Can You Build Muscle In Your 40s (And Older)? 25 Tips from Experience, The Classic & Golden Era of Bodybuilding

Can you build muscle? Can you do it naturally? What about when you "get older"? Your 30s, 40s and 50s? I am not sure why we begin to think it's all over in our 30s and 40s. I have a funny feeling the internet confused you and the fact that I am saying, YES, You CAN build muscle & strength as you "get older", the internet will now sue me! I just saw a photo of Sly training hard at my buddy Gunnar Peterson's gym. Sly is 70! So with Sly being almost twice my age and still looking … [Read more...]

The Keto Diet Circa 1968

The Keto Diet Circa 1968

Recently I was gifted with yet another BIG box of old school magazines. Health & Strength, IronMan, Muscle Builder & Power..... These magazines are gold and it's amazing how I find information from 40-60 years ago that are sometimes brought forward today as if someone invented them. I honestly feel much of today's training is overly complex as is the nutrition. In turn, results are less even though information is more easily and readily available at the touch of a finger or via … [Read more...]

10 Reasons You’re NOT Gaining Muscle or Getting Stonger

Tomorrow I turn 38. By the time you read this, who knows how old I'll be..... It got me thinking about time, training, life and a slew of other things. This whole life thing goes way too fast. Every year I get older I quickly do the math and have a memory from age 6 of what seemed like yesterday. You must make it ALL count. Life is too short to walk around weak and with a laundry list of excuses. Bill Starr has a GREAT book call The Strongest Shall Survive. The title alone hits home, it … [Read more...]

Can YOU Be Stronger Than Guys On Steroids?

Can YOU Be Stronger Than Guys On Steroids?

I have been accused of being on steroids since I was in high school. I've seen guys on steroids since day 1. Some have been strong and big, others, completely unimpressive, lazy and weak minded, using steroids as a crutch to get them results with the hopes of avoiding hard work. The training and nutrition is what count the most if you want results. It's NOT the drugs you take. Don't blame your lack of results on you being natural, that's being weak. Instead, take training and nutrition … [Read more...]

When Giants Roamed the Earth

Original Article by Jeff Everson Excerpt from the book 'Forgotten Secrets of The Culver City Westside Barbell Club' by Dave Yarnell. Before the last epoch of the Cenozoic era, some 65 million years ago, great beasts roamed the earth. These ponderous dinosaurs weighed as much as 100 tons and were over 120 feet long. Some had teeth the size of a child. Most had brains the size of an egg. The dinosaurs died out and were replaced by a higher form of life. Likewise, at one point in time (the … [Read more...]
