PS - Should I do something crazy like auction off a slot into the Underground Strength Coach Certification for 11/1 and 11/2?

Not sure why, but the camera turns me into a crazy mofo, crazier than expected! ha ha

The Underground Strength Gym, located in Edison, NJ, was a gym built off “nuts and berries”.

I literally started this place with less than $ 1,000 and little by little added equipment, most of which is used or home made.

Most people think that in order to start a kick ass Underground Gym would require financial assistance from a bank, a business partner / loan, all types of fancy equipment and 5,000 sq. ft.

The Underground Strength Gym is just under 1,500 sq. ft. I could have stayed in my garage and played it safe while others told me how tough running my own business would be. The BIG difference is that I had the balls to do something about my passion, while other cry, complain and make excuses about it.

I have invested thousands of dollars in Coaching and Education because I know that it is an INVESTMENT. Others call it spending.

Too many personal trainers who want to kick ass fear the “investment” because they feel it is spending.

I have hired guys like Jim Labadie, Alwyn Cosgrove, Ryan Lee and even others outside of the fitness industry, often paying $ 1,000 for an hour of their time.

I understand that my investment will translate into many, many multiples of my initial investment.

I don’t fear, I act. I make things happen, and if I need help, I am not so egotistical to ask for it and pay for it.

I pay for my education, as did my Coaches. I don’t expect FREE advice, handouts or anything else for FREE.

I have bene helped by many, and this is why I immediately e mailed Ryan Lee after he announced he would scholar someone for his upcoming Ryan Lee Boot Camp.

The cost to scholar someone is near $ 1,000, I said so what, I want to give back, to pay it forward, to help a certain someone who has the drive to take action and make things happen, no excuses, no crying or whining.

I think there are far too many complainers, whiners and cry babies out there - want everything for free, or discounted, or adjusted for their pleasure and benefit.

I don’t work with people like that, only with people who want to kick serious ass, plain and simple, and know that it will require work and an investment.

It’s time to look in the mirror, and ask yourself, what kind of person are you?

Kill it!

–Coach Z–

P.S. - The next Underground Strength Coach Certification is on Novemeber 1st and 2nd.

If you want in (I’ll be taking 12 people maximum), go HERE, read the entire letter, and if you are ready to Kill It, e mail me to schedule an interview.

I emphasize, SERIOUS, SERIOUS, SERIOUS inquiries only. No tire kickers, noone just to ask a few questions. This is the real deal. You either want in and are ready to Kill It, or you’re just “thinking about it.” I want people who are ready to kick ass like never before, so if you’re just “thinking about it” then forget it, you’re not the right fit for this elite program.

The last group who went through our Underground Strength Coach Cert. is already killing it!

- Dramatic increases in boot camp numbers
- Beginning boot camps in niche markets
- Opening Underground Strength Facilities
- Training athletic Teams

When I was 13 I started getting heavily into bodybuilding.

But what impacted me most was the info found in the original, Arnold Schwarzenneger Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding. In this HUGE book were tons and tons of black and white photos of the rugged bodybuilders from the 50’s - 70’s.

These guys were more like what I call a “power-bodybuilder”.

They hit heavy deadlifts, heavy olympic lifts, heavy powerlifts, heavy cheat curls, HEAVY EVERYTHING.

They developed incredibly rugged, rock hard physiques and man did they motivate me to do the same!

These photos made me feel like I was living during the Golden Era, training with the crew at Gold’s Venice and on Muscle Beach.

I would watch Pumping Iron over and over again, and on weekends I would have my Dad drive me to see other gyms in the area as I dreamt of owning my own gym one day.

I wanted a hardcore gym, a dungeon like faciluty where everyone busted their ass and sweated buckets to achieve their goals.

I wanted a gym where everyone understood their purpose, and that was to train your ass off, surround yourself with other highly motivated beasts and to WIN!

Well, whaddya know…. dreams become reality and I own my own hardcore facility. Just as I envisioned.

I believed, I had the guts to make it happen and I took massive action - these are 3 keys to success.

If you want something to happen badly enough, ask yourself if you have followed the 3 steps above.

If not, how about NOW would be a great time?

In Strength,

P.S. - Wanna see what kick started my gym and my business? It allowed me to open up a kick ass gym with barely any investment, while others are out spending tens of thousands and paying loans, I owe not one dime to anyone and continue to kick ass. I am showing the world how I do it, get started HERE.

