Hail to the Dinosaurs!
Here's a quick head's up and link to a recent
interview I did with Bill Kociaba and Clarence
Bass (of "Ripped" fame). As you can imagine,
we covered a wide variety of topics. I think
you'll enjoy it:

On the training front, we've been talking
about Dino-style cardio -- meaning the kind
of cardio that works for Iron Slingers as
opposed to 130 pound long-distance
runners.
Here's some great feedback from one of
your fellow Dinos:
"When it comes to cardio, everyone always
looks at the obvious things, like running,
walking, sports, etc. People often overlook
the simplest thing, which to me is staying
active.
I lift hard three times per week and eat a
very healthy diet. I also stay very active.
I do all my own yard work and house
projects. I tend my garden. I take my
hunting dog for an hour long walk three
or four times per week.
When I have free time I go fishing or
hunting. I will spend all afternoon
walkimng a stream looking for trout,
or hiking a hillside looking for game
birds or deer. As an added bonus,
whatever I catch or kill I throw on
the grill to make a healthy meal.
Very rarely do I sit on my couch and
do nothing. I like to be busy.
My weight has stayed around 205 for
years, and my gains have continued.
Good strength training, a healthy diet,
and an active lifestyle is all I need.
William"
This reminds me of Jim Park, the Mr. America
and Mr. Universe winner from the 1950s. (No
relation to English bodybuilder Reg Park.)
He never did cardio or much in the way of gut
work -- but he spent the weekends out in the
rugged hills and forests of Pennsylvania, hiking
and hunting.
It was all he needed -- along with his barbell and
dumbbell work -- and at contest time he was in
superb condition: lean, hard and muscular.
So the bottom line is this: train hard, stay active,
eat smart -- and stay strong!
As always, thanks for reading and have a great
day. If you train today, make it a good one!
Yours in strength,
Brooks Kubik
