Hail to the Dinosaurs!
A quick note, and then we'll talk training.
Here's the note: We're about 11 hours into
the big EARLY DINO SPECIAL for my first ever
Dinosaur training audio seminar. The EDS lasts
for 48 hours only -- and during that time, you
can reserve a spot at exactly one half of the
regular cost of enrollment.
Here's the link for the EDS:

Step up, take action, and save some clams!
BTW, so far we've had a great response from
the Dino Nation -- and that's great, because this
is a LIVE program, with LIVE Q and A and Dino
Discussion -- and the more Dinos who participate,
the better it will be!
On the training front, several readers sent me
emails in response to yesterday's post about
John Grimek and the iron bar.
One reader said, "I never knew bodybuilders could
be that strong!"
And that raises an interesting point -- or rather,
a couple of interesting points.
Was John Grimek a bodybuilder -- or a weightlifter --
or an all-around strongman?
You probably know that Grimek was a two-time Mr.
America winner. After his second win they passed a
rule barring former winners from re-entering the
contest. That was the "Grimek Rule" -- and it was
designed to give the other guys a chance to win
the title.
You may also know that Grimek won the Mr. Universe
title -- and you may know that he was undefeated in
bodybuilding competition.
But did you know he was the USA Senior National
Weightlifting Champion -- and that he set several
American records in the two hands clean and press
(meaning the Military Press -- which is how they
did the lift back then)?
Did you know he represented the USA in weightlifting
in the Olympic Games?
That he defeated the legendary John Davis in
weightlifting?
That he won the Weightlifting Championship of
North America?
That he came within a whisker of setting a
World record in the Military Press?
Nowadays, we have everyone divided into different
camps.
You have the bodybuilders over here -- and the
weightlifters over here -- and the powerlifters
over there -- and the strongmen over there --
and everyone does there own thing and stays
in their own little world.
Grimek was different. Grimek did it all.
And that's something to think about . . .
As always, thanks for reading and have a great
day. If you train today, make it a good one!
Yours in strength,
Brooks Kubik

P.S. 2. I'm putting the finishing touches on my new

reserve a copy and grab the pre-publication bonus
when we ship the course at the end of the month:

itself -- and that's a GOOD thing!" -- Brooks Kubik
