Speaking of the epoch-making legendary athletes in the history of fitness and bodybuilding: Ronnie Kuhlmann, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Kay Green, Kevin Levronn... They all have more or less left a strong mark on the history of bodybuilding.
There is a saying in the competitive world: "In sports competition, only the first place can always be remembered!" Although the inspirational truth in this sentence is stronger, this sentence is not entirely correct.
For example, the bodybuilders of Arnold's contemporaries
Although never won the Olympiad
But still at its peak to the world bodybuilding
Left a deep impression and still can not surpass the state

Tom Platz
In the bodybuilding world Platz has a resounding title "Leg King"
He has the best quadriceps in the world
The lines are deep, large and full, like sculptures
The state of detail in the leg muscles seems to have reached its limits
First, feel the circumference of his legs and the lines of his muscles
▼
This state can now be said to be almost unsurpassed
No wonder Arnold commented:
This guy was about to torture his quadriceps to death
It's painful for others
But here he is always enjoying
Platz was inspired by Dave Draper from the age of 9
Started working out in my father's basement
At the age of 11, he was fascinated by the study of muscle engineering
Weight increased to 165 pounds at age 15
Committed to becoming a professional bodybuilder
Pratz's daily training is very hard
Every time I try my best, I won't give up
It is necessary to let the inmate assist and continue to squeeze the muscles
Weight-bearing leg flexion and extension
High pull-down
Prone leg bending
With a 150 kg barbell squat, he was able to complete 30 times
Just like the leg king has a famous saying:
You can always do it 5 more times
He didn't believe in luck because luck came from action
It is conceivable that the world's first leg king is behind this
The hardships and sweat of the effort
In 1978, Pratz officially entered the professional bodybuilding circle
By 1987 his career was only 9 years long
But this 9 years Riplatz participated 7 times
Mr. Olympia did not win the Olympiad
But his thighs have had a shocking effect on the world's bodybuilding community
The world's bodybuilding leg king is none other than him, and no one has surpassed him so far
Although has withdrawn early from the professional bodybuilding sports circle
But Pratz is still active in the fitness and bodybuilding world
He never left the bodybuilding career he loved
The 60-year-old man will also go to the gym every day to punch in and train
Heavy weight squats, leg lifts
Mentoring juniors at the gym
Dedicate your own afterglow, waste heat
There's always more you can do than you think
Hats off to the King of Legs!
Finally, I will give you the first male model in the United States
A passage from Greg Plitt
Share
The winners in life are not those with good genes
Or the most talented people
It's those who are indomitable
When they fall, they always keep getting up
Keep trying, keep trying
They are the ones who raise their hands and cheer at the end of their lives
That's who you're supposed to be
