He was an intelligent, highly educated, strong man who excelled at powerlifting. He wrote extensively on strength and hypertrophy. He was behind a group offering courses for instructors.

his quads were pathetically weak according to AJ and his leg extension testing machine

he had AJ run the test twice to be sure and it was as AJ stated

AJ told him that his quads are weak but his hams and spinal erectors were super strong hence his mighty Squat

Coach is Back!

74. He went on keto diet for his cancer and went into remission. He was told he had 4 months to live.

Keto will definitely prolong life in a lot of cases but I feel that genetic predisposition plays the ultimate roll.

In what you end up getting yes but once you get it you have to deal with it. Genetics loads the gun diet pulls the trigger.

I love Anadrol too!

I took 5x50mg pills over a 20 day period last August.  Is that bad?  Will I die?

Invented one of my favorite pieces of gym equipment in the last 50yrs... The Hatfield Squat Bar. That thing is indispensable. Squat with no spotter with hands gripping the uprights of a power rack.. 700-800lb standing calve raiss, good mornings, etc.. Just fucken awesome.

Dr. Squat discusses Lee Moran (The first man to ever squat 1000 pounds)

Collar comes loose and plates come flying off on his first attempt.

Fails and passes out on the second attempt.

Completes the lift on the third attempt.
