Richard Alan Drasin, popularly known as Ric Drasin was an American bodybuilder, personal trainer, actor, stuntman, author, and professional wrestler. He wrestled professionally and sporadically between 1965 and 2001, while also winning titles in amateur bodybuilding competitions during his younger years. Drasin is also known for having designed both the original Gold’s Gym logo a cartoon sketch of a bald weightlifter and the World Gym gorilla logo. Born and raised in Bakersfield, California, he started his fitness career in 1962. Drasin taught classes in nutrition and exercise at the YMCA before he was assigned to train with the National Wrestling Alliance (NWA) champion Mae Young.
Drasin was 76 years old at the time of his death, he was born on July 12, 1944, in Bakersfield, California, United States of America. He celebrated his birthday on July 12, every year and his birth sign is Cancer.
Drasin died on August 30, 2020, (aged 76) in Van Nuys, California. He was being treated in a hospital for a kidney problem when he passed away. He will be greatly remembered for the impact he brought on the entertainment industry.
Drasin stood at a height of 6 feet 0 inches (1.83 meters) and also weighed 222 lb (101 kg).
Drasin was a highly educated and qualified person. His formal education began at Franklin Elementary School. While at Emerson Junior High School, as a joke he and two friends tried out for the cheerleading squad. They were selected. He graduated from Bakersfield High School in 1962 at age of 18, then attended Bakersfield College for two years (1963–1964), concentrating on art.
Drasin was born Richard Alan Drasin in Bakersfield, California, as the second child of Oscar Drasin (father) (Died: 1963) and Claire Drasin (Died: 2010). His parents owned and operated Drasin’s Little Folks Shop, a children’s furniture, and clothing store.
When he was 18 years old, his father died during surgery for a heart condition. Drasin and his father had very much enjoyed going to professional wrestling shows together and, unknown to his father, Drasin had decided he would someday become a professional wrestler. Drasin has one sibling, an older sister, Stephanie (born: 1936).
Drasin was married to Randi Susan Weber from 1989 to 2012. They have one kid together named: Samantha Paige Drasin. Previously he was married to Ilene Walit. The couple married between 1975 and 1983 and they have two kids together named: Adam Drasin and Shane Drasin.
Drasin had an estimated net worth of $100 thousand and $1 million as of 2021. This includes his assets, money, and income. His primary source of income was his career as a Personal Trainer. Through his various sources of income, Ric had been able to accumulate a good fortune but prefers to lead a modest lifestyle.
Here are some interesting facts and body measurements you should know about Drasin.
As a fan, I remember Drasin tearing it up at the famed Olympic Auditorium. Today I’m even more excited to have him as a co-worker. I’ve been in the business for over twenty years, as one of the creative forces behind G.L.O.W. – Gorgeous Ladies Of Wrestling, and W.O.W. – Women Of Wrestling. When I was contacted about developing a new show (I can’t reveal the name until our big launch), I knew Ric was the man to call.
Drasin’s love, respect, and protection of the business are readily apparent. He has a wealth of knowledge he’s always willing to share. His training approach, methods, and all-around program drew rave reviews from our trainees. In three weeks’ time, Drasin took girls who had never wrestled and had them ready for television matches.
Their performance level was so high, and they executed moves so well, wrestlers who have been working for years sat up and took notice. Legendary Hall Of Famer Jimmy Hart personally told me how impressed he was.
If that doesn’t speak volumes, let me add that the trainees talked so positively and passionately about their experience with Drasin, models, and actresses who had non-wrestling roles on our show are now lining up for training. Much of our success belongs to Drasin. I’m glad he’s part of our team. Steve Balance writer/producer.
Working with Drasin during the past few years has been both an educating and entertaining experience for me. When I say educating, I mean that every single time I stepped into the ring with him, I learned something new. He always had something to teach you from his many years of wrestling experience and never gave you a reason to doubt his reasons for doing things the way he did.
There wasn’t one hold he couldn’t apply or reverse with ease and training with him only did better for my ring experience and knowledge of the reasons moves are done, or “psychology”. Although he’s built like a truck and has the face of a convicted serial killer, he’d never hurt you, well, unless you deserved it.
When I say entertaining, I’m referring to the way he would teach. He had these odd analogies that would tie in with everything and every time you saw him, he had a new one for you. For example, he would say that a wrestling match is a lot like eating.
