Iron Roots Ep. 9 | George Hackenschmidt aka The Russian Lion

share

MANY years ago I got my hands on a book titled The Way to Live.

I loved the book. It was so simple yet so powerful. I was training athletes from my garage back then and I was already tired of the poser, fake BS in the "fitness industry".

I read this book about George Hackenschmidt aka The Russian Lion and damn, he was an animal. He was using basic dumbbell and barbell lifts, his nutrition and sleep / lifestyle habits were also basic. But his results were world class.

His story and philosophy about life were basic yet refreshing and highly effective. The simplicity and efficacy were insightful and this was before the explosion of distractions from social media.

Here's some insight into the legend of The Russian Lion / George Hackenschmidt.
