From http://www.oldtimestrongman.com - There have been few men who have had as much impact on strongman history as Arthur Saxon...
He was known as "The Iron Master" because he could bent-press more weight than any man in history. You can get more information on Arthur Saxon in his two great training books: The Development of Physical Power and the Textbook of Weight Lifting.
Released in the earlier part of the twentieth century, these books are widely considered "classics" of strength training. The information they hold is timeless - ringing true today as it did some ninety-odd years ago.
