Bending Steel in the style of Alexander Zass for Feats of Strength Friday

If you haven’t heard by now, in addition to having a personal training studio in Boonton NJ I also double as a modern day performing strongman who performs feats of strength like bending steel as part of what would normally be a live show.

I started a youtube series called feats of strength Friday where each Friday I perform a different feat of strength until life returns to normal. This one is a tribute to a legendary strongman of the past named Alexander Zass who many consider to be the father of Isometrics.

I often reference him here as an example of the sorts of things I do (like I did in my last article). I hope you enjoy it!

Stay strong Boonton and surrounding areas!
