Sorry for Delay in Posts. New Posts Coming Next Week!!

 I have had a few emails lately wondering why in the world I haven't published in almost 2 weeks.  Due to some personal issues outside of my control, I have been unable to get around to writing anything, but this morning I started working on part 3 of my Ageless Bodybuilding System.


New posts should be up starting in a couple days, and then every few days after that.

Apologies for the delay!

Classic Bodybuilding: John Farbotnik’s No Frills Mass Blast

  Old-School Mass Building for New-Age Muscle Gains John Farbotnik as he appeared on Strength & Health  magazine      At times, when I need inspiration for an article or just for my personal training, I scour my attic and the boxes upon boxes (upon boxes) of all the old muscle magazines that I own.   I don’t think I’ve thrown out an issue of a single bodybuilding rag I ever purchased.   Anyway, this morning I stumbled upon an article by Gene Mozee, published in the April ’92 issue of IronMan magazine, that I had completely forgotten about, but, once my memory was properly jogged, I remembered using, and had pretty good results.   Perhaps I had forgotten about this article because it was so similar to other programs Mozee wrote, which I used more than this particular one.      The article in question is titled “No Frills Mass.”   It details the mass-building program that Mozee received from the old-school body...

Plateau Busters

  A.K.A. The Total Variety Regimen Old-School Advice for Breaking Through Progress Barriers (With a Little Help from Classic Bodybuilder and Writer Gene Mozee)        “Athletes in every sport suffer through periods of retrograde progress—plateaus, or slumps, during which they lose their edge and don’t play up to par.   Major league baseball players can’t get a hit, golfers can’t make a putt, basketball players can’t buy a basket, and quarterbacks can’t find a receiver with a pass.   Such is the nature of slumps.” [1]      So begins the legendary bodybuilding trainer and writer Gene Mozee in an article he penned for IronMan entitled “Plateau Busters: Punching Through the Progress Barrier” in the November, ’91 issue of that magazine.      I came across this article today while going through a box of magazines that I dragged out of my attic a week or so ago when researching my last essay on John Fa...

Classic Bodybuilding: Don Howorth's Massive Delt Training

Don Howorth's Formula for Wide, Massive Shoulders Vintage picture of Don Howorth in competition shape. I can't remember the first time I laid eyes on Howorth's massive physique with those absolutely friggin' awesomely shaped "cannonball" shoulders of his, but it was probably sometime in the late '80s and early '90s, when I read about him in either IronMan Magazine  or MuscleMag International .  IronMan  had regular "Mass from the Past" articles written by Gene Mozee that had a couple of articles about Howorth's training*, and he was also mentioned fairly regularly in Vince Gironda's column for MuscleMag  not to mention in some of the articles of Greg Zulak for the same publication. There is no doubt that genetics played a big role in just how fantastic Howorth's delts looked, but to claim Howorth's results were just because of genetics or anabolic steroids - as I've read claimed on some internet forums - is a l...
