WEIGHT TRAINING FOR
ATHLETES?
(Continued from page 40)
no magic that can make hereditarily slow muscles into fast ones, but such exercise will make all men (or women) faster than they were before the weight training. The weight training regimes should be carefully and appropriately selected, and should be accompanied by stretching exercises for improving and maintaining adequate flexibility. The writer predicts that the next ten years will see carefully planned and adapted weight training become what the Armed Forces during the late unpleasantness termed "S.O.P." -standard operating procedure. This will result in marked improvement in average athletic performances of almost all kinds, from football to tennis; from hurdling to golf; and from wrestling to high jumping. Coaches need to remember that if they would cause their athletes to develop more power, one of the great essentials is more strength that "F" in the power formula of FV.
(Editor's note: The Iron Game is fortunate in having such α distinguished educator as Dr. Charles H. McCloy as a "booster." Dr. McCloy, who was a member of Phi Beta Kappa in college, holds his Ph.D. from Columbia University and has studied at Harvard, Ohio State and Johns Hopkins Medical School. He is listed in American Men of Science, Who's Who in America and Who's Who in American Education.

Read What BOB HOFFMAN Says:
In addition to a well-balanced, high-protein diet, every body builder should add one YORK VITAMINMINERAL CAPSULE to each meal. In doing this, you immediately supply your body with 25 CONCENTRATED FOOD FACTORS to "spark your glands"
to help you digest your meals... to help you build sound muscle tissue. The YORK VITAMIN-MINER-
AL TABLETS are not a medicine not a "pep-up pill." For less than 10c a day, it is the best health insurance your money buy.

I recommend that if you're honestly interested in building, and maintaining, a strong healthy body, then make the YORK VITAMINMINERAL TABLETS a regular part of your daily diet.
