Overview

Forget what you know about modern fitness. This is not a book about balance, moderation, or science-backed workout splits. Train Like a Freak dives headfirst into the raw, unpolished, and unapologetically chaotic underground of 1990s bodybuilding-a time when chalk dust filled the air, VHS tapes were sacred scripture, and overtraining was a badge of honor, not a risk. This isn't nostalgia. It's a ruthless, detail-rich autopsy of an era that produced the biggest, hardest, and most mentally unhinged physiques the world has ever seen. Inside these pages, you'll find Dorian Yates' intensity-fueled collapse sets, Ronnie Coleman's gravel-throated madness, and a diet philosophy that began and ended with gallon jugs of milk and bulk boxes of peanut butter. Steroids weren't discussed-they were assumed. Recovery was for the weak. And training wasn't planned-it was weaponized. Authoritative, brutally honest, and darkly hilarious, Train Like a Freak lays bare the rituals, gyms, and psychological warfare that defined the freak era. You'll explore the rituals of shoulder days that lasted four hours, leg days that ended in vomiting, and a world where instinct ruled and programming was for cowards. This book isn't for the lifestyle crowd. It's for lifters who still believe that effort matters more than metrics, that pain is part of the plan, and that mass-true, freakish, armor-plated mass-is worth bleeding for. If you've ever trained angry, trained fasted, or trained just to feel something-this is your bible.
