Now that 2024 is behind us, I thought I would do a "Top 10" post for the start of 2025.  Many of you may be knee-deep at the moment in trying to achieve some of your New Year's resolutions - assuming you haven't quit already😏.  Well, if getting big and/or strong is at the top of your list of resolutions, perhaps some of the following essays and articles from last year might help.


The following were the top 10 most read posts from 2024:

Muscle-Building Made Easy (No, Really!)

  Some Simple Methods and Workouts for Easy Mass Gains My son Garrett displays the kind of NATURAL physique that can be built using the methods in this article.      Modern lifters can often be quite confused about what makes for an effective, result-producing workout.  They think that if their training is “hard” or if it fatigues their whole body or if their muscles “burn” during a tough set or if their workouts made them sweat profusely—I could go on and on—then, surely, that must mean that their training is effective.  But this simply isn’t true.  Now, don’t get me wrong, it could very well be that a “good” workout program does contain some of the above “symptoms” but not necessarily.  Let me explain.      When lifters train under my personal direction—and this is especially true for any bodybuilders that I’ve worked with—they are often doubtful that what I have them doing will be effective.  Sometim...

Full-Body Workouts - Variety and Specialization

       I have been a voracious reader since I was quite young.  So, it only made sense that when I started lifting weights seriously in the late ‘80s that I would read bodybuilding magazines.  And I did.  A lot of them.  Starting in 1989, I’m pretty sure that each month I scoured the magazine stands for every magazine that came out.  IronMan , MuscleMag International , Muscular Development , Flex , and lesser known rags (at least, today they’re lesser known) such as Dan Lurie’s Muscle Training Illustrated and the natural bodybuilding magazine aptly titled Natural Bodybuilding and Fitness were some of my regular reads.  I couldn’t afford to actually buy all of the magazines at the time, which meant that I would sometimes hang out at the local grocery store or drug store’s magazine stands for hours so I could read the magazines from cover to cover.  If I did manage to scrounge up the money for a magazine or two, I almost ...

The Pure Power Program

 Before we get started here, sorry for the delay in posts.  I have had some "personal issues" that have kept me away from writing and was on vacation all of last week.  However, I hope the following article - which I have been working on for the last few days - will more than make up for it.  Also, please look for regular posts the remainder of the month (and the year).  With that out of the way... An East-Meets-West Powerlifting Program for Out-of-this-World Strength Gains Here I am pulling over 500 pounds over twenty years ago. My Uncle Kirk - who can still deadlift 400 pounds at 74 years young - is in the red singlet in the background shouting me on.       The following program is one that I have been experimenting with for a few weeks.  So far, the results have been quite good—good enough that I decided it was time to write an article about it.  Typically I don’t write about a powerlifting program until I’ve had longer to ...
