EASY WAY DOORWAY GYM
The DOORWAY GYM BAR is a sturdy adjustable chrome plated steel bar that can be put up quickly in any doorway measuring from 22 to 36 inches across. Can be installed at any height desired. A few turns of the outer steel tube with the hands forces the rubber-faced ends securely against the door-frame and provides sufficient holding power to safely hold a 250 pound person exercising on the bar. Pressure, not suction, holds the bar in place. No nails, screws, or other fasteners are used in installing this doorway bar. It can be readily removed. The DOORWAY GYM BAR is ideal for chinning and stretching exercises.

MUSCLEHEAD!
(Continued from page 58)
is against weight training. That is not at all true. We think enough of it to have trained for thirteen years, to lift more than four times overhead what we could when we started, and from a subnormal beginning gain eighty pounds into what we like to think is a normal human being. In the meantime we have gone to college, acquired a couple of degrees, and are working hard to support a wife and two children. We believe that every family in this nation should own a barbell set and it should be used by both sexes alike. But we do believe, as did the ancient Greeks in one of the most fruitful and glorious periods in all history, that there should be moderation in all things.
By all means use that barbell and any other equipment to which you have access and train hard, but keep your goal in mind and in its proper perspective. Try to make something of your life and don't be a "sponge" on others. Improve your mind and personality. Money is not everything, either, and not to be pursued at all costs without regard for the better things in life. Nor should you forget to enrich your spirit and live by the golden rule.
There are thousands who are a credit to our game and who have done much. to increase weight training from a position of suspicion and fear of harm to its present status of being recognized as the valuable form of physical training that it is. However, we have a long road to travel yet and it is up to each of you to decide which path we should take. There is a promising future for weight training to improve athletes in other lines of sport, in hospitals and clinics as corrective therapy, to condition the average man and woman, as well as to build our supermen and weight lifting champions. We have nothing against the champions. Most of them are well rounded personalities. and a credit to our game. It is the misguided "boobybuilder" we are trying to "get through to." A good many of them won't bother to read this article since it doesn't contain any so-called "new" exercises that they haven't yet tried. However, it may help you to avoid becoming
one.
It is unfortunate in many respects that many weight trainees at the present associate themselves either with the bodybuilders or the weight lifters. There was a time when almost everyone who trained with weights was both; but due largely to the extremist practices advocated by some now, many weight trainees feel that they should case their lot with one side or the other. We feel that all bodybuilders would look better and certainly be more useful if they also practiced some weight lifting exercises and conversely the weight lifters would lift better and be much more admired if they included some bodybuilding exercises in their routine. Certainly it did not harm the incomparable John Grimek! Among the newer crop of present day supermen, men like Steve Klisanin, Gene Bohaty, and Ronald Lacy are much to be admired as being proficient at both and are the type of well rounded personality for which we should strive.
The "boobybuilder's" sole purpose in life seems to be the acquisition of lumps and bumps, but what he subconsciously (Continued on page 63)

STRENGTH AND HEALTH
YOU CAN REDUCE WITHOUT EXERCISE
YOU CAN REDUCE your bodyweight without exercise, simply by consuming less calories than your body needs to maintain itself, less than 15 calories per day per pound of bodyweight. But your problem of weight control and reducing is much simpler when you burn up some of the calories through physical activity of one sort and another.
A man or woman weighing 160 pounds, living a sedentary life, requires 2,400 calories daily. For light work, 35 calories per hour would be consumed so that 2,700 calories per day would be required; 75 calories per hour for moderate work or 3,000 calories per day; 150 calories per hour for hard work or 3,600 calories per day, 300 calories per hour for very hard work or 4,500 calories per day.
Washing dishes uses up to 160 calories per hour, sweeping, 224 calories, walking 3 miles per hour, 320 calories; fairly vigorous dancing, 500 calories per hour; slow running (jogging) for an hour, 1,120 calories; swimming for an hour, 1,200 calories, (but this means steady swimming, not just bathing or standing around). Climbing stairs is very hard work and requires 2,200 calories hourly (if you could keep it up). Light exercise with moderate dumbells, but training steadily, 750 calories per hour. Heavy weight training may use up to 2,000 calories per hour, 4,000 calories in two hours, of steady training. That's why some of our big weight lifters who work and train hard have consumed 9,000 calories in a day and yet maintain a magnificent, muscular well conditioned physique which won the Mr. America and Mr. Universe titles, as Steve Stanko, John Grimek, Jim Park, Jules Bacon and Steve Klisanin, famous York strength athletes, did.
Yes, you can reduce without exercise, but eating is one of the pleasures of life, and you can eat more if you exercise. Wouldn't you rather pay for the privilege of eating, with a little exercise and as an additional bonus have a well-developed body, super health, energy and endurance which results from the practice of regular exercise?
If you would like to get rid of your ugly, burdensome, life-shortening fat, I can help you. We offer a completely new method of reducing and weight control, a different and superior method, a simple, comfortable, painless and healthful way to reduce bodyweight by banishing surplus fat.

