Henry Rollins: Details Jan. 1993: "Iron and the Soul":
"Mr. P. could see that I was in bad shape, and one Friday in October he asked me if I had ever worked out with weights. I told him no. He told me that I was going to take some of the money that I had saved and- buy a hundred-pound set of weights at Sears.
As I left his office, I started to think of things I would say to him on Monday when he asked about the weights that I was not 'oing to buy. Still, it made me feel special. My father never really got that close to caring. On Saturday I bought the weights, but I couldn't even drag them to my mom's car. An attendant laughed at me as he put them on a dolly.

Bodytrends.com: There is No Best Way!:
"The title of this article represents my response to the vast majority of all training-related questions posed to me. Of course, athletes and coaches argue endlessly about the "best" way to train. In fact, people tend to divide themselves into opposing schools of thought on nearly every conceivable issue.
For example, one camp advocates slow contraction speeds while the other recommends ballistic, high velocity training. Some favor high repetitions while others espouse low reps. Other issues currently in contention are machines versus free weights, compound versus isolation movements, and single versus multiple sets.

The New Republic Online: How Political Correctness Is Corrupting Medicine: 19 januari
"The bandwagon that Satel would like to stop in its tracks is bumping along toward an ill-defined destination called "social justice," and carrying a variegated group of vociferous critics of "the health profession's failure to make the connection between oppression--by society at large or by the medical establishment itself--and illness."
