Last night I had a dream that I was at York Barbell We chatted outside at a picnic table near where John Grimek and John Terpak were setting up various barbells Mr. Hoffman said to me..... Zach, hold on to this envelope and open it when the time Our Nation needs Stronger Men! Bob shook my hand and disappeared into It was a dream but it felt so real.... as if it was REAL!? Here is what was in the typed letter: From the Desk of Bob Hoffman, York Barbell Co. My good friends in Strength, As I sit here in the bustling heart of York, Pennsylvania—amid clanging barbells and the sweat of determined men—I am reminded once again of a simple truth: The strongest nations are built upon strong men. And strong men are not born, they are made. You needn't be a champion weightlifter to build a strong body and an even stronger character. A mere 30 to 60 minutes a day spent in earnest, progressive training—combined with clean, wholesome eating—will build more real manhood than all the modern gadgets and nonsense combined. Strength Tip of the Month:Stick to the basics. The greatest lifters in the world, including our very own John Grimek, built their physiques on presses, squats, cleans, curls, and good, honest hard work. No fads, no fluff—just barbell work, bodyweight drills, and effort. If your training feels scattered, simplify. Train 3 days a week. Focus on full-body effort. Leave the gym knowing you gave it your all. Health and Nutrition Wisdom:You can't build strength on a foundation of sugar and slop. Eat like a man who wants to conquer life.
Don’t fear real food.
Fear weakness.
Fear softness of body and mind.
But never fear the barbell.
We York men have proven this for decades. Our champions weren’t born with golden genes. They were built in dingy gyms, in basements and barns, under the calloused hands of men with grit in their souls. So I ask you, man-to-man: Are you doing all you can to build yourself into the man you were meant to be? Not just for your own sake—but for your family, your community, and this great country? If you need a starting point—or a return to what’s real—I have just the thing for you. ========== I believe Mr. Hoffman would have Loved my OLD SCHOOL 14 Chapters & Over 130 pages of Old School Strength Tips, Methods & Workouts.

Good morning, Gladiator. I have a great reminder for you today..... Yesterday evening I went to my local high schooland got to watch some Summer Wrestling. It's quite simple actually, yet the "experts" keep denying these truths. The majority of wrestlers who were jacked and strong were the wrestlers who were winning. Yep. In a world where the "gooroos" are talking like everyone is "too strong" and how strength is making them slower, I saw the opposite. The wrestlers who were jacked and strong...
Good morning, fellow Gladiator. I hope you had a GREAT weekend and you are ready to destroy everything that stands in your way. All weekend I was in Staten Island for Baseball and I was remembering when Staten Island was known for having a few hardcore gyms. Those days are gone. Today, the "hardcore" are mostly in their own garage and basement gyms. Commercial Gyms are an extension of influencers and too many peopleworking their thumbs while laying on benches and machines as if it was their...
