As early as the 1930s, young men and women would gather at the original Muscle Beach site in Santa Monica to practice acrobatics. Muscled men showed off their physique by weightlifting sunbathing girls rather than dumbbells. In 1959 Muscle Beach Santa Monica was closed and relocated to its current site in Venice, where it remains one of the largest attractions in the Los Angeles area.
