Take a look where it all started…

Stay tuned for the next episode! They are getting crazier!

Kill it!

–Coach Z–

P.S. - I’ll be at The Ryan Lee Boot Camp this September, and, I’m gonna snag a small conference room for members of The Underground to do an open Q & A on training and business, and Kyle Battis, my web manager, will be answering biz questions as well, which you don’t wanna miss. He’s got some killer ideas!

P.P.S. - Those who are signed up for a USC certification or have already attended one, I’ll be holding a private meeting on business, training and any other questions as well in my hotel room. It’s gonna be bad ass and I am psyched BIG time to KILL it!

Holy cow, there has been an insane response to creating the most intense 15 minute workouts.

I am really up S**t’s creek trying to pick the best one, it is near imposisble, I have really painted myself in a corner this time, ha ha!

I am really digging Dave Morgan’s beastly workout, and at the young age of 60, this man is a frightening beast. Dave is post number 9.

Then we have number 46, Steve McElroy, tearing it up in his basement and making anyone struggle through this simple yet brutal circuit!

Workout 47, by Parker, reminds me of something I read in a 1940’s Strength & Health Magazine, LOVE IT!

And workout 58, Kirsten Gobel, what a crazy girl she is, pushing a prowler with a sled attached to her waist and 100′ rope pulls.

I am gonna have to pick the numero uno from the list above, but, does that mean the other 71 workouts go without a prize?

I think not

I have an idea for all of you, but, my tech skills are not all that geeky supreme, so, I will figure it out and make it happen for you guys.

Thank you BIG time for all the wonderful responses.

If you’re short on ideas, get back to the blog and test drive one of those beastly workouts.

Gotta run for now, I have a BIG power lunch with someone in 2 hours.

Kill it,

–Coach Z–

P.S. - Don’t forget, November 1st and 2nd the 3rd Underground Strength Coach Certification is on. If you want in, read the web site first at http://combatgrappler.com/coach.html - then, e mail me for an interview.

Many years ago i found my way to Steve Maxwell’s web site. It was quite interesting, to see this renegade physical culturist creating his own style of training, following no rules, using what he had learned through decades of the martial arts and mastering his own body for training.

There were photos of him training with a pair of homemade kettlebells, they were silver and looked deadly! He was performing a bridge while pressing these two kettlebells.

I finally met Steve two years ago at the Ryan Lee Boot Camp and we chatted about grip training and grip strength, rope climbing and using kettlebells.

I was blown away to say the least.

Just yesterday, I shared the stage with Steve, as we co presented the Gladiator Seminar, which went from 10 AM - 6 PM with just a few short breaks for snacking and fluids. Want an amazing day it was and what an honor to learn from such an expert.

I was excited that I was able to teach Steve some new stuff! Who woulda known!

Lucky for you, we recorded every second, and that means this will be available for you to watch at home soon enough. I believe it came out to 7 or 8 tapes! That’s a boat load of info, and all the info was Steve and I cutting through the hype, showing ONLY what works, only what we use, no filler and no fluff.

After training with Steve, I am psyched even more so to hit the bodyweight training. I’ll be tearing up my backyard tonight with my power wheel and kettlebells.

Stay tuned for more stories from the Underground!

Kill it!

If you’re not a member of The Underground Strength Gym, feel free to take a peek at some of the pics HERE to get a behind the scenes look at what our athletes do on a regular basis.

 The Underground Strength Gym is certainly a unique and rare place, if you’re an athlete in the NJ / NY area, this might be the place for you.

Or, you can take advantage of our Underground Seminars, the Underground Strength Coach Apprentice Program or the Underground Strength Coach Certification.

But, this is a special invite, for members of the Gym Only

In Strength,

–Z–

P.S. - I’m making calls for applicants for the Underground Strength Coach Apprentice Program. Rest up during the holiday weekend, I’m calling next week

P.P.S. - Not a member of my gym but you wanna learn about what we do and how it delivers ass kicking results? Then ditch the coffee and check this out.

Physical culture goes back many, many decades, well over a century. These were times of true strength and athleticism.

Times when men were strong, mobile and agile and… drug free.

Training was a variety of bodybuilding movements and methods, powerlifting movements, strongman drills, gymnastics drills and more.

The physiques developed were nothing shy of incredible, and, ironically, this was the simplest form of training ever. No complications or fancy ying yang methods, yet the results from way back when, are what the strength fanatics of today only wish they could achieve.

The influx of never ending training has confused many, resulting in slow and agonizing progress.

Some of us influenced by Physical Culture tend to lean one way more so than the other. And, this may very well be the case between myself and Steve Maxwell, who I’ll be co hosting the Gladiator Seminar with Steve Maxwell, Saturday, July 12th.

Steve utilizes bodyweight drills, gymnastics movements, kettlebells, indian clubs and the like.

I tend to gravitate towards the methods of the strongman from this iron age: stones, sandbags, barbells, dumbbells and gymnastics based drills.

The end result, regardless of which direction you choose, is phenomenal.

If you are a Coach, this seminar is for you.

If you are not a Coach, and you want to experience a day to blow the lid off your current rate of success and progress, this seminar is for you.

We have a few spots left, and registration is closing in a few days.

Take action now or miss out forever. This seminar will likely never happen again.

In Strength,

The Gladiator Seminar…shutting the doors in 72 hrs. Take action HERE.

Here’s the tail end of some of the crew tearing it up at The Underground Strength Gymnasium, in good ol’ Edison, NJ.

Here’s the workout these beasts endured…

After our Underground warm up, a powerful blend of mobility, calisthenics, bands, movement prep and stability work, they attacked the following:

1A) zercher squats 5 x 4 - 6 reps
1B) mixed push ups for active recovery 5 x 15 reps

2A) 1 arm dumbbell clean & press 3 x 6
2B) weighted pull ups w/mixed grips 3 x max reps

3) jump rope x 5 minutes

ya gotta move, and this is why if you ever saw our warm up, it could kick the crap out of the majority of people who walk through our doors.

We build our athletes up to this training and push hard for strength endurance, power endurance and overall work capacity and mental toughness.

The jump rope at the end is awesome! Jumping rope develops foot speed, leg power, ankle stability and improves wind, BIG time!

Listen to the music blasting, the guys having a blast while training, the atmosphere and another great day in “the office.”

Kick ass and stay strong, more is coming

Check it out, in the thick of things at The Underground Strength Coach Certification, held at The Underground Strength Gym in Edison, NJ.

What a crew this first group was! The next one sold out asap….not sure when the next one will be, for now, the next way to get in on my ass kicking methods is through the apprentice program.

Damn, that was a FUN, FUN, FUN weekend!

I must say, doing what I love, spending my time with others who are doing what they love, ya can’t go wrong

I also do a 1 month follow up with all our Underground Strength Coaches and we have been sharing success stories and this crew is killin’ it! Starting boot camps, opening up gyms, traveling to foreign countries to coach sport teams….bottom line, they are taking massive action with speed and following their dreams!

My two take away points for you:

1) Don’t climb the ladder of success, JUMP to the top…with SPEED!

2) Screw the “I’ll do it tomorrow” saying, do it and do it NOW!

One more….

Go BIG or Go Home!

Dedicated to your success,
