Tribute ;

I am deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Doug Brignole. In the past year Doug was kind of enough to spend hours on the phone with me and countless messages back in forth to help me better understand the biomechanics of the human body. More so then his overwhelming amounts of knowledge I will miss his kindness and generosity. Into his 60’s he was still evolving his views on training and helping bring up the next generation. We should all strive to be like Doug. There is only a handful of people who have fundamentally helped and challenged me on my own personal views in the Iron Game. He will always have a place in my heart and his works will live on through me and STG along with countless others. Doug you will be missed.

Another Tribute

This afternoon I found out that one of my very good friends and former mr universe Doug Brignole had passed away. I cannot fathom how it may have happened as he was really passionate about his health; in fact he was preparing to do an exhibition in a few weeks. (Was he fully vaccinated? I wonder….) Always in good spirits with an optimistic personality, embarking on his Brig-20; a series of exercises that he personally designed based on his book “The physics of resistance exercise”. I also had the pleasure and honor of having him as a guest on my cooking show. Ofcourse we met through a mutual friend, Ric Drasin, who also has since passed on. God bless you my good friend you are wonderful and I hope your legacy will live on. My condolences to the family….
