Brand New from Dinosaur Training!

 

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

The name of the game is training - and
to get the most out of your training you
need to follow the right training course.

To help you do that, I'm doing a series
of new training courses.

Each course will give you a complete
training program - including the history
behind it, why it works, how and when
to use it, tips on exercise performance,
how to modify the program to suit your
own unique needs, a detailed Q and A
section, and the exact workouts to do.

Not only that, but each course comes
with a set of workout sheets that you
can use to keep detailed records of
your training when you use the
program.

The first course in the series covers
old-school arm training, and gives
you a complete program for building
big, strong and power-packed upper
arms.

Of course, it also includes exercises
for the rest of your body - so it doubles
as a good all-around training program.

The program has three different work-
outs (Workouts A, B and C) - so you
get three different workout sheets -
along with a blank workout sheet
to use if you need to make any
changes to the program.

It comes to you as a downloadable
and printable PDF - so you get it
right away - with no waiting and
no postage charges.

Go here to grab the little monster -
and be sure to let me know how
you like it:

My Favorite System of Single Rep Progression

Heavy singles can build some serious strength - especially when you combine them with power rack training. That's 440 pounds going for a ride back in the original Dinosaur Dungeon.

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

Two quick notes, and then we'll talk iron.

1. The Dino Files

We've been getting great feedback on the
March and April issues of The Dinosaur Files.

If you don't have them, grab them now:

March

http://www.brookskubik.com/dinosaur-files-march2018pdf.html

April

http://www.brookskubik.com/dinosaurfiles-april2018.html

And as always, shoot me an email and let
me know how you like The Dino Files.

By the way, I'm already working on the
May issue - and it's going to be another
good one!

2. The John Wood Report

I've been hearing great things about
issue no. 2 of The John Wood Report.

It's a monster-sized, 19 page issue, in PDF
format so you can get it instantly - and yes,
it's printable, so you can print it and save it
(just like The Dinosaur Files).

It has some great articles and training tips.

Tips on building pressing power, some fun
push-up challenges, cool workouts, a primer
on the reverse curl, some ab flattening tips,
special gut exercises and - get this - the
Hammer Man's Challenge to the World.

Go here to grab the the little monster:

https://www.oldtimestrongman.com/johnwoodreport-02.html

Also, if you missed issue no. 1, it's right
here:

https://www.oldtimestrongman.com/johnwoodreport-01.html

I wonder what John has in mind for
issue no. 3!

3. My Favorite System of Single Rep
Progression

I've had a lot of questions about progression
systems for single rep training, so I thought
I'd briefly review my favorite way of doing it.

As always, it's very simple - but very
effective.

Start by working up to ONE heavy single. Not
your maximum single, but a heavy one.

The next time you train that exercise, do
TWO heavy singles with the same weight
you used in your first workout.

In the next session where you train that
exercise, do THREE heavy singles with
that weight.

Continue until you are doing FIVE heavy
singles with that particular weight - and
then add five pounds, drop back to ONE
heavy single, and repeat the entire process.

Thus (after warm-ups):

Workout 1 - 1 top single

Workout 2 - 2 top singles

Workout 3 - 3 top singles

Workout 4 - 4 top singles

Workout 5 - 5 top singles

That's how to do it using single progression.

You also can do it using double progression.

For double progression, you stay at the
same number of singles for two workouts -
and then add the additional single.

Double progression is slower, but it's a
very good way of doing things. It helps
build a strong foundation and prevents
burning out.

In other words (after warm-ups):

Workout 1 - 1 top single

Workout 2 - 1 top single

Workout 3 - 2 top singles

Workout 4 - 2 top singles

Workout 5 - 3 top singles

Etc.

As I said, it's very simple - but very effective.

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. For more about single rep progression,
read my Doug Hepburn training course. He
loved heavy singles - and had some great
training programs to use with them:

My Hepburn course is also available in PDF
and Kindle editions. See the links in the PDF
and Kindle sections at our products page:

Train with Doug Hepburn!

In the early 1950's, Canada's Doug Hepburn was hailed as the strongest man in the world - with record setting lifts and spectacular feats of strength - all due to his unique and highly effective training methods.

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

I mentioned Doug Hepburn the other day,
and of course, I got some emails asking
about how he trained.

