Wanna be an Unbeatable Man…or Woman?
You MUST have the Eye of The Tiger.
In your mind, “Impossible is Nothing”
In the last video and Blog Post, I spoke about mind set and winning at everything you do.
I spoke about becoming Unbeatable.
Check out these 2 Videos and Read On….
I have noticed many people have much to say yet do NOT follow their words.
Action, every day, day in and day out must be aggressively taken.
Combine your aggressive action with an “impossible, unbeatbale” mindset and you will WIN.
You see Blair Wrestlers tearing it up above at my Underground Strength Gym. This was their first time at my gym and they attacked, attacked and attacked some more!
You gotta walk the talk baby!
Peace!

Watch this Video….and then read on my bruddahs….
Well, what can I say.
I’m STILL buzzin from what happened yesterday at The Underground Strength Gym in Edison, NJ.
Yesterday, The Blair Academy Wrestling Team took the 1 hr drive south, and arrived at The Underground Strength Gym at 3:22 PM.
Next week, the other half of The Blair Wrecking Crew will make the trek.
3 Cars rolled up.
Gladiators…ALL of them. Every single last 1 of them, straight up Gladiators.
We shook hands as they entered, a few used the rest room, the others started pummeling and moving their bodies around, prepping to go to War.
The music was pumpin….
Eminem
Metallica
Old School Van Halen (David Lee Roth!!)
Every single one of them had the eye of the tiger.
Have you ever been in a room where EVERYONE had the eye of the tiger?
I’ve seen rooms with a lot of motivated kids, but NEVER ALL OF THEM.
The workout itself was an all out battle….war….they fought for every inch of iron they pushed and pulled yesterday.
Every inch of movement they pushed their body through….pulling, pushing, sprinting…..
We had these Gladiators Ripping sandbags off the ground, onto their shoulders, over their heads….
These 12 Gladiators went through a hellish workout….together….
They never backed down….NEVER!
Not one of them showed signs of pain in the face, because if they did, they KNEW that it was a sign of weakness.
Some of these Gladiators were only 14 or 15 years young. But damn were they f**ing tough!
Physical toughness MUST be preceded by mental toughness. You MUST train your mind to endure pain beyond YOUR norms.
Coach Buxton has trained them, not just physically, but mentally.
The training they experience together has made them tougher individually AND as a team.
They have fought for ALL their inches, together.
On the mat AND off the mat you are supposed to fight for every inch….if you don’t fight for every inch, you miss out on opportunity.
Opportunity does NOT come to those who wait.
You make your own opportunities. PERIOD!
Some of you may or may not know, but I went through a lot of hell in my life…emotionally and physically.
I fought through depression in my teens and ever since the age of 13 I pushed myself through hellish workouts.
Not until the age of 18 did I finally escape the chains of my depression.
Still, I had MORE battles to fight through….hard fought battles….inch by inch.
The battles and pain eventually led me to the surgery table, and on that very day, before going under the blade, I vowed to do my absolute best to stop other combat athletes from the world around, to NOT experience all the physical and emotional pain I experienced. MY MISSION then & there was brought to light.
Today, my mission is Underground Strength Nation – I LOVE seeing the transformation people go through mentally AND physically through old school training and physical culture type workouts. It is a life changer.
I’ve received countless e mails on this, and many touch me deeply and bring tears to my eyes…. I’ve even had e mails and voice mails to my gym on how Underground Strength has saved them from suicide because they now had their OWN MISSION.
This mission led me to the intense studies of training combat athletes. It has led me to intensity in ALL I do, very much like Ultimate Warrior says, “Intensity for Life!”
Unfortunately, for me, I had to lose….I had to lose A LOT.
I’m not talking the loss of things like money, cars, clothes.
I’m talking about losing years of my life…
During my depression, it was like a dead man walking.
I wasn’t LIVING.
So you see bruddahs, this is why much of my videos, training and everything you see me doing here on the Blog is SOOOOO MUCH MORE than just fitness, lifting, working out, pushing iron…..
It’s about LIVING…and living life to the fullest!
My goal is NOT to just help you become a Bad Mother F**er physically, but also mentally….and, to be able to live your life by your own rules, and to achieve the success you have ALWAYS wanted.
No more dreaming of this or that, it’s ALL about living your dreams.
