took the Prix de Rome in 1851. Wikipedia
Born: July 16, 1827, Valenciennes, France
Died: November 17, 1905, Meudon, France
