"It was the fall of '88 and a few of us had gathered in the back room of San Francisco's Sports Palace to watch the U.S. weightlifting team take its final workout before leaving for the Seoul Olympics. I started chatting with a fellow who was studying the lifting photos plastered all over the walls and ceiling of this celebrated gym, and before long I said, "Hey, aren't you that guy who has been writing those stories for Powerlifting USA?" He admitted that he was and that's how I met Paul Kelso.
Those stories are what this book is all about--good old basic powerlifting advice wrapped up in a funny tale that will give you a chance to brush up on how to go Texan, while boosting your bench press or teaching some kids how to deadlift more than they can curl. If you're trying to get going in powerlifting, here's one book that's definitely worth reading."
-Randall J. Strossen, Ph.D., author of Super Squats
"I have long awaited Paul Kelso's tales about Texas madness and powerlifting. In the tradition of Paschall, McCallum, and others, Kelso knows the nuts and bolts of effective training and in Lope Delk, has the character to make the dissemination of training information entertaining, informative, and effective. A great read and great information."
-Dr. Ken E. Leistner, Iron Island Gym