Bodybuilder, personal trainer, stuntman, and former professional wrestler who went under the stage name The Equalizer. He is known for his developments in the field of muscle memory; he also had Ric’s Corner YouTube channel, which includes interviews with celebrity guests. He played Demi Hulk on the Incredible Hulk TV series.
Drasin’s interests in bodybuilding, powerlifting, weightlifting, and guitar playing started in junior high school. When he was in high school, he formed a band known as The Epics, who were featured at YMCA Day at the Hollywood Bowl in 1960. About three months later, The Epics competed in a Battle of the Bands contest at the Hollywood Palladium, placing second out of about 200 bands.
One of the prizes was a one-year recording contract with Capitol Records. Capitol Records changed the name of The Epics to The Hollywood Vines, who recorded two cruising songs, “Cruisin’” and “When Johnny Comes Slidin’ Home.” The 45 rpm record (Capitol Records reference number 4511) was released in 1961.
Although the record was a success, the band drifted apart as the members grew into adulthood. Drasin enlisted in the Army Reserves for eight years and was inducted on his 18th birthday.
On active duty for approximately six months after enlistment and for two weeks each year thereafter, Drasin served as a clerk/typist and driver, achieving the rank of Sergeant. He was stationed at Fort Ord, California, and Fort Lewis, Washington.
The diets that were around in the 1960s and the 70s’ were very low-carb and high in protein and fats. They would eat large amounts of meat and also consume full-fat cream and other dairy products such as cheese to keep their energy levels up, and strength through their intense training sessions.
With the science of today, we realize this approach isn’t always the best. With such a high content of fat, and little dietary fiber, these diets were aggressive and could lead to heart problems, and issues with the arteries if not watched carefully, but they got results.
They say we are what we eat. Never a truer word has been spoken and you can look around and pretty much tell who eats right and who doesn’t.
I look at today’s society and see obesity all around me starting with the kids right on up to the adults. TV reality shows are all popping up now with those like The Biggest Loser, Jillian Michael’s Losing It, and specials on obesity and diabetes.
I don’t remember seeing this much coverage on weight in the 70s as it wasn’t as big a problem then or at least it wasn’t in the media. Today more people are on the run and want to eat quickly so they pick those items that are full of sugars and fats and don’t stop to analyze what’s in it and what it will do to them. Some gain 100 lbs in no time and don’t even realize it until it’s there. Then they’re on to their 2nd 100 lbs.
When I was in school, we had cafeterias that took pride in their meals and were cooked by little old ladies in the back. Each meal was balanced and came with a lot of flavors as well. Today’s schools package meals and stick them in vending machines for the kids. It’s a no thought process.
I started my 70s diet in the 60s so you might say I was ahead of my time. But, I got most of my information out of reading muscle magazines, which the average person would never read and even laugh at me for doing it. These articles began my structure to eat right and get results in my body.
The main diet for bodybuilding in the 70s was high proteinOpens in a New Window. and low carb. It was Protein to build muscle and less carb to reduce body fat. It made perfect sense to me and the others that trained. However, when you would try to explain this to someone on the street, it would be an argument about how they liked to eat all the other foods. This wasn’t a case of like or dislike, but we would eat for results even if we didn’t like the food.
This diet started way back maybe even beyond the 50s but I do remember in 1967 many of the bodybuilders on the beach drinking quart containers of extra rich milk or even cream. Some would go to restaurants and drink the cream right out of the containers on the tables. This was pretty extreme but they did it. The reason for this was, of course, the extra protein and the fat content for energy, which I’ll get into later in this article.
SupplementsOpens in a New Window. were just breaking ground around then and the main things to take were liver pills that were extreme in building stomach gases and Soy protein, which really didn’t work that well.
Some of us would add powdered milk to our regular milk just to get more protein. I would also see protein cans on the shelves in stores but the spelling was PROTEEN. I was never sure what was in that so I didn’t try it. But, I did use dehydrated fish powder as it was considered pure protein. I wasn’t easily digested and tasted like vomit but it did have its value.
This was considered a high protein, low carbohydrate, and the fats came from eggs and cheese and for some of the other people, extra rich milk or cream. In fact, we were supposed to mix our protein with cream which was the Rheo H. Blair theory.
BackOpens in a New Window. in the day it was a rule that the delts should be much wider than the waist in order to form that V taper. This was the goal of every bodybuilder back then. This is what all of us strived for and it took a lot of work because genetics wasn’t so kind to everyone.
Structure played an important part as some people are just born with naturally wide shoulders and small waist. I don’t have a wide waist, but I have large abs and they have a tendency to grow big, which makes my waist look larger.
