original_response: in the early 1900's there was a man names Eugen Sandow, was very much an advocate for use of dietary control to enhance muscle growth
history: I am thinking about starting to bodybuild. Speaking of bodybuilding, did you know that the bodybuilding supplement industry grew a lot during the 1970s and 1980s? I didn't know that, I think it has got safer as the years have gone by. Have you tried herbal concoctions and tonics ? Those have been used to try increasing stamina and strength by athletes since long ago I have never heard of those. What kind of supplements would best increase mass gains? I am not sure, but in Ancient Greece bodybuilders were advised to eat lots of meat and drink lots of wine I think today there is a lot of man made chemicals in powder form.
knowledge: In the 1910s, Eugen Sandow, widely considered to be the first modern bodybuilder in the West, advocated the use of dietary control to enhance muscle growth.
