Retro Hottie: Steve Reeves

We did an article for The Richest a while back about the 15 hottest bodybuilders and we’re going to be honest, since professional bodybuilders really aren’t our cup of tea, it was tough to find ones that we thought were sexy.  However, we did discover that the farther you go back in time, the hotter the bodybuilders got.

Specifically, STEVE REEVES.

What’s that? You don’t know who he is? Don’t worry.  We’ll be happy to give you this gift of happiness wrapped in a yummy toga.  Steve Reeves is best known for his role as Hercules in the very famous 50s movies and of course he was one of the most memorable men to play Hercules because …

Sadly, Steve passed away at the age of 74 in May of 2000 but here on Shedens, we’re making sure his gorgeous ass still lives on.
