Harold Poole -- Best Teenage Bodybuilder of All-Time!

Harold Poole, best teenage bodybuilder of all-timeHarold Poole was undoubtedly the best teenage bodybuilder of all-time. He was also a phenomenal all-around athlete, winning his share of track and wrestling competitions.

Harold had the classic lines that we all miss. He was like a '69 Camaro Z28 -- brutal power and elegant all at the same time.

Here's Poole's workout routine back in 1962:

  • 3 Sets Barbell Press Behind Neck
  • 6 Sets of Barbell Bench Press, Wide Grip
  • 3 Sets of Barbell Rowing
  • 3 Sets of Chins Behind Neck
  • 3 Sets of Cheating Barbell Curl
  • 5 Sets of Triceps Kickbacks
  • 3 Sets of Front Squats
  • 6 Sets of Donkey Calf Raises
  • 1 Set of Sit-ups
As you can see, he was a natural athlete! He focused on chest and back and did very little leg and ab work. Because he was a track athlete, I guess he didn't need to!

Here's to the best teenage bodybuilder of all-time!
