WE SURVEY THE FIRST HALF-CENTURY OF MR. OLYMPIAS WITH TWEETLIKE ADVICE FROM THE WINNER OF EACH CONTEST
On September 19, 1965, a standing-room-only crowd of 2,500 rabid fans in the Brooklyn Academy of Music screamed as Larry Scott was (literally) crowned the first Mr. Olympia. Only 13 men have won the coveted Sandow to date. In their honor, we’ve assembled advice from the victor of each contest—from Scott’s initial two to Phil Heath’s five. Like tweets, no tip is longer than 140 characters, and affixed to each are hashtags regarding that year’s Olympia—its location and major story lines. This invaluable guidance from bodybuilding’s legends as well as the hashtag history lesson demonstrates that some things have changed while others have stayed the same over the Mr. Olympia’s first 53 years.