So I thought I should mention something
for all of the new Dinos out there - and
for our longtime Dinos who may have
forgotten.

In 2010 I did a killer training course
that covers Doug Hepburn's life and
lifting.

It includes tons of training tips from
Big Doug - along with not one, not
two, and not three - but TWELVE
complete training programs.

The programs follow Doug Hepburn's
own workouts back when he was setting
records and winning championships -
but they're scaled for the average
trainee.

I like them a lot - and I think you will,
as well.

In 2016 we released a revised version of
my Doug Hepburn course as a Kindle
e-book.

We changed the title and the cover photos,
but otherwise, it's pretty close to the hard-
copy course.

And then, just for good measure, we released
the course as a PDF with immediate electronic
delivery. It's printable, so you can print it and
save it in your collection.

Go here to grab the course in whichever
format you prefer - and have fun training
with Doug Hepburn!

Doing It Right

Always train with total concentration and pinpoint focus. Make every rep count.

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

One of the things I focus on more
and more over the years is "doing
it right."

As in, performing every rep of every
set in letter perfect form.

And that includes your warm-up
sets.

It adds a very important dimension
to your training.

Doing it right places the resistance
exactly where you want it to be.

It helps prevent injuries - and that
includes acute injuries (where you
hurt yourself in the middle of a lift
or a set) and chronic injuries (where
you gradually wear yourself down
over time by training in bad form).

It lets you train with maximum
effectiveness - meaning that every
rep and every set delivers more
bang for the buck.

It helps you train with total focus
and complete concentration -
because that's the only way you
can dial in perfect form.

It's also more fun - because it feels
better to move the right way - and
because you know you're doing it
the right way.

A lot of people think form and
technique only matters if you're
doing a complex movement like
a snatch or a clean and jerk.

They're wrong.

Form and technique is critical in
complex movements, of course -
but also matters in relatively
simple movements, like curls.

Yes, curls.

There's a right way to do them,
and there's a wrong way to do
them.

And that goes for every exercise
under the sun.

Doug Hepburn wrote articles and
courses about how to do curls the
right way.

Bar placement - foot position -
how to hold the bar - locking the
elbows in place - breathing -
focus - the whole thing.

He covered it all.

He even talked about the kind of
shoes to wear!

And that was for good, old-fashioned
barbell curls - the first exercise that
most people ever learn - and the one
that everyone thinks they know how
to do.

And also, interestingly, the exercise
that more people do wrong than
almost any other movement.

Of course, that may have been one
of the reasons why Doug Hepburn
set a world record in the barbell
curl - by lifting 260 pounds in
letter perfect form.

If you're looking for the secret
of effective training, look no
further.

I've been talking about it for
this entire email.

Yours in strength,

Brooks Kubik

P.S. Dinosaur Dumbbell Training
is a terrific resource that teaches
you how to perform dozens of
hard-hitting dumbbell exercises
in perfect form:

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

That's a one-hand dumbbell swing with 151-pounds of iron - and it didn't happen by accident. Always pay attention to the details. The little things matter.

When Strength and Power Comes in Handy

 

Train so you can handle anything life throws at you. Did you know that World and Olympic champion John Davis (pictured here) once saved a co-worker's life after he got pinned under a heavy truck at a garage? Davis was able to lift the truck just enough so they could pull the man to safety.

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

I got an email from one of our
longtime Dinos last night.

He lives in Northern Kentucky,
and they got hammered by
some serious wind and rain
the other day.

There were trees down all over
the place - including two down
right across the road he was
driving home on.

And no one knew what to do.

No one other than our Dino.

He parked his car, got out, and
walked over to the trees.

And one by one, he dragged and
pushed them out of the road.

All by himself.

No one helped him.

He mentioned that he doesn't
train for ripped to the bone,
super cuts so people will call
him SHREDDED WHEAT.

Nor is interested in abs and
a tan.

He's interested in performance.

Function.

Being able to do things.

So he trains for strength and
power.

And yesterday, it paid off.

That's how all Dinos so it.

We train for strength and
power.

And sooner or later, it always
comes in handy.

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. Our Dino also mentioned
that he's a big fan of the
strength and power programs

Train with Doug Hepburn!

