Episode # 63: Rusty Iron

November 19th, 2008
· Filed Under: Strength Building · Success · Underground Strength Show · Videos · Zach's Workouts · marketing · muscle building

Training doesn’t have to be perfect for it to work.

My methods are NOT perfect, they have flaws and holes, but guess what, so does every program.

Sometimes you just gotta kill it without the perfection!

 

200 reps of plyos, finished with 80 lb walking lunges? This is FAR from perfect but it freaking works: strength, speed, muscle gains and work capacity.

Soembody call the program design police because I DON’T GIVE A F**k!

Kill it!

–Coach Z–

PS: Kill it like the old school guys did it, which is what I unleash at http://RussianLionFitness.com

October 2nd, 2008
· Filed Under: Underground Strength Show · Videos · Zach's Workouts

I just pulled this craziness out of the hat, because contorary to popular belief, this stuff works, and a lot of training works, people just need to work harder with what they use.

Check out this kettlebell - bodybuilding workout, it kicked ass!

 

Bodybuilding can still be Underground!

Now go grab some heavy kettlebells and kill some Underground Bodybuilding yourself!

Kill it!

–Coach Z–

PS: HERE is where I have been snagging my kettlebells from and they kick ass, Underground approved!

PPS: Let me hear your thoughts on what “Bodybuilding” really is? Post your comments, kill it!

Underground Strength Show, Episode # 7

August 1st, 2008
· Filed Under: Underground Strength Show · Videos

My old bedroom and my old book shelf! You gotta see this! Am I wrong here? Did the Golden Era really rock today’s lifters? Today we have less comraderie, more complainers, more cry babies, more fancy methods and people still want more fancy methods. Here and there I get a complaint about me not showoing anything new.

Is new better? Maybe I can hang myself upside down, use a kettlebell, rubber band and a wooden spoon, that’s new! There ya go, it’s my next video!

I sure wish the camraderie would come back like it was during The Golden Era. Today it’s powerlifting VS olympic lifting, bodyweight VS. free weights, and on and on we go.

 

Post your comments and let me know your thoughts. Feel free to tell the complainers to shut up :)

I sure do wish the golden era would come back… Hell, I’m gonna bring it back!

Kill it!

–Coach Z–

P.S. - Tell your friends about The Underground Strength Show. Tell the world!

Behind the Scenes…

March 24th, 2008
· Filed Under: Articles · Zach's Workouts

gladiatorcrew2.JPGWhat the heck happens at The Underground Strength Gym?!?!?

 Many people are asking….

Well, for one, we train in groups. The energy levels are infinitely higher with these groups. The groups are created after a client is screened through a trial session and then placed in a group that best suits his / her needs.

Not everyone is accepted into our program because we can not allow a half dedicated individual to ruin the powerful chemistry of our groups.

You probably remember me talking about the “Champion’s Attitude”, well, today, one of the Football groups trained while our Gladiator Crew trained and man did they light that place up! The tires were getting flipped down the parking lot all the way to the edge of the street! I’m sure the oncoming traffic was getting scared!

Anvil Training

February 17th, 2008
· Filed Under: Articles · Zach's Workouts

anvil125-small.JPGAll you need is a barbell, a pull up bar and the desire to eat big and lift big. But, if you’re like me, you may have quite the infatuation with the “Golden Era” of bodybuilding and the olden days of strength training.

This is why I am always on the hunt for training tools that have history behind them.

My latest toy is a 125 lb Anvil, which was a popular strongman implement used for gripping.

George Jowett actually grasped a 168 lb Anvil by the horn, and then cleaned & pressed it…with ONE hand!

I will see what movements I can use with this Anvil starting tomorrow. I’m sure some of our athletes at The Underground Strength Gym are going to have their way with it as well. Or, will IT have it’s way with them?!

I get a rush of adrenaline every time I use my old York weights and perform exercises that were once called “feats of strength”.

Unfortunately, too many people are not strong enough to lift heavy objects because they fear the challenge, sweat and grit that goes into hard training and muscle building.

I am sure you can find something “odd” nearby to lift and get strong with. It’s a matter of doing it, don’t think, just DO.

In Strength,

Zach Even - Esh

P.S. - Stop messing around, stop making excuses and start doing. Join the Underground movement now.
