Hail to the Dinosaurs!
Tomorrow's the 4th of July, so it's almost
time to say "Happy Birthday to Uncle Sam!"
But if I were able to do it, I'd do more
than merely wish him "Happy Birthday!"
I'd make it the very best birthday ever.
So here's my birthday wish to Uncle Sam:
I wish him a country full of hard-training,
hard-charging Dinosaurs!
We'd start by building great gyms everywhere.
In every neighborhood across the entire
country. And we'd throw in plenty of home
gyms, as well.
They'd be Dinosaur Gyms -- old-school,
heavy iron, and please use plenty of chalk!
They'd have lifting platforms.
Squat stands.
Power racks.
Barbells.
Dumbbells.
Kettlebells.
Thick bars.
An outside training area with plenty of
strongman equipment.
An area for bodyweight training -- complete
with pull-up bars, rings and ropes.
The folks who ran the gyms would be serious
lifters. They'd all have memorized Dinosaur
Training, and they'd teach the gym members
the right way to train. In fact, they'd make
Dinosaur Training mandatory reading for
everyone!
And no, there wouldn't be any chrome -- or
ferns -- and no mirrors -- and no cardio
theater.
It would be the kind of place where a
Dinosaur would want to train. Heck, just
thinking about it makes me want to go out
and hit the iron!
Unfortunately, we can't wave a magic wand
and make it happen overnight.
We have to do it one gym at a time -- and
we have to do it one lifter at a time. But
if we all work together, and if we all help
to spread the word about the incredible
benefits of old-school strength training,
then someday in the not too distant future
that birthday dream may become a reality.
You can help the cause. You can help by
spreading the word -- by demonstrating just
how effective Dino style training can be --
and by inspiring others to start training
Dino style.
Happy Birthday, Uncle Sam! I hope it's a
great one!
As always, thanks for reading, and have a
great day -- and a great 4th of July! If
you train today (or tomorrow), make it a
good one!
Yours in strength,
Brooks Kubik
