Interesting link...

http://www.naturalstrength.com/history/default.asp

An archive of early writings (1900s on) on the sport of strength training. I found this stuff really fascinating.

Apologies if this has been previously posted.

	TALO's Sig:"But when do you actually grow? Well, we don't grow in the gym. In the gym, we destroy. We tear down the body. We only grow when we are recovering. That's right, I said recovery. I see it all the time--people beating themselves up in the gym and not seeing results. They don't understand that hitting the weights hard is only a small part of growing or even cutting down. I could train the same all year round and get big or get ripped just by eating different and taking different supplements"
