And there is much lies in it, there is much lies in the way it is presented.
First of all in 2008 Sport World celebrates 110 years Anniversary of Bodybuilding.
Bodybuilding was born in Europe (not in America!!!) and the first Bodybuilding Contests started in 1898 in Russia.
First still living Bodybuilding Magazine "Health&Strength" is in UK.
America was strong in Bodybuilding only ending the 20-th century.
Weider's Magazines propaganda speak other way, but that are commercial, not sport magazines.
They serve for Weider Commerce, not for sport in general.
Never forget this.
The first Bodybuilding Contest ever was held in 1897 in Russia.
USA started only 40 years later...
The first ever known Bodybuilding Championship was held in 1897 in Russia.
The organizer was the Count ROBOPJER Athletic Union.
