Alan Calvert

Posted on Friday, October 7th, 2016 by John Wood

A very rare picture of Milo Barbell Company founder and noted strength author Alan Calvert. Calvert established the Milo Barbell company in 1902, one of the very first training publications “Strength” Magazine in 1914, wrote several training books and courses and helped pave the way for thousands of trainees to develop size and strength.

Gotta love those classic ‘bells!
