Lee Haney has been in bodybuilding 25 years and has been Mr. Olympia 8 times. When he learned that alcohol, nicotine, marijuana destroyed muscle tissue or reduced anabolic output he decided to stay away from them. It helped his spiritual side as well. Speaking of those in prison and of us, he said, "We have to continue to have a dream." Lee Haney showed a variety of bodybuilding and fitness exercises that could be done with a partner. Many involved the use of a towel. Your partner is also often working the same muscles in the other direction. You trade back and forth for a full workout. Lee Haney and a volunteer demonstrated one or more exercises for most of the larger muscle groups. At the close of the session there was talk of perhaps trying to get him to do a video of this material that could be shown to inmates without access to weight lifting equipment. Several photos below show the various movements demonstrated plus some general shots of the presentation.
