You could argue that today's Mo-Bro was the first ever metro-sexual! Well before his time! The girls loved him, he had the perfect body and the perfect Mo. Throw a pair of skinny jeans and a t-shirt on him and he would fit right into the modern world. Eugen Sandow (born Friederich Wilhelm Mueller on April 2 1867 in Königsberg, East Prussia, died on October 14 1925) was a pioneering bodybuilder of the Victorian era and is often referred to as the "Father of Modern Bodybuilding". Sandow's resemblance to the physiques found on classic Greek and Roman sculpture was no accident. He actually measured the marble artworks in museums and helped to develop "The Grecian Ideal" as a formula for the "perfect physique". He built his physique to those exact proportions. Because of this, he is considered to be the "Father of Modern Bodybuilding", having been one of the first athletes to intentionally developed his musculature to pre-determined dimensions. Sandow organized the first ever bodybuilding contest on September 14, 1901 called the "Great Competition" and held in the Royal Albert Hall, London, UK. Judged by himself, Sir Charles Lawes, and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle the contest was a huge success and was a sell-out with hundreds of fans turned away. As recognition of his contribution to the sport of bodybuilding, a bronze statue of Sandow sculpted by Frederick Pomeroy has been presented to the Mr. Olympia winner since 1977. This statue is simply known as "The Sandow". A biography was written by David L. Chapman entitled: "Sandow the Magnificent - Eugen Sandow and the Beginnings of Bodybuilding."

"It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed." Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt (October 27, 1858 – January 6, 1919) was the 26th President of the United States (1901–1909). He is noted for his exuberant personality, range of interests and achievements, and his leadership of the Progressive Movement, as well as his "cowboy" persona and robust masculinity. Roosevelt's achievements as a naturalist, explorer, hunter, author, and soldier are as much a part of his fame as any office he held as a politician. Growing a Mo is no easy feat, but if we heed the advice of this great Mo-Bro, Mr Theodore Roosevelt then we will have no problem come December 1, but only if you help!. My fellow Mo growers and I plan not to fail, but we need your help! Believe in us, by donating! Without your kind donations our efforts go unheralded, so please support us by donating online at: http://mobro.co/fpdp311 "Believe you can, and you are half way there."
