In the rich imagination of Sam Delucia, bodybuilders were warriors, barbells were swords, gyms were dungeons, and the bodybuilding industry was a corrupt kingdom that had to be brought to it's knees. The website (now archived at http://web.archive.org/web/20021003044735/www.godsofiron.com/index.html ) drew a small army to the philosophy of Go Heavy or Go Home. DeLucia even distilled the soul of the site into a book entitled "ALPHA MALE." Then one day, the website vanished. In many ways and places, The Brotherhood lives on. My own membership confirmation was on 11/11/1999.Music by HAGGARD and AMON AMARTH. Photos were pulled from Yahoo Image Search. Paintings were done by the brilliant BROM. The text for the Creed and the Ten were taken almost in verbatim from the original website for The Brotherhood.Video cobbled together by Corax83.

Nov 18, 2008 - I owe alot to Sam Delucia and the Hardcore Brotherhood. They opened up my eyes to the fallacy of professional bodybuilding, and deterred me from spending all my hard earned money sham supplements. Many teenagers and young adults fall into that pit, as did i...Hail to the truth.Hail to the Brotherhood.

Corax83 Says:

Nov 18, 2008 - Good question. Maybe he just got tired of maintaining it. The archived version I posted a link to works pretty decent.

Nov 18, 2008 - Yeap. Thats exactly what happened. I remember the day it went down. Sad. You can still find the topic in the Yahoo Group if you want to look for it.
