Everything about Tom Platz totally explained

Thomas Steven Platz (born June 26, 1955) was a professional bodybuilder. He is known among fans by the nickname "The Golden Eagle".

Bodybuilding Accomplishments

Tom Platz began his competitive bodybuilding career in the 1973 Mr. Adonis competition. He competed as an amateur until he won the 1978 World Amateur Championships middleweight division.
   For the following nine years Platz competed as a pro aiming for the most prestigious bodybuilding title there is, Mr. Olympia. Though Platz never took first at the Olympia he'd a string of top ten finishes, with a third position in 1981 being the best.
   Platz became famous for his remarkable leg development. He developed a high intensity, high volume method of leg training which led to his unparallelled size and definition for his time. Regardless of what was found lacking elsewhere, it's still widely claimed in bodybuilding circles that Platz holds the mark for the best legs in bodybuilding of his time, and some of the best legs in bodybuilding ever.
   He played the part of "Body Builder" in the 1990 film Book of Love. His character portrayed the Charles Atlas-like character from those "tired of bullies kicking sand in your face and stealing your girlfriend" type of advertisements that were in a lot of comic books during the 50's and 60's.
