Charles Atlas

Did you know...

... that today is the birthday of Charles Atlas (1893)? Born
Angelo Siciliano, Atlas was the developer of a bodybuilding
and exercise program. He trained himself to develop his body
from that of a "scrawny weakling," eventually becoming the
most popular muscleman of his day. He took the name "Charles
Atlas" after a friend told him he resembled the statue of
Atlas on top of a hotel in Coney Island and legally changed
his name in 1922.
