  • Walt Baptiste

    • In 1934, Walt Baptist and his wife Magana established the first training center of its kind, which combined the disciplines of physical culture, yoga, weight training, meditation, and breathing exercises.

    Walt and his wife also appeared on the cover of many bodybuilding magazines in the 1940s and 1950's such as Strength and Health and Iron Man Magazine.

    For a while, he even had his own physical culture magazine, Body Moderne, pictured here.    		Walt BaptisteWalt Baptiste
