Deceptive Strength: Becoming Strong while Staying Small
How I Went from Weak as a Kitten to Super Strong Deadlifting 505 lbs., Freestanding Standing Handstand Pushups, Juggling a 40 kg Kettlebells, Crazy Feats of Strength and More, All While Staying Lean and Relatively Small
When it comes to Strength there are 5 Factors More Important than Muscle Size
Just look at almost all of the oldtime strongmen. Sure there were a few giants like Cyr but the majority of them were not. With their clothes you wouldn’t necessarily assume you’re standing next to the strongest people on the planet with guys like Saxon, Maxick, Klein or Zass.
It was the Mighty Atom that originally inspired me. At about 140 lbs. he certainly wasn't the most imposing figure. But what he could do was almost unbelievable.
So their training methods became mine...along with the recent and most advanced information I could fine. The best of the ancient and the new all put together.
Inside you'll find 25 Deceptive Strength Key Concepts to help you become as strong as possible without necessarily adding more muscle to your frame.
You'll find 50 exercises, tips on becoming the World's Strongest, and much more.

Some interesting ideas for people who want to develop strength without size.
A fairly comprehensive overview including how fast to perform exercises, how much rest to take between exercises, total body vs isolation exercises, to take protein in the "window of opportunity" or not, and so on.
I am working out with "Henry Higgins Strength Course" from around 1900s (one of Bill Hinbern's superstrengthtraining projects) and was pleased to see the training protocols Logan talks about in Deceptive Strength are incorporated into the course.
