Re: walking

If you can't walk in public, for whatever reason, clear out the longest path you can in your home. Measure it. Multiply it by 2. Divide this second number into 5,280 feet. This third number is how many laps you need to walk a mile in the privacy of you own home, and not end up on you tube - unless y...

Re: Supersetting

Although supersetting to failure is against Charles Atlas' instructions, they do work with Dynamic Tension.

Re: The Atlas system versus Weight Training

The reality is, the vast majority of us are never going to enter a bodybuilding contest, let alone be Mr. Olympia, or whatever. And most of us aren't going to be NFL linemen. And professional wrestling is bogus. So why bother doing what they do? The vast majority of us will never have the time to wo...

Re: Frequency of exercises

I read someplace that Charles Atlas ran 10 miles a day at the time of his passing. To be able to do that plus the number of squats, dips, and sit-ups he did every day at that age is a great accomplishment in itself and speaks volumes of the efficacy of the Charles Atlas Dynamic Tension Course.

The forum is indeed better with out he flaming and spamming of the old one. The new way of doing things makes those things virtually impossible.

Re: Throughout The Day....

Another thing that makes the Charles Atlas course a great course is that it is a complete course. Those instruction booklets that come with a box of weights tell you how to do the different weight lifting exercises, but they just don't really tell you how to put them together in a successful bodybui...

Re: intro

I saw the Charles Atlas ads in the comic books. I got tired of being pushed around by the bullies at school, and in the neighborhood. I got tired of being a wash out in sports. I got tired of the girls calling me "little boy." So I took up lifting weights for about a year. Weights improved...
