The story of George F. Jowett is most inspiring to all who are seeking great strength and a powerfully developed body. As a boy he was badly injured and physicians declared he would never live to see the age of fifteen. What the physicians overlooked was the consuming flame of desire which burned within the weak, undersized body. He overcame his physical problems and rose to be one of the world’s strongest and best built athletes.
In Molding Mighty Legs we'll begin with an anatomical description of all the muscles of the legs. From there you'll discover what it takes to make these strong muscles even stronger and grow in size. With 11 exercises, many of which are rarely seen today, you will mold mighty legs. This book is one of six in the Molding Mighty Men series.
