When I was at the Marion YMCA, the father of a fourteen year-old started training with the Olympic lifting team three nights a week. The father was an excellent coach who had produced two state champions. His boy was not in the least athletic and had difficulty in doing the basic movements. It was obvious that he would never excel at Olympic lifting, so his father pushed him to do well in powerlifting, which was gaining in popularity across Indiana at that time.

Which was fine – pick a sport and do your utmost to get better at it. The problem was he could not do a full squat properly, regardless of how much weight was on the bar. His back would invariably round when he brought the bar through the middle. It was a glaring form fault, yet his father was so intent that he squat 300 pounds that he kept adding more and more weight regardless of how ugly his technique was. Some of us would turn our heads away when the boy squatted. It was that bad. And the father got his wish. The boy did indeed squat 300 pounds, in what appeared to be more of a goodmorning that an actual squat. The father’s joy was short-lived, however. While performing that personal record, his son strained his middle and lower back. We never saw him in the weight room again. Blame weight training? I think not. Blame a blind, overzealous father? You bet.​

המאמרים שלו מעולים וברובם מאוד טכניים ומתאימים למתאמנים מתקדמים יותר

לאחרונה יש לו מאמרים עם קצת סיפורים
ויש לו את הכמה הפופוליסטיים והם בודדים
