    I'll never forget going to Frank's seminar in Tarpon Springs, Florida back in the 80's. He had fallen off his bicycle and injured his shoulder and had an operation so he had to sign photos left handed. He was very gracious and informative.

    In the early 80s in Johannesburg South Africa ,, the most exclusive Eastgate Shopping Centre opened ...and a new gym opened in the centre ...All the windows were blinded ..... all they did to advertise the gym was ,, 2 massive posters of Frank Zane at his best ... very few people had ever seen a picture of a living superman back then .....was very inspiring , those pics caused me to lift iron from 1986 to today .... Thanks Frank

I probably would not have been able to concentrate on anything serious in the classroom.

    If I had been lucky enough to have had the future Mr Olympia as math teacher it could have been beneficial even though he,was heterosexual with a gorgeous wife He got his MA in psychology so he should have been understanding about my gayness but Buddhists like him aren't automatically gay positive any more than fundamentalist Christians. All the same having him as my teacher could have been enough to drive me nuts with frustration because all I could do to look more like him was intense biking chinups maybe pushups forearm dips. ----. I had scoliosis and could never do the free weights to try to look like him. Also I might have wanted to be like him so much that I could have pushed my homosexuality farther to the back burner
