    Allan was one tough man, well repsected! And obviously strong as a bull!

    Steve Zetolofsky was a great man. I trained at his gym at Crystal Palace (21st Century Gym) in the early 90’s. Pete Tancred was my PE Teacher, too. These were great days with great characters!

      A lot of older guys I know who trained out of Crystal Palace in the 80s all mention Steve Zetolofky as a great lifter and also a good man. One of the early top notch powerlifters in the uk

    Hilarious how they lifted logs back then without any handles!! haha. They had handles at the WSM back in the US in 1980-1982. Why did they not craft logs in Britain in 1984 with handles? So awkward.
