“What
separates Dave Draper from others of his ilk is the clarity of
his prose and the directness and simplicity of his approach. Dave
Draper is not a bodybuilding star who stands apart. He is the
“everyman of bodybuilding” and he wants every man (and
woman) to transform his (or her) life through resistance weight
training. It is impossible to read Draper and not start packing
your gym bag. He’s the Pied Piper of bodybuilding!”
—Ronald L. Dobrin, founding editor, East West Journal
“Dave
Draper has been a constant source of instruction, inspiration
and motivation for me and countless others from all walks of life.
Whatever your profession, whatever your present fitness level,
the Blond Bomber can help you get the body you’ve always
wanted, but never thought you could.”
—Paul Wagner, Lutheran pastor
“Dave
Draper sets the standard in bodybuilding as a way of life, not
just a diversion from it. He speaks profoundly through his writings,
though it’s his action that is the real communicator. His
books are simply an expression of his living example.”
—Vince McConnell, sports conditioning specialist
“In
these times of false fitness prophets and gobbledygook gurus,
none of whom appear healthy—much less fit—it’s
refreshing to have a true fitness professional of Dave Draper’s
stature step forward to lead by example and expertise.”
—Jim Ganley, fitness consultant, Bow, N.H.
“In
a world of copycats, Dave is a 100% original creation. When it
was far from hip to be a bodybuilder, he quite simply became one
of the best the world had ever seen. Later, when it became not
only hip but potentially highly profitable to be a top bodybuilder,
he walked away from the hype and “scene” of it all,
returning to the serenity and purity of the movement and work
for its own sake and its own inherent rewards. Dave now offers
the lessons and teachings of a lifetime in the gym with the wisdom
and patience of a true master of the discipline. With the volumes
of words written on the subject, none so clearly impart his insights
from the soul or with such delight in the work, play, love and
philosophy of the world of iron.”
—William H. Luttrell, Esq., B.A., J.D.
