Publisher's Synopsis
TEN EVENTS TO FIND THE TOP ATHLETE IN THE UNIVERSE (A PROPOSITION FOR A NEW WORLD COMPETITION) Ricardo Ruiz has been the owner of a gym, an athlete and a power-lifter for years as well as a writer. He knows deeply the special world in "the brotherhood of iron." From his deep personal experiences he has conjured up and formulated the ultimate athletic test, a new kind of Decathlon, The X Man. An athletic test so well rounded as to bring out all the aspects of excellence in the human body- speed, agility, endurance, strength and raw power. The X Man is written with the same direct clarity and depth of purpose yet simplicity Ricardo Ruiz has always been capable of; for he is not only an athlete of the body but even more so he is a master of the mind.
