Let it be known that on this day, June 1st, in the year of our Lord 2024, Hankins was indeed faded.  Defeated by his arch nemesis joswift, Brian Hankins left getbig broken and permanently flaccid.

Logging in for the first time today and I see I have some catching up to do.

I wonder what happened to all the equipment in the gym?  Hate to think it was junked.  So many actors trained there. Like Clint Eastwood, Charles Bronson, Robert Blake and Carl Weathers. I'm sure there are more that I don't know about.

 From what I heard he taught sets should be done with under 30 seconds of rest and sometimes 15 seconds. No heavy weights needed.

 So many great bodybuilders trained there like Rick Wayne, Arnold (for a short period), Don Howorth, Makkawy and others.

To my knowledge in competition its2 mins

That being said he had no idea

He has never boxed

It is 2 minutes until you move up to open. I would be willing to bet that Brian never competed and if he did it would have been novice - which is limited to 2 minutes

I mean it is 2024 now we have learned a lot since then

What have we learned about natural training since the 60s and 70s? Even the enhanced competitors I see at shows look worse than ever. It's all about big ugly muscle these days.

This guy was way ahead of his time and most of his theories have proven true. I like the fact that Vince was always saying, try this or try that. It was all about finding what works for you, and forgetting the rest. The guys in gym today mostly look like dogballs trying to lift heavyweights all the time. I see a lot of bulking, big guts, and high blood pressure. Vince was about getting in sufficient volume, using weights as a tool, maintaining a good growth pattern without over stressing the body. Asshole or not, I would have loved to train under him. He was shutting down as I was graduating high school and ready to make the trip.
