Resumen del Editor

Just when you think you've heard all there is to hear about lifting weights and building muscle, along comes another 80,000 words echoing in the corners and hallways of the muscle-head gym: schemes, routines, hints, and tips with the intent to inform, encourage, and entertain.

The immediate message: See iron, lift iron. The ultimate message: Train hard, eat right, and be happy.

Don't you just love simple? It's one of the main reasons I chose the sport. No pitcher, no quarterback, no foul ball, and no meddlesome referee. Just you and the iron and the rhythmic sounds of action, the grunts and groans and clanks and thuds.

You are your partner, your team, your biggest competitor, and your best fan; muscle and might are your favorite goals, with a good pump and burn to accompany you along the way.

And none of it happens without moving a ton of weights, forging countless sets and reps, enduring a pile of aches, and maybe some pain - and amassing a stack of stories to tell.

And speaking of stacks of stories to tell, pull up a bench and I'll tell you a few.

GREAT STORY

Where does Iron in My Hands rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Dave Draper once again delivers an in-depth masterpiece about his life in the iron game in this professionally narrated story. A true gem from the Blond Bomber.

Another great essay from the bomber himself

Your workouts will have much more depth as this goes farther than just the workouts you can see what truly makes the great bodybuilders and Dave Draper is among them.

Sort of had no direction

Always been a huge Dave Draper fan. Was sort of disappointed that the book didn’t have details about how interesting his life was. More of a motivational book than anything

Book won't tell you much about DD.

Chapter 56

"Never know who's reading my pointless nonsense. They're extraordinarily satisfying, too. Swell time-killers and give one the cool appearance that he knows what he's doing."

This explains most of my listening experience with the blond boomer. I might listen to Chapter 65 again for the inspiration and Chapter 72 for the emotions.

I didn't expect most of this to be Dave Draper's musings. I thought it's going to be a collection of anecdotes, but it's all essays. Entertaining, but give me something biographical instead. I also want stories about the golden era of bodybuilding.

I enjoyed listening to Steven Oswalt's handsome and calming voice.
