Don Ross

Gymnastics and Strength Sports

Don Ross was an American professional bodybuilder, wrestler and weight training coach from California, born in Detroit, Michigan, on October 6, 1946. He performed under the names Ripper Savage and The Bronx Barbarian. From 1979 until his death on June 2, 1995, he was a popular writer, story teller and advocate of bodybuilders and strength athletes, and he wrote the book Fundamentals of Bodybuilding, published by Collier Books in 1985. The Wikipedia article lists no contest results for him, so this entry records his career as a bodybuilder, wrestler, coach and author without ranking his competitive record.
