Two New Articles



















First, in the February '11 issue of Planet Muscle, I have an article entitled "400 Pound Bench and 50" Chest." What makes this one unique is that it's actually a re-print of one that I already had in PM about a year ago. However, they said that it was "hands down, their most popular article of the last two years." Their words, not mine. Pretty cool.

And, in the February '11 issue of Iron Man, I have an article entitled "X-Factor Arm Workouts." I don't usually write "body part training" articles, so if I did, then you know it's going to be different.

    Cool man!! I will check it out! BTW, no doubt about your articles being the best! I always loved your Ironman article where you talked about the truth about over-training - I didn't know nothing about lifting back then

Old-School Muscle Building Methods - Pat Casey, King of the Powerlifters

       The following is an excerpt from my upcoming book, currently titled "The Book of Old-School Bodybuilding Methods."  (It's my tentative title, so it could change.)  This is the chapter on Pat Casey.  It's a revision of a much earlier article that I posted in 2017.  I am posting this excerpt for a couple of reasons.  One, obviously, is to drum up interest in my new book.  The second is to demonstrate how different this one is from the earlier article.  Although most of the chapters in my book are revisions of articles I have already written for the blog, I have added a good bit to each one, and revised them so that they are, I believe, MUCH better than what I originally wrote, meaning that I think you will want to purchase the book even if I have articles already available on most of the book's subjects.      With that out of the way, here is Chapter 11 of my upcoming book: Pat Casey, King of the Powerlifters... ...

Marvin Eder’s Mass-Building Methods

  The Many and Varied Mass-Building Methods of Power Bodybuilding’s G.O.A.T. Eder as he appeared in my article "Full Body Workouts" for IronMan  magazine.      In many ways, the essay you are now reading is the one that has had the “longest time coming.”  I have no clue why it has taken me this long to write an article specifically on Marvin Eder, especially considering the fact that I have long considered him the greatest bodybuilder cum strength athlete of all friggin’ time .  In fact, over 20 years ago, I wrote this in the pages of IronMan magazine: In my opinion, the greatest all-around bodybuilder, powerlifter and strength athlete ever to walk the planet, Eder had 19-inch arms at a bodyweight of 198. He could bench 510, squat 550 for 10 reps and do a barbell press with 365. He was reported to have achieved the amazing feat of cranking out 1,000 dips in only 17 minutes. Imagine doing a dip a second for 17 minutes. As Gene Mozee once put ...

Big Beyond Belief, HIT, Phil Hernon, and Other Things from the '90s

     Before you even begin this post, let me warn you: it may be one of the most rambling things I’ve written.   This is primarily because I’m not sure if I know exactly what the hell I’m going to say—which has never exactly stopped me in the past, mind you—but I do have several things on my mind as of late.   (Add to the fact that I’ve not written too much in the last few weeks, and so I knew I needed to get something on my blog.)      It all started a few days ago when my friend Josh texted me—I hate texting, but I must admit that it has become a pretty good way to communicate with friends who live several states away—and wanted to know if I remembered the book “Big Beyond Belief” from the mid to late ‘90s, and wanted to know what I thought/think about it.   Did I remember it?   Heck, yeah, I remembered it, I proceeded to tell him.   Hell, I shelled out a hefty $50 for the thing, at a time when I had l...
