Steve Reeves the best natural bodybuilder ever workout

[@josemezatorrez]

Arnold is my bodybuilding idol but Steve Reeves is the ideal way I want my body to look. True legend

[@tidefanyankee2428]

It's funny a lot of guys will say that about Arnold, that he inspired them to start lifting, but the modern bodybuilder they wanted to look like was Frank Zane.

[@rosy15825]

No his the king of natural muscle Arnold was gorgeous but he use some me stuff he said it himself steamed the just a saying son of the gods little d y’all natural👍

[@54nomore]

He is to me the greatest natural body builder ever in the history of body building. He also was by far the best looking man in cinema ever! I can not understand for the life of me why this beautiful looking man did not do more films. He was a natural for the big screen.

[@terryherrera9054]

I agree with you 100 percent 😍

[@QuantumBraced]

He looks so much better than today's bodybuilders, it's ridiculous.

[@igorstein5616]

QuantumBraced Yes your right his Physique never looks dated because it was perfect and done without Drugs

[@igorstein5616]

***** Are you serious .Listen before you come out with more crap read his book Classic Physique.Another thing He never used real heavy weights.Incline Dumbell Press 110 lb,upright row 130 lb,incline curl 70 lb first set and then dropped the weight,squats 400 lb,Calf raise 400 lb,stand tricep dumbell Extension 60 lb,flys 60 lb,Lat pulls 175 lb,Chins with 20 attached to Belt.Why would anyone need to take Steroids for these weights.Do not believe in the nonsense that is on the web about Steve Reeves.

[@igorstein5616]

***** You can believe Reg Park and Clancy Ross used Steroids but they never did.Steve Reeves wrote an open letter to Arnold Schwarzenegger about the Damage Steroids was doing ,his famous quote was "If you can`t build muscle without steroids take up Ping Pong" he hated Steroids

[@igorstein5616]

***** Reg Park said "Anyone giving steroids to People should be locked up and the Key thrown away" .Clancy Ross never used Steroids ,Marvin Eder never used Steroids,Harold Pool never used Steroids. Doug Hepburn the first man to bench Press 500lb never used Steroids,Paul Anderson .Reg Park was the second man after Doug Hepburn to bench Press 500lb he did it by copying Hepburns 8x2 routine .The russians wrote to thank doug Hepburn for this routine and called him the Grandfather of Weightlifting because he did it without the use of Steroids,his System is still used to day.John Davis used a similar system and was world champion and did it without Steroids.All of these routines can be found on the web.Natural Powerlifters can Deadlift 700lb and Bench Press 400lb and Squat 700lb

[@lazur1]

+John Lain Much evidence indicates Reeves was natural. 1/His 214 lb weight was quite light for his 6'1" height, even by the standards of his era. He looked big because his waist was so tiny. 2/ His photos at age 16 are of kid almost as muscular as he ever got. 3/It's been proven by work-records that Reeves was not on the same continent as Kurt Marnul at the time Marnul accused him, (not to his face), of giving him steroid advice. 4/ Modern estimates of Reeves' FFMI, ( Fat Free Mass Index), list him at 23, the _least_ "muscular" Mr America ever, comparing back as far as 1939. Most old-timers were c25-26. Modern guys can reach 40. 1/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7496846 (Note the highest FFMI at the time was 30. This study was done in 1995) 2/ www.alanaragonblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/Aug-2014-AARR-Eric-Helms-Article.pdf (Scroll to mid-page for Mr America FFMI's from 1939-1959

[@steventapper4845]

In addition to having been blessed with great genetics, Steve Reeves was a pioneer and innovator of various exercises and equipment that allowed him to develop his body and surpass his fellow bodybuilders of his day. He strove to create symmetry and a classic physique over a large bulky muscular physique.

[@georgeee5447]

He is my most favorite bodybuilding idol. I possess all his movies DVDs and play them over and over again now and then. His physique is well balance and he is the best HERCULES actor to date as compared to the other dozens of actors. Seeing is believing. Long Live Steve Reeves!