P.P.S. - Stay tuned, I’ll be announcing the next USC Certification course, very likely to be in November!

If you’re in a slump, don’t worry, I’ll help you step it up and make your way out of it.

It’s mind power, and you and ONLY you can control your mind. The mind must be trained, just like your body, if you want it to be strong, powerful, mighty and fierce.

I can relate to you, trust me, I have heard many tell me I can’t do “it”, and what I’m doing won’t work, etc, etc.

Other “Big” names try to stop me, trash talk me and slow me down.

Sorry, there will be NONE of that.

I’m picking up momentum and the best thing I want to share it. I don’t want to keep it all to myself. There are no secrets. What I have learned was passed down to me by others, or, I learned through experience, in the trenches, kicking ass the only way I know how.

Stay tuned, I have some ass kicking stuff coming your way.

A new e course, more Underground Strength Coach Certifications, motivational videos from yours truly and much, much more! Hold on tight, we’re gonna Kill it…..TOGETHER!

–Coach Z–

So, you wake up every morning, same routine, same time, same breakfast, same…..

You know the routine, dontcha?

Well, let me make you feel a bit uncomfortable for a moment, and uncomfortable is good, it’s REALLY good.

Because when you get comfortable, you start letting life slip through your finger tips…

Not good.

I wake up every morning and fall asleep every night with a vision, a vision that gives me chills.

I want people to do what they love, I want people to make a living following their passion.

For some, strength training may have nothing to do with their passion, but, I have many people reading my Blog for the inspirational factor. That’s great, because as long as I can help push someone to that edge where they follow their passion, then I’m on the right path

I watched the movie, ‘We are Marshall’ last night. It’s not the first time, I have watched it before, but things have changed since that “first time.” I am on a new mission, a new path…I’m blazing a trail like a run away freight train.

What am I blazing a trail? I have this deep down gut feeling that people should be able to do what they love, and there is no reason to go through life doing things you don’t want to do or don’t love to do.

Now it’s time for some action, wouldn’t you agree?

Kill it!

–Coach Z–

P.S. - I’ll be announcing the next date for The upcoming Underground Strength Coach Certification. I’ll be accepting 12 people, but, I’ll roll if only 1 is accepted. Too many cry babies and whiners out there who want this and that for free or for less, without effort, or who cry when it’s not catered for their way. Sorry, this is NOT for everyone.

Here’s what you’ll experience at The USC Ceritification (Click HERE).

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,

Our Underground Strength Coach Cert. for September is now closed and filled up

The first ever cert. was un-freakin-real and it really blew the roof off the gym. It was better than I ever planned or expected. Yes, things went that great!

For those of you who have e mailed me for possible internship, I have more than likely found our next intern and I want to thank everyone for taking the time to send in applications.

If you’re looking to learn as much as possible form what I do and how I do it, then head on over to http://UndergroundStrengthCoach.com or sign up for The Gladiator Seminar taking place July 12 w/Steve Maxwell and myself at my gym in Edison, NJ.

Until the next time,

stay strong!

P.S. - No baby yet, just waiting for that moment when my wife tells me it’s time to go! I’ll keep you posted but if you see I am MIA for a few days, you know why!

Here we go, another one of my “deep” posts for you. I hope this will make you think and take action. You see, about 1 1/2 years ago I was having dinner at my friends home in Florida, Ryan Lee.

We were speaking about my readiness to open a gym so I can do what I love most, which is training athletes, especially young athletes, and getting them STRONG.

I love the internet, but, I need fresh air, I need to wrap my hands around iron and sweat like my athletes do.

He told me to do what I love, and I stated boldly, I LOVE to train hard core, serious athletes. His reply, “That’s what you were born to do. You were put on this earth to get people STRONG!”

Wow, what an awesome weekend this was.

The first ever, USC certification, and it rocked the house big time.

With military and fire personnel, budding Strength Coaches, Fitness Pros running boot camps and High School Strength Coaches in attendance, it was an amazing time.

The ins and outs of my gym and business, A - Z, were delivered. Nothing buts the nuts and bolts, no fancy, complicated stuff.

This was all about kicking ass with nuts and berries, no need for fancy equipment.

The feedback was great and you’ll see some pics and videos on the blog soon enough.

I’m a little hectic now as last night, around 3 AM, we headed to the hospital as my wife was having contractions for a good few hours and the Doc told her to come in asap.
