I’ve been talking a lot about squats lately.
And it ain’t for lack of other exercises to talk about.
Honest to goodness squatting, the type you put your all into, will literally change your life.
They do so much for you, books could be written on this single exercise alone.
Before ‘hard work’ became obsolete, heavy squattin’ was practically a cure-all for lifters. They’ve even been known to ‘heal the sick,’ seriously.
In fact, one of the first 300 pound ‘mass monsters’ credited his gains to this one exercise.
His name was Joseph Curtis Hise, and he achieved this feat long before supplements, machines, steroids, or super scientific training routines were created.
Joe started way back in the early 1930’s. With the regular training routines of the day, he went from 160 lbs to 200 lbs before hitting a sticking punt.
After getting his mitts onto some articles about the ‘deep knee bend‘ written by Mark Berry, things started to ‘pick up’ for big ol’ Joe.
Inside of thirty days of dedicated training on an extremely abbreviated routine of overhead presses and squats, Joe packed on 29 extra pounds!
Think about what you’ve just read for a minute….
He already went from 160 lbs to 200 lbs. And I know some are going to say that growth spurts had to have something to do with it. I agree, as a person matures into ‘adulthood’ he will add weight.
That being said, I don’t think all of the mass he gained was due to ‘normal growth spurts. Then again, what do I know? Maybe it was.
But that ain’t the end of the story. Nope, not by a long shot.
I’ll finish off the story in part 2. You’ll be blown away by what JC accomplished. Keep your eyes peeled for it.

PS: Squats won’t do squat without the proper nutrition plan. At most, you’ll only get a fraction of the results you could when you combine proper squattin’ with a personalized meal plan.
