DB Shrug Combo

In 2000 (and on a few other occasions) I published and claimed copyright on this exercise description (bolding added now):

DB Shrug Combo :

1) Standing, DB’s behind the body (actually behind the glutes), palms facing backwards, shrug shoulders, then

2) Standing, DB’s beside the body, palms facing thighs, shrug shoulders

3) Standing, DB’s in front of the body, palms facing body, shrug shoulders

I was conducting research and I came upon the following exercise in a publication copyright claimed by another 'author' at a subsequent date (bolding added):

DB Shrug Combo :

1) Standing, DB’s behind the body (actually behind the glutes), palms facing backwards, shrug shoulders, then

2) Standing, DB’s beside the body, palms facing thighs, shrug shoulders

3) Standing, DB’s in front of the body, palms facing body, shrug shoulders

And I said to myself: “That looks familiar!” So I cross-referenced it and I said to myself: “Wow! No wonder that looked familiar!”

I noted that the use of this description was in the absence of credits or references to the origin or permission to use from the original author (myself), and that the 'author' claimed copyright....
