The Development of Physical Power
by Arthur Saxon
The Iron Master!
In 1906 The Strongest Man in the World wrote his first of two books describing his simple methods for developing genuine strength and power, not just useless artificially swollen muscles.
This is an intimate account of how this man of 5 feet 10 inches tall and 200 lbs. stood the weightlifting world on end with his staggering feats of raw power and death defying strongman stunts.
Arthur Saxon Explains How to Do Ten Different Exercises
While his methods were simple, maybe even crude by today's standards, the author explains in detail with photos how to do ten different lifts using barbells, dumbbells and kettlebells plus ring and ball lifting.
Exercises such as the Two-Handed Lift to the Shoulder, The Bent Press, Holding at Arms’ Length, Ring and Ball-Lifting, just to name a few.
