In the mid 1960’s a young US NAVY medic named Mike Joplin was stationed in Puerto Rico (Roosevelt Roads: aka – Roosey Roads).
Like most young men, he craved the attention of beautiful women, and he got it, but for the wrong reasons.
At a mere 155 pounds and at 6’1 height, he was known as “the skinny guy”.
Despite his low bodyweight, he was unable to complete a single pull up!
Fortunately for Mike, all of this changed…

Today, at age 70 Mike still looks amazing and has a physique that smokes most young men.
