STEVE REEVES
Bodybuilding has changed since Reeves took the Mr.
Universe title in 1950. Steve Reeves would not agree
with the path bodybuilding has taken.

Steve was a lifetime advocate of natural bodybuilding.


He spoke out against the use of steroids on several
occasions. Reeves wanted a physique that was both
aesthetic and healthy. Steroids were not widely
available in the 40s and 50s.

Steve’s training method was different from today’s


enhanced bodybuilders. Steroids allow you to train with
more volume and less rest. That’s why most
bodybuilders today favor the body part split.
Reeves trained three days a week, resting for a day and
a half between workouts.

His Classic Physique workout is outlined on the next


page.
