Not much has changed

I am 65, started lifting when I was 13, and lived in Reading Pa. Some old time strong men lived there named the Good Brothers.
Bought my first weights from Walter who had Reading Barbell. Became good friends with Walter and started buying machines that he made by hand, and to this day my home gym is still mostly Reading barbell and the same machines I used when I was 13.
Have tried a lot of new gadgets over the years, but still can't beat the good old iron. Also met the Mighty Atom in Reading and became good friends with him also and see now that everything he taught me or tried to still holds true today.
Good eating, exercise and a healthy lifestyle will keep you strong and healthy. RIP all the old-time strong men your word is still true today.
