Hail to the Dinosaurs!
We've had a ton of great feedback about
the December issue of the Dinosaur Files
newsletter.
That's great, because the Dinosaur Files
is a terrific publication -- and it's one of
the few remaining MONTHLY publications
devoted to old-school strength training
and muscle-building.
In other words, it continues the grand
tradition started by Bob Hoffman's
Strength and Health and Peary Rader's
Iron Man.
Most modern publications are little more
than high-priced catalogs for supplement
companies. If you count the pages, there
are far more supplement ads than articles.
And if you read the articles, you usually
don't find much of value.
That's particularly true if you're someone
who avoids the fads and follies of the day.
I really don't care who won the Mr. Whatever
contest this year -- or whether the contest
was rigged -- or whether So and So was
robbed.
Nor am I interested in how Mr. Everything
build 27 inch arms - or how Mr. Double
Everything triple bumps his pecs.
I don't want a six-day a week program to
mega lump my muscle lumps in 21 days.
I'd rather read about real world training.
You know, stuff by and about real people.
The 60-year old guy who works on pushing
his squat to 20 reps with 300 pounds.
The 52-year old guy who makes a come-
back after a bad slip and fall.
The 25-year old guy who reads about Dino-
style training and starts training old-school --
and gains 40 pounds of muscle over the next
12 months -- without drugs, without super
supplements, and without high-volume
pumping routines.
The guy who balances training with work,
family, and community obligations. Maybe
he can only train twice a week for 45 minutes
a workout -- but he gets it done, and his
workout is worth looking at.
The guy who combines strength training with
martial arts -- while balancing a job and
trying to spend some time with his family.
That's another workout that's worth some
study.
The guy who builds an industrial strength
power rack for his home gym and wants to
tell us how he did it.
The 60-year old who suffers a stroke -- and
uses weight training to build himself back up.
The man who builds his son back up after the
kid goes through a year of cancer treatment for
leukemia.
The guy who went to York and trained with
John Grimek once -- and wants to tell us
about it.
The guy with the killer stonelifting workout --
the great workout for the military press -- the
best deadlift workout ever -- or the gripper
workout that helped him close the legendary
No. 3 gripper.
That's what I want to read about. And that's
the kind of article you'll see -- with NO supplement
ads -- in each and every issue of The Dinosaur
Files.
In 2015 we did the Dinosaur Files as a Quarterly
publication. Readers liked it so much that we're
going back to our original monthly format, starting
with the December issue -- which you can get right
here, with immediate electronic delivery:

Give the Dinosaur Files a try -- and let me
know how you like the little monster!
Yours in strength,
Brooks Kubik

to strength training, always keep it real."
