I've gotten to know him, Dr. Ken, Jim Duggan, Jamie LaBelle and other members of the Iron Island gang pretty well from my visits to Drew's place, and Drew's several previous visits here. Eric and I have trained together at Drew's a few times, and then gone out to Peter Luger's Steak House after the workout. This is not a regular habit for any of us, just a tradition when we all get together. Eric has also trained with Drew for several years. Eric wanted me to put him through a workout on my turf, to add to his collection.
Some people collect stamps, others collect coins.
Eric collects workouts. I knew that Eric was used to being hammered by Dr. Ken, so I didn't want to let him down. I was pulling no punches and planned on giving Eric a workout to remember. But as with everyone I train, good form always comes ahead of poundage. And though I would be pushing Eric very hard indeed, I would still insist on the use of flawless form in order to minimize the chance of injury.
