It has been during these fifteen years of taking countless hours of continuing education courses that he became focused on proper eating and strength training for the older, forgotten population.
He was an aspiring competitive bodybuilder and occasional power lifter in California during the late ’60s and early ’70s. Among his mentors were two greats in the “black iron game,” the legendary Jack LaLane and Jack Dellinger, Mr. Universe 1956. Robin’s desire to concentrate on his family and finish a degree in political science (California State University–Hayward, 1972) led to relegating the “iron game” to a hobby.
His professional baseball career as a pitcher was cut short due to a severe arm injury in 1973, so the Dobbins moved back to their home state, Texas, in 1974, where he began his graduate degree at Stephen F. Austin State University.
Being bombarded with questions about eating from countless people other than the ones he works with directly prompted his writing this book. “Seemingly Sound Eating yet Severe Bodily Damage” is the result of over a thousand hours of sorting through many of the twenty-thousand-plus mainstream complex eating schemes for immediate desired body composition results. His intuition (hunch) said eating was not meant to be difficult, and the goals should be a way to eat forever, not seek immediate but temporary results.
“The older population’s lives count also. They can build both muscle mass and bone density with weight training and responsible yet simple eating. Health is not exclusively for the young beautiful people. I aim to see to that.”ver menos
