Hail to the Dinosaurs!
We launched a new course yesterday. It's
course no 2 in a new series of courses called
Dinosaur Training Secrets.
This one is titled "How Strong Are You?"
The course gives a detailed set of old-school,
drug-free strength standards covering a wide
range of different exercises and lifts.
In fact, it gives two different sets of old school
strength standards, with ranges from "good" to
"world class."
Then it teaches you how to adjust those
standards for weight and age.
And that let's you see how you compare to
the old-time champions -- exactly the same
as if you were in the gym with Sig Klein,
John Grimek, Harry Paschall, Steve Stanko,
John Davis, and the rest of them.
As you might expect, the course has been
selling like hotcakes -- and as always happens
with something new, we've been getting a
ton of questions about it:
Q. When did you start doing a new series of
courses?
A. In January.
Q. How many new courses are you going to
do?
A. I'm planning to do 10 or 12 of them in 2015
and 2016.
A. I missed course no. 1 in the series. Where can
I get it?
It's available in hard copy from me, and in e-book
at Amazon's kindle bookstore. Go here for links
to the hard copy order page and the Kindle order
page:

Q. Is course no. 2 available in hard copy or
e-book?
It will be available in both. We're doing a pre-
publication special for the hard copy, and should
have it printed and ready to ship by this Friday or
by Monday of next week.
The e-book will be ready very soon -- hopefully in
the next 7 to 10 days.
Q. I want the course NOW!
A. Be patient, grasshopper.
Q. Why do you focus on old-time strength
standards instead of modern lifters?
A. I focus on old-time strength standards and
old-time lifters because they were drug-free.
Dinos train drug-free, and they need to have
realistic strength standards to allow them to
set realistic training goals.
Matching yourself against drug-based standards,
be they strength standards or bodybuilding
standards, is one of the greatest sources of
frustration imaginable. It causes far too many
trainees to give up in discouragement. That's
wrong, and it's something we all need to fight
against. This course is part of that battle.
Q. Why focus on strength standards? I'm not a
competitive weightlifter or powerlifter!
I focus on strength because we're all doing
strength training in one form or another.
Q. Do you give goals for anything other than
Olympic weightlifting?
A. Of course. We even cover curls! HEAVY curls,
I might add. Some of the old-timers curled
more than most modern guys squat!
Q. What will you be doing in your next course?
A. Ask me in about 60 days when we release it.
In the meantime, grab vol. 2 in the series -- and
see how you measure up to the great strongmen
of the past:

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. My other books and courses are right here

P.S. 2. If you're an overseas Dino or you live
in Canada, save some clams on s&h by ordering
two or more books and courses. Send an email
and ask for a shipping quote on multiple items.
And for everyone -- if you want me to autograph
a book or course, all you need to do is ask. There's
no charge for an autograph. I'm honored to be
asked for one.
P.S. 3. Thought for the Day: "If the old-timers
did it without drugs, so can you." -- Brooks Kubik
