The Nautilus Biography, Vol.1
About this book
Arthur Allen Jones (November 22, 1926 – August 28, 2007) was the founder of Nautilus Inc. and MedX Inc., and the inventor of the Nautilus Exercise Machines, including the Nautilus pullover, which was first sold in 1970. Jones was a pioneer in the field of physical exercise i.e. weight and strength training. Jones's ideas tried to move the public's notion of bodybuilding and strength-training exercise away from the Arnold Schwarzenegger school of training, which involved hours in the gym using free weights, to high intensity training This involves short, single sets with maximum intensity, to maximize muscular growth. Famous individuals who trained under Jones include Casey Viator - Mr America; Eddie Robinson - Mr America (who worked with and participated in and trained under Jones's Nautilus leverage line, which is now Hammer Strength). Others who were influenced by Arthur’s ideas include Mike Mentzer - Mr Universe; Sergio Oliva - Mr Olympia; and Dorian Yates - Mr Olympia 6 times.Each RADLEY CLASSIC is a meticulously restored, luxurious and faithful reproduction of a classic book; produced with elegant text layout, clarity of presentation, and stylistic features that make reading a true pleasure.
