The Red Wagon Gym

John Grimek started his career training at home with a basic barbell set - and so did almost all of the old-time champions.

3. The Red Wagon Gym

When I was a kid, I got a bodybuilding
course written by Bruno Sammartino, the
famous professional wrestling champion.

It was for home gym trainees - for guys
who were just getting started - and it
included some simple plans for building
a wooden weight bench and a set of
wooden squat stands.

Bruno said that all you needed for a great
gym was a barbell, a weight bench and a
set of squat stands.

I wasn't much of a carpenter, and neither
was my dad, so I never tried building the
bench.

But I did build a set of wooden squat
stands when I was 18 or 19.

They worked pretty well - I used them
for squats in the 300 to 350 pound range.

Anyhow, with that background, picture the
following.

It was 20 or 25 years ago.

Early evening on what had been a pleasant,
sunny day.

I was taking my dog for a walk.

And we see the strangest looking thing
coming toward us.

It's one of those little red wagons that
we all had when we were kids.

And perched precariously on top of the
wagon is a wooden weight bench - and a
set of wooden squat stands!

Just like the ones in the Bruno course!

A man was pulling the wagon down the
street.

A young boy was walking beside the wagon,
one hand braced against the weight bench
to keep it from tipping over.

Father and son, obviously.

The kid had the biggest smile you ever
saw.

He obviously knew he had found a real
treasure.

I called over to them.

"Wow - those look familiar!"

The man looked at me in surprise -
and with a bit of concern.

"Are these yours?" he asked.

"No - but I used to have a set of squat
stands like that - and I always wanted a
bench like that. Where'd you find them?"

"A couple of blocks back. Someone put
them out for the trash. I'm taking them
home for my boy."

I looked at the kid.

He was perhaps 11 or 12 years old - dark
hair - skinny as a rail - thick glasses.

Me when I was his age.

"You've got yourself a great gym there,"
I told him. "Get yourself a barbell, train
hard and you'll get really big and strong."

He nodded his head up and down.

You could see the determination in his
face.

"I will," he said.

They kept on going, turned the corner,
and I never saw them again.

Sometimes I wonder how the kid did - and
how much strength and muscle he built with
that wooden weight bench and those wooden
squat stands.

I'm betting it was a lot.

Yours in strength,

Brooks Kubik

The Passing of a Legend

We lost a great champion today.  Dedicate your next workout to his memory.

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

Bruno Sammartino passed away today
at the age of 82 - and that leaves all of
us in the Iron Game with a great big
lump in our throats.

Bruno Sammartino was an honest to
goodness, real life, rags to riches story.

He was born in Abbruzi, Italy back in
1935.

During World War Two, the family had to
hide in the hills to escape the Nazis. They
lived in a cave, and as you might imagine,
there was hardly anything to eat. They
often ate grass for dinner because that
was all they could find.

After the War, the family immigrated to
the United States. They ended up in a
tough neighborhood in Pittsburgh.

For young Bruno, that was better than living
in the cave -- but not much better. He was
terribly thin and painfully weak as a result
of the years of malnutrition during the War.

At age 14, he weighed 95 pounds.

That's not good when you're an immigrant
kid living in a tough part of town.

So Bruno started lifting weights.

Later, as he grew stronger, he began wrestling.

The training program worked.

At age 21, he weighed 265 pounds, with 20
inch arms and a 56 inch chest. He could bench
press 565 pounds -- which was a World record
back then.

He went into professional wrestling, and in
short order he won the WWWF Heavyweight
Championship of the World. He held the title
for many years.

In 1961, Bruno wrote a short course called
"The Bruno Course of Bodybuilding."

I saw an ad for it in a wrestling magazine
when I was 11 years old, and promptly
mailed in my two bucks to buy the little
monster. It was a good little course,
and I still have it.

Bruno recommended short workouts focusing
on the basic exercises: squats, bench presses,
curls, etc. Three or four sets of six reps on
each. Training with weights three times per
week. Doing some simple bodyweight
exercises on two other days.

Nothing earth-shattering -- but it worked.

He even touched on the mental aspect of
training.

"Have confidence in yourself!" he wrote.
"Concentrate on the fact that you are going to
succeed and make the gains in physique and
strength that you want. Again I repeat --
never, never get discouraged."

"The reason I made my sensational gains and
went from 95 pounds at age 14 to 265 pounds
at age 21  . . . was that I concentrated on
making my goal. I stuck it out and actually
that is my secret!"

Many years later, I sent some of my own books
to Bruno. He sent me an autographed photo with
a handwritten note.

