This is a story of the man behind Soloflex. He is a visionary on many levels. This book exposes his creative and crazy sides. Jerry Wilson is not the average guy. I suppose most creators and inventors are on the edge but this takes the cake. This book is not for everyone, just those who appreciate the wild side. Wish he would continue to write his stories as they are almost too much to believe. Working for Soloflex has been an amazing opportunity and as much fun as anyone could every have. I am lucky to know the family and to be a part of such a great product. This book, as I mentioned earlier, is more about Jerry than the company but at some point they have become one and the same. Thank you Jerry. The Soloflex team.

I also wish Jerry would continue to write.

This book is in my Wish List, and I’ll get it soon. I have been a fan and admirer of Jerry for many years, but haven’t known that much about him until very recently… through your website. I have read reviews of this book on other websites and already know that it is mainly about Jerry and not the wonderful machine he invented. That’s cool. I rather enjoy reading about my heroes. I am hoping that he will someday write a book that goes into more detail about the invention, development, and design of the Soloflex Muscle Machine, and all the other machines you have produced over the years, like The Rockit and others. I have seen the video interviews where he talks about the drawings on cocktail napkins and the early prototype machines. I would LOVE to actually see some of the old photographs. I know that I am not alone here. An autobiography of Jerry is cool, and I hope it sells well. A biography of the Soloflex Muscle Machine would be extremely cool, and highly prized among the Soloflex faithful. I’d buy a copy on the first publishing day. I know a book like it would sell many copies. Please consider it, Jerry.
