Love these articles about the Bronze Era of bodybuilding. Never heard of this guy though, even though he has the same name as I do 😂. What I love about those times is the fact that can be observed how the world has changed. Simple example was that if you wanted to see a guy like Pyotr you had to go to a circus, which to a current generation is absolutely crazy.
Also the training itself is dead simple, no optimisation, periodisation, loading, deloading etc which is nothing bad with those things. I think it was the sign of the age - simplicity and that is something that we very often lack nowadays
Thanks for the comment and observations! I was just talking with one of my jiu-jitsu training partners the other day about these guys, and showing him the books that I've been acquiring about their training methods and we pretty much came to the conclusion that they had it all figured out back then!