Arnold also had the structure of sloping shoulders which made him look round-shouldered and he had to work hard to bring up the lateral delts in order to widen them out.
Keeping the waist slim and tight to offset shoulder development is also tricky because you can work your abs so hard, (like I did mine) that they get thick and overshadow the width of the shoulders. One exercise opens in a new window.
I tell everyone NOT to do is side bends with weightsOpens in a New Window. This also widens the oblique muscles around the waist and even though you think you’re reducing it, it’s actually getting bigger. So then you work it harder and it becomes a vicious cycle.
Back in the Golden Era of Bodybuilding, supplements were slim and eating was mostly real foods. But how did the Pros still get massive muscle gains? Re-live the Muscle Beach memories and discover secrets from the glory days of Bodybuilding below!
Back in the Golden Era of Bodybuilding, supplements were slim and eating was mostly real foods. There were vitamins, proteins, and a few other supplements but nothing advanced as it is today. Even though it was the way it was, we were able to make good gains in training and set the stage for some of the greatest bodies in the world.
We based our meals on meat, eggs, and cheese. It sounds a little heavy and boring, but it worked. Lean red meat was popular, as it not only added size but strength as well. The chicken was number two on the list but today is number one. Red meat is blamed for heart attacks and hardening of the arteries, which is called cholesterol today.
Our standard breakfast was hamburger patty, whole eggs, and cottage cheese. Using the whole egg was preferred as the fat in the yolk was used for energy and not stored as fat. Cottage cheese was a perfect source of protein and also calcium.
Back then I used a Presto Burger, which was a slim, black electric unit big enough to compress one hamburger patty and cook both sides in a minute. This was a handy cooking tool to have in the kitchen. I’ve looked for years to get one, but they don’t exist anymore. They’ve been replaced by the George Foreman grill, which is way too bulky.
The idea then was to eat large amounts of protein and fats and small amounts of carbs. This was not only a muscle-building diet but fat cutting as well, and it worked!
Fad diets came and went, as well as the Atkins diet, which is basically the same diet that the bodybuilders came up with long before Atkins. However, no one is going to listen to us, as we were freaks and people thought if they’d eat that way, they’d get huge muscles. We all wish it were that easy.
His book, So, You Want to Be a Wrestling Promoter, written by Bruce Dwight Collins, was published in March 2004 by BookSurge, LLC. In 2002, Drasin invented the Security Kat, a handheld personal security device. Drasin is now a spokesperson for Gold’s Gym, speaking at conventions and appearing at special events at various Gold’s Gyms. He is also a spokesperson for HeadBlade Razors.
On August 14, 2007, Drasin was filmed by Nine Network Australia for their prime time travel series, Getaway. One of Drasin’s wrestling classes was featured, and he served as the show’s guide for a tour of Venice Beach. The episode aired in October 2007.
In August 2008, Drasin received his badge from the Los Angeles Police Department identifying him as a Specialist Reserve Officer, a civilian volunteer who possesses special skills that benefit the police department.
He trained actress and television news correspondent Maria Menounos for her October 12, 2009, appearance on WWE Monday Night Raw as part of a charity awareness promotion. Drasin was the recipient of the first Joe Gold Lifetime Achievement Award, presented at the World Gym International Convention in Las Vegas, Nevada, on September 26–28, 2012.
With this award, Drasin was recognized for his contributions to the fitness industry as a bodybuilder, professional wrestler, actor, and artist. Additionally, the award recognized his preservation of the history of the Golden Era of Bodybuilding through his current Internet show, Ric’s Corner on YouTube.
Rheo H. Blair came along with his take on diet and came out with milk and egg protein, which dominated the market. His theory was to mix it with real cream as you were getting your protein and fats. Larry Scott, Don Howarth, and some of the greats followed this and built awesome bodies.
Rheo also came out with his line of vitamins and digestive pills, which were little round balls of hydrochloric acid. They were a bit strong and could burn a hole in your stomach if you didn’t have enough food.
In those days we didn’t care what protein tasted like and would eat anything to grow. I used dehydrated fish powder for a while, as it was pure protein. You can imagine the taste; it was fishy as could be. I didn’t last a month on it. It was beyond anything I could stomach, but the taste wasn’t the issue as I said.
One famous bodybuilder would take a raw liver from the market, put it in a blender and drink it. He said he had the best results from that and looking at him, I believe it. I remember a few guys drinking quarts of milk on the beach, which was pure cream.