Imagine how much you'd learn if you were able to train with Doug Hepburn! Well, you can - and here's how to do it.

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

Canada's Doug Hepburn was one
of the strongest men who ever
lived.

He also was one of the most
massively muscled men who
ever lived.

He won the Heavyweight Class
at the 1953 World Weightlifting
Championships.

He won the Heavyweight Class
at the British Empire Games
(now the Commonwealth
Games) in 1954.

He set a multitude of World
records in a variety of different
lifts.

He was the first man in the world
to bench press 500 pounds.

He is considered to be the
Father of Powerlifting.

And get this - he was self-taught,
self-coached and he did much of
his training by himself.

Yes, Doug Hepburn was a garage
gorilla.

And in his day, the strongest
man in the world.

I've put together a terrific course
that brings you ALL of Doug
Hepburn's strength, power and
muscle-building secrets.

It's exactly like joining Doug for
a workout in his private gym.

Meaning it's a lot like training
with Superman in his Fortress
of Solitude.

Now, you probably already know
quite a bit about building strength
and muscle.

But if you were able to go back
in time and train with Doug
Hepburn, we both know you'd
pick up plenty of great tips.

And just ONE training tip can
make all the difference.

Case in point - me.

I learned about bottom position
bench presses from Doug
Hepburn's old articles.

And I ended up winning five
National Championships in the
bench press after I started
doing them.

That was one tip - but it was a
good one.

Strength and Muscle Building
System on Kindle - by going

John Wood's Old School Strength Articles, Vol. 1

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

About one year ago, my buddy John Wood a terrific little book
on Kindle - and it zoomed right up to the No. 1 spot on a
number of different Kindle Top 10 Lists.

In other words, it was an overnight best seller.

And that means a ton of people grabbed it and read it -- and
liked it -- and that's no surprise, because it's very, very good. 

It's called OLD-SCHOOL STRENGTH ARTICLES,
VOL. I.

It includes FIVE great articles from Peary Rader's
old Iron Man magazine:

1. Part 1 of an article by Tony Ditillo
on power rack training.

2. Part 2 of Tony Ditillo's article on
power rack training. 

3. A special "field report" on isometric
training.

4. A very interesting article on mind
power for lifters.

and (get this):

5. An article by Doug Hepburn about
training for the Olympic lifts.

So that's five killer articles, together in one little book --
with a knock-out cover - and that's  a pretty good
deal.

Go here to grab the little monster - and be sure to post
a review after you read it:

The Secret of the Old Wooden Shed

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

No one knew what it was.

No one knew what was inside.

Or what happened inside.

They probably never even gave it a
second look.

But it was one of the most remarkable
places in the world -- and it was the
training quarters of one of the world's
greatest athletes.

It was a gym. And a very special one.

When you stepped inside, you saw a
dirt floor topped by wooden planks.

Piled against the rough boards making up
the walls were dozens of thick black iron
plates.  At least a ton of heavy iron.

Possibly more.

In the center of the shed there was a
giant – a massive man with dark hair
and a dark mustache.

He was wearing thick blue sweat pants
and a heavy cotton-t-shirt. The man,
the shirt, and the sweat pants were
covered in chalk.

Sweat poured down his face. His hair
was matted.

His shirt was soaked.

A set of sturdy squat stands stood at
the back of the lifting platform.

On the squat stands was an Olympic
barbell. It was loaded with FOUR 45
pound plates on each side – plus two
35 pound plates – plus two 5’s and
a pair of 2 ½’s.

490 pounds.

The dark haired giant tightened his
belt, chalked his hands, approached
the bar, took it from the squat stands
and stepped back.

He stood motionless with the massive
barbell pressing down on his chest and
shoulders. 

He took a deep breath, his massive
chest rising high.

He dipped his legs and drove upward –
and the bar shot from his shoulders as
if it had been fired from a cannon.

He drove the bar hard and fast – and
finished the lift with his arms locked
and the bar held over his head.

His enormous arms and huge shoulders
quivered under the incredible load.

He held the bar for a count of two,
lowered it to his shoulders, stepped
forward, and racked the bar.

He stepped back, breathing deeply.

The sweat poured faster than ever.

He had just lifted overhead more
weight than any man in history.

His name was Doug Hepburn – and
he was one of the very strongest
men who ever lived.

