Frank Zane Frank Zane (born June 28, 1942 in Kingston, Pennsylvania) is an American former professional bodybuilder and teacher . He has written many courses and books about bodybuilding . In 1994, Zane was inducted into the 1st annual Joe Weider Hall of Fame . He received the Arnold Schwarzenegger lifetime achievement award at the 2003 Arnold Classic for his dedication and long-time support of the sport. He was given the nickname "The Chemist" due to his Bachelor of Science degree and, as he puts it: "Back in the day I took a lot of supplements and tons of amino acids. Still do. But back then it was pretty unusual. That's how I got the nickname The Chemist." There was also a perception that his nickname was given because he was very scientific in reaching his peak on the exact day of competition, year after year. In 1985, Frank and his wife Christine owned and operated Zane Haven in Palm Springs, CA where they successfully conducted one-on-one sessions with clients who wish to possess a symmetrical physique. Zane's own bodybuilding formula was B=EARN (Total Bodybuilding = Exercise x Attitude x Rest x Nutrition)and this has always been emphasized to every single client since he began this center. Today, the Zanes live in San Diego, CA and his learning center is now called Zane Experience. In 2005, Frank Zane played the IFBB Announcer and worked as the consulting producer in the movie "See Arnold Run." As of 2006, Zane currently runs his own website, appears at seminars and book signings, and offers personal weightlifting sessions with his program called "The Zane Experience" in San Diego. He is still in fantastic shape today, at age 67. .
