It was guys like Larry Pacifico, Doug Young, John Kuc, Jim Cash, Don Rheinhout, Ernie Frantz…and others, who paved the way.

Roger Estep…what a physique. I remember his foray into bodybuilding and that photo shoot of him in M&F magazine. He was one of the first to box squat, and an all around class guy, too.

From the UK, who could forget Eddie Pengelly…