IF YOU WANT AND Can Afford The Best!
Hoffman's Super Hi-Proteen, long known as Hi-Proteen Special, has been proving a sensation. All Hi-Proteen products are good, all are complete foods, all contain a high percentage of Class A, the best complete proteins, all the amino acids, natural minerals and vitamins, all are scientifically blended and serve their purpose well, but the super Hi-Proteen is a superior product. Super Hi-Proteen is a blend of special nutrients from the best protein sources, skillfully and scientifically processed so that it has higher coefficient of digestibility and assimilability. That's why Super Hi-Proteen Builds Better Bodies Faster. The products contained in Super Hi-Proteen, which rate from 90 to 99% of Class A protein, are so processed through the predigested enzymatic hydrolosates they contain, that the body assimilates up to 99% of their health, energy and body building qualities. That's why Super Hi-Proteen Builds Better Bodies Faster.
The palatability, low toxity and rapid physiological utilization of the material it contains makes Super Hi-Proteen a highly therapeutic product 'which is easily digested and assimilated, and also serves, as a catalyst in the digestion of other proteins. That's why Super Hi-Proteen Builds Better Bodies Faster. Super Hi-Proteen has been processed and compounded so that it is offered. in a palatable, concentrated form for those who through their underweight, undeveloped condition, their lack of strength, their lack of energy, their constant fatigue, have proven that they are unable to utilize fully the proteins in the usual diet.
Although Super Hi-Proteen contains no commercial sugar or artificial flavor it has a pleasant, bland taste. A very important rule of nutrition is that the body digests and assimilates fully only those foods which it likes. Most high protein foods, those with a high amino acid content, have an unpleasant odor and taste, and although they may be high in protein to begin, upsetting the user's digestive processes as they do, only a minute part of the value they contain can be utilized by the body. Super Hi-Proteen is the best tasting very high protein food. It is a concentrated source of proteins of high biological value. It supplies all needs for growth, for body building and maintenance, in such a form that even those whose poor physical condition has proven their lack of ability to utilize ordinary proteins can make full use of it and obtain maximum benefit from it. That's why Super Hi-Proteen Builds Better Bodies Faster. It contains mixed amino acids, with especially large amounts of the essential 10.
Super Hi-Proteen is made up entirely of the best natural proteins processed to a very advanced state so that only the best and most desirable qualities remain. That's why Super Hi-Proteen Builds Better Bodies Faster. Super HiProteen is designed to be used where more energy and a high degree of protein food quality is desired. It contains an entirely new milk source protein nutrient, in which substantially all the lactose has been converted into galactose and glucose, just one step removed from glycogen or blood sugar. That's why Super Hi-Proteen is so quickly and easily absorbed by the body. The super proteins in this product build better bodies. healthy tissue, rich blood, strength and muscle.
We repeat, if you want and can afford the best, Super Hi-Proteen is what you need. And it is not so expensive either. A pound of Hi-Proteen powder contains 50 teaspoonfuls, or an average month's supply. You will benefit from as little as one teaspoonful a day; if you use it faster, you will receive even more benefit. Approximately a thousand large size tablets, two pounds, is priced at $10.00. You should use both Hi-Proteen powder and tablets, so that you will have this best of all protein foods available for your use at all times.