We also took a lot of desiccated liver tablets, which you don’t see around today. They were not only high in protein but rich in iron and B vitamins as well. Sometimes ingesting up to fifty a day was normal. They were replaced by Amino Acid tablets years later.
Joe Weider came out with several varied types of protein and supplements at that time and many of them caught on as he had a weight gainer protein that would pack on the pounds.
It was advertised in such a way that you could actually envision the muscle being packed on like slapping handfuls of mud onto your biceps. The trick to the weight gain on this particular supplement was the sugar that was added to it. So a lot of the weight gain would be fat.
Cheese omelets and cottage cheese were a favorite among bodybuilders as a good protein snack and pumped plenty of protein into the muscle. The cheese again was considered good fat for burning.
We varied our meals and did add chicken and turkey whenever possible. Fish wasn’t the most pleasant choice of foods, but it was good for leaning out. The problem with fish was after you’d eat it, an hour later you were hungry again. Fish just isn’t that filling.
I did try a six-month program of eating just fish, eliminating the meats, filling in with chicken once in a while, and I got extremely ripped and still maintained my body weight.
The key to our training and diet back then was being consistent with both, but experimenting on different ways of eating until we found what worked for us. Each person has to fit their own metabolic rate and find the system that works for them. It’s really a trial and error thing but eventually, it works.
Today’s diets have changed a bit and there are hundreds of really good supplements out there. There are combinations of protein, amino, glutamine, arginine, and more that we never knew of back then. I can only imagine how much we could have improved ourselves if we would have had access to the supplements of today.
But that’s part of what time does as things evolve and improve. It’s no different than if we had cell phones, voice mails, computers, and video cameras in the Golden Era. We would have had much that we could document today instead of writing about it, you could see and hear it.
But those were the days that I wouldn’t trade for the world. It was an era that you had to live and be a part of to feel what it was about. I can only share these moments and hope that you can feel them as I did.

Here are some interesting facts and body measurements you should know about Lafontaine.
LaFontaine proceeded to work as a recording engineer after discharge and started working at the National Recording Studios in New York City, where, in 1962, he had the chance to work with producer Floyd Peterson on radio spots for Dr. Strangelove.
Peterson included many of LaFontaine’s ideas for the spots and, in 1963, they went into business together producing advertising, particularly for the movie industry. LaFontaine declared that this company first came up with many of the famous movie trailer catchphrases, including his own future signature phrase, “in a world…”
While working on the 1964 western Gunfighters of Casa Grande, LaFontaine had to fill in for an unavailable voice actor in order to have something to present to MGM. After MGM bought the spots, LaFontaine started a career as a voiceover artist.
He became the head of Kaleidoscope Films Ltd., a movie trailer production company, before starting his own company, Don LaFontaine Associates, in 1976. Shortly thereafter, he was hired by Paramount to do their trailers and was eventually promoted to vice president.
LaFontaine often had jobs at a number of different studios each day. With the advent of ISDN technology, LaFontaine ultimately built a recording studio in his Hollywood Hills home and began doing his work from home.
LaFontaine lent his unique voice to thousands of movie trailers during his career, traversing every style from every major film studio, including The Cannon Group, for which he voiced one of their logos. For a time, LaFontaine had a near-monopoly on movie trailer voiceovers.
Some important trailers which LaFontaine highlighted in the intro on his official website include Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Shrek, Friday the 13th, Law & Order, and Batman Returns. LaFontaine said in 2007 that his beloved work in a movie trailer was for the biographical film The Elephant Man, though according to a response to the question on his website, he had several trailers which stood out in his mind, and he didn’t like to choose one. Lafontaine also did announce a few WWE Pay Per View events, as well as the “Don’t Try This at Home” bumper.
The prize is “Carl Kasell’s voice on your home answering machine”. LaFontaine did not win the game and offered to record the listener’s answering machine message himself. LaFontaine once declared that he enjoyed recording messages like these because it allowed him to be creative in writing unique messages, and said that he would do so for anyone who contacted him if he had the time. By 2007, he found the requests to be too numerous for him to take on and stopped providing the service.

In the commercial, he was introduced by the voice-over as “that announcer guy from the movies”, with his name printed on-screen to identify him. He began his telling of the customer’s story with his trademark “In a world…”. LaFontaine credited the spot as life-changing for having exposed his name and face to a significant audience, noting, “There goes any anonymity I might have had…”
