Hail to the Dinosaurs!
What do YOU want to be when you
grow up?
Me, I want to me like Dr. William
Bell.
He set an age-group World record
in the pole vault -- at age 90.
Take a look and see for yourself:

And as you might expect, that got
me thinking about older athletes
and older trainees -- so I thought
I'd share the number one most
important piece of advice for
older athletes and older
trainees.
Here it is:
Find something you LOVE to do,
and keep on doing it.
For Dr. Bell, it's the pole vault.
For me, it's weightlifting.
For other Dinos, it's powerlifting.
Or kettlebells.
Or strongman training.
Or the Highland Games.
Or grip training.
Or dumbbell training.
Or heavy partials in the power rack.
Or bodyweight training.
Or 20 rep squats.
Or stone lifting.
Or whatever.
The important thing is to find
something that you like doing
so much that you're going to
keep on doing it from now until
the day they nail your coffin
shut.
And once you find it, keep at it.
Because keeping at it is what
keeps you young.
Just ask Dr. William Bell.
Yours in strength,
Brooks Kubik
