Forgotten Secrets of The Culver City Westside Barbell Club revealed book review

[kinggorilla]

This book is an entertaining and informative piece of americana.It talks about the origin of the Box squat (yes its for raw lifters) rack pulls,defecit pulls,lockouts,dead benches,the importance of the incline bench and much much more.

this book is an inch thick of pure awesomeness.It's got the training protocols used by Pat Casey,Jim Williams,George Frenn and a bunch more.

I recommend this book 1000 times over.

Its a good book but still awkwardly "written" as much of it is copy/paste. The site above is in my opinion just a better resource and its free.

Some cool articles in there. One of them was written by Anthony Ditillo, his family and my family are extremely close. Wish I could have met him, he was pretty big back in the day.

Yep I have read a lot of his articles, he has some good advice on how to gain weight. I recall reading that he used to make some kind of beef and vegetable soup everyday and was not advocate of eating junk to get big. He was quite a thick dude you could say too.
