Impressive physique for sure. My only doubt would be the weight stated.. 99kg at 175cm while showing clear separation between muscle groups is pretty far fetched.

Seems like he has Kamali's shitty bicep inserts...won't get his Pro card...other than that...his physique is and was easily achievable.

People act like you can't get muscular without supps, drugs, whey, etc. When there are guys like him, or dudes Africa who are ripped the hell up. I've seen dudes who have done capoeira and no weights look phenomenal...

MOST IMPRESSIVE physique I've EVER seen for a person back in that time period. BY FAR ! Like an earlier poster stated, he would look great in THIS time period, too, let alone his past one. I'm impressed. Not an easy to do, either. Wow !

A friend just loaned me a book called "Dinosaur Training" and its this type of training that produced Hackenschmidt and others back in the early days.  These guys were real men.  No drugs, just hard,heavy work, good food and the proper amount of rest between training days.

The book is inspiring and not very long but I seriously doubt someone with my (lack of) "genetics" could achieve their results.  All the same, I am thinking of training like this for awhile.  Either that or a variation of HIT. 

I want to give up on exercise and then all of a sudden  a good read like this thread and the book I'm going through inspire me to give it another try.

I would agree, but only if you are a true natural as Hackenschmidt was.  I am too dinky. ;D  I still think I'll give it a try and train this way as outlined in the book.

Well according to this book, while there is no ONE way to train, there is a proper way to train and especially so when you are a genuine natural. The author sites several early strongmen as examples of training successfully in this manner and they are all natural lifters. 

Doubtless some here would seek to belittle the accomplishments of these men, or as the author calls them, "Kings of Strength", by saying that if they had access to drugs
like today's chumpions they would most definitely take them.  That would be nothing more than a severely biased supposition intended to make its author feel better about their own drug use.

I am scanning the pages as I type this and can say that the book is very inspirational even for someone as genetically hampered  ;) as myself.  I've had it for awhile but this thread actually caused me to pick it up and begin to actually read it.  Thanks to the OP for putting this up.

Indeed.  I must prove that I am greater than you and so far I have succeeded every single time and in all aspects to each in their entirety.  You are used to that kind of treatment though as you seem to have gotten second class treatment your whole life so far.  Its not your fault, blame your backwards family and indigent parents. Perhaps in three generations or so your descendants can pull out of this familial plight that has hovered over your kin for a good two centuries or so.  I`m not holding my breath though. ha ha

LOL all he's proving is that he has a large rib cage, a $5 dollar haircut and a face only a mother can love.

other than that he no chest, or triceps either. fuck, he doesnt have much of anything really.
