NEW! Gray Hair and Black Iron by Brooks Kubik
Gray Hair and Black Iron
by Brooks Kubik




Thank you for coming to my Oldtime Strongman Training and Physical Culture website. Before you go any further, I have one question for you:

"How would you like to be able to do the impossible?"

... Or at least strength feats that most people think are impossible - like tearing a phone book or deck of cards in half or twisting a horseshoe into a pretzel, or lifting more weight with one arm than most people can with two...

A hundred years ago, the Oldtime Strongmen could do those feats easily...and they established strength records that have yet to be duplicated, all a century or more before fancy equipment, miracle supplements, and modern technology. I'm no mind reader but I'll bet I know exactly what is going through your head at this very moment:

"How did they do it?...and more importantly, if you knew what they knew and trained like they trained, could you become just as strong?"
After studying how the Oldtime Strongmen trained, their unusual equipment, their unique methods and anything else I could get my hands on, I can say YES, it is undoubtedly possible for you to build the type of strength they had to perform amazing feats.

I know you wouldn't have read this far if you didn't think so too.

That is one reason why I established this website: to keep many of these "old ways" alive and to pass them on to future generations. And because strength training is one of the very best things you can do for yourself, why not do it right and have a heck of a lot of fun too? (continued below)


Why You'll Have to Step Into The Time Machine
if You Want to Build Super Strength

I'll cut right to the chase: I don't really know how it happened but modern strength training has become BO-ring. These days, what is thought of as a "cutting-edge" gym has plenty of mirrors, chrome, and ferns...all useless. What happened to the passion...the attitude...the enthusiasm, and the Soul of strength training? It doesn't have to be this way...It shouldn't be this way...It won't be this way.... The world of strength training has a long and glorious past - and we're bringing it back. Step into our time machine and go back to the place where strength was King.

The Unique Training Methods That Transform
98-Pound Weaklings Into Supermen

What I'm talking about are the exact training methods that transformed 98 lb. weaklings into Supermen. With our vintage training courses, you can hear, right from some of the strongest men who ever lived, exactly how they trained. Get some of our Oldtime and unusual equipment to build unusual strength.

The secrets of the Strongmen of ages past will live on through you.


I'm Looking for Information About..." - that's how a lot of the e-mails that we receive start off. No surprises there, the world of strength training is vast and there are a lot of interesting things to learn.

So, to help you find what you may be searching for - or to point you toward something new that you may not have even realized existed - we put together a resource page which provides the topics covered in detail in our books and DVDs.

If you wanted to know, for example, which books feature information on tendon and ligament training or where you can find the details of the 20-rep squat workout, our training topics page can give you this information quickly and easily. To see it for yourself, please click any of the links or the image above.

  • Lost Strength Secrets - Revealed!

    Some people say there are no "secrets," they say that phenomenal strength feats are just a matter of hard work and dedication... If that were correct, the ability to perform Super Human Strength feats would be a common thing... but that is obviously not the case.

    Do you know even the first place to begin if you wanted to learn how to correctly perform the bent press? How about the right sized nail to drive a nail through a 2-inch thick board with nothing but your bare hand? How about the finer points of heavy power rack work, partials, sandbag training, thick handled barbells and dumbbells, rope climbing, the one-arm snatch, the two-hands anyhow, the bridge press, phone book tearing, barrel lifting, or the Human Link...

    If you want to accomplish these amazing feats and many more like them, it will require specialized training knowledge - knowledge that can't be found just anywhere...but it can be found here. Be sure to sign up for our daily e-mail Strength Tips in the box below. It will be loaded with plenty of great Old Time training information, classic articles, and more. We also have plenty more surprises in store, so join up today so you don't miss out!

    Train hard,
