Every Friday our ‘Gladiator Crew’ shows up to battle it out with some intense training.
A powerful mixture of powerlifting, strongman, old school bodybuilding and calisthenics are incorporated. They never know what might come next. Will it be a powerlifting focused workout, possibly tons of old school bodybuilding, or maybe an entire day of body mastery where we use nothnig but their own bodyweight?

There’s no doubt about it, I’m a crazy man, a mad man if you will. There is also a method to my madness.
Sometimes, crazy is good, other times, you must know how to tame your wild side.
I’ve been molding my craziness through years and years of experience on myself and while training others, not while pushing keyboard buttons and claiming to be a tough guy.
I have my flaws, but I’m always working on improving those flaws.
I’m relentless on attacking flaws and weak points and you should be doing the same.
For most people, it’s everything they CAN’T see when looking in the mirror. That’s right, your entire back side is likely way weaker than it should be, and you need to jack up these muscles.

I’m an anti purist when it comes to strength and performance training.
I do not use only one tool or only one method. I am a purist when it comes to training for results though.
I use what works for me and what works for my clients.
I use the olymic lifts, power lifts, old school bodybuilding, gymnastics movements and much, much more.
Today’s workout was a brutal battle of will and physical toughness. You can’t get through my workouts without being mentally tough. I believe training, at least for myself, must improve my physical and emotional well being.
I need to train hard and tough for my own good – or I am simply not satisfied.
I post all my workouts at The Underground Strength Coach Forum, this way you can take ideas from my methods and apply them for yourself or if you train others, maybe you can use them on clients.
This weekend you’ll see some of my videos as well…where I am talking to the camera, getting insanely hyped up and then training, something you must watch to believe 
Yes, I’m crazy You will soon see this.
My workout today consisted of a powerlifting movement, an olympic lifting movement, an old school bodybuilding movement (one I NEVER see in traditional gyms anymore) and then I hit calisthneics and sandbags in a circuit.
The pace was fast and furious as always, this is the way I gotta train when short on time.
Speaking of short on time, it’s time for me to get some sleep!
Until the next time,

It’s the famous saying, “What’s old is new again.”
I never invented the training with odd objects, or anything else I have done or am using.
There have certainly been new ways in program design and physiological feedback thanks to state of the art equipment, but the boat most people have missed is consistency, effort and regularity of the basics and progressive overload.
The design of the program is key, because when it organized optimally (notice I never said perfectly as there is no such “perfect” program) your results come incredibly fast!
When I see what is popular today, I have often read about in books that are sometimes 100 years old! Or, I have spoken to Strength Coaches who trained themselves in this fashion since the 60′s!
How can this “old” stuff be so powerful and is it more powerful than today’s “new stuff”?
This is why “getting under the bar” is so critical. It is the people who have years and years of experience of getting under the bar who have the best knowledge of training, Not the pencil neck keyboard gurus floating around the internet these days.
Stone lifting has been around for centuries and is a cultural norm in some areas! How amazing is that! I sure wish things were like that around here. I’d be a happy guy if the local sports bars had Dinnie stones and atlas stones out front!
In Arnold Schwarzenneger’s OLD Book, ‘Education of a Bodybuilder’ you see Arnold competing in Ice Lifting or Stone lifting in the local pubs! Great stuff right there!
Some cultures respect and revere strength while others are always struggling to find a way to become fit and strong….such as many Americans.
This is why I LOVE old strength books, stuff from the early 1900′s through the late 50′s seems to really dish out the most powerful stuff. They are filled to the brim with powerful strength secrets, and through these nuggets of gold I have learned so much, and thus it has been transferred to my membership site, http://UndergroundStrengthCoach.com, where we exchange and learn new information with a blend of new methods in program design and old school methods of strength training. We just can’t go wrong!
It is HERE where you will find my best strength secrets that countless others have neglected to find, research, use and experiment with. Yes, I am constantly getting under the bar, or anything else I can get my hands on!
This is what allows you to avoid all the mistakes others make and you can get straight to the heart of the matter, discovering the power of stone training, outdoor training, powerlifting, old school bodybuilding, developing powerful hands and a mighty grip, strongman training methods, sandbags and much, much more!
This Friday I’ll be posting some killer info on how we develop amazing strength allowing our athletes to dominate the competition.
Use this 7 Day Trial and you won’t be disappointed. If you don’t like it, cancel before your 7 days is up!
