Hail to the Dinosaurs!
I've been buried with emails from readers
who are trying to guess the name of the
mystery man who is the topic of my new book.
The guesses have included:
Steve Stanko
Paul Anderson
Tony Terlazzo
Tommy Kono
Jack LaLanne
John Davis
John Grimek
Milo Steinborn
Steve Reeves
Pete George
Charles Rigoulot
Frank Leight
Louis Abele
Bob Hoffman
Norb Schemansky
Those are interesting guesses -- and one
of them just might be the right answer.
As for the gym, the guesses have been:
The basement of an old church in Brooklyn
Sig Klein's gym
The York Barbell Club Gym
The American College of Weightlifting
Yarrick's Gym
Leo Stern's Gym
John Fritsche's Gym
A gym in Sweden (because of the wood-burning
stove)
One reader's garage gym (because his garage
gets cold in the wintertime)
Gold's Gym (I think this was a joke)
"John Davis World Champion Training Headquarters"
(from several readers of the legacy of Iron books)
Eastside Barbell Club
The Harlem YMCA
Yaco's Gym
The Yeoman's Bar
John Fritsche's Gym
Vic Tanny's Gym in Santa Monica
Saunier's Gym in Paris
Coopper Athletic Club in Brooklyn
Maspeth Gym in NYC
The Easton Brothers Gym
The Sacramento YMCA
Bob People's Dungeon
"No Idea What Gym"
a YMCA somewhere
Steve Wolsky's home gym
The French Sporting Club in NYC
The German-American Althetic Club in NYC
a converted two-car garage on Gratiot and
McClellan in Detroit
the York Bellbell Gym (a typo, I think)
Tony Terlazzo's Gym in Hollywood
Tony Terlazzo's Gym in LA
The Milo Barbell Company
BRUNO'S GYM
Those are also interesting answers -- but NONE of
them are right. One of them, however, is very, very
close.
Stay tuned on Monday. The secret will be revealed.
As always, thanks for reading and have a great day.
If you train today, make it a good one!
Yours in strength,
Brooks Kubik
