More Updates From Sandow Plus

July 29th, 2009 | Category: Training

The Sandowplus site recently added another Bob Hoffman text.

The Secrets of Strength and Development was originally published in 1940, and then reprinted later in 1972.  The book is now available to be read online at the link below:

Online Version

The book can also be downloaded as a PDF.

PDF Download (approx. 60 megabytes)

It’s definitely worth a look.  As is often the case, the more you look back in time, the more you will realize that almost nothing from today’s era is new.

    Exactly. I myself first started weight training back in 92 at the age of 12. Following my brothers rountine that he invented himself because he wanted to be much stronger than anyone else i did 10×10 reps and rested as long as i needed to in between. just reading articles online i find out that this is called GVT or German Volume Training and that it was made public in 95, 3 years into my training. people often wondered why i was so much stronger than everyone else at that age but truth is i still do very much of the same nowadays as i did back then. it’s all recycled info from the past that gains popularity in the present.

    thank you for providing the info ross.

    It’s a great site no doubt about it although some of the pictures look a wee bit homo erotic for my liking. Any new books planned Ross?
