Mythic Physique 2016_B_Reg

To me, Reg Park's physique has always represented the pinnacle of what was achievable during the Peplum Era. Aside from being an iconic actor and bodybuilder, Reg was also a very successful businessman. Anecdotal accounts portray him as a warm and friendly individual dedicated to his family and friends. He was also devoted to his sport and mentored many young hopefuls, including Arnold Schwarzenneger.

Reg Park (1928 - 2007) portrayed Hercules and/or Maciste in five Sword and Sandal epics. He won fourteen titles as a professional bodybuilder.

Reg the Leg (short for Legend) left behind a rich legacy of instruction that includes his famous 5X5 Bodybuilding Routine and a Cable Workout. His dietary practices, health habits and philosophies have been preserve for posterity as well. These treasures are a road-map to success that have benefited many.

Thank you Reg Park, for all your contributions! Your uniquely carefree, yet loving and devout portrayal of my operant archetype has inspired me for over half a century. It will, no doubt, continue to inspire me for the rest of my earthly sojourn. For that, I now express my sincere gratitude!