It says:

"To Brooks Kubik,

Wishing you the best of health, best wishes
always, and keep pushing that weight.

Yours in strength,

Bruno Sammartino"

Yep. He signed off by saying "Yours in strength."

Just like I do in all of my emails.

Now I guess you know where that comes from.

And now, Bruno has left us -- and the Iron
Game has witnessed the passing of a true
champion.

As always, thanks for reading and have a
great day. If you train today, make it a
good one -- in memory of Bruno.

Yours in strength,

Brooks Kubik

Bruno Sammartino Almost Killed Me

 

It doesn't take much equipment to set up a great place to train.

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

When I was a kid, Bruno Sammartino
was the Heavyweight Wrestling
Champion of the World.

Sammartino was a super-strong, thickly
muscled man - and one of the very
strongest men in the world.

He set a World Record in the bench
press with a huge 565 pound lift.

He also body slammed 600-pound
Haystacks Calhoun at Madison
Square Garden.

That's some serious strength.

Sammartino was a real-life success
story.

His family lived in Abbruzi, Italy
during World War Two, and had
to hide in a cave in the mountains
to escape the fascists.

They survived by eating grass and
any wild plants they could find. Poor
Bruno almost starved to death.

After the War, they immigrated to the
USA.

Bruno weighed something like 80
pounds as a young teenager - a real
stringbean - but then he discovered
weight training, and the rest, as
they say, is history.

Bruno published a great little training
course after he became the Heavyweight
Champion of the World.

I saw it in the back of a wrestling
magazine, and of course I sent away
for it immediately.

The course included plans for building
your own bench and squat stands out
of wood.

I had a bench with uprights that
doubled as adjustable squat stands,
so I didn't try making my own
equipment.

But five or six years later, after we
had moved, I was setting up a home
gym, and I needed some strong,
sturdy squat stands.

So I pulled out the old course and
made a set of self-standing squat
stands out of 4 x 4 uprights with
2 x 4 cross-braces at the bottom.

It took me awhile, because I'm
not much of a carpenter.

I wasn't able to follow the plans
exactly as they were written, so
I made some changes and did
the best I could. I figured it
would all be okay.

Finally, the squat stands were
finished.

They looked pretty good, so I
decided to give them a try.

I started light, and added weight
from set to set.

Everything was fine until a set with
300 pounds.

When I tried to put the bar back
on the stands, I knocked one of
them over.

So there I was, with 300 pounds
on my back - and I couldn't drop it
because I was using metal plates
and I was standing in my parents'
garage, and I sure as heck wasn't
going to knock a big hole in the
concrete floor.

The doors were closed, so I couldn't
walk outside and drop the bar in
the back yard.

I was trapped.

Luckily, my younger brother heard
the crash when the squat stand hit
the ground, and came out to see
what was happening.

After he stopped laughing, he lifted
the squat stand up and put it back
into position, and I was able to rack
the bar.

After that, I learned my lesson - and
braced the heck out of those squat
stands with 25 and 50 pound plates
to keep them from tipping over.

The funny thing is, I had some GREAT
workouts in that garage - even with
those wobbly, tippy homemade squat
stands.

My current training quarters are a lot like where I trained when I was a kid - and I'm having great fun in each and every workout!

Now, I'm not suggesting that wobbly,
tippy squat stands are a good thing.

But I am saying this - you can have
some great workouts without very
much in the way of fancy equipment.

In fact, you may very well find that
the best workouts of your life are
the ones you take in your garage,
basement, or backyard.

Just you and the iron.

Exactly the way it should be.

Yours in strength,

Brooks Kubik

Happy Birthday, Bruno!

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

We're a day late, but it's time to wish
Bruno Sammartino a very happy birthday.
Bruno turned 80 yesterday -- and based on
his most recent photos, he's still a very
impressive physical speciman.

For his age, he's one of the most muscular
and most massive men in the world -- and
he's undoubtedly one of the strongest 80
year olds in the world. Maybe the
strongest.

That's the result of a lifetime of strength
training.

Bruno Sammartino was an honest to
goodness, real life, rags to riches story.
He was born in Abbruzi, Italy back in 1935.
During World War Two, the family had to
hide in the hills to escape the Nazis. They

there was hardly anything to eat. They

Happy Birthday, Bruno! And thanks for showing
us what strong at age 80 looks like!

As always, thanks for reading and have a
great day. If you train today, make it a good
one.

Yours in strength,

The Dumbbells Didn't Stand a Chance!