[@DigitalSamurai1]

I just watched Steve Reeves in the original movies "Hercules" [1958] & "Hercules Unchanged" [1960] last week. Not only was Reeves one of my life heroes, he was the one major influence that kept me completely away from steroids, when I lifted weights in the late 60's/early 70's. Knowing that Reeves didn't even have the benefit of nutritional supplements (only good food) to build his incredible body, I just laughed at all of the other weightlifters who believed steroids were necessary/mandatory.

[@luigidolinski]

He really motivated me in training clean and chalnge my own spirit. To quote Niche, what dosent kill you makes you stronger

[@donschmidt8203]

Argue who is the strongest. Debate who is the fastest. Steve Reeves had the most perfectly proportioned, best looking body in history. CASE CLOSED. Like Apollo descending from Olympus. The bodybulkers of today are descending down a more tragic path. Size and mass have transcended the beautifully sculpted body of Reeves in his era. Even more amazing Reeves may have been the best looking guy ever as well. Nature was overly kind to this man. He made sure he returned the favor.

[@dgjkfrvtswgjy]

Insane physique, puts many of the roided out bodybuilders and physique competitors of today to shame. My biggest natty inspiration at the moment. Hat's off to you Steve.

[@Magneticlaw]

The GOAT of bodybuilding. My inspiration for training naturally. So even though Steve had top tier genetics for building quality muscle, you can improve your physique, no matter what your genetics, and without steroids.

[@Neo09012]

There were many bodybuilders with a great and awesome body. But I think that the difference between them and Steve Reeves is that in the first case their bodies seem like "human bodies", while the body of Steve Reeves was so perfect in his forms and full of absolute beauty that his images seem like the images of a "demigod statue", not a human. Every detail is flawless. I have never seen another man like him.

[@jeetparte9102]

Amazing physique. So much more aesthetically pleasing to look at compared to today's bodybuilders.

STEVE REEVES #1 BEST OF ALL TIME!

[@reguvinps4417]

Steve Reeves literally worked his ass off to get this Body. He trained intensely, he ate big meals, he rested properly. He adapted very well to the Gym life, training seriously everytime he entered. Untill his peak at 24 Years old. He achieved everything in Bodybuilding. He believed in Natural Bodybuilding, because at his time nobody used Steroids, so for him it would be TABOO to use illegal substances. Hope this opens your eyes for all people that think he was on some Drugs. He really wasn't and he should be an example for today's Generation.

According to Debbie Reynolds , Reeves was so overpoweringly good looking other mainstream hollywood leading men refused to appear onscreen next to him in the small bit parts he was offered in the US. He had to go to Italy for his shot and hit a grandslam , moneywise. He didn't like the limelight too much and could never understand was all the fuss was over him. Just a genuine nice humble guy.

[@terryherrera9054]

I don't doubt it's true . And I can totally understand because Debbie Reynolds was right he is absolutely so naturally good looking and just so beautiful . I would even think he was even intimidating to the women stars too. He was one of God's beautiful work of art.

[@danq1419]

I beg to differ. My coach who knew one his friends personally back in the 40s said that Steve hardly even trained. His recovery from workouts was unreal so he hardly needed to hit the gym. He was already genetically predisposed to being big so it didn't take him a long time to get to the physique he wanted to get. That still doesn't take anything away from the Legend that he is! Just means that us mere mortals need to train twice as hard or even more to get anywhere near what he looked like!

[@enhatt]

I know for a fact that Schwarzenegger and Zane used steroids, and most probably excessively compared to the average user. Schwarzenegger used steroids from a very young age infact. The reason people use so much nowadays is because they want to push their bodies beyond previous champions of the sport. If you think modern bodybuilders don't put the same amount of work in at the gym and with their diets because of steroids, then you can't have very much knowledge of bodybuilding or steroids.

[@lazur1]

Reeves built his physique working out MultipleXPrWk. When he achieved what he desired, he -avoided- more size. When muscles aren't dependent on drugs or supps, you keep them w/less training, especially if you dont want further gains. When he resumed training a couple months before each contest, it was w/a vengeance. From middle-age on, Reeves went back to training multipleXsPrWk. (Recovery means you're ready to work again, not that you dont have to. Novices recover faster than elites.)
