L’athlétique Gene Meyer :) À l’instar de Muscle Beach, des plages comme Cannes, La Baule, les Calanques et Trouville en France ont attiré de beaucoup culturistes sur les plages entre 1930 et 1970. Les concours de culturisme Mr Apollo et Bel Athlète de France se sont déroulés dans les villes. Aujourd’hui, pas autant qu’avant. -Beau Mec
Roman rings, a true test of strength ! One needs great upper body strength to use them, as Meyer had. Gymnasts at Muscle Beach could put on quite a show at almost Olympic levels. In the background to the left are the concessions, and on the right the Purser Apartments (often mistaken for the famed muscle house of Joy Crettaz at 160 Hill Street in Santa Monica inland from Muscle Beach) Few bodybuilders could afford to stay at the Purser. Today a studio rents for $2500 a month. -Rj
