vince was sometimes misqoted he was against ful squats mostly because he didnt want big butts . in some case those muscle become overdeveloped as in powerlifters . he was unique and marginal . obliques are needed for squat stabilzation so you need a solid midsection for huge squats . . anybody can squat 800 pounds with 35 inch waist .. not anyone over 5 fot 11 tall certainly .

don peters RIP

the story on peters was that he helped arnold out training in his home gym etc in exchange for some publicity in weider's mags. later peters was on tv on the people's court in a trial. peters was a studio tech so whenever they needed a muscleman peters often got the call.

Not that I agree with everything, but he was a smart & charismatic person with vision, not afraid to share his opinions. I loved his controversial articles/interviews in Ironman
