Hail to the Dinosaurs!
If you know anything at all about
strength training, you know the name
of Dr. Ken Leistner.
You also know:
1. That Dr. Ken wrote more articles for
Powerlifting USA than any other person
on the face of the planet.
2. That Dr. Ken wrote for Muscular Development,
Hardgainer, H.I.T. Journal, and the original
Dinosaur Files newsletter.
3. That Dr. Ken wrote for Milo. (And still does,
I believe.)
4. That Dr. Ken wrote for Peary Rader's IronMan,
Bob Hoffman's Strength & Health and Muscular
Development, and even (get this) some Weider
magazines!
5. That Dr. Ken wrote his own newsletter,
The Steel Tip, which is one of the best
three years of newsletter in history.
And that means that Dr. Ken has had a HUGE
influence on MY training -- on YOUR
training -- and on the training of thousands
of other lifters around the world.
But what you probably don't know is that
Dr. Ken lived in Long Beach, New York when
he was a kid. He lived other places, as well --
but Long Beach was his favorite place.
It was the one he called home.
Here's a video Dr. Ken sent me that shows
what Hurricane Sandy did to his hometown:

Now, I know that Hurricane Sandy is OLD
NEWS.
I know that we're all much more interested
in the General Petraeus scandal, the Jill
what's her name emails, the UFC, the football
games, Bengazi, the Kardashians, and Taylor
Swift's love life.
But do me a favor. Do Dr. Ken a favor.
Click on the link.
Watch the video.
Take a look at what they're NOT showing us on
national news.
And if you can, and if you have the extra
cash and the heart, send Dr. Ken a check to
help buy some basic supplies for kids and
families that have literally lost EVERYTHING
in the hurricane.
The link is in the PS.
Whether you act is in your heart.
Yours in strength,
Brooks Kubik
