SUMMARY
This guy spent 20 years in the joint, starting in 1969. There were no weights in gyms then, and he was in solitary for much of that time. Going into prison at a buck fifty and change, he accurately pointed out he may as well had a "victim" sign stamped on his forehead. No weights but plenty of guts, so what did he do?
He built himself into one of the STRONGEST, most well CONDITIONED and FLEXIBLE athletes in the world, with BODYWEIGHT exercises only and NO equipment. We're talking 6 "money" moves, including stuff like one arm chinups, pushups, handstand pushups FREESTANDING, etc.. This is old time strongman wisdom that was lost after the money, drugs and supps came into our sport. It did however, survive in prisons and with circus strongmen continuing the great heritage of Louis Cyr, etc. He writes in a no bullshit fashion and the program is VERY WELL thought out, meaning level 1 for each exercise (there are 10) could be performed by somebody who's never set foot in a gym.
WHERE TO GET IT
His book is available in both hardcopy and Ebook format. It's a mere $40 and worth ten times that, to quote Matter's kind words about Blueprint...

WHAT IT CAN DO FOR YOU
I'm stronger now than I was in my 20's, legit. I'm talking 1,000lb top range rack pulls/static holds, VERY close to my goal of benching 405lbs, etc.. This progress hasn't come without a price - tendon pain, I have the flexibility of a senior citizen and if I don't perform some form of cardio/GPP EVERY DAY, I feel gassed walking up a flight of stairs.
Just 3 weeks into this, my flexibility/conditioning has improved TREMENDOUSLY, and I feel 100% better. I can perform these workouts without leaving my house, and they're the PERFECT compliment to my big barbell work.
Finally, I'll be 42 in a few weeks. Totaling "elite" in powerlifting/making it to 300lbs wasn't in the cards for this ectomorph. Nor am I willing to juice up to overcome those obstacles. I almost checked out earlier this year and if you study these people big, strong folk who attempt to stay that way don't make it to a ripe, old age. The great Alexeev just passed away (RIP), and was just 69 years young...

You know what though?
I CAN see myself accomplishing the "master" level on these 6 money moves. Legit one arm pullups/pushups for reps, freestanding one arm pushups, single legged DEEP squats for reps (try that sometime, I lacked the flexibility to make it halfway down), etc.
I share this with you in the hopes you too, may benefit. As such it's one more Blueprint WEAPON OF MASS CONSTRUCTION...
