Steve Jeck’s From the Quarry: Success

by Randall J. Strossen, Ph.D. | ©2012 IronMind


Ironically, it’s how hard you train during times of no progress that might well determine your overall progress, not to mention your ultimate high water mark, and that’s the subject of Steve “Inver Stone” Jeck’s latest gem from his quarry.

We call him Steve “Inver Stone” Jeck for good reason, because it was Steve Jeck who doubtless sparked the contemporary interest in this signature manhood stone:  When Jeck visited Scotland, hoisted the Inver Stone and sent a letter to IronMind® about his adventure (MILO®, Vol. 1 - No. 4; January 1994), he changed the course of the modern day strength world.

Sound a little too Zen-like for the land of might and muscle?  Read the latest gem Steve Jeck has mined - he calls it Success, for very good reason.