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

We'll be launching the big pre-publication
special for Dinosaur Dumbbell Training in
just a few days -- next Tuesday, in fact --
and so it's not surprising that heavy
dumbbells are on my mind.

I was talking about dumbbell training
with my buddy John Wood, and he reminded
me of the famous contest between John
Grimek and Tommy Kono -- to see who
could do the most reps in the overhead
press with a 100 pound dumbbell in each
hand.

The story is told in Vol. 1 of The Dellinger
Files. I don't want to give away the ending
(or the ensuing debate), but I will say this:
each man made more than a dozen reps, and with
a pair of 100 pounders, that's pretty amazing.

In fact, between them the two men made well
over 30 reps. And that's even more amazing --
especially whgen you consider that Grimek was
in his 40's at the time -- and Kono probably
weighed around 170 to 180 pounds!

Of course, Grimek and Kono were both huge
fans of heavy dumbbell pressing -- and both
were super strong pressers in competition.
Grimek had set American records in the press
(and barely missed setting official World
records in the lift), and Kono set official
World recdords in the press. 

So when they went mano a mano, the dumbbells
didn't stand a chance.

You can read the whole story -- and many more --
in The Dellinger Files -- which was written by
Jan Dellinger, who worked at the York Barbell
Company for something like 25 years and even
shared an office with John Grimek! So he's
got plenty of great stories and great memories
to share -- and tons of great training advice,
workouts, and exercises.

By the way, if you're a fan of old-school pro
wrestling, you'll be glad to know that there's
an entire chapter on Bruno Sammartino's long
out of print training course -- which is a
pretty good program for teenage beginners
(or beginners of any age).  

Anyhow, it's a great story and a great book,
and you can find it here:

Old Gold from the Living Legend!

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

Before I cover the Bruno Sammartino
course, let me say something very
important:

THANK YOU to everyone who stepped up,
took action, and grabbed a copy of the
Dinosaur Training Military Press Course!

We had a great response, and we've been
getting great feedback on it -- and as
I've said before, I can't do this without
you -- so once again, THANK YOU!

And now -- in response to 20 bazillion
emails -- more info on the Bruno Sammartino
Course.

The course is long out of print, and it's
more or less impossible to find -- so the
following summary is "old gold" (to quote
my mentor, Bradley J. Steiner):

1. This was a course for beginners, so Bruno
kept the volume pretty low. You did 3 x 6 on
all of your exercises. As you got stronger,
you could add a warmup set on heavier exercises
such as squats and bench presses, so you'd do
4 x 6 on them.

2. You trained with wts 3x per week -- and on
two other days you did a bodyweight workout.

3. You made progress by gradually adding weight
to the bar. Bruno emphasized the importance of
SMALL increases in weight. Over time, the small
increases in weight would add up to BIG GAINS!

The weight work was as follows:

1. Parallel squat

2. Bench press

3. Barbell curl

4. Press behind neck

5. Upright rowing

6. Sit-ups

The bodyweight work looked like this:

1. Hindu squats 1 or 2 sets

2. Hindu pushups 1 or 2 sets

3. Behind the neck pull-ups 2 sets

4. Calf isometrics

5. Neck isometrics

On the bodyweight work, you did whatever reps
you could do at the beginning and gradually
added reps, working up to 100 reps in Hindu
squats and Hindu pushups, and 15 reps in
pull-ups.

Also, Bruno urged trainees to include some
running or jogging -- perhaps a mile or two
a couple of times a week. he said this was
particularly important if you were trying out
for a high school sports team.

Now, a couple of quick notes, so don't flood
me with emails:

1. I would suggest adding a heavy pulling
movement such as deadlifts or Trap Bar deadlifts.

2. Older lifters will probably find that this is
too much work for them. Consider training one day,
resting the next, and so on. Weights in one
session, bodyweight in the next.

2A. Older lifters often find that jogging or
running is too hard on their knees, ankles, hips
and feet. Other forms of conditioning work that
spread the load and protect the joints work better
for them. See GRAY HAIR AND BLACK IRON for some
ideas on conditioning work that is better suited
to older guys.

2B. Walking is good. Don't underestimate the
benefit of walking.

2C. The above also applies to younger trainees
who are carrying 200 pounds or more. Even if
it's muscle, it's a lot of weight to be carrying
for a 2 mile run. Lifters are not long distance
runners, and they need to train accordingly.

3. After you get past the beginner stage, most
of you will do better with divided workouts, as
I describe in DINOSAUR TRAINING, CHALK AND
SWEAT, GRAY HAIR AND BLACK IRON, and STRENGTH,
MUSCLE AND POWER.

