*Correction: footage is earliest of George Hackenschmidt, Gotch’s biggest rival in the worked matches. George was a huge star himself.

Who is this for exactly? Half the names in this are from the 80s and before.

Im suprised Karl Gotch, George Hackenschmidt weren't named. 🤣

Thousands of fans bought into the hype of the "Russian Lion" George Hackenschmidt and Frank Gotch.

Match 1.

I'd imagine the grifters doing podcasts about how wrestling has sucked since Gotch and Hackenschmidt killed the business, are probably having daily aneurisms over the existence of Abadon, let alone the viral moments.

Maybe.
I'd say that I have at least 5 or 6 notebooks worth of "Classic NWA" so...
I guess it depends on exactly how many edits you plan on having. How far back you're going. If you're going all the way back to Hackenschmidt, Rikidozan and El Santo, better get 20.
Cheers!

Haha, a coin flip is a solid way to pick! What made Hackenschmidt stand out once you started digging into his story?

That sounds like a really cool niche. I’d definitely be curious to see how you translate those old methods for modern lifters.
also What made you choose Hackenschmidt as the first subject?

In other news, I have a spare November 1915 Physical Culture Magazine that I'd love to trade for a July 1915 hard copy.

That sounds like a fascinating book! What made you choose Hackenschmidt and his lifts as the focus?

I keep forgetting I have this app. I want to use it a lot more. Especially since I'm working on a new book.

Obviously looking for followers/mutuals/whatever.

Currently writing a book on George Hackenschmidt and his lifts. Hoping to polish on 8 Sept. #author #kentucky #sports #referee

Wurde nach Tipps gefragt: Egal ob Gymanfänger oder wenig Zeit – du brauchst keine 12 Übungen. 5 Basics an Maschinen reichen:
Brustpresse
Latzug
Beinpresse (oder Hackenschmidt, Belted Squat)
Seitheben
Rudern
2 harte Sätze (8–12 Wdh), 2-3 Min Pause.
~35 Min. 100% Effizienz. 🏋️‍♂️
