Redemption Time.

I just got my ass kicked during the brutal Jersey Shore Challenge.

Pauly Reddick of course verbally abuses me and I used my bread and butter to redeem myself: The Pull Up.

The Peg Board, well, that’s another story.

I tried this when I first got to their gym and it was rough. AFTER the workout, somehow, someway, I got it a bit.

A little practice and I can kick that peg board’s add!

Check it:

Can you count the number of times Paul Reddick calls me son?

Whatcha think of those pull ups and that peg board.

The last few videos you guys have slacked on the comments.

Step that shit up SON. I wanna see 20+ comments on every video.

Share and exchange ideas. Ask questions or just leave a comment.

Bring it SON.

Peace,

PPS: We still have space available for The Underground Strength Gym License. Yesterday, territory was secured in Oklahoma and Michigan! Will you be the NEXT bad ass to go Underground? Click HERE and make it happen.

This is round 1 of a 5 round circuit. Check the video below…..

That was not an easy workout headed by Uncle Mike Stehle and The Milkman (Both Beasts pictured below).

Uncle Mike Stehle of course had his favorite pasttime blaring loud to keep us amped up, Social D all the way baby!. These are just SOME of the perks of running your own biz, you don’t have to be subjected to the punishment of sappy love tunes and other fitness bunnies talking on their cell phones while you try to push through your set of heavy squats or kettlebell snatches.

Wait! Most “normal” gyms don’t even have Kettlebells, and if they do, you can bet they are using some SCARY technique!

Now, getting back to the workout that kicked my ass….

I rarely, if ever, train in such a manner, with all these circuits and timed rounds for metabolic conditioning.

But you know the old saying, right?

If you suck at it - that’s probably the workout you SHOULD be doing!

Uncle Mike and the Milkman usually hit 3 metabolic conditioning workouts each week and 2 strength and power endurance workouts each week.

Next time I head down there I’ll be redeeming myself and showing up for a strength and power focused day, ha ha ha ha!

Here’s the exact workout we did that day. Give it a shot and post your comments below to share how you did and how you felt. If you own a gym, unleash this bad boy on your clients and show them some Jersey LOVE!

For 5 rounds.

Perform each exercise for 30 seconds work / 15 seconds rest.

After you complete 1 round, rest 1 minute and repeat.

1) Battling Ropes

2) 2 Hand Kettlebell Swings

3) Prowler Push (High & Low)

4) 2 Hand Kettlebell Hi-Pull

5) Air Dyne Bike

6) Burpee Pull Ups

If you don’t have an air dyne bike you can hit the Battling Ropes for another round.

I gotta tell ya, Milk Man & Uncle Mike Stehle impressed me BIG time. These guys are in serious shape and strong as heck to boot! You may have noticed me straightening out Paul Reddick on the hi-pulls

So, you have 2 Options:

1) Perform the Jersey Shore Challenge as described and post your comments below….

OR

2) Tell us about a time YOU got your ass kicked from a workout. Make sure you post the details of the workout.

Preferably, I wanna see you rock out The Jersey Shore Challenge because your last ass kicking may have been YEARS ago. Sometimes we all need a GOOD ass kickin.

I am PSYCHED to read your comments and responses!

So get busy!

Peace!

PS: A few spots are left for The July 18-19 Underground Strength Gym License. Wanna run a gym like mine or like the Milkman and Uncle Mike? You can even run your little Underground Strength Gym part time, on the side of your full time gig, and STILL kick ass doing so! More Info HERE (Click ME NOW)!

Last week I took a journey 45 minutes south to the beautiful Jersey shore.

My buddy Mike Stehle runs a kick ass training center HERE.

The awesome thing about Mike’s place is not just the set up and the equipment, it’s the atmosphere he creates combined with the ability to train outdoors while breathing in the fresh, ocean air. His gym is literally a few blocks from the beach - it’s VERY powerful to train while breathing in this air and it feels great.

But this time around, it felt more like an ass kicking, a GREAT one at that though

This was an awesome time and a mix of training and business masterminding - both of which I love to do

Let the journey begin, please your comments below and let me know your thoughts, questions, comments. I’m psyched to hear frm you as always!

Lots of Kettlebells, Lots of bodyweight.

Stay tuned for the next part of our adventure!

Post your comments and questions below.

Peace!

WOW! Sean Barker interviewed me last week on how I train and get so much done in life and business as a busy man.

As a thank you gift, Sean hooked me up with something he KNOWS I love, and this is some seriously OLD stuff as you’re about to see below, check it out bruddahs & sistas….

So, whatcha think of that amazing gift?

Leave your comments below and let me know your thoughts. And, if you’re a Busy Dad, let me know how you train to still get jacked up and strong as hell on top of everything else going on in your life.

Peace Dudes,

PS: Someone e mailed me the other day after purchasing The Underground Strength Manual and wanted a refund, he said it was too hard & he asked if I had anything easier for him.

That may have been the shittiest question I have ever heard in my life! Train Hard. Period.

This is the beginning of an upper body workout with some crazy college athletes - the energy is high and the strength is pretty freaky as well.

Note how we hype them up with a few quick sets of plyometrics and medicine ball throws.

Check these bruddahs out…

Before these college athletes ever touched a barbell we needed them to achieve some “benchmarks”.

No need for them to bench if they weren’t demonstrating a foundation of strength to bench press.

Push ups, dips, kettlebell pressing, band training and even pushing movements with a sled.

Once a solid foundation is built, teaching athletes how to bench press is MUCH easier.

What bench marks do you have before someone can bench press?

Post your answers below in the comments section!

Peace Bruddahs!
