Ted Williams Barbell and Dumbbells Exercise Course

Posted on Monday, April 10th, 2017 by John Wood
If you bought a 110 pound Ted Williams Weight Set from a Sears department store, this is the instructional booklet that you received along with it. Unsurprisingly, the exercises and programs are as basic as can be, but it would not be a stretch to say that a lot of people would benefit a whole lot more by following Ted’s program than most “modern” training programs found these days.

Sears & Roebuck Ted Williams Weights

Sears & Roebuck Ted Williams Weights

QUICK: who sold more weight sets than anyone? It wasn’t Milo, York or any other barbell company that probably immediately springs to mind, it was Ted Williams, by way of Sears & Roebuck stores. This is not surprising when you think about it, these weights had nationwide distribution through Sears stores, something which no other barbell company ever had.

Millions of young trainees with dreams of becoming Mr. America, found a 110 pound Ted Williams weight set under the tree on Christmas morning… and, more often than not, they were gathering dust by Groundhog day.
