Born on February 10, 1868, McFadden dedicated his life to promoting healthy living and discouraging impure habits.

McFadden's influence on the fitness industry began in the late 1800s when he started publishing his first fitness magazine, "Physical Culture," in 1899. The publication quickly gained popularity, and by the early 1900s, it had become the largest circulation magazine in the world. Through his magazine, McFadden shared his beliefs on the importance of a healthy body and mind, emphasizing the benefits of exercise, proper nutrition, and mental well-being. In the early 1900s, McFadden opened the Physical Culture Institute in New York City, which offered classes in various forms of exercise, including calisthenics, weightlifting, and gymnastics. He also advocated for a vegetarian diet and the use of natural remedies for various health issues. Despite facing criticism from the medical community and societal norms, McFadden remained steadfast in his mission to promote healthy living. He continued to publish his magazine and expand his reach through various media outlets, including books, lectures, and film. Bernarr McFadden passed away on March 16, 1955, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire individuals to prioritize their health and well-being. This photograph serves as a testament to his enduring impact on the world of fitness and health advocacy.
