We needed some motivation ot get us off our ass today and go for a sweat, and this 20th century bodybuilding gallery from Queerty filled us with a pre-workout zap of nostalgia. Thee guys just didn’t have the same ‘roids or T as these young #GymTok youngins do these days! Or the ridiculous haircuts. It really was a different time. A place for guys to bond and admire eachother’s progress, you know?
Take a step back in time with a gallery of vintage male bodybuilders caught on film after the jump. So swole, brah!
More!
I think you meant 20th Century.
One of the photos looks like a young Lloyd Bridges.
These are 20th Century photos.
The 19th Century goes from Jan 1, 1800 to Dec 31, 1899. (Like the first century is 0 to the last day of year 99)
I know this is an old post but the anal retentive part of me cannot let this pass: Greg, you are incorrect. There is no year zero, therefore, the first 100 years in the common era ended on December 31, 100 CE, a time span of 100 years. The 10th century ended on December 31, 1000 CE, and the 20th century ended on December 31, 2000 CE. Centuries end on December 31st of a year that is evenly divisible by 100.
(Yes, I am well aware that our current Julian calendar system did not go into effect until October 1582 so no one contemporaneously observed a December 31, 100 or 1000 CE, but I think you get my point.)
I think you mean 20th Century.
These are from the 20th century, not the 19th. The 19th would be dates from the 1800s. We are currently in the 21st century.
