Though not a “pro” at the time . . . Casey never looked better in my
opinion then when he was training like this. Was it Jones or the routine?
Will leave that for others to debate, but he looked remarkable at 19 and
when he trained this way, full body, 3X per week, way better then when
he trained more.
The best training article that appeared on Casey during that period was
published in the Oct. 1971 edition of Iron Man and was written by
Achilles Kallos. The article listed Casey's measurements as Height 5'8",
Weight 217 pounds, Arms 19 3/8" (cold) Chest 50", Waist 31 1/2",
Thighs 28", and Calf 18"! The article also mentioned the fact that
Casey trained the whole body in one workout, three times per week,
and that each workout lasted between two and two-and-a- half hours.
The writer then listed the amazing workout as followed by Casey during
that period.

The most amazing thing about his leg routine was the fact that Casey did
each exercise nonstop, going from one exercise to another without rest.