That’s how Doug Hepburn trained –
and where he trained – and the
type of weight he lifted – way
back in the 1950’s.

Today, some 60 years later, Doug
Hepburn is a lifting legend – and
Doug Hepburn’s training methods
continue to be followed – with
great results – by lifters around the
world.

That’s why I’ve prepared a special
training course that outlines Doug
Hepburn’s training philosophy – his
exercises, sets, reps, and workouts.

It’s all there – and it makes great
reading for anyone interested in
training to reach their absolute
maximum in strength, muscle
and power.

Reading and writing about Doug
Hepburn and his heavy training
has got me all fired up.  I’m out
there slinging the iron in the
garage and having some GREAT
workouts.

In fact, my barbells are threatening
to go on strike if I keep it up!

And I’m sure you’ll be doing the
same – and so will your barbells –
after you read the course.

The course is available in your
choice of hard-copy, Kindle e-book
or PDF with immediate electronic
delivery:

My Favorite System of Single Rep Progression

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

Two quick notes, and then we'll talk iron.

1. The August-September Dino Files

We've been getting great feedback on the
August-September issue of Ther Dinosaur
Files. If you haven't already grabbed the
little monster, do it now:

Kindle edition

us a rating (hopefully 5 stars), and leave a
brief review on our Kindle page. They really
help.

And as always, shoot me an email and let

The Dinosaur Files. The information
is timeless, and you'll want to be sure
to read all of them:

We also have the last couple of issues available
in Kindle format if you prefer Kindle.

3. My Favorite System of Single Rep
Progression

I've had a lot of questions about progression
systems for single rep training, so I thought
I'd briefly review my favorite way of doing it.

As always, it's very simple - but very
effective.

Start by working up to one heavy single. Not
your maximum single, but a heavy one.

The next time you train that exercise, do
TWO heavy singles with the same weight
you used in your first workout.

In the next session where you train that
exercise, do THREE heavy singles with that
weight.

Continue until you are doing FIVE heavy
singles with that particular weight - and
then add five pounds, drop back to ONE
heavy single, and repeat the entire process.

Thus (after warm-ups):

Workout 1 - 1 top single

Workout 2 - 2 top singles

Workout 3 - 3 top singles

Workout 4 - 4 top singles

Workout 5 - 5 top singles

That's how to do it using single progression.

You also can do it using double progression.

For double progression, you stay at the
same number of singles for two workouts -
and then add the additional single.

Double progression is slower, but it's a
very good way of doing things. It helps
build a strong foundation and prevents
burning out.

In other words (after warm-ups):

Workout 1 - 1 top single

Workout 2 - 1 top single

Workout 3 - 2 top singles

Workout 4 - 2 top singles

Workout 5 - 3 top singles

Etc.

As I said, it's very simple - but very effective.

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

Yours in strength,

How to Combine Strength Training and Martial Arts

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

One quick note, and then we'll talk training.

1. New PDF Courses for Dinos

We just added two new PDF courses
to our ever-growing list of PDF courses.
Both courses have been available in hard
copy and Kindle editions, but many of
you prefer PDF courses, so we decided
to release them in that format, as well.

The first is the Dinosaur Training Military
Press and Shoulder Power Course:

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

The second is my very popular Doug
Hepburn Training Course:

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

I know that many of you - particularly
our overseas Dinos - have been waiting
for these to be available in PDF editions -
so here they are! Hope you enjoy them!

2. How to Combine Strength Training and
Martial Arts

On the training front, let's talk about a topic
that comes up all the time. I just got an email
from a reader asking about it, and I've had
two more of them in recent weeks.

How do you combine strength training and
martial arts or self-defense training?

The question usually comes from older Dinos
who have limited energy and limited recovery
ability. They tend to overtrain very quickly if
they train too often. Three strength training
workouts and three martial arts workouts in
one week flattens them.

I can see that. I don't do martial arts, but I
train hard with Olympic weightlifting. At age
58, three weekly workouts of 60 to 75 minutes
are plenty. I'd have a very difficult time adding
anything more to it. That's a far cry from the
long hours of daily training when I was a high
school wrestler.

So what do you do?

