Have you finished reading? I'm in chapter 2

Yes, but I’ve got a LOT of time, so I read books quickly. I’m on another earlier book of his now, but not liking it as much, although I am putting stickers on the quotes of his that I really like. His writing about working out in his older years is very enjoyable to me.

“Aerobic exercise is out of the question as the equipment is up a flight of stairs.”

“I can do more, but it only wears me rather than repairs me. I ain’t dumb, I ain’t. I must restrain myself, rather than strain myself”.

As I started reading Muscle & Fitness around 1970, I remember almost all of the names he will be referencing in the later chapters in the first book. I hope that you’ll keep enjoying the rest of the book, but I’m not sure if you’ll know some of the guys he is talking about.

Damn, if only he was into taking pictures of all his experiences, it would be incredible. His description of Serge Nubret’s tiny gym is laughable. One thing for sure, you will never think that the gym you are working out at now is ever under equipped or not ideal. Man has lifting, gyms & equipment come a long way.
