"The public's favorite male bodybuilder in our third poll was, of course, JOE DeANGELIS with 2,567 votes." (see complete article on Joe's Site.)

The ever-popular Joe DeAngelis holds three of the most sought after and prestigious titles in the world of body building: MR. AMERICA, MR. U.S.A., and MR. UNIVERSE. Born in 1966 in New Jersey, Joe began his film career at an early age. "For the greater part of my life, bodybuilding has been the pivot point from which I've been able to create many opportunities. Before I started training, however, filmmaking and special effects were my first love. I won, or placed, in a few young filmmakers competitions in the mid 80's, and I'm very proud of the memories." Joe is unique in the world of bodybuilding for his enormous strength, a characteristic usually illustrated by power-lifters alone. This quote says it all: "Day to day, workout to workout, no one, and I mean NO ONE, trains harder than Joe DeAngelis. I read continually about guys that squat 700 pounds and bench press 500 pounds, but the person I SEE do these type of monstrous poundages regularly is Joe DeAngelis"( MUSCLE MAGAZINE; read entire article on Joe's site).