Try this:

1. Train no more than 4 days per week total.

a. Two martial arts workouts and two strength
training workouts.

b. Or try two martial arts workouts and one
strength training workout -- or the reverse.

2. Use abbreviated and ultra-abbreviated
workouts. See Strength, Muscle and Power
for more details on abbreviated and ultra-
abbreviated workouts.

a. Focus on the basic, compound exercises
that give you the biggest return for every
minute of training time.

3. Focus on precise movements and perfect
technique in both your strength training
workouts and your martial arts or self-
defense workouts.

a. Doing the exercise or the technique in
100% perfect form is far more effective
than doing it sloppy -- and far easier on
your body.

b. In other words, don't try to muscle through
things. Focus on SKILL.

c. If you need to do extra flexibility work, then
do it -- religiously!

4. Don't try to do the long workouts you did
when you were younger -- and that goes
for the dojo as well as the weight room.

a. 30 to 45 minutes of focused, concentrated
training is PLENTY for many older trainees.

5. Your martial arts or self-defense training
will double as cardio training -- so don't add
much if any in the way of additional cardio
work.

a. Many older trainees use walking for their
"cardio" or conditioning work. It's not flashy,
but it's effective.

6. Use a simple cycling system for your
strength training workouts so you don't go
hard and heavy all the time. The simple
cycling system in Gray Hair and Black Iron
is ideal:

7. Follow the diet and nutrition advice in
Knife, Fork, Muscle. It's an anti-inflammatory
diet, and it will help you recover from your
workouts:

So there you are. Seven tips to help combine
strength training with martial arts or self-defense
training. I hope they help!

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

Yours in strength,

The Iron Will to Succeed!

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

One of the marks of a champion is something
I call "the iron will to succeed."

You find it in any champion in any sport -- but
you probably find it to a greater degree when
you study the great champions of the Iron Game.

There's a reason for that.

The vast majority of champions in other sports
were naturally strong, fast, athletic and gifted.
They were bigger, taller and heavier than the
other kids. In many cases, that's what made
them gravitate to sports in the first place.

In other words, they had a good start.

The Iron Game is different.

Many Iron Game champions were drawn to
barbells, dumbbells and strength training not
because they were bigger and stronger than
other kids -- but because they were smaller
and weaker than the other kids.

In many cases, they were small and skinny
and weak -- and sick.

Tommy Kono suffered from childhood asthma
that was so bad he couldn't run or play games
with other children.He was literally an invalid.

As a young teenager, he used barbells and
dumbbells to help overcome his asthma.

It was hard work, but he stuck with it. Other
kids dropped out of the program. Kono kept
going.

He discovered weightlifting -- learned how to
do the lifts -- and trained harder than ever.
He ended up winning six World championships
and two Olympic gold medals. The former invalid
became one of the greatest weightlifters of
all time.

Jack LaLanne was a sickly kid with a terrible
addiction to sweets. Soft, weak, and pale, with
bad teeth from the candy he ate all day long.

He used diet and exercise to become healthy
and strong.

It was hard work for him, too. But like Tommy
Kono, he stuck with it. He kept going.

He ended up world-famous for his his magnificent
physique, lion-like bearing, radiant good health
and remarkable strength and endurance.

For many years, he celebrated his birthday each
year by performing a super-human feat of strength
and endurance, such as pulling a heavily loaded
boat behind him as he swam the heavy surf from
Alcatraz Island to the San Francisco shore -- while
wearing handcuffs.

Once again, another sickly kid became a legend
of strength, health and fitness.

Doug Hepburn was born with a club foot that
required multiple surgeries. The surgeries left
him a near cripple, with one lower leg nothing
but skin and bone. That doesn't speak well for
a career in athletics.

What did he do?

He began a program of systematic strength
training that included hand-balancing, hand-
stand pushups, and plenty of barbell and
dumbbell training.

He worked hard, and when things were tough,
he buckled down and worked harder.

He worked hard on the squat -- and on Olympic
weightlifting -- which wasn't easy because of his
bad leg. But he never gave up. He kept working
to achieve his dream.

He ended up winning the Heavyweight class at
the World Weightlifting championships of 1953.
He won the Heavyweight class at the British
Empire Games (now the Commonwealth Games)
of 1954 -- which as luck would have it were
held in his home city of Vancouver, British
Columbia.