4. The pull-up and pushup variations in DINOSAUR
BODYWEIGHT TRAINING -- as well as the bridging
exercises and rope squats -- would work well
on the bodyweight days.

5. Be careful with press behind neck -- I'd
suggest military presses instead.

6. Ditto for behind neck pull-ups -- they're
tough on the shoulders. Do pull-ups to the chest.

7. Bruno emphasized that the key to getting good
results was to STICK WITH YOUR TRAINING. He noted
that many of his friends started training -- but
then quit. Bruno didn't quit. He stuck with it.
That was the secret to his success.

All in all, this was a basic, simple course for
beginners -- back when weight training was new
to most people -- and it did an excellent job
of getting young guys started the right way.

I don't know how many guys got into training as
a result of this little course -- and I don't
know how many tons of muscle it built or how
much lifting power it developed -- or how
many star athletes it created -- but I bet
the results would surprise us!

Oh, and before I forget -- my buddy Jan Dellinger
got started with this very same course "back in
the day." He covers it in detail in a chapter
in THE DELLINGER FILES, VOL. I. You can find
it here:

http://www.oldtimestrongman.com/products/dellinger-files-volume-i-0

As always, thanks for reading, and have a
great day. if you train today, make it a good
one!

Thing No. 2 -- in response to numerous
questions, yes, I am doing seminars this
year in the USA. If you'd like to attend
a Dino Training seminar, do this:

1. Send me an email with your name, age,
where you live and what cities are close
enough to travel to to see a seminar.

2. Let me know what topics you'd like me
to cover.

3. Let me know of any good gyms to hold a
seminar at.

I'm compiling responses, and I'll plan to go
to the places where there's the highest
response, so if the idea of a seminar sounds
good to you (and it sure sounds good to
me --- I want to meet as many Dinos as I
can) -- then step up and let me hear from
you asap!

Thing No. 3. Yes, yes, yes -- I'll give you
some more info about the Bruno Sammartino
course I mentioned in an email message over
the weekend.

Be looking for it tomorrow!

Old-School Training with Bruno Sammartino!

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

When I was a kid, I was a huge fan of
pro wrestling. I bought all the wrestling
magazines I could find (Wrestling review
and The Ring Wrestler were favorites),
and I watched the AWA matches on UHF
TV.

I saw Crusher and Bruiser, Verne Gagne,
Billy Red Lyons, Red Bastien, Luis Martinez,
Wilbur Snyder, Prince Pullens, Yukon Moose
Cholak and Eduardo Carpontier. I cheered
for all of them.

But I never saw my favorite wrestler on
TV. I only read about him in the magazines.

He was Bruno Sammartino, the Italian
Strongman who ruled the WWWF (the predecessor
to the WWE) for many long and glorious years.

Bruno was a thickly muscled weightlifter
and powerlifter, who had set a world record
in the bench press with a whopping 565 pounds.

They said he was the strongest man in wrestling,
and he sure looked like it.

One day, I was reading a wrestling magazine,
and I spotted an ad for a training course that
Bruno had written. Needless to say, I ordered
the little monster immediately.

The course was great. It combined weight training
and bodyweight exercises. You lifted three times
per week and did the bodyweight course on two other
days.

Bruno also suggested that you do some running if
you planned to go out for any high school sports.

For a teenager, that was pretty good advice.

An older trainee would find it tough to hit three
weight training workouts, two bodyweight workouts
AND do some running. It would work better to do
2 weight training workouts and one bodyweight
workout -- or to train three times per week or
every other day and alternate between weight work
and bodyweight work. The running (or other cardio)
could come in on off days or (better) after the
weight training or bodyweight sessions.

Of course, another way of doing things is to
combine weight work and bodyweight training in the
same workout. You can do this by selecting one or
two barbell or dumbbell exercises and one or two
bodyweight exercises. Use a divided workout
schedule so you have three different workouts,
using different exercises in each of them, and
rotate between them.

I was thinking about this because so many Dinos
have ordered Dinosaur Bodyweight Training -- and
many of them have been combining bodyweight
workouts with weight training workouts.

I go into more detail on how to do it in
Dinosaur Bodyweight Training -- and I even
include a special bonus that gives you step
by step instruction on how to combine the two
training methods.

So I guess we're carrying on a time-tested and
time-honored tradition -- one that goes back to
the original Bruno Sammartino Course (and even
earlier).

Serious iron. Serious bodyweight training. They're
both great. Put them together, and you have
something that's double great.

As always, thanks for reading, and have a great
day. If you train today, make it a good one!

Yours in strength,

Brooks Kubik
