These books by HARRY PASCHALL are considered the last word in practical, honest, straight-from-the-shoulder inside information on building a powerful, shapely physique. Each book gives how-to-do-it advice, detailed exercise routines, secrets employed by the greatest musclemen to develop their bodies. They are lavishly illustrated with many photographs of the stars of the weightlifting and bodybuilding world, as well as sparkling exercise drawings by Bosco which show you the very latest exercises.
HOW TO BUILD A BETTER BODY
The famous BOSCO How-To-Do-It Books were written with just one thought in mind – to show you simply and clearly just how the Champions developed their powerful bodies. All the so-called secret methods and shortcuts were discussed and diagrammed for your personal use. With their help many ambitious bodybuilder was prepared to make the most of his muscular possibilities in the quickest time with the least loss of energy. These books enabled many men who had found other methods unproductive to finally achieve the bulk and definition and strength they had longed for in vain.
THE TRUTH ABOUT WEIGHT TRAINING
Harry (Bosco) Paschall spent forty years in active participation in weight lifting. As a lad of 14, he saw the legendary circus strongman, Arthur Saxon, bent press the staggering weight of 300 lbs.! Later, he witnessed the legendary father of bodybuilding, Eugen Sandow, pose on stage. A former national champion and record-holder, he knew exactly what went on behind the scenes. A professional cartoonist by trade, he added humor to lifting. Harry B. Paschall was one of, if not, the most popular writer of his day as a monthly contributor to Bob Hoffman's, Strength and Health. His various Bosco Books are honestly written to give you the direct benefit of these years of practical experience. Thousands of readers all over the world testify to the supreme value of these How-To-Do-It books.
If any of you were regular readers of BEHIND THE SCENES in Strength and Health magazine you know the kind of stuff Harry Paschall wrote. He played no favorites and accepted no limitations. Each and every book he wrote contains the plain TRUTH (as he saw it) about all facets of the bodybuilding and weightlifting game. What he learned in forty years experience will benefit you.
GET THE FACTS!
If you are wandering about in a maze of confusion because you have read too many muscle magazines, with conflicting theories about weight-training, the best advice we can give you is…GET THE FACTS!
There are sensible methods of training for both great strength and a super-physique. You can avoid the pitfalls of stupor-sets, lopsided lumps, and other false training precepts that have caused so many eager barbell men to go wrong. The following publications give you all the facts, tell you what to do, and what NOT to do. They contain a wealth of usable, easy-to-understand advice on proper training methods for both weightlifters and bodybuilders.
These books pull no punches. They explain what makes a boobybuilder and the difference between a beachcomber and a Mr. America. They tell you how to improve your physique, and how to lift more weight. This is the best buy any barbell man can possibly make.
Best wishes,
Bill Hinbern
P.S. Let Harry and his ever present cartoon side-kick, Bosco, entertain as well as instruct you on the finer points of lifting weights for strength as well as shape. They may mean the difference between abject failure and glorious success.

The Bosco System of
Progressive Physical Training
GUIDES YOU STEP BY STEP TO PHYSICAL POWER
AND PERFECTION
THERE are a number of bodybuilding courses on the market. All of them have merit. Some are better than others. But none of them, hitherto, were compiled from the vantage point of forty years close personal experience with weight training. Many of these courses have been thrown hastily together for purely commercial reasons by iron-mongers rather than by recognized authorities with a solid background of years in the field of physical culture.
The multiplicity of these various "systems" has created confusion in the minds of many earnest seekers of better bodies, and this has been a dangerous state of confusion, because many young men have been cozened by wild-eyed publicity into engaging in certain muscle-bulging practices to the lasting detriment of their physiques. In their eagerness to become supermen they have taken some very bad advice, and instead of looking like real men, they now resemble monsters.
Harry Paschall was persuaded to issue this course by the thousands of letters from sincere barbell men who had read his various books. They asked for a complete course of training which takes a beginner from weakness to strength, from a scrawny youth to physical perfection, in carefully planned stages, and written clearly enough, without confusing double-talk, so that anyone can understand and use it.
LOGICAL COMMONSENSE METHODS
Harry Paschall was a practicing weightlifter and bodybuilder for forty years, had won lifting championships and held national records, had been featured on leading magazine covers. He had trained other men for almost a like period, conducting classes in YMCAs, private clubs, health studios, and via correspondence. He had written articles for many years for the leading physical culture magazines in both America and Europe. He had written a number of books on the subject. It should be obvious, even to the uninformed, that he should have learned something in forty years.
Paschall had learned there is no substitute for practical experience, and his intense enthusiasm for weight-training had enabled him to sort out the good from the bad in the various training methods, and to pass on to others the result of his observations and experiments in a sensible, logical, workable exercise formula that will bring the best and quickest returns.
THE PRINCIPLE OF PROGRESSION
THE great weakness of most current exercise systems is their failure to make full use of the one principle upon which weight-training is based. In the present flurry about sets and super-sets, the vital factor has been lost - the idea that Milo discovered thousands of years ago when he lifted a calf daily until it grew into a full-sized bull - the simple practice of gradually increasing resistance.
Muscles grow best when coaxed, instead of forced, into performing increasingly difficult tasks. Use determines structure. Nature will give you more muscle if the need for this muscle is evidenced. THE BOSCO SYSTEM recognizes this progressive principle, and the various programs are geared to lead you firmly, yet easily, along the road to physical perfection.
MUSCLE POWER AND MUSCLE SHAPE
IT is a curious fact that the strongest muscles are not always the most shapely muscles. Many enthusiasts in their quest for super-strength have spoiled the splendid lines and curves which make for masculine physical beauty. Others have done exactly opposite. They have developed unusual curves, or "lumps" without comparative strength. Happily there is a middle ground. For example, John Grimek combined tremendous physical power with incomparable physical shapeliness. His muscles looked magnificent, and were just as strong as they look. He was not the product of screw-ball exercises, he followed sensible methods all his life, and maintained his physique with less effort and fewer exercises than any other leading exponent of physical training.
It is because Pachall was personally familiar with the systems of the stars that he was able to include in your training programs the necessary muscle-molding movements that will give you the finished look which is never present unless the pupil had combined strength with shape.
FOUR COMPLETE COURSES
THE BOSCO SYSTEM is not just one course, it contains four complete programs designed to guide the pupil from start to finish in his quest for physical perfection. The first course gives the beginner the necessary all-round training and conditioning. The second course adds bulk and bodyweight by utilizing the tested formula for causing a change in the metabolism. The third course shapes the trainee with muscle-molding exercises, adding both size and strength to perfect proportions. The fourth course is directed toward further shaping and muscular separation that will put the pupil into the ranks of perfect men. The courses are fully illustrated.
The Course That Tells You HOW...
It is all here: inside muscle information, diet, habits, rest, in clear, easy-to-understand text and pictures. The 11" x 17" wall charts enable you to see your whole program at a glance, and an exclusive personal schedule on each chart shows the amount of weight to use in each exercise, number of repetitions, sets, method of progression. These Bosco Charts are ideal for either home or club use, for they greatly simplify instruction.