He was the first man in history to bench press
500 pounds.

He set a remarkable series of records in a wide
variety of lifts -- and is hailed as one of the
founding fathers of powerlifting and one of
the most massively muscular men of all time.

Like Tommy Kono and Jack LaLanne, Doug
Hepburn overcame adversity. He used the
power of an iron will to crash through every
obstacle -- and to accomplish the seemingly
impossible.

If you want a secret to strength, muscle and
radiant good health, it is this:

Harness the power of the iron will -- and use
it to achieve your dreams.

Good luck, and good lifting!

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

Yours in strength,

Brooks Kubik

The "What Do You Do on a Rest Day?" Question

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

One quick note, and then we'll talk training.

1. Train with Doug Hepburn

Last year we launched a revised version of
my Doug Hepburn training course as a
Kindle e-book. The cover is over the top
good, so even if you already have the
hard-copy version of the course, head on
over and check out the cover. My design
guy is ready for the Big Leagues.

Doug Hepburn was one of the strongest
men who ever lived -- and one of the most
massive -- and his training methods are
well worth learning.

Go here to grab the e-book:

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

Go here to grab a hard-copy version of
the Doug Hepburn course:

If you grab the e-book, please post a
review. The reviews really help us. If
you're an Amazon customer and you
have a hard-copy version of the course,
you can still post a review.

BTW, the little monster made it up to no. 5
on the Amazon Top 10 in its category -- so
I need to say THANK YOU to everyone who
made it happen!

2. "What Do You Do on a Rest Day?"

On the training front, I received an email from
a 49-year old Dino who trains heavy three
days a week, and asked about what to do on
his rest days.

He wanted to know if the recovery day
should be a complete day of rest or if it
was okay to do CV work. By CV work, he
means "walking, running, swimming, skipping
rope, circuits, etc."

This is a very common question, so I thought
I'd cover it with everyone.

The answer -- like the answer to so many
training questions -- is IT DEPENDS.

It depends on your age, training experience,
goals, how much iron you move in your weight
training workouts, what kind of CV you do,
and how hard you go on the CV work.

1. If you're training to gain maximum strength
and muscle mass as fast as possible, extra CV
work isn't going to help you and will probably
slow your progress.

a. Doug Hepburn became the strongest man
in the world by lifting heavy iron, not by mixing
weight work with jogging.

b. Vince Gironda always used to warn body-
builders not to do running or jogging (or high
rep ab work) because it would lead to what he
called "over-tonus" -- meaning that you would
over-train and your hormone levels would drop.

2. On the other hand, lots of very strong and
powerful athletes have combined strength
training and cardio work. Wrestlers do it all
the time.

a. Of course, most of these athletes are young
men.

3. If you're a younger trainee, you will find
it much easier to do weight work one day and
some modest CV the next day.

4. If you're an older trainee, it's usually better
to do both weights and CV on the same day,
and then have a day of complete rest.

a. You also can try two days per week of strength
training workouts and one day of cardio work.

5. If you do hard CV -- especially something
that works your legs hard -- then it will affect
your squatting and deadlifting (or Olympic
lifting).

6. If you do breathing squats, you don't need
any other cardio training.

7. If you do lugging and loading drills -- or
Dino-style finishers -- you don't need extra
cardio training.

8. Walking is great exercise and will not cut
into your recovery unless you do lots and lots
of it.

9. Swimming is easy on the joints.

10. Jogging and running is hard on your joints
if you are older or heavier.

The bottom line is this: if you feel strong and
you're adding weight to the bar and you sleep
well and you look forward to your workouts,
then you've got things balanced out pretty
well -- so keep on doing what you're doing.

If not, look at your weekly schedule and
think about making some adjustments --
which usually means, reduce the length and
the frequency of your workouts and cut
back on the cardio.

And remember, there's nothing at all wrong
with making a rest day a REST day. You don't
have to do anything. Save it for the iron.

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

And be sure to take a look at the new Hepburn
e-book -- that cover is amazing:

Peary Rader's Lifting News

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

Many of us remember Peary Rader's
wonderful Iron man magazine, which
many believe was the best magazine
in the history of the Iron Game.

It was good, but there was something
else that I think was even better.

It was Peary Rader's OTHER magazine -
LIFTING NEWS.

