Frank Zane Reveals Secrets of Physical Perfection - 3X Mr. Olympia

[@RetrofIex]

Frank is so dignified and classy, he has something gym bros lack today- character

[@EscapeFitness]

Thanks Matthew. There's an element of being willing to really listen and learn before trying things yourself for understanding that a lot of people are missing, too. It's something Paul Chek covered in the interview with him. If you're interested, you'll find it here... itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/escape-your-limits/id1321349827?mt=2

[@Ketis1985]

According to Ric Drasin and Jerry Brainum, "Frank was a great guy and he still is" just introverted. Frank is a person i actually would like to meet and with him you could actually have great conversation instead of just small talk. High def body is great book! :)

Bought a leg blaster from Frank many years ago. He called shortly after to make sure I was happy with the product, and I had a good conversation with him...very interesting and thoughtful fellow.

[@pacificbase]

Bought a leg blaster 2 years ago, used, in England. The squats of the future. All gym should have one. I know now why i never liked the classic squats.

[@paulkemp6314]

What is this I hear you talking about? Something to replace the dreaded SQAUT 🥰

[@DexterHaven]

Yeah, I saw that leg blaster advertised in Flex, along with the slogan, "Legs like Zane," but never got it. I called on an ad for Mike Mentzer's training books in Flex and expected to speak to a secretary. Instead, Mike answered the phone himself, and I talked to him for a while. He was out of breath from running upstairs to the phone, he said, so I kidded him about how his heavy-duty approach needed more cardio, like stair stepping. hehe He was a heavy dude too -- into Ann Rand and objectivism. (He was dead a couple of years later. )

Functional Training by Escape Fitness Right. The older I get the more I realize how accurate it is. I used to think it was just a metaphor.

[@EscapeFitness]

What does it mean to you, Vince?

[@vincewarren1271]

Functional Training by Escape Fitness as a psychology graduate I believe it has to do with the way you wire your brain. When you learn a new skill neural changes occur in the brain for that new acquired skill such as playing a guitar. It's extremely complex at first but after a while of doing it over and over again you begin to play without looking at any of the strings or frets. A change in your brain had to occur in order for that to be possible. You can do a mri of the brain and actually see the changes occurring at the cellular level. They grow. People can negatively wire their brain. The same way anxiety can be arguably wired as well. Like Sylvester Stallone said in Rocky Balboa (Rocky 6) "If you stay in one place too long, you become that place." The brain adapts quickly.

Remember, the competitions he entered weren’t drug tested. I know it’s hard information to take in because he’s an idol of yours. I have amongst the best natural genetics of the people I’ve met and I could never look like Frank. I really do feel sorry for people because we are constantly deceived by others. Remember Frank had a reputation to uphold, perhaps he once told his wife etc that he’s natural and now has to keep to that story. Take care
