Frank ZaneFrank Zane (June 28, 1942 in Kingston, Pennsylvania) is an American bodybuilder and teacher. He received a B.Sc. in Education from Wilkes University, Wilkes Barre, Pa in 1964. Later he earned a B.A. in psychology from UCLA in 1977. Finally, he was awarded a Master degree in Experimental Psychology from California State University San Bernardino, California in 1990. Zane won three-time Mr. Olympia (1977 to 1979). His reign represented a shift of emphasis from mass to aesthetics and his physique is still regarded by some as the ideal in bodybuilding. Zane's proportionate physique featured the thinnest waistline of all the Mr. Olympias with his wide shoulders making for a beautiful V-taper. He published many books about bodybuilding. He is often accused of overly focusing on meditation and relaxation rather then emphasing on the 'core' bodybuilding techniques. He recieved the Arnold Schwarzenegger lifetime achievement award at the 2003 Arnold Classic for his dedication and long-time support of the sport. In the 1980s, Frank owned and ran a gym in Palm Springs, Ca. He was focusing on personal training. He now lives in San Diego with his wife Christine.
