Before the Hybrid Videos I was Dinjin

This post is aimed at the Soloflex Forever website. I posted it after the webmaster of that site attempted to steal credit for my Soloflex Beast idea. The post below this one reveals in the webmasters own words that the idea was not his.

Before I published my first Hybrid video I was a business owner, family man, commercial diver, and sometimes even a  fashion model.  Yes, I have done television and runway modeling.  If I never model again, big deal.  Been there. Done that. Got the video footage.

At 46, I am semi-retired.

I was Dinjin before the Hybrid videos. I will be Dinjin long after the YouTube videos are forgotten.

I am sharing this information so that my antagonistic blog readers and YouTube viewers will know that I am independent of any benefit they think I gain by uploading my workout videos.

Comments and ratings on my videos are suspended until I have recorded and published my next Hybrid video. The video will contain as many as 17 new exercises that can be done on the classic Soloflex muscle machine, plus two new methods of resistance. Best of all, it will contain a much needed bashing for the lame attempt to steal credit for my Beast Super Hybrid idea.

For those who have claimed in their forums that I am egotistical and  verbally acidic, I agree. These qualities of mine are part of why you log into my blogs and view my YouTube videos for new workout ideas, and not the other way around.

My suggestion is that you go back to your forums and write about how, negative, pretentious and offensive I am. By doing so you can FINALLY bring some much needed excitement to your otherwise mind-numbingly boring forum topics.

Imitation Is The Highest Form Of Flattery

I am thrilled by the fact that my Super Hybrid idea caught on and that others are finding it useful.  Although, I am frustrated as the result of a  few things.   Like this post from the Soloflex.com blog made just hours after the release of my Soloflex Beast Super Hybrid video:

"I wanted to make something like this a few months ago but while I had the idea, I didn’t have the room, or the know how. This fellow had a bunch of ideas that I hadn’t thought of.

He beat me to the creation of it. He would make a great Soloflex model. Great for him!

I’m jealous, I admit it."

After watching and downloading my Soloflex Beast Super Hybrid video, Garret welded his own Hybrid into existance.  Garret's duel Soloflex mainframe hybrid is featured below: 

The following was published on Garret's Soloflexforever forum.  Here is the web address to the actual post:

"My highly modified dual Soloflex Power rack system"

"Pictures coming soon. Two machines welded into one. Does every thing a regular Soloflex machine does, plus circuit training, plus full free barbell open power rack capability and more. Nothing else out there that I have seen can do as much in such limited space. All with legendary Soloflex quality and durability.

"I designed this on paper over a year ago. I wish that I had built it right away. So far it works flawlessly. ALL I need to acquire is an extra Barbell ram and I can hang my hammock on it again. Two of the barbell arms were tuned into safety catches. I just did some squats with 400 pounds on the barbell and it handled it better than expected."
      
The  "I DESIGNED THIS ON PAPER OVER A YEAR AGO" comment is in direct contradiction to his post just THREE MONTHS EARLIER on the Soloflex.com site where he said,  "I WANTED TO MAKE SOMETHING LIKE THIS A FEW MONTHS AGO BUT WHILE I HAD THE IDEA, I DIDN'T HAVE THE ROOM, OR THE KNOW HOW."


I'm glad I was able to show you how, Garret.     Enjoy my idea.


Here is a picture of me test driving the Beast.  This photo was taken just after the machine was built, and before I presented my duel mainframe idea to the world.
