I was 15, maybe 16 years old..... It was 1991 and I was training with Jeff, a guy in his mid 20s. He knew I was a wrestler and back then, all we knew was bodybuilding. No Strongman training. No Strength & Conditioning, just train hard, not necessarily correctly. So there we were, on the good ol' leg press. We had already squatted that.

It was a special night with lots of memories for me. The last time I got to watch a team I train compete has been the D1 level, 2 years ago.

Give kids an opportunity to train on their own in a weight room today and you'll see some benching and lots of "chest work" and of course, lots of curls. NO back training. NO DEEP Squats.
