P.S. For those interested, someone posted the bulk of Starr's "Defying Gravity" here -
http://www.scribd.com/doc/97220394/Defying-Gravity-Bill-Starr#scribd .
It's somewhat of a forgotten classic, mostly about pre-contest preparation. It's a very good read for the novice lifter, or those that just like reading about ye olden days.

RIP

Loved his drumming. Peace and love.

One of the pioneers of the NFL strength and conditioning coaches. His advice was always old school and effective. He said for football players the fundamentals is a squat, a power exercise like a clean or snatch and a pressing motion. Anything else was just extra.
