A Goldmine of Strength Training Tips

You can't beat old-school training for real world, drug-free results - and you get plenty of old-school training tips in issue no. 4 of The John Wood Report.

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

I just read The John Wood Report
No. 4.

I'm amazed - because issue no. 1 was
great - issue no. 2 was even better -
and issue no. 3 somehow managed to
surpass both of them.

But issue no. 4 is off the charts good.

It includes articles on:

Breaking plateaus.

Bodyweight training.

Stone lifting.

Hand-balancing.

Sledge hammers.

Bench press training.

Chest expanders.

And a nifty little conditioning work-
out that dates all the way back to
1862 (not a typo - I mean back to
the era of the American Civil War).

Arm training.

And much more.

There's a total of 9 articles - including
3 articles by special guest authors -
each of whom any Iron Game enthusiast
will recognize immediately.

In short, it's a must-have for serious
strength trainers.

So I highly recommend that you sprint
on over and grab a copy right now:

It's a PDF download - so you'll get a
link to the little monster almost
immediately - and that's good,
because it means you can start to
use this valuable information right
away.

Yours in strength,

The Forgotten Lifting Stone

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

It was last lifted in 1715 -- exactly 300
years ago.

The stone resides deep in an ancient glen
in a wild, wind-swept forest in Scotland.
It's a long drive over bumpy roads -- and
then an hour's hike, up hill and down hill,
and across one river.

You're wet and tired by the time you even
find the stone.

It's an old stone with a Gaelic name. Unlike
many lifting stones, it doesn't have a modern
name.

That's because it's been lying on the green
grass for three centuries.

It's lighter than the famous Inver Stone --
perhaps 240 pounds -- and it has some
sharp edges and gripping points.

But it's covered in thick, damp moss. When
you see it from a distance, it almost looks
like a wild animal with a thick coat of shaggy,
mottled fur.

A tall, broad shouldered man tightened his
lifting belt and approached the stone.

His goal was to be the first man in 300 years
to lift the stone.

Peter Martin, an historian and the guardian of
of the traditional nature stones, stood close,
watching intently. It was Peter who had found
the stone's location by pouring through a series
of old Gaelic texts.

Faded words on yellowed paper had revealed
the secret.

That, and plenty of hiking, climbing and
searching!

I like to think that somewhere in the distance
a stag stood silently and watched the men --
just as its ancestors had watched other men
battle the stone three centuries before.

The stone lifter stepped forward.

The battle was on!

Yes, it's a true story.

It happened several months ago -- and the
lifter was one of your fellow Dinosaurs.
After 300 years a Dinosaur was the very first
man to try to lift the massive, moss-covered
stone.

And that means that the entire Dinosaur Nation
was right there cheering him on!

Man versus stone.

It's an epic battle -- but who will win?

The answer is in issue no. 4 of the Dinosaur Files
Quarterly -- immediately after an article in which
the World's Strongest English Professor tells how
he trained to close the world-famous no. 3
gripper.

Those are just two of the terrific articles in this
issue of the Dinosaur Files Quarterly -- making
it a MUST READ for Dinos everywhere.

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

Yours in strength,

Stone Lifting in Scotland

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

We just released issue no. 2 of the Dinosaur
Files Quarterly as a Kindle e-book.

The little monster came out in hard copy in
March, just as we were dipping our toe into
the e-book waters and giving them a try, and
we only now had a chance to get it up on
Kindle.

Here's the link:

http://www.brookskubik.com/dinosaurquarterly_02_kindle.html

The cover photo features longtime Dino
Pewter Jensen during a recent stone lifting
tour in Scotland, where he tackled 11 of the
legendary Scottish lifting stones -- including
the world famous Inver Stone.

In fact, the cover photo shows Peter lifting
the mighty Inver Stone -- which is something
that very few men have been able to do.

Peter's a big man, but the Inver Stone dwarfs
him. So if you want to see what the Inver
Stone looks like -- and just how massive it is,
head on over to our Kindle page and take a
look!

By the way, Peter also wrote a terrific article
aboput how to train for stone lifting. That's
in issue no. 3 of the Dinosaur Files Quarterly.

And Ian Duckett did a great article on outdoor
training -- including stone lifting and carrying
out in the woods.  That's in issue no. 1.

So we have plenty of good stuff for stone lifters
and strongmen -- as well as tons of other great
tips, articles, and workouts for everyone else
in the Dino Nation.

We now have all three issues of the Dinosaur
Files Quarterly up on Kindle. Here are the
links to all three of them:

Issue No. 1

http://www.brookskubik.com/dinosaurquarterly_01_kindle.html

Issue No. 2

http://www.brookskubik.com/dinosaurquarterly_02_kindle.html

Issue No. 3

http://www.brookskubik.com/dinosaurquarterly_03_kindle.html

The next issue of the Dinosaur Files Quarterly
will come out in September. I've been working
on it for awhile now, and it's going to be a good
one.

If you have any feedback from issues 1 - 3, send
it on in!

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. If you prefer hard copy, go here to grab the
Dinosaur Files Quarterly in hard copy format. If
you want to order 2 or 3 issues together, email
me and ask for a shipping quote before placing
your order:

A Dinosaur Treasure Tale!

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

According to news reports, a man in
Northern Ireland named David Taylor
found a heavily tarnished, small
metal ring in a field.

He picked it up and took it home.

His wife thought it was a bull's
ring and told him to throw it away.

But he wasn't so sure.

So he got it checked out by an
expert.

Good decision.

Turns out the ring was solid silver.

More than that, it was an incredibly
rare Viking artifact. It dated back 
to sometime between 950 and 1100.

It's an honest to goodness piece
of history -- and it's a very
valuable piece of treasure.

And what was David Taylor doing when
he found the silver ring?

According to the news reports, he
was lifting stones in a field owned
by his brother-in-law.

Note the wording.

Not moving stones. Not removing stones.
Not digging stones. Not building stone
fences.

He was LIFTING stones.

That sounds an awful lot like Dinosaur
Training -- and if that's what he was
doing, it's more proof that Dino Training
always brings good results!

So keep that in mind the next time you
train. Look around the weight stack extra
closely. You never know what you might
find.

Heck, it might even be better than a silver
ring.

It might be a gold medal.

And that would be pretty darn good.

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

Yours in strength,

Brooks Kubik

making people big and strong ever since.
