"Is Arthur Saxon the STRONGEST Man Who Ever Lived?"
Now the Iron Master Teaches
You His Secrets...
|
How many men in the history of the World can say they ever put 350+ Pounds overhead with one arm? I can't say for sure,
but the answer is undoubtedly "not many." I know of at least one: Arthur Saxon, "The Iron Master" the man whose one arm lift
of 354 lbs. will never be beaten...
Like Your Own Personal Time Machine
What if you had a time machine and could go back and talk to the Arthur Saxon himself? You could ask him exactly
how he trained, what his routine looked like, and what it feels like to lift 350+ pounds overhead with one hand...
Though
time travel isn't currently an option, you can find out all that and more directly from Arthur Saxon himself by reading his
two great training books: The Development of Physical Power (1906) and The Textbook of Weight-Lifting (1910) -- and they
are as useful today as they were the day they were written.
These
two classic courses, penned by one of the strongest men in recorded history, are now available once again:
The Development of Physical Power (1906) by Arthur Saxon
|
The Development of Physical Power (1906)
A century ago, Arthur Saxon wrote his first of two books describing his simple
methods for developing genuine strength and power. While his methods were simple, maybe even crude by
today's standards, he explains in detail, with many
photos, how to do ten different unique lifts using barbells, dumbbells and kettle bells plus notes on ring and ball lifting.
You'll learn what it's like to lift 350 lbs with one hand! In addition, read about his early family life,
diet, world travels, and exploits, feats of strength, record lifts, and press releases regarding weight
lifting as well as his little known and highly successful wrestling career. A brief biography with
photos of his brothers Hermann and Kurt, who along with Arthur, comprised the famed Saxon Trio rounds out the book.
An eye witness account at the end of the book, by famous physical culture authority Thomas Inch
substantiates Saxon's claims. The rare photos on the front and back cover plus 45 photos and illustrations
inside are more than worth the price of this beautiful 5x7 trade paperback with 122 pages.

The Textbook of Weight-Lifting (1910)
Before vitamins, steroids or plastic surgery, the methods outlined in the book were how REAL Strongmen
trained. Take a step back to 1910 when Arthur Saxon, world famous professional strongman and circus performer
was billed as, (and was!) The Strongest Man on Earth!
His second training course is filled with many rare never-before-published
photos of the Iron Master (He personally posed for each and every lift! This
alone is worth the price of the book!) It's just the right mix of rare nostalgic photos and
practical training information.
Rare information?
What were the Iron Master's training methods? How did he feel about "balanced conditioning." Which
exercises did he find to be the most effective?
One of the only books describing in
detail the training methods of the old-time strongmen of the day, Over 50 pages of text, photos and beautiful
artwork printed on heavy
enamel paper. This IS a Classic Book, especially for someone who loves to read about real
old-time strongmen and HOW they trained.
Highly recommended, 5"x7" paperback, many photos.

The Textbook of Weight-Lifting by Arthur Saxon (1910)

Both of these classic training courses provide a unique look into the past - and they are still every bit as effective today.
Read and learn from one of the Strongest men who ever lived.
Train hard,
