Want to take a look at training from yester-year? Take a look at some of the old training manuals? Take a look at the physiques these men had in pre-steroid days? Then here ya go!

Body building isn't everything...its just that being small, weak and puny really sucks!

Stats: Age 46, Hgt 6', Wgt 180 lbs

PR: Squat 245lbs, Bench 225lbs, Press 150lbs, T-bar row 165lbs, Deal lift 245lbs

My Log

Remember somewhere out there a little Chinese girl is warming up with your max!

Have you checked out this site yet? It has a WEALTH of old school stuff! Old flyers, books, manuals etc. These guys were impressive. In fact, a lot more impressive than the steroid-freaks of today imo.

Some of the acrobatic stuff just makes your jaw drop.

Those are something, I have never seen anything like that. Now I'd like to find one that actually show Sandow making a lift, there are lots of drawings, I'd like to see video of the real thing. I don't doubt he did them, I'd just like to see how he did them.
