It was the mid 80s and Muscular Development magazine was featuring a series of articles from Dr. Ken Leistner. This was the middle of Hollywood Action Heroes and every article was bodybuilding pump up work. 

Dr. Ken had articles about carrying railroad ties, curling anvils, pushing trucks and "Thick Bar Bombing". Dr. Ken was decades ahead of the times and before Dr. Ken was Bob Zuver, a UDT Frogman who built what is revered as the most iconic and magical gym ever! 

Exercises I favor with The FARM Bar:

Deadlift 

Row 

Clean and Press 

Military Press

Bench Press / Floor Press / Close Grip Bench 

Curls 

Zercher Squats 

Why the name "The FARM Bar"? 

I recall from decades ago someone telling me the reason the wrestlers in Pa are so dominant is because they have "Farm Boy Strength". 

Thick Bars are not new. In the latest STRONG Life Podcast, I share the inspiration behind The Farm Bar and how thick bars were used by some of the strongest athletes since the 1960s and likely even before that.

Enjoy this episode and thanks to all who keep crushing 5 star reviews.