My Underground Strength Cert – NOT about training methods alone and that’s all…
Training methods alone will not create an AWESOME business…..
Instead, it’s about the mind power secrets I use, the motivation behind my hustle and how you can use it to your advantage, it’s about going for your dreams and NEVER giving up or backing down when you go for your dreams.
I’m willing to fight for every inch to achieve my dreams.
My mind has never been more powerful, as I have learned to cultivate my mind power and turn my mind into a deadly weapon, allowing me to WIN at EVERYTHING I do.
I’ll be revealing these methods soon 
Maybe you know all there is to know about life, going through hell, fighting for every inch and the harnessing the power of the mind.
I don’t know everything…I have much to learn!
But, this is exactly why I succeed, because I constantly seek out anything and everything I can to educate me AND fire me up.
Some people are too lazy…..
Too lazy to fight for every inch….
Too lazy to educate themselves….
Too lazy to seek new information to fire them up…..
I am NOT too lazy….
I understand that every piece of knowledge I acquire, it is like gaining another inch….
Because…..those inches that I gain…and you gain, are exactly what allows you to WIN in life.
The Gladiators of Blair Academy understand all about inches.
I understand the inches game.
Do you understand and, are you WILLING to fight for those inches?
Drop a comment and let me know.
Peace.

I took a 1 hr drive up north yesterday to train The Blair Academy Wrestling Team, NEVER in my life have I seen an entire room of athletes who:
- Focused 110%
- Listened AND made eye contact
- NEVER slacked
Notice I did not say 99% of the athletes, I said ALL of them.
This was quite the treat and of course, teams like this are not magically created, they are built, and Coach Buxton, The Head Wrestling Coach of Blair Academy, has built all these kids into highly motivated, highly dedicated, highly focused and VERY intense athletes.
Sure, a Prep school with a long standing tradition will get motivated kids knocking on their doors, BUT, this article is NOT about excuses, it’s about telling you that we need to raise the bar for athletes (and for yourself) AND set the standards WAY higher.
The bar has been set high for The Blair Wrestling Team.
Work ethic, commitment, intensity, good manners, being humble, sportsmanship….it’s ALL part of what is taught and expected at Blair Academy.
No more excuses for why someone is better or has the advantage. It should be expected for a competitive athlete to have the eye of the tiger.
The training I put these Blair wrestlers through was intense, with lots of Gymnastics drills and jumps for the warm up to help develop kinesthetic awareness and full body power. After all the Gymnastics movements and jumping, the workout began.
The workout included rope climbing and handstand push ups, battling ropes, kettlebells and sandbags.
I was beyond impressed with the intensity and tenacity I was witnessing. I’m used to being more motivated than those I coach, which, should NEVER be the case, but in the new era of athletes being more focused on video games, texting and facebook, some simply don’t have the discipline to be different than those who surround them.
Ironically, many people say the success of Blair Wrestling has to do with recruiting. I state otherwise: It has to do with the Coaching. The expectations are very high, in addition, outside the wrestling room, the faculty also has high expectations for these kids academically.
I do the same at The Underground Strength Gym. Excellence is expected, mediocrity of any sort is looked down upon.
As a former Physical Education teacher in a school setting, I remember seeing a bunch of lazy asses in the high school setting. Why were the kids lazy? Because they were allowed to be lazy.
Don’t wanna challenge yourself and run? No problem, you can walk.
Have we gotten so scared to push people that walking is considered challenging for a high school student?
I suggest reverting back to the days of Physical Culture where gymnastics apparatuses and rope climbing were common place.
When my Dad grew up in Romania he had Physical Education 3 x week minimum, each class was 2 hours long! AWESOME!
He was not even a teenager and they had him training in Gymnastics, wrestling, throwing small shot puts and light javelins. He also played hand ball, performed sprints and ran the hurdles.
All around fitness was encouraged and trained for. Older students performed Olympic Weightlifting and more aggressively competed in each of the sports.
When people ask me what style of training I use, in a nutshell, it is a mixture of Physical Culture and Powerlifting / Strongman. It’s not enough to be strong, overall athleticism must be developed.
This is why you see our athletes running, jumping, climbing, lifting big weights, and of course, using a variety of implements to accomplish our specific goal.
It’s time Raise the Bar.
Don’t you agree?
