  • Steve Reeve's Old School Bodybuilding Workout
    Hope you enjoy this homage to Steve Reeves, a classic bodybuilding and star of the old school Hercules movies.
    Steve Reeves got our dad Duke into working out, and our dad got us into working out, so we wanted to make this video as a tribute. Hope you enjoy it.

    I am 46. When I was twelve, I used to have to lift weights in my parents basement where my Mom couldn't see me because she used to start yelling at me that I was going to stunt my growth. I am 6'2. I guess I would have grown to be about seven feet had I not started weight lifting so early.

    Reeves would do slow, perfect reps, 2 up, three down, and if he could do 3 sets of 13 perfect reps, he’d add weight, then do the 8-12 rep range until he could do 13, then increase weight, etc. He did full body on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, then took the weekend off. On off days, he would do cardio in the form of power walking, which he popularised.

    I used to get that "don't workout until you're 30" alooooot. I started working out at 15, and all of my friends and cousins who saw progress started to tell me that I shouldn't workout at this age as it could cause problems with my bones, can cause stunted growth. And if I stop working out for a week or two, and wanna join back they'll tell me there is no point in continuing your workout now as you've spoiled your body by not working out for too long. Alot of discouragement I faced which made me actually to stop lifting. Until I was 22 and got back in lifting as soon as I got the chance. And on the other hand another cousin of mine who started lifting by the age of 14, kept grinding and became buff as hell by 17 and is just as tall as I am now and has an amazing physique. Moral of the story, don't listen to all those disencouragements and JUSTDOIT!!

What I found interesting is how challenging the pushups were for me. I have a fairly strong bench, but I also weigh ~285lb so sixty push ups totally kicked my butt(chest and triceps haha).

Probably I look silly in front of my mom and sister.. I was too shy back then to do something out of the ordinary in the household when I was 14 15 16 years old watching his programs.. I started joining some local wrestling clubs in New York work in the 80s and early 90s.. and now in my sixties I rejoined.another W club on the internet no I never got into serious bodybuilding always kept a lien 145 lb at 5' 6 frame for a good 40 years still with a 29 - 30inch waist

      @todds.6451 5 лет назад

      I'm old enough to remember my mother exercising along with Jack Lalanne's black-and-white TV show in the mornings. Jack was one of the primary pioneers of the fitness industry in America -- founding the first chain of fitness clubs in the country, inventing the original versions of most of the weight machines we see in modern gyms, and one of the first to warn against the overconsumption of fat and especially sugar. He performed amazing feats of strength and endurance until he reached his 70's.
      I am disappointed that many younger people I encounter in fitness clubs today don't even recognize his name. I too would like to see a video about him; he deserves not to be forgotten.
