"I have two great articles of belief, the first being that the average young man can become very much stronger than he has any idea of; and the second, that if an aspirant follows the advice in the following pages he can attain great and permanent strength without any danger of overstrain, of stale- ness, or of loss of speed or energy. I might even say that great strength is possible for any young fellow unless he happens to be helplessly crippled. Even those who are lacking in size, in vigor, or who suffer from minor diseases, can first overcome their weaknesses by the medium of corrective, developing and invigorating exercises; and then, after their bodies have become properly shaped and muscled, can acquire that great strength which is the crowning glory of true manhood. I have seen so many weaklings become "Strong Men" that I have become convinced that the capability for possessing great strength is within all of us. And that any man, however weak, can become very strong if he has the ambition, the persistence and the knowledge. While I cannot give you the first two, I feel that I can help out on the information." - Earle E. Liederman This is a restored and re-formatted edition of Liederman's original 1927 booklet.
