Bodybuilding legend and five-time Masters Olympia champion Vince Taylor is still training hard at 68. Taylor, who is considered by many to be the greatest Masters bodybuilder ever, still works as a personal trainer and stays in great condition.
In two Instagram videos, Taylor displayed part of his physique, training biceps with VT Grips cable attachments. He didn’t share details about the weight, but his arms alone confirm he still puts in serious work in the weight room.
Taylor performed two variations of cable curls with his grips to earn the pump that had many of his nearly 80,000 followers singing his praises.

About Vince Taylor
Taylor turned pro by winning the overall championship at the 1988 National Physique Committee (NPC) Nationals. His pro career lasted from 1989 until his first retirement in 2002.
Taylor returned to the stage in 2006. He competed several times until his final retirement in 2008 as a Masters competitor. Aside from his five Masters Olympia victories, Taylor was on the Mr. Olympia stage seven times. His best finish was third; a rank he achieved in 1989 and 1991, both behind champion Lee Haney.
Taylor was also the 1992 Arnold Classic champion. Counting Men’s Open and Masters wins, Taylor amassed 21 career victories in the IFBB before hanging up his posing trunks.
Many fans feel Taylor’s greatest accomplishment was reaching the Olympia stage in 2006 and 2007 after turning 50 years old. He placed 11th in 2006 and finished outside the top 15 in 2007. Jay Cutler won both of those titles.
Taylor is one of several legends who have shown that age is only a number when living the bodybuilding lifestyle. Other legends who remain shredded and ready to pose down include Robby Robinson, Rich Gaspari, Lee Labrada, and Lou Ferrigno.