LIFTING NEWS covered Olympic weight-
lifting, powerlifting and serious, old-school,
strength and power training.

Each issue was filled with priceless
information for lifting fans and anyone
else who wanted to learn about strength
and power building.

LIFTING NEWS brought you:

Detailed, in-depth, reports of the big
contests - who won, who placed, who
bombed - and why.

Results from smaller contests. (Hey, did
you know a guy named Kubik won a
powerlifting contest in Arizona some 50
years ago? Was he a relative? I don't
know. But I saw it reported in an old
issue of LIFTING NEWS.)

Great photos. (Let me repeat that -
GREAT photos. Many that you never
saw anywhere else.)

Killer cover photos of the top lifters
in the USA and around the world.

Articles by the top lifters in the world.
(Doug Hepburn wrote some of his very
best articles for LIFTING NEWS.)

Tons of articles on lifting technique,
strength and power programs, and
power rack training. Man-making
stuff. (Peary Rader was a huge fan
of power rack work.)

The problem was, very few issues of
LIFTING NEWS were ever printed -
and today, they're rarer than hen's
teeth.

And if you can find them, they usually
cost an arm and a leg.

But you can read them - fast, easy
and for pennies a day.

John Wood is posting some of his
favorite issues of LIFTING NEWS
at the Iron League.

Go here for further info - and to sign
up for an Iron League membership:

http://www.ironleague.com/

By the way, John has a pretty good
collection of other great stuff - and
it makes the Iron League the Library
of Congress of Strength, as one of
our long-time Dinos aptly called it.

He also has 3 boxes of special stuff
that I just loaned to him to scan and
post - and it includes stuff that is
literally one of a kind. Meaning that
you won't see it anywhere else.

I did that because I really like what
John is doing with the iron league -
and I want to support him as much
as possible.

Anyhow, LIFTING NEWS is back - and
it's a goldmine of strength and power
training.

Yours in strength,

Brooks Kubik

A Word of Warning from Doug Hepburn!

Hail to the Dinosaurs!

I was looking at a copy of Hepburn's Law
the other day. It's an old training course
that we offered in our Big Book Sale here
at Dino Headquarters.

There was a chapter about injuries and how
to prevent them.

And Doug Hepburn gave this advice:

"Don't do dangerous and foolish lifts."

A line drawing on the opposite page shows
a trainee doing a heavy deadlift while standing
on a low platform or riser so the lift begins with
the bar almost touching the toes.

Now, some people swear by riser deadlifts.
They used to be part of the Swedish Deadlifting
Program back in the late 60s and early 70s -
and they worked great for some people.

And long before that, John Grimek did heavy
stiff legged deadlifts while standing on a box
or bench so he could lower the bar all the way
down to his toes.

And today, riser snatch pulls and clean pulls
are popular among many Olympic weightlifters.

So don't send me hate mail about riser dead-
lifts. That's not the point - although if you ever
DO try riser deadlifts, be sure you have the
flexibility and proportions to do them with a
flat back. They work for some people but
not for others.

Instead, focus on Hepburn's basic message.

Far too many trainees hurt themselves by
doing dangerous and foolish lifts. It's so
common now that it's a Facebook meme.
I often joke about it by referring to "squats
on roller skates."

But you really do see people doing squats
on stability balls - with a barbell on their
shoulders.

Which is something that looks impressive
(or perhaps insane), and thus, garners a
lot of traffic on social media.

But remember, all it takes is one slight
twist and you can blow out a knee or an
ankle - and that can make effective training
impossible for a very long time. Perhaps
forever.

So why do it?

Why even try it?

Why not knuckle down to some serious back
squats or front squats - performed in perfect
form - with a good series of progressively
heavier warm-up sets before your work set
or work sets?

It's not as cool looking as squats on a stability
ball, and it won't get you a million likes on
Facebook, but it will build strength and muscle
as fast, effectively and as safely as possible.

And remember this - if Doug Hepburn saw
you training your squats (or any other basic
exercise) that way, he'd give you a big
thumbs up!

And a thumbs up from Doug Hepburn is
worth a thousand likes on Facebook.

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. Gray Hair and Black Iron covers common
sense strength training and muscle building
for older Dinos - and teaches you how to

down:
