Gallery II

     The pictures in the Iron Barbell Gallery of Ancient Iron depict various exercises that will eventually be detailed in the article section.  Please note that these pictures have been painstakingly restored from the originals found in public domain books, or they are originals.  Because of these please ask for permission to use them on a website or other medium.  The emphasis here is not so much on the famous lifters, but the lifts themselves.
